RE: 🎨 [D.I.Y] - 👝 🔮 🌌 Dainty Little Bag for Viking Runes + 3 Sessions with this Oracle (for free!) 🌌 🔮 👝 - By: @Tesmoforia.
I like your bag! Good luck making your runes! I am working on a set of ogham sticks myself, but it will take time depending on when/where I acquire the right wood. I'm actually making it out of local woods, so not necessarily the traditional trees of the ogham (though they're in there, if they grow locally), since I'll have more of a relationship with those trees that I know.
Oh Arceus, you are the first person in Steemit who I read them mention the "Ogham Sticks", I'm really excited that you know what those are and that you are also looking for a way to make your own by yourself; please tag me on the comments if you post photos of them so I can see them! I send you a lot of cheers, I don't have a doubt that they will come out wonderful since you are placing a lot of especial interest since the beginning by choosing the wood type 🔮 💕
:D Yeah I haven't seen too many Pagans (or otherwise amenable to our ways) people on Steemit yet, so I'm generally the Druid weirdo around here. ;) I'd like to see your runes, too!
I have three woods so far for my staves - and actually all three acquired the same way.
The first, was a Tree of Heaven (not a traditional Ogham, but everywhere around here because they're invasive - one right outside my balcony - trees I encounter a lot) that volunteered in a pot on my balcony. I let it grow all season and then yanked it come winter.
The second and third, were trees I was trying to grow on the balcony on purpose, that started out and then died last year: an apple and a maple. They are verrrrrrrry tiiiiiiiiiiiny sticks, but literally grown from seed in my balcony grove.
Now that three have started off that way, I'm wondering how many more failed starts are going to end up ogham sticks. I'm really trying to help the (non-invasive) trees grow sucessfully! XD But gardening is definitely a learning process, and trees are no different. :)
