A Practical Guide to The Runes

Created by the Nordic and Germanic tribes of northern Europe, the runes began as a magickal system of pictographs representing the forces and objects in nature (such as Eihwaz, the yew, Uruz, the wild ox, and Kenaz, the hearth fire). This guidebook will help you discover the oracular nature of the runes and how to use them as a magickal tool for insight, protection, and luck. Practical and concise, this book includes complete descriptions of the twenty-four runes of the Elder Futhark (plus Wyrd, the blank rune), the differences between bind runes and rune scripts, four rune layouts, detailed rune interpretations (including reversed position readings), how to carve runes and create talismans, and the meanings and uses of the runes in magick. This informative book is in previously loved, very fine condition with very slight exterior shelf wear and a clean and crisp interior.
