This week's External Influence is the Reversed Spirit Guide Rabbit. When this guide normally appears, it is a symbol of rapid progression, a burst of creativity, and the ability to suddenly shift direction or attention. On the other hand, when we see Rabbit or Hare as a Reversed sign, it indicates that this week will be geared more towards the bulking of resources and preparation for the completion of plans. Use this week to accumulate the tools, knowledge, and practice you need to make that final push to complete your goals. Now is the time to build a solid, strong foundation beneath you in order to flourish and grow. Rather than changing your mind if a problem arises, dig in your heels and focus harder. Remind yourself why you want to reach this particular goal or creation. What fuels you? What moves you emotionally? Consider restarting any physical goals you have been putting to the side. Working out your physical body can often relieve any tensions or aggressions that may be building up mentally. If you feel frustrated that you don't have anything done, just remember that practice is important. Try new techinques, research new materials, or connect with others who may share a similar goal.

This week's Rune is Othala. This symbol is depicted as the womb and legs of the standing goddess which represents the inheritance that follows hereditary lines as well as family, sacred land, and DNA. This rune is seen as the wealth of a land that can never be sold, but, instead, handing down through generations. This is often connected with lands where generations would be buried, the land thus becoming connected with a family or community in a deeper way. Othala represents wealth that cannot be sold or given away. We use Othala when seeking to connect with sacred land, when searching for wisdom concerning the whole of life, and when we wish to use lessons of the past to learn for our future. Othala comes to remind us that everything is One. When connecting with this Oneness, we can gain wisdom and a wider perspective of our universe. Everything is connect through webs of energy and thought. Practice lucid dreaming and the interpretations of those dreams for it will be useful this week. What you dream will manifest, so be aware and careful of what you want.

This week's Internal Influence is the Spirit Guide Opossum. If you find yourself in a rough situation this week, just try to focus on the messages your instincts are telling you. This may include putting on a facade or behavior temporarily in order to deal with a situation you find yourself in. Use your ability to research to gather information pertaining to your situation this week. Build up back-up plans in order to ensure that if your first idea doesn't work, you have another avenue to try for success. Do not worry if you feel stretched just a bit thin this week. Look within yourself and find how to use your emotions for the best or when to put them aside. The Opossum Spirit Guide aids in teaching us when we must appear fearless or when the times to use submission or aggression are appropriate. Consider beginning study in Tai Chi or Aikido as a way to aid yourself in connecting your body and mind. Take time to learn how to feel your instincts.You have the instincts and skills within to aid you. Pull from your own skills in order to succeed!
