Runes for beginners (in three parts).

Runes are a serious tool that requires understanding, respect and reverence. Runes are history and traditions. In this section we will analyze what, how and where, so that everything works out and we don’t have to pay anything for it.

You can apply runes:

a) To yourself
b) To another person
c) In the photo
d) For water, food, soap, cream, etc.
e) On a blank sheet of paper or other material.

Condition: The material must be such that you can wipe or destroy the runes.
It is not recommended to apply runes in the form of a tattoo or carve them on a multi-ton stone slab.

There are several rules for applying to yourself:

1) If we influence ourselves(we are looking for money, work, losing weight, getting treatment, etc.) - then the runes are applied
to the left side of the body or in your photo.

2) If we influence others from ourselves(we create confusion, love spell, drying spell, etc.) -
to the right side of the body. Or maybe in his photo. If there is no photo, draw schematically (stick-stick cucumber, here comes a little man), write his name, visualize as much as possible the person you are working for and apply the runes.

The specific location doesn't matter. Wherever you can reach (without fanaticism)

3) Medicinal formulas can be applied to food or water.
They are cut out on food. And they draw on the water with something - a toothpick, a knife, etc.

4) It is possible to apply runes to bath foam, soap, cream, comb, etc.

Important to remember!

Regarding: WHAT TO WRITE

Remember: The main thing is that the runes are on the carrier.
You can write with a pen, pencil, pastel, paint, scratch with a nail, cross-stitch, etc.
In extreme situations, you can draw with your finger on foggy glass, or draw on water with a stick...
If we are treating with runes, then it can be applied to the sore spot or on the wrist with saliva.
The main thing is that the runes are in the right place, you know about them and specify them correctly.

Regarding color - I don’t make divisions by color and write all the runes in one color - black, but I can also use blue - it depends on which pen is closer (just kidding).
Runes are a powerful magical tool. They themselves contain power, enormous power. And this power does not have any color, it is not black and not white, it is not gray or crimson. Strength is strength. Power is the current in the socket, the current is completely indifferent to where it flows and what to set in motion - an electric chair or a kettle.

Therefore, runes themselves do not belong to either white or black magic. Runes are runes, but the operator (the person weaving the formula or ligature) can give them the color he wishes.

Runes can attract wealth, or you can take away luck, you can heal, or you can send death.

Runes are also letters of the alphabet, there are few of them, only 24 in Futhark. And from the letters you can form a variety of words: love and hate, life and death, dawn and midnight, laughter and blood, joy and sacrifice.

There is nothing bad in the runes, everything bad, like the good, is concentrated in us, in the people who were given the instrument - the Runes.

The question is whether to burn or not to burn written runes.

If you applied runes to yourself, and not only to yourself, your intention must specify the validity period of the runes, i.e. to say “the runes begin to work from the moment of application / tomorrow morning / when Petya appears within sight / something of his own” - this is called activating.

And to designate the condition under which the runes finish their work “the runes stop working when... they are washed off the body/the intention is fulfilled in full/in 3 days at such and such a time/its own...”

Runes can act in different ways, we are all different and runes affect us differently. Therefore, I always, I emphasize again, you should always have the opportunity to “turn off” the formula!

When the result specified in the intention is achieved, the formula must be washed off; if it was applied to a photo/paper/wood, burn it; on metal/leather/non-flammable substance, break/cut it and throw it into running water or bury it. All this is done with words of gratitude and respect for the runes, we thank them for their work, for the result obtained, and let them go.
Polite, correct, respectful and most importantly - sincere. Then they will help with pleasure.

Cleaning with runes

When applying any global formulas, for example, “meeting your destiny”, “finding a new job”, etc. and then when you feel that there is a lot of negativity towards you, that there is someone who actively wishes you bad things, that health problems do not go away, no matter how much you are treated, that you seem to be walking in circles or knocking only on closed doors – you need to throw off the accumulated negativity from yourself and your life. And this is done by cleaning. Cleaning can be runic, or maybe in other ways.
If after the cleansing your sensations have not improved, you have not felt better, you have not seen new opportunities, or simply everything remains the same as it was before the cleansing, then you need not just cleaning, but diagnostics.

How to measure formulas? (disclaimers)

A reservation is 80% of the successful operation of runes. The clause is drawn up according to a standard scheme and pronounced in a low voice.

Measure very carefully! The runes are straight, they don’t understand or don’t want to understand our sentiments and delights, read here, don’t read here, but here they wrapped the fish. The runes do what they are asked to do.

Every time you work with runes, it’s a comprehensive assessment of the situation and its elaboration down to the details! Then the runes will respect you and willingly help you.

The elm/formula is the energetic matrix, and the intention is the matrix's program of action. Therefore, when cleaning, you should not use general or general words and expressions, such as “clean out all the bad things,” “get rid of all the negativity,” etc.

With such an intention, you can easily end up, for example, in a hospital, or be fired from your job, and there is nothing to be offended by the runes, they just fulfilled what was ordered! They said - remove all the bad things - and at that time you had a slight inflammation of appendicitis, which, perhaps, would have gone away on its own, but the runes carry out the order: inflamed appendicitis is bad, which means it needs to be removed - you are in the hospital on the operating table. We wanted it well, but it turned out - as always.

Or another intention - “to remove everything that prevents me from finding my purpose/path in life” - and that’s it... You’re going to Africa to save the world from AIDS... or maybe this is your purpose??? Therefore, be careful with cleansing and especially with runes.

How to measure runes correctly?

“With this runic formula, I cleanse and remove from myself all the negativity received both from one person and from a group of people, both acquaintances and strangers, both from entities, beings and programs of an energy-informational structure known to me and unknown. Everything that has a negative connotation or carries a negative program leaves me without causing harm to my health, my destiny, my loved ones and my family, everything that brings positive changes to my life. Let it be so!"

Scheme of work:

1.decided on the desired result and the specific object of influence of the runes.
2. picked up a runic formula or wrote it yourself.
3. wrote an intention for the formula or found the desired intention.
4. applied runes to themselves/paper/photo/…
5. After application, we spoke the intention and named the formula according to the runes (runes love and appreciate respect).
6. activated the formula, stipulating when and how the formula will end. Clarifications - you can add that the runes work without harm to mental and physical health, or lifestyle, or specify the exact timing of the work, in a word, any wishes.
7. If the formula is applied for a long time, then do not forget to remember the formula approximately once every 2 weeks, tracing it with your finger and repeating your intentions.
8. after receiving what you want, destroy the runes (burn the photo/paper) or wash them off the body, with gratitude and respect.

QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF RUNES:

1. Is it necessary to perform a ritual to apply a runic formula?

No, not necessarily. Any ritual actions are intended primarily to concentrate consciousness and form the vector of application of the practitioner’s will.

2. Is it necessary to turn to the Gods to apply the runic formula?

No, not necessarily. The gods should not be disturbed over trifles, and the Runes themselves are a fairly powerful egregor that can ensure the effectiveness of work.

