Blind Spot Layout

 

 

Difficulty: Varies

This layout is used to enhance self-awareness. Questions about learning something about oneself or things that are hidden work very well with this layout, although no question is necessary.

1. This ogham displays the obvious identity, the part of oneself that is consciously known and projected to others.
2. This ogham indicates unconscious driving forces that neither the reader nor others are aware of about them, the great unknown. Nobody knows what this ogham means, at least not yet...
3. The part of oneself that is concealed, to keep others from discovering, is apparent in this ogham.
4. This is the Blind Spot. This is what was asked about, that which this reading should bring awareness of. The reader may wish to pay close attention to these mannerisms.

This ogham displays your obvious identity, the part of you that everyone knows.

Beith Blocked

• Tree/Plant: Birch
• Kenning: ‘Brightest of Trees’

The gateway of renewal stands before you—but you refuse to walk through it. Beith reversed warns of clinging to sorrow, old failures, or toxic familiarity. No blessing can be placed into a hand already full of ashes. You may resist endings because they demand grief; you may resist beginnings because they demand courage. There is no shortcut. Shed the skin. Burn the past. Walk nude into the new.

• Spiritual Lesson: Purification requires surrender; beginnings require mourning.
• Reflective Question: What old story must I finally lay to rest to allow my rebirth?
• Affirmation: ‘I welcome the purity of the unknown.’

 

 

 

 

This ogham shows unconscious driving forces that neither you nor your company is aware of about you. This is the Great Unknown.

Eabhadh Blocked

• Tree/Plant: Aspen
• Kenning: ‘Stone of Memory’

When Eabhadh is blocked, you're drowning in ambiguity or paralysed by what can't be understood. But not all truths are meant to be solved—some are meant to be witnessed.

• Spiritual Lesson: Some mysteries are meant to be honoured, not solved.
• Reflective Question: What silence am I afraid to name?
• Affirmation: ‘I honour the nameless and remember the unsaid.’

 

 

 

 

The secrets you keep from others are shown by this ogham.

Duir Blocked

• Tree/Plant: Oak
• Kenning: ‘Door to Strength’

Blocked Oak crumbles into tyranny or weakness. You may either dominate when you should lead, or abdicate when you should stand firm. Know the difference between stubborn pride and rightful authority. Strength unused is strength lost. Step up—or step aside.

• Spiritual Lesson: Power without purpose is decay.
• Reflective Question: Where must I claim authority—or surrender pride?
• Affirmation: ‘I am the door that withstands all storms.’

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is your Blind Spot. This is what you asked about - what you wished to be made aware of by this reading.

Ur Blocked

• Tree/Plant: Heather
• Kenning: ‘Flower of Dreams’

Blocked Heather is escapism, false hope, or emotional dissociation. Dreams without grounding become fantasy. Tend your dreams like gardens, not castles in the air. Hope is sacred—not to be wasted on illusions.

• Spiritual Lesson: Dreams demand roots as much as wings.
• Reflective Question: What fragile dream do I need to protect and nourish?
• Affirmation: ‘I dream with rooted hope.’
