 Othala
Mundane Meaning - Property
Divinatory Meaning - Home and family, inheritance, inherited land, land of your birth, heirlooms, aid in spiritual journeys, source of abundance and increase.
Merkstave (reversed) - Poverty, slavery, dictatorship, loss of respect of family and friends, prejudice, self pity, bad karma, refusing to take care of family responsibilities.
Magickal Uses - For any working dealing with family and/or home, to ensure the completion of a project, to acquire property.
Analysis - Othala speaks heavily of home and while this home of course refers to the house we live in, do not forget the body we live in is also the home of our spirit. Without a home, we are but wanderers, and while some may walk this path occasionally, all eventually feel the need to seek a more definitive tie to a specific place with specific people around us.
