It's been six months since the last self portrait. I've actually been planning this since December/January but haven't been able to photograph it right. But it is still relevant, even more so now.

Analysis:
Fehu is both the day-to-day reality of our lives and the catalyst that awakens us to what lies beyond. It is whatever we think we are seeking, which frequently bears no resemblance to what we will eventually find. It is also our home, for after all our wanderings we will still need to attend to our physical needs and ground ourselves in the simple pleasures of home, family, and good work. -Runestones
I've returned to Fehu for aid with finances. Late last year Eloquent Mx Loki learned that their uni fees were being increased, so I set up a Go Fund Me to help out, and so many of our generous friends helped us out. This year my uni isn't offering scholarships, and whilst I wasn't guaranteed to be granted any, it would have been helpful to pay for my travel to and from uni. Also Mx Loki and I will most likely be moving in the second half of the year, so we're needing to save up money to help with that. It's also why Fehu is important right now; I'm in a transitional phase where I'm mentally ready to move and start a new routine, but I'm still here I still have my studies to worry about and still need to save up extra money for it. So I need to ground myself again in this moment, stop living in the future and live now.