3. Is there a concept of ransom in runic magic and how is it done?

No, in runic magic there is no concept of ransom. However, when turning to the Gods of the Northern Tradition for help, it is customary for them to bring gifts or offerings (the qualitative composition of the offerings may vary depending on the chosen Deity and the conditions of the operator’s action). In other cases, there can be no “payments,” “repayments,” or “salaries.”

4. Where should the runic formula be applied - on yourself, in a photo, or to make an amulet?

It all depends on the subject, object and mechanism of action of the formula:
— it makes sense to apply formulas to a person’s body that will act only on himself — formulas for health, attractiveness, etc., where he is simultaneously the subject and the object of influence.

- on a photo of another person it makes sense to apply formulas that will, accordingly, act only on him, and where the mechanism of influence is closed on the “object”.

- “broad plan” formulas, in which the work of the formula is limited to the operator (the subject of influence), but is addressed to an unlimited circle of potential subjects, or if these subjects can change, it is better to use them with the creation of “objects of power” (for example, amulets).
Some formulas can be used in several ways, but with a corresponding adjustment of intent.

5. How to apply formulas to household items, decorations, etc.? How to apply formulas to yourself?

The formula is applied in the same way as on any other medium - the same way as regular text is written. If the carrier has an external and internal side, and there is a need to apply the formula to the internal side, you should do the same thing - considering the internal side of the object as a “working plane”. Inverted runes will not act like... By design they are applied straight.

When applying the formula “to yourself,” write the runes as if another person were writing them on your body.

6. Is it possible to use a piece of paper with a surname or initials instead of a photo?

Can. Any symbolic connection to a person is suitable - provided that the operator of the influence has a sufficient degree of concentration.

7. Is it possible to use a visa to a runic formula instead of describing the action of each rune included in the formula?

It is possible - the working principle should reflect the mechanism of action of the formula, incl. and the runes included in it. You can do without a visa - with a simple formulation of intention (a reservation). However, this formulation must be clear and potentially implementable with the help of the runes involved.

8. What visas can be used for runic formulas?

Any visa is good (from the point of view of runic magic, not versification) if it correctly formulates the operator’s intention and clearly sets the task for the working runes. In other words, the wording could be something like this:

- appeal to the Runes, i.e. a visa of an invocative nature (“Runes, serve me and do this and that to the enemy”);

— appeal to the object of influence, i.e. spell of an incantatory nature (“From now on you will be such and such and such and such will happen to you, you will do such and such”);

— replacement of the object of influence, i.e. The visa is of a hypnotic nature (the visa reflects, and you voice the state of the object that will be achieved as a result of the action of the formula.

These options are alternative; it is not logical to combine all three types in one hang.
The same applies to the usual formulation of intention, which must be carried out taking into account the chosen mechanism of action of the formula and its carrier.

9. When applying the formula to yourself or to an object of power, if the formula is on your hand, which hand is better to choose?

Left hand is responsible for the past and directs the impact on itself, is the “receiver”.
Right hand is responsible for the future and directs the impact to the outside world, is “broadcasting”.

10. What photographs are suitable for applying formulas - where the subject of influence is depicted himself or joint photos?

It depends on the chosen formula and the task at hand. If the impact is “spot”, it is better to take an individual photo.

11.What color should I apply the runic formula?

The color of the formula, like the coloring element itself, is not important for Rune’s work. If for you personally the intended action (for example, receiving money using a runic formula) is associated with some color (for example, green - the color of the dollar) - you can use it.

Applying runes horizontally or vertically is also not important.

Remember!

The runes work in a cycle, that is, they reach a maximum in positive influence and, like a pendulum, fly back. Your task is to destroy the formula immediately after the result.

P.S. Next time I will give some examples of rune clauses. Good luck to everyone in their creativity!

Angular, slightly elongated unusual letters - runes, arouse the interest of many people. What is this anyway? The alphabet of the ancestors of modern Germans, English, Swedes and Norwegians or magical symbols for rituals? In this article we will answer these questions and find out how to use runes for beginners.

Excursion into history

Most northern European tribes used it for two purposes:

• as phonetic signs,
• as a system of pictograms.

In the first case, runes were used to write words and read notes. But in the second, these symbols served as a means of communication with the other world. With the help of runes they influenced the weather, treated the sick and even improved their financial condition. These symbols were written on weapons, tables, houses, and in general, wherever possible. But not everyone possessed this secret knowledge.

Nowadays, getting the necessary information is not difficult. And therefore, fortune tellers and sorcerers are so eager to learn rune magic. For beginner esotericists, this is a wonderful way to replenish their knowledge. They seem to open a window into a new, interesting and unusual world. Those who begin to study runes note that miracles begin to happen in their lives. Their intuition works better. In addition, having learned this skill, you can help not only yourself, but also your family and friends.

There are two completely different ways to use these unusual symbols. Firstly, with their help you can improve your health, remove damage, and resolve family issues. And, in addition, there are fortune telling using runes. They allow you to remember the past, look at the present and lift the curtain of the future. But learning runes for beginners does not begin with this. First you need to get to know them better.

Types of runes

There is an incredible number of different magic symbols:

• Scandinavian,
• Danish,
• gothic,
• Germanic,
• Swedish-Norwegian.

In ancient times, each tribe used its own runes. But nowadays the Scandinavian ones are the most popular. Runes for beginners can be found in the following image.

You can make them yourself or purchase them in a store. In addition, unlike Tarot cards, runes can be a wonderful gift for relatives and friends who are interested in esotericism.

Activation of runes

In order for the phonetic signs of our ancestors to acquire magical power, you first need to get to know them. In addition, you need to activate the runes. For beginners this is not at all difficult. It is necessary to take each rune, carefully examine it, feel what kind of energy it emits and read what it means. This should be done with each symbol. At the same time, you should not rush. Experienced esotericists say that every day should be dedicated to one rune.

It's another matter if you make a magical instrument yourself. In this case, activation occurs automatically. It’s just that when you make each rune, you should say its name and read its meaning.

Man and magical symbols must create one whole. Only in this case will the runes be able to answer all your questions and help in solving them.

Rune meanings (1-12)

So, almost all esotericists use Scandinavian symbols. These are 24 completely different runes. They differ in appearance, meaning and energy. Some of them are more aggressive, they seem to blow cold. Such runes have negative interpretations. Others are warm or even hot. Let's look at the first 12 runes.

