Knowledge, Judgment and Uncertainty

How do we find out what we need to know, notice where our knowing stops, and still make a decision? This longer trail runs through nine entries: two runes, three tarot cards and four passages from the Hávamál.

It begins with curiosity and listening, moves to the limits of what a person can or should know, and ends with deciding while some things stay hidden. The entries do not smooth over the tension: one reads what is hidden as favourable, another says to move carefully, and the Hávamál warns against being too wise. Hávamál stanzas are from Olive Bray’s 1908 translation. The connections are editorial choices made for this site, not a claim that the sources form one system.
