Rune Magic at work
A few years ago -- and this may already be posted, so forgive me if I'm repeating, but I couldn't find it -- I was looking into the Elder Futhark a bit.
And I was considering the rune Dagaz that day.
Now it had been suggested that one should meditate deeply on the assigned meaning of the rune for several days, and I was on the third day of this one. I don't know how "deeply meditative" I got, but at least I was thinking about it when my brain wasn't otherwise needed.
Anyhow...we'd gone to break and come back and I set my machine to running and turned to get something -- and the lead (B****) walks in, looks at the moving machine, looks THROUGH me, turns and asks R. "Is [Zia] back from lunch yet?" in that "Ohboyohjoy, I get to yell at her!" tone.
R. gets this look on her face (told me later she thought B****'d lost it) and points at me, as if she's a bit too weirded-out at that moment to trust her voice. Keep in mind I'd been RIGHT THERE in plain view.
So B**** has to come up with some sort of reason it's my fault she wasn't paying attention.
I found out the next day that one of the properties of this rune is said to be that it can make one invisible.

OTOH, it's extremely useful when driving if one tends to exceed the speed limit!