1. Feu is one of the most famous symbols. This is the rune of wealth, protection and achievement. In love matters, it symbolizes former partners and relationships.
2. Uruz is a symbol that denotes strength and victory. This is the rune of health, power, it allows you to realize all your plans and dreams.
3. Turisaz - critical situation, problems, destruction. This symbol means that you should carefully consider the current circumstances.
4. Ansuz is a rune that means expectation, wisdom, and is literally translated as “mouth.” Can be interpreted as an exam, interview, important negotiations, in love - a heartfelt conversation.
5. The Raido symbol symbolizes the road, travel. But besides this, the rune can also mean spiritual movement and self-improvement.
6. Kano - fire or torch. The rune symbolizes energy, power, strength. The interpretation has some similarities with Uruz. But at the same time, this symbol indicates that a favorable period will soon come, and this will happen without any effort on the part of the person. In love fortune telling, it symbolizes a man.
7. Gebo is a fairly common rune. It originates in the meaning of “gift”. This is one of the most favorable signs, meaning happiness, luck, joy. This rune is very often used in the preparation of special formulas for well-being and wealth.
8. Quite often compared to the Wheel of Fate Tarot card. Indeed, their meanings are almost identical. This symbol can have both a positive and negative interpretation. As a rule, the rune indicates that everything is going in the right direction and the person has nothing to worry about. With negative runes nearby, Vunyo can be interpreted as stagnation in business, impossibility of advancement.
9. Hagalaz (Hagall) - literally translated “hail”. This is a symbol of spontaneous destruction, the collapse of hopes and plans. It warns that the person is no longer in full control of the situation.
10. Nautiz is a rune that not only shows the situation, but also explains what to do. The literal translation is “take your time.” Most often, the rune falls out when a person has many problems in life. The symbol gives advice: “You need to be patient.” Indeed, everything that happens in life is not accidental, and one must humbly accept the trials of fate.
11. Isa - depicted as a vertical stick. And this is no coincidence. It seems to show that a period of stagnation has arrived. You should put all matters aside and look at them from a different perspective. At this time, you will not be able to achieve success, but at the same time nothing threatens you.
12. Yer translates as "harvest". The rune symbolizes receiving finance, but not just winning the lottery. This is a well-deserved reward. Although, the rune does not always indicate material values. Let's say a guy spent a very long time trying to win a girl's favor. If Yer falls out, it means he succeeded and she will finally pay attention to him.

Rune meanings (12-24)

Among the next 12 runes you can also find both positive and negative ones. But you need to understand that in each specific case the value may change and depend on various factors. If you are wondering where to start studying runes, then you should study these interpretations first:

1. Eyvaz is a rune that means that any obstacle can be overcome. The time has come to gather strength and act decisively.
2. Perth is a symbol of grief and disappointment. Probably, some events will make a person very worried. In love fortune telling, it can mean a breakup. Sometimes it shows that some secret will soon be revealed to a person.
3. Algiz is the rune of change. An event will occur in a person’s life that will completely change his life. This is most likely something good and kind, perhaps the appearance of a new person in your life. In addition, it has the meaning of protection and amulet.
4. Soulu is a fairly positive rune. It means an energy boost, the ability to overcome any obstacles. It can also be used for cleansing with runes. For beginners, this will be a great way to strengthen your spiritual strength.
5. Teyvaz - rivalry, competition. May mean competition. In some cases, it is interpreted as the need to deal with difficulties.
6. Berkana is a symbol of family, birth. May represent a mother or children. In the professional sphere it means career growth. And in love - improving relationships.
7. Evaz is another rune of change. But in this case it still concerns moving to a new home and changing jobs.
8. Mannaz - symbolizes secrecy and modesty. If a person is planning some kind of business, then these are the qualities he will need. The rune also means that you cannot cope alone, and more influential patrons will be required to successfully complete the matter.
9. Laguz is a symbol of intuitive knowledge, hidden abilities. Only his own intuition can help a person solve a problem.
10. Inguz - successful resolution of cases, gifts. It can mean meeting your soulmate, new feelings and emotions. Soon one stage of life will end and another will begin.
11. Otal - prosperity, family wealth, buying new things or furniture. It can simply mean money (their presence).
12. Dagaz - overcoming obstacles, the possibility of career growth, successful endeavors. The rune reveals to a person that great potential is hidden in him. Even if he has a lot of problems now, he can solve them by resorting to his internal reserve of strength.

Odin - the power of rock

In some fortune telling there are 25 runes. And the last of them is Odin. This is an empty rune with no graphic image on it. It is believed that she is personified with fate and fate. If it appears in fortune telling, it means that everything that is destined for a person will definitely happen. The rune indicates that the current situation is under the control of higher powers and cannot be changed.

In addition, there is another meaning. Odin can be interpreted as a big change. For better or for worse? Everything will depend on the symbols that appear nearby. Cleaning with runes for beginners is carried out with the help of Odin, because the absence of symbols is the easiest to imagine. But it should be understood that this is not just emptiness - it is a transition to another dimension, to something that is beyond the understanding of many people.

Principle of operation

When learning everything about runes for beginners, a logical question arises: how do they work? Although this information is not important for most practices, it is advisable to become familiar with it. It should be understood that if you do not understand the principle of operation of runes, this does not mean that they will not work. Despite the fact that many people do not know how televisions work, this does not stop them from enjoying their favorite TV shows. The same principle applies to esotericism.

In the material world, we often encounter objects about which we know practically nothing. It turns out that each of them has special energy (vibrations). Any object interacts with space and it does not matter at all whether it is animate or not. Any pebble or twig carries a charge of energy (positive or negative).

By the same principle, people choose their jewelry. Some are favorable for them, while others, on the contrary, have destructive power. So, on each rune (except Odin) a certain symbol is drawn. He creates a certain field around himself. At the same time, the rune interacts with cosmic forces and gives a person the necessary predictions.

While learning everything about runes for beginners, you should also understand that the pictogram system is not ideal. It takes time to adapt to it.

As for runic formulas for improving health, removing damage and the like, the principle of operation of runes is the same. A set of certain symbols triggers energetic changes in a person’s surrounding world. But at the same time, a lot depends on a person’s abilities, his aura, and the power of thought. It is for this reason that before you start working with runes, you should make sure that you have certain magical knowledge and successfully apply it in practice.

As we have already found out, there are two main types of working with Scandinavian symbols:

1. Drawing up formulas for healing, wealth, removing damage, attracting the opposite sex, etc.
2. Fortune telling with runes.

Where to start studying depends only on what goals a person is pursuing. Nevertheless, many experienced esotericists recommend starting with drawing up formulas. If within a month you see that they really work, fortune telling with runes will be as easy as shelling pears.

So, in general, you can create a runic formula to fulfill any desire. And, of course, there are certain rules for this. For beginners, the magic of runes has not yet been revealed so much that experienced esotericists recommend that they use ready-made formulas.

As can be seen in the image, in some cases the use of other runes is allowed. For example, in the formula “Universal protective shield” the first and third symbols are Thurisaz, and in the center, previously unknown to us, Tivaz. This is one of the runes of the Germanic alphabet, meaning warrior, god. So, extreme symbols destroy, dispel everything bad in a person’s life with the help of the middle rune. This formula is a good amulet against magical attacks, gives strength of spirit, and allows you to withstand any test.

