I forgot to post this the other night... I had the eihwaz rune fall out when I was doing a reading so I meditated on it a bit...
So I meditated on the rune itself and ended up under a very large tree. The branches were long and slender and flexible. There were no leaves on this tree, but it was not dead. At first glance I thought it was dead, long gone. I could smell the earth very strongly and noticed that I was barefoot, digging my toes in the dirt as I love to do... The tree was alone, but there were other trees in the distance. Some had full leaves, some had sparse leaves, a few looked pretty dead. I wasn't sure if I should walk or what? So, I sat for a moment in front of the tree. A piece of bark was peeling off like parchment and when I picked it off, I noticed some lines. It looked like "something", a drawing, or a symbol but it wasn't finished yet. It frustrated me that I couldn't make out what it was. For some reason, I ate it. I chewed it up and swallowed it. It tasted like bread ( like communion at church when I used to go). I felt whole, my heart warmed and I stood up to see the leaves on the tree explode into growth and even flowers bloom. They were beautiful blue flowers. I stood under the tree as the wind blew and the petals rained overhead like a blue petal shower... It was absolutely breathtaking.
What appears to be dead or gone may be dormant or hidden. If I internalize that death or change then that can lead to new life and beauty... lol At least that is my take on this! It was a really powerful meditation... I could still taste the bread on my tongue.

Way cool. Taking in the body of the tree is powerful, indeed. Accepting the "unknowable" is more powerful, even still.

Wow. I would have to say what stuck me most was that it was a unquestioned action of faith, that eating it would make something happen and if that was a good or a bad thing wasn't really an issue. I don't know that's what I thought anyways :D
and to answer your comment on my blog, I think that one of the reasons I feel better durring the waning moon is because at an early age I found out that I can not have kids, so I have always felt a little cheated of the mother stage that should happen in my life, and I am just now starting to work pass that feeling.
