Although the word rune means mystery, whisper, or secret, it’s no secret why ancient people relied on them to glimpse the future and understand the present. Runes serve as an oracle-reading system or a form of divination that offers insights and guidance.
Typically made of stone or wood, runes display symbols from various runic alphabets. The oldest of these come from the Germanic runic alphabet.
There are many types of rune stones, depending on which alphabet you choose to follow. These include Anglo-Saxon Futhorc, Cirth, Elder Futhark, Gothic Runes, Hungarian Runes, Turkic, and Younger Futhork. Among these, the Elder Futhark alphabet has been gaining popularity. It is especially notable because it includes a “blank” rune.
Traditionally, runes are placed in a spread or pattern of several tiles for reading. Each rune symbol carries a specific meaning, which is interpreted together with how the runes are arranged. The number of symbols on each stone varies between 24 and 33, depending on the alphabet.
There are several effective methods for obtaining the answers you seek:
First, close your eyes, focus on your question, and select a rune from its pouch. The rune you choose will provide your answer.
Alternatively, concentrate on your question and gently toss all the runes from the bag onto a soft surface. Then, look for the runes that stand out and read their message.
You can also lay the runes out in a grid. Slowly pass your hand over them while concentrating on your question. Use your left hand if you are right-handed, or your right hand if you are left-handed. This practice helps you sense the rune that holds your answer.
Finally, place your mind in a neutral state—banishing worries and concerns. Draw three runes from the bag and line them up. The first rune reveals an answer related to a past situation, the second to the present, and the third to the future. This type of reading originates from Norse mythology, where three sisters determined the fate of human beings.
In addition to spreads, runes can be read in specific shapes for deeper insights.
For example, a diamond-shaped reading helps gain clarity about immediate outcomes. A cross-shaped spread is ideal for exploring your life path, while a circle-shaped layout reveals the romantic energy between two people. The Well of Wyrd, a reading directly tied to Norse mythology, is said to be where the tree of life receives its water and where Odin discovered the runes. Although complex and requiring study, this spread offers insight into multiple questions and probable futures.
Fortunately, you don’t need formal training to learn how to read runes. Most sets come with a booklet explaining the symbols and their meanings. Furthermore, many books offer detailed interpretations and historical background.
Ultimately, runes are just one of many divination tools that can assist you on life’s journey. You may find that this method resonates with you, so enjoy your discovery!