Where to wear amulets

Now you know where to start studying runes. But besides this, you should also learn how to use them correctly. Runic formulas are amulets that can be worn on the body or clothing, and also written on objects and photographs. It all depends on the symbols themselves, as well as the person’s intentions. If something hurts, you can write the formula on an adhesive plaster and stick it in the right place.

In addition, amulets on the wrist, shoulder and neck showed high effectiveness. In this case, the choice is limited only by personal preferences and comfort. It is advisable that the runes are not visible to strangers. In addition, you cannot talk about your goals while the symbols are working. If, after all, someone notices runic symbols on you, say that it’s just like that.

Fortune telling with runes

This is a great way to look into the future, find out what worries a person, and what dangers warn him. There are quite a few different fortune telling, but beginners should start working with runes with the simplest ones. Before doing this, you should tune in to the question that worries you and discard all extraneous thoughts. It is advisable that there are no unnecessary objects on the table where the layout will be performed. The runes should be spread out on a red cloth and mixed well. You can read prayers over them. Mentally ask a question that interests you and take one rune. Its meaning will be the answer to your question. In addition, in some fortune telling, the inverted meaning is used. That is, if in the direct form, for example, the rune means happiness, in the inverted form it means grief.

Meditations

There is another area in which runes can be used. So, meditation is another great way to improve your health or achieve the desired result. For example, your goal is to lose weight. To do this, take a photo of yourself (it’s best if it’s a photo before you gained extra pounds, not after). Draw a circle in the center and place the desired formula.

Now you should lie down or sit comfortably so that the image is constantly before your eyes. Look at the photo for a while and think about how your body will soon transform. Then you should close your eyes and imagine how the energy of these symbols envelops you. They seem to penetrate your body and mind. These runes should always be before your eyes.

Just starting a meditation does not mean that at the end of it a few extra pounds will be gone. In fact, runes change consciousness, give willpower, and inspire. You'll feel energized and energized, and you'll likely change your eating habits or join a gym. Cleaning from negativity with runes for beginners occurs in the same way.

Runes cannot simply take away extra pounds or remove damage, but they can help you move in the right direction. Simply meditating and waiting for a miracle will not bring any results. At the same time, one cannot ignore the sensations that arise after such meditations. For example, a person uses a runic formula to find a job. At a certain moment, the thought occurs to him that he needs to check the vacancies on the site again. Most likely, this feeling appeared for a reason. If a person listens to his inner feelings, within a couple of days he will get the job he dreams of.

When using this method, you must believe in its power. Do not ask the runes how to start acting, but feel their strength and energy, which will definitely help you. Now you will definitely gather your strength and act.

Nowadays, most people know what runes are, but ten to fifteen years ago there was very little public knowledge about them. Now there is a lot of information, but how much of it is useful - not all beginners can appreciate it. Runes are an Old Norse alphabet that has been used for magical purposes since ancient times. Runes are widely used by esotericists, some adhere to tradition, while others create new bizarre forms of runic practices, so it is difficult for a beginner to understand this.

Practitioners who encounter runes and the Northern Tradition for the first time are concerned with the same question: how and where to start? From purchasing or making a set of runes for fortune telling, mastering this very fortune telling, getting acquainted with ancient texts and Scandinavian mythology? The right thing to do is to do both at the same time. If the practitioner has no experience in fortune telling, then he will have to learn this as well. Of course, you need to remember the names of the Elder Futhark runes and their meanings. Then you can get acquainted with Scandinavian mythology, as retold by modern authors, and only then study the key texts of the Northern Tradition: first of all, the Elder and Younger Eddas, the runic poems.

It is advisable to remember all the Scandinavian gods: legends about them, mentions in ancient texts, which of them is friends or enemies with whom, what signs each deity has or what may indirectly indicate it. The study of runes must certainly include immersion in the mythology of the northern peoples. It will be great to make your first runic set with your own hands, with some effort and creativity.

Ethics in working with runes

The society of ancient Scandinavia adhered to a radically different morality than the Christian one characteristic of our society. Let's remember the Vikings and human sacrifices to the gods. Therefore, the ethics of a particular magical work is determined by its author. If he is able to do something with the help of magic (even a love spell or damage) and knows how to use runes correctly, then he has every right to do so.

How runic amulets and runes work

The symbols or formulas depicted on the medium already have power in themselves. It is enough to activate them for them to start working. Activation is done by the four elements, breath and blood. Traditionally, runes were carved on wood or stone, sometimes painted (with human or animal blood, as well as with ocher, the composition of which is closest to blood). Many practitioners simply draw runes on paper, explaining that it is made of wood, and therefore is a completely suitable medium. Indeed, this is so, but it is worth remembering that the runes were “cut”; a knife was traditionally used in the process.

How rune bundles are built

The clear rules by which galdrasts or formulas are compiled are not reliably known, although with a high probability they existed. If you look at what authentic ancient galdrasts look like, you can see that the runes are connected through common parts, one can be the main one and larger than the others in size, and the rest are, as it were, secondary, of equal size. There are formulas simply written in a row - runetains.

There are many original works on the Internet with runes repeated many times and a complex pattern reminiscent of patterns for crocheting napkins. This is unnecessary: ​​you don’t need to repeat the rune many times in order to put enough of its power into the work. If the operator does not know how to empower one symbol, several will not help him. The exception is the well-known formulas, for example, three fehu, four thurisaz. In them, each sign has a different property and purpose. For example: “I cut the runes, thurs and three more: lust, madness and anxiety.”

Should I trust runes?

Ignorance of how runes work and how to use them in your magical work, of course, gives rise to mistrust. However, without this nothing will work at all. To understand how to work with runes, a beginner does not need detailed instructions, but immersion in Scandinavian mythology and tradition, reading the Elder and Younger Eddas, and runic poems. You need to feel the runes with your heart. They are often harsh in their answers, like a close and devoted, but slightly stern friend. We must remember that runes came from time immemorial, having proven their magical power and unconditional benefits for humans. So, rather, the question needs to be posed this way: can you trust yourself, as a practitioner, in your knowledge and experience.

How to master the rune technique

In order to start using runes for your own purposes, you need to immerse yourself in the Northern Tradition, establish contact with the gods in order to become “one of our own” for the Scandinavian egregor. The better you can do this, the stronger any magical work will be. The technology of fortune telling and cutting runes is simple, even a beginner can master it. It is important to establish a deep connection with the Nordic gods on a spiritual level, understand how people lived in ancient Scandinavia, and adhere to the same principles of life. For example, to be brave and resilient. It is also important not to be afraid of life’s difficulties, but to be sincere in relationships with people, to say directly what you think, to value friendship, and to be hospitable. To better understand how to achieve this, you can read, for example, “Speeches of the High One.”

Then you can develop fortune telling skills and cut out runic staves. They are made for a variety of purposes. Ancient northern magicians used magic to heal and attract wealth, win love, protect against enemies, treat animals, and obtain a good harvest. Therefore, one should not limit oneself only to spiritual goals, such as gaining wisdom and developing vision. A wise and insightful magician will take care of earthly things first.

How to use runes without harming yourself

There are several rules, following which you can be sure that the study of northern magic will not end badly for a beginning practitioner. Many novice magicians think that runes are dangerous, but this is not so. Yes, their impact is really very strong. There is a high threshold for entering the tradition, a set of rules and a vector for working on oneself. To avoid harming yourself, you need to follow safety precautions. Then everything will be fine and results will be achieved, but no one will get hurt, including the practitioner himself.

• “Runes should not be cut by those who do not understand them,” this is the most ancient and main rule. It is necessary to study the runes themselves and the Northern Tradition in detail before starting practical work.
• Working with runes is always an appeal to the gods. You need to be grateful for your work - leave gifts. If this is not done, the god or ace can choose his own payment for help, and one that the practitioner will not like.
• Some practitioners believe that it is necessary to paint carved runes and staves with one’s own blood, but this can only be done for “their own,” family members, loved ones and loved ones. But not for casual acquaintances, and not for clients.
• You cannot work without preliminary diagnostics and a plan for the result of the work.
• It is forbidden to “do good” to people with magic without a request.
• You need to really monitor your capabilities and not take on everything.

Diagnostics with runes for beginners

Fortune telling with runes was first mentioned by Tacitus. According to his testimony, the ancient magicians of the north threw wooden sticks with symbols carved on them (presumably runes) onto the canvas, taking them out of the bag, and made predictions about the future based on the location of these sticks. Modern runologists do the same. You can get a special canvas for throwing runes on which to embroider, for example, Scandinavian motifs, as well as a beautiful bag for storing a runic set. You need to throw while standing, away from you, with the canvas spread out in front of you on the floor. For one question, take several runes, ideally 3 - 5. First, those that are closer are interpreted, and then those that are farther away. You cannot guess more than once on the same question if you don’t like the answer. It is advisable not to ask many questions at once, 2-3 are enough.

If you do not have the necessary skills, knowledge and the ability to make a rune set yourself, you can buy runes for beginners, preferably from a master, and not in an esoteric store. In extreme cases, these will do, but then you need to accustom them to your own energy for some time, and then devote them with the help of the four elements. Such a tool will be “live” and working.

Studying Runes

You have all heard about runes and probably know what they are. Let me remind you that runes are ancient symbols that were used for writing and in magic by the ancient Germanic peoples. Currently, there is a version that the runes are even more ancient than recently thought. According to myths, runes originated in Scandinavia, they came in the form of knowledge to God Odin, when he was cheerful, pierced by his own spear, upside down.

It seems to me that the runes were used by the Hyperboreans (many facts indicate this), whose descendants are the Russian people.

So, let's start studying:

It is officially believed that there are 24 Scandinavian runes, but there is another 25 empty rune - the “Rune of Odin”.

Rune designation

Rune of Odin

The empty rune ODIN is a modern addition to the Futhark system.
Ralph Bloom in The Book of Runes writes: “This rune symbolizes complete trust and is an exciting proof of your direct insight into your own destiny.”
ODINA is the cosmic force of rock.
In its meaning, it is close to the Sanskrit concept of karma: we must be responsible for our actions, good and bad. When this rune appears during fortune telling, something unusual will certainly happen to you. Whether this will be good or bad for you depends on your past behavior.
ODIN is not a number or a pictographic symbol that, during fortune telling, would indicate its meaning to us. When interpreting, one should proceed from its connection with the surrounding runes. The fact that it has neither a digital nor a graphic sign makes it actually not a rune. The idea it expresses is not specific and is not related to our world. ODINA belongs to a completely different dimension than other runes, and often indicates that the issue at hand is in the hands of the gods.
It is very convenient, especially during meditation, to see it as a symbol of emptiness. When its empty surface falls out, imagine a passage - a gateway to another dimension - where Something and Nothing exist simultaneously. The gods speak through this rune.
ODIN shows: you can’t escape fate. It allows for two interpretations and therefore can portend both good and bad. If during fortune telling this rune falls in a prominent place, then you have to do something that will change your life. The one who pulls it out is often horrified (aren’t we most afraid of what we understand least?). Believe in yourself and trust in the gods.
ONE does not always indicate formidable or fateful changes in your life. Usually it indicates that something is currently hidden from your view. Sometimes it is a secret that should remain unsolved for your own good.
If this rune appears when fortune telling about another person, this means one thing: you should not know anything more about this person.
Keep track of which runes surround the ODIN rune. They may provide the key to understanding it. Pay special attention to the next and last runes.
So, for example, if the ODIN rune is pulled out together with GEBO or another rune indicating love, then this means that a new wonderful feeling will enter your life. Perhaps it will be a reward for the virtuous deeds you have performed in the past. When ONE is in the final position, this situation often indicates that either you are not currently able to cut your Gordian knot, or the decision is in the hands of Fate.
In general, the ODIN rune is the embodiment of the serious concept of “to each his own.” Everyone has a different idea of ​​how fate manages a person’s life. Therefore, we need to understand what forces move us; only then, when guessing, will we be able to correctly and accurately interpret the meaning of a given rune.

For the Scandinavians, this rune meant cattle. In ancient times, the measure of a man's wealth was cattle. Its presence determined the social position in the tribe and helped the family survive. Through hard work and careful care, the number of livestock increased, and the owner became richer.
Over time, changes occurred in society. Gold and other metals became objective indicators of wealth. However, the FEU rune remained a symbol of acquired wealth - watered with seven sweats and unshakable. The combination of the OTAL and FEU runes symbolizes material acquisition. If they are in an upright position, it predicts prosperity for you. Also, this rune indicates the fulfillment of what you have been striving for for a long time and what is finally in your power - you have overcome the resistance of either a person (someone interfered with your plans) or certain circumstances (unfavorable conditions, lack of time, etc. .). If the FEU is in the upright position, especially at the end of the fortune telling, it means that, thanks to your own zeal and hard work, you have won victory over the opposing forces.
To understand the meaning of this rune, you should take a closer look at the runic signs that fell along with it. If these are love runes, there is a chance that some romantic event will happen in your life. The following is possible: if you pluck up courage and confess your feelings of love, then your confession will be favorably received. It can also mean a happy change in your career or, since this rune is associated with some kind of acquisition, a successful investment of capital.
If FEU is surrounded by runes that portend bad things, or runes that indicate a delay, then this alignment probably says the following: you should wait - in your personal life with a new love affair or in business with concluding an agreement and cooperation with an unfamiliar business partner.
In this case, here’s some advice: focus all your efforts on maintaining what you have achieved, rather than jumping headlong into the unknown. If you want to find out whether you need to change your previous plan to another, then the rune tells you - “no”. As long as the FEU lies in an upright position, there is no need to pay attention to difficulties in the present. You should not give up if there is even the slightest chance of success. It may not be easy for you right now, but after night there always comes day. When FEU falls, rest assured that the sun will soon rise for you too.

Inverted position
If the FEU turns out to be in an inverted position during fortune telling, this indicates some kind of loss or disappointment, provided that you continue the work you started.
When there are favorable runes next to it, then this alignment probably indicates an annoying delay, an obstacle on your way. It's better for you to stay away from business for a while.
If during fortune telling you mainly come across runes that portend evil, then FEU indicates one thing: material losses await you. This rune also gives you advice to quit something you’ve already started, no matter how profitable it may seem. Perhaps you are not going through the best moments of your life. You are plagued by many business and personal problems. When it comes to love, a rune in this position means: you will have quarrels, doubts will arise, and perhaps even suspicions of infidelity. However, until runes prophesying bad things lie next to her, all your troubles are short-lived. Whenever this rune is reversed, be vigilant. Do not get involved in dubious enterprises and do not make ambiguous acquaintances, otherwise they will only bring you trouble later.

Uruz

URUZ is the rune of the wild bull. This symbol has many points of contact with FEU. But the latter personifies domesticated cattle, and URUZ represents the untamed vitality and energy of the stubborn wild bull that lived in the areas inhabited by the Old Scandinavian tribes.
For these tribes, the wild bull symbolized strength and sexual maturity. That is why URUZ is considered a convincing evidence of good health and powerful natural forces that resist illness. If this rune is chosen when fortune telling about health, then such a scenario indicates that the illness will soon pass or that there is no illness at all.
Sometimes URUZ can indicate a man in a love relationship and mean strong feelings. Can express the true desire of the petitioner - and it will come true with the appropriate surrounding runes. URUZ is a masculine, strong rune that sets everything in motion. It rules over changes, usually unexpected, forcing one to gather strength that only this rune can give.
These changes are often natural and cannot be avoided. Remember: we, like a snake shedding its skin, often need to get rid of the old to make way for the new. Look around you: maybe you are too attached to something. Take a look at the runes surrounding URUZ - perhaps you need to throw away the trash.
If you want to know how things will go or where to invest money, then this symbol says that success will ultimately await you, but you just need to make every effort and work hard. Often, URZZ indicates a promotion or new occupation, usually accompanied by additional responsibilities. In this situation, this rune testifies to one thing: whatever the burden placed on you, you have enough strength to cope with it. URUZ is the rune of indomitable energy.
In combination with favorable runes, it promises prosperity and a certain success, no matter what obstacles stand in your way.
Inverted position
If during fortune telling the URUZ is in an inverted position, this is a sign that you will either miss a favorable moment in the future, or have already overlooked it. Stretch your memory. Have you really missed a favorable opportunity by being afraid of small troubles? Have you allowed fear or low self-esteem to overcome you?
Sometimes this rune can indicate weakness of will, expressed in a lack of motivation or in the desire for someone whom you consider a strong personality to impose his ideas on you and guide your life. It feels like your own energy is being used against you. This is especially significant when, during fortune telling, the signs of GEBO and VUNIO fall in close proximity. Since URUZ is primarily a rune indicating good health, in an inverted position it indicates that you have almost exhausted your strength and will soon get sick - however, you will get away with a slight illness. When it comes to a man, it most often means that he is captive of various kinds of problems - psychological, physiological or sexual. Even when reversed, this rune still indicates amazing changes in your life. If it came out in combination with such runes of change as EVAZ or RAIDO, then such a scenario means: if you lack motivation, you will most likely pass by a favorable opportunity, and your life will not change for the better.
If during fortune-telling they predict bad things for you, then URUZ warns: let the change pass you by, for it will only bring you misfortune.
In both cases - inverted and upright - URUZ portends a significant change: when the rune is inverted, the change is undesirable for you. However, perhaps everything will still turn out for the better, especially if in another favorable scenario URUZ also ends up in an inverted position.

Turisaz

THURISAZ is not only an annoying thorn, as the name itself suggests, but also a symbolic sign of Thor's hammer - the powerful Mjollnir, the protector of people and gods.
This rune is associated with protection and good luck, especially if EIVAZ or ALGIZ are nearby. Sometimes such a situation means an unexpected gift of fate, and even from where you didn’t even guess. You will find yourself “at the right place at the right time” and make a profit.
However, sometimes a TURISAZ that appears during fortune telling means one thing: a long streak of luck is coming to an end. Don't be so confident in yourself, or you may be in for a rude awakening. Assess the current situation, your strengths, and only then rush forward recklessly.
In such a case, you may have chosen the wrong path or persist in your own delusions. What you gave your soul to is not so achievable, and it’s all because of your attitude - “I’m right, you’re wrong.” The runes that fell along with this one will tell you in which area your goal is unattainable - business, monetary or personal. If TURISA3 fell in combination with the runes HAGALL, NAUTIZ or ISA, then it is better for you to postpone your affairs until favorable times, and if you are forced to make a decision, then consult with those who are wiser and more impartial than you. This advice is especially relevant in the case when ANSUZ, YER or MANNAZ appear together with TURISAZ.
If TURISAZ prophesies bad things, then know: your actions are opposed by those who are either morally, politically, or financially stronger than you. How long - a lot or a little - you will remain in this position depends on the quality of other runes that are in the same combination with TURISAZ.
If the situation is favorable, this rune indicates that from now on nothing threatens you, luck returns to you again and you will be in good health.
Inverted position
TURISAZ in an inverted position has almost the same meaning as in an upright position. The main difference is that you or the person receiving the fortune may not follow this advice. You are determined to act in your own way, are completely confident in yourself and do not want to listen to advice that does not correspond to either your state of mind or life experience. If this runic sign is upside down, then the consequences of blindly following your chosen path are much worse than when the rune is in an upright position.
She foretells that your luck will soon change and from now on you must act with greater caution and caution. You will regret any hasty decision, as it will be dictated by weakness of will. You will even lie to yourself about your motives. By following this path, you will only create new difficulties for yourself, much more serious than those that are now interfering with your usual existence. Sometimes an inverted THURISAZ indicates that the threat comes from a person who, in your opinion, is weaker than you or is somehow subordinate to you. See if the KANO rune is upside down. If so, you are warned that the person mentioned will soon eclipse you.

Ansuz

This rune means mouth and usually indicates speaking a word, taking advice or gaining wisdom.
It can also indicate some kind of exam, written (at school) or oral (for example, a job interview). When the ANSUZ is in an upright position, all fears should be cast aside, for this means that speech from the mouth will flow freely and easily. When you see a rune in an upright position, you should be wary at a meeting or in a chance meeting, especially with older and wiser people.
She encourages you to be careful, think things through carefully, and consult with others. With one of the parents or with an authoritative person, wise with worldly experience and strong in spirit. Listen to it, for ANSUZ indicates that this advice will be unbiased, sincere and, most often, useful.
Advice given without any reservations and without malicious intent may be the very way out of the predicament in which you find yourself. Look at what runes dropped with ANSUZ: this will help you when choosing an advisor. If this symbol is BERKANA, then ask for advice from the mother or child - from the closest relatives. OTAL indicates an elderly relative, and YER most likely indicates a lawyer or other official figure.
Sometimes this sign says that you should acquire a new profession, or even foreshadows an unexpected event. In such a case, you will likely receive advice from a knowledgeable, patient person - someone who is attentive and sympathetic to you. You will learn a lot from him.
Inverted position
In an inverted position, ANSUZ portends lies, deception and deception, in which everyone around you will take part. Don't trust anyone's words, and if you have doubts, ask someone else for advice. Beware! Someone wants to win not for you, but for himself. An inverted rune warns that you will be given biased advice that is beneficial to another, and often your adviser is so interested in the matter at hand that impartiality is out of the question. Your parents or bosses are probably interfering with your plans. Perhaps you are worried that some disagreement will prevent you from accepting a certain proposal. Misunderstanding and unclear understanding of the predicament you were in in the past or in the present moment plays a significant role here.
A reversed sign may indicate an inability or an explicit refusal on your part to learn from the mistakes of others. It may also indicate that something is wrong with your studies or that you have the wrong approach to the knowledge you have acquired. In this regard, pay attention to the position of the ODIN rune. If it falls together with runes that foretell bad things, then this is a sign of an eternal student, one who studies for the sake of knowledge itself and does not apply it, and is not going to use it for the benefit of everyone.

Raido

The ancient Scandinavians identified this runic sign with the word cart, and, of course, this symbol means travel or moving.
RAIDO is a symbol of travel, usually for pleasure. It often indicates a safe or fun trip, usually without unpleasant incidents and often in the company of drinking buddies. Sometimes such a journey serves only as an allegory of spiritual quests. If this concerns you, then you should take up spiritual development. The rune advises those who have embarked on this path not to leave it.
Also, its meaning may be this: this is a favorable time for various kinds of discussions or negotiations. During this period, you think logically and several steps ahead. The rune offers one answer to all controversial issues: it is possible to achieve - although there are a number of difficulties - an acceptable solution.
If we are talking about money, then this rune may indicate that now is the time to buy or sell something. It also perhaps portends that you will receive some information, most likely by telephone. The news may be completely unexpected or take you by surprise.
Often RAIDO indicates that you see two solutions to a problem and believe that they are both correct. If there is an ambiguous situation, beware. When RAIDO appears along with bad runes, you are strongly advised not to take the word of those around you. If you are entering into contracts at this time, pay close attention to the fine print. If it appears with the PERT rune reversed, you should not wait for the promises made to you to be fulfilled; with ALGIZ reversed, you will probably be deceived.
Inverted position
In an inverted position, this rune means: everything associated with RAIDO has acquired a minus sign. It may foretell that you will have to unexpectedly go on a trip, and the reason will be unexpected. Often for the purpose of visiting a sick friend or relative.
Sometimes such a situation means that visitors will come to you at the most inopportune moment. A reversed rune can foretell difficulties when moving: for example, a delay in travel, a breakdown, or perhaps even an accident. Look at the neighboring runes. You may want to postpone your trip.
In an inverted position, RAIDO may foreshadow the disruption of your plans. From now on, you should expect that the deals you intended to make or the negotiations you intended to carry out will fall through. Also pay close attention to your personal life. A breakup is more likely than a reconciliation. You will need to put a lot of effort into not getting irritated and maintaining humor when communicating with friends or a loved one.

Kano

KANO is a symbol of fire. However, unlike FEU (what the last rune symbolizes, personifying fire, will be discussed in detail in the section on magic), KANO is identified with the friendly, kind, controlled flame of a torch or fireplace. This rune is the personification of strength, energy and power. Like URUZ, it is an indicator of good health and strong resistance of the body to illnesses.
In fortune telling, it often denotes the importance of a good attitude. KANO is one of the most useful runes for a variety of difficulties. In the upright position, it is a protective sign and indicates: the end of your worries will soon; The time is coming when your trials will become few and easily overcome.
This rune also foreshadows a time of discovery, a time when your life will be filled with goodness. Now is the time to start something new - perhaps start a new novel.
When it comes to love, KANO always personifies the man in a relationship - the gender of the one who asked to tell fortunes does not matter. This runic sign inevitably indicates that a man is offering something to a woman. This could be some kind of material gift (jewelry, flowers) or expressed verbally (declaration of love). If the one to whom the fortune is told is a man, then the neighboring runes indicate whether his gift will be accepted or rejected. If this is a woman, look at the neighboring runes, and they will tell you what reasons prompted her to give the gift.
KANO is the rune of creativity, and as such it is of particular importance for artistic people and masters of their craft. This sign in combination with the runes INGUZ, BERKANA or HAGALL can also mean the birth of a child. When adjacent to the runes ANSUZ, RAIDO, VUNIO or ALGIZ, it indicates the birth of an idea, something creative, sometimes inspired by love.
Inverted position
In the inverted position, KANO does not mean the expansion of the horizon or the beginning of something new, but, on the contrary, the end. It does not indicate a gift at all, but a loss or a gift taken back.
When combined with delay runes such as ISA, NAUTIZ, or reversed OTAL, this loss or delay can lead to a stop in your development, leading to mental trauma or anxiety.
You may feel like you got the timing wrong, or your mind's vision was so clouded that you became confused and made your situation even more difficult.
If the rune is reversed when fortune telling about love, then this may mean that a man and a woman together have accomplished everything that was destined for them by fate, and from now on they will have to go down different paths. This is especially true in cases where NAUTIZ or an inverted NAUTIZ appears. In this situation, it is better to break up. Don't cling to what is already becoming a thing of the past. Both in business and in personal terms, accept what has happened as an inevitable but necessary evil and prepare your soul for further growth, which is inevitable.

Gebo

The meaning of GEBO is a gift, and this rune will truly delight your heart if it appears during fortune telling. This is the first rune that does not have an inverted position. Therefore, it almost always brings good luck. If the GEBO rune turns out to be decisive, then this is a very good sign, foreshadowing a happy ending to any enterprise you started in the time period indicated during fortune-telling.
GEBO usually indicates some kind of partnership in business or love. Often it foreshadows an important change in personal relationships. This could be marriage or something else that strengthens a long-term relationship of this kind. Slowly examine the runes adjacent to GEBO, so you can determine exactly what it portends for you. Follow your intuition.
This rune can also indicate some kind of generous gift to you. Perhaps it will be of a spiritual nature - love, and perhaps of a material nature, for example - money. The last gift may help you out of trouble or help you acquire something you have needed for a long time. However, sometimes GEBO only indicates that the problem facing you is rooted in the sphere of personal relationships.
Often this rune foreshadows that adversity is about to leave you alone. It usually predicts the coming of peace and prosperity in your life.

Vunyo

VUNYO, one of the auspicious runes, means joy. When it appears upright, it predicts that joy and happiness will fill your life. This good sign means that the troubles that are bedeviling you now will disappear. The turn has already taken place. The wheel of fortune has turned favorably for you, and you are about to “come to your senses.” Be happy!
In combination with other symbols, it indicates success in those areas over which the runes that fell in the neighborhood have power. So, for example, with travel runes like RAIDO or EVAZ, this sign means a successful and pleasant journey. With runes that foretell the receipt of news, like ANSUZ, she can also prophesy good events. When VUNIO lies together with runes related to the love sphere, this symbol can speak of deep feelings, as well as a long and happy life together.
Often VUNYO will point to the object of the questioner's attraction. In this case, this rune usually talks about what actions were taken by the person mentioned to achieve a successful outcome.
It can also indicate that someone finds joy in work, especially if the latter is associated with the artistic or creative world. The rune in question often appears, like KANO, during fortune telling for artists or masters of their craft and states that the element of creativity is extremely important for their personal happiness and well-being.
Inverted position
In an inverted position, the meaning of VUNIO is exactly the opposite of its meaning in an upright position. Progress towards the desired goal is slow. You may currently be going through a difficult time: adversity has piled up and life is bleak. The runes adjacent to VUNYO will tell you what’s going on. If it falls out along with RAIDO or EVAZ, then it is possible that your trip will be unsafe or unsuccessful: breakdowns and delays may occur along the way.
If it comes to work, then VUNIO perhaps speaks of dissatisfaction either with his duties or with the quality of their performance. In love matters, this symbol indicates disappointment or some kind of hitch in the relationship, the depth of which is evidenced by the neighboring runes.
In all matters related to business, travel or love, caution should be exercised when the rune is reversed. Perhaps it is even better to postpone the decision of an important issue until more favorable times.
This sign may also indicate that some third party is putting a spoke in your wheels to interfere with your work. Be especially wary of double-dealing from your colleagues or competitors.

Hagall

HAGALL means hail. In combination with the ISA and NAUTIZ runes, this rune mainly indicates restrictions and delays. It symbolizes forces beyond your control.
This is a sign of spontaneous destruction. Destruction can be both beneficial and harmful. Usually the latter is the case, since the forces invading your life are, for the most part, impartial.
HAGALL often appears when you are thinking about some risky undertaking. In this case, the neighboring runes will show you whether the risk is justified. If it goes together with FEU or YER, then success awaits you in the end, but on the condition that you have to sweat. When it appears together with PERTH, you will unexpectedly get something for yourself: you will win the lottery and the like. If any of the runes listed above are reversed, then you definitely should not undertake a risky venture or embark on any adventures.
Sometimes this rune suggests that the threads of your destiny are now in the wrong hands. Since HAGALL indicates impartial forces, usually this “other” is a faceless official or a person who does not know you. Often you will learn about this from someone else's lips or from a letter sent to you from a government agency.
When HAGALL appears in a reading, this is a sure sign that you do not need to start anything new. In life, sometimes delays and obstacles come in handy: they teach you patience, the ability to put up with them and try to put a good face on a bad game. The desire to resist fate or circumstances will bring you nothing but trouble. Now you should take a step back and try to go with the flow.
This symbol sometimes predicts a destructive natural event: illness, birth, and maybe death. Often this destruction causes you great harm, but its effect is temporary, and it lasts no longer than the period indicated in the fortune telling. In a positive scenario, HAGALL may indicate simple interference rather than destruction, especially when runes indicating delay such as ISA, NAUTIZ or inverted OTAL are placed nearby. This intervention may be the motivation for you to completely change your own life. However, again a lot depends on the neighboring runes, especially those that follow directly after HAGALL in fortune telling.

Nautiz

This is one of three runes that encourage patience. When you feel like you are being disturbed, being forced to do something, you are unwell or in a depressed mood, this rune says that no matter how hard it is for you now, everything will work out and you should not show haste or anxiety: do not rush things - everything has its turn.
NAUTIZ always indicates that you have a difficult part of the path ahead, but it will teach you something. Many authors of works on occultism often call this period “the passage over the abyss,” and often this time period is accompanied by very strong emotional tension. However, defeating it and the fear it generates will allow you to more easily overcome obstacles that may arise on your path in the future.
Many philosophers believe that when we lose, we gain, and when we understand that often a lot of useful things can be learned from our troubles, we develop spiritually and physically.
The rune in question may also indicate that you should think twice and only then begin to implement new plans, because at the moment you have neither the opportunity nor the strength to bring your plans to a successful end. NAUTIZ almost always prophesies failure: she advises to restrain impulses, remain calm and not waste your energy now.
In combination with health runes, NAUTIZ often foreshadows some kind of disease (perhaps chronic) or misfortune. When it appears with such runes of good health as KANO (in an upright position), it indicates an improvement in well-being or, perhaps, even a complete recovery from an illness, especially if the fortune-telling turned out to be positive.
In a love relationship, the appearance of this rune indicates that you are overwhelmed by a feeling that is currently not met with a response.
This symbol indicates that your needs are in conflict with your desires. When it appears, ask yourself: are you selfishly upset over minor inconveniences, or is there really something wrong with you?
Inverted position
Whenever NAUTIZ is reversed, you should definitely think carefully before proceeding with your plan. In this position, the rune tells you that you have taken the wrong path. If you persist, failure and despair are inevitable. Do not make rash decisions, do not allow impatience to overcome you, because your actions can have disastrous consequences. If the warning is late and you are already going down the wrong path, then this rune tells you: be honest, admit your own mistake and try to save everything that is possible.
When ODIN or YER falls next door, this alignment means one thing: it’s time for you to answer for your crimes in the past. ODIN portends that the punishing hand of fate will overtake you. YER claims that you are about to fall into the clutches of the law.
If you are not honest with yourself and those around you and do not want to do what is right, then some external force will intervene, and you will pay heavily for your disobedience. If HAGALL appears in a pair with an inverted rune, then this “external force” may turn out to be God; if - ONE, then this is the hand of fate. If YER is in your neighborhood, you are in for trouble from the legal system or bureaucracy.

By definition, ISA means a complete suspension of active activities. Everything should be postponed until a more favorable moment. In combination with other runes indicating delay, it shows that you will not achieve any success now. Procrastination and disruption of plans are, of course, problematic, but as long as extremely unfavorable runes are nearby, they are temporary. ISA often indicates impending cooling. Neighboring runes indicate exactly where - in business or personal relationships. Ill will and hostility are possible, even possibly separation of spouses or breaking of marriage ties.
In love affairs, most often the cause of a breakup is the partner’s infidelity, but sometimes the rune can also mean the infidelity of the questioner. If love runes do not appear nearby in an inverted position, then the cooling, as a rule, ends quite quickly. When the ISA occurs in a generally very unfavorable scenario, the cooling has gone too far, and the relationship cannot be saved. If this is the case, it is better to take up a more promising business or make a new acquaintance - you will feel better.

The meaning of this rune is harvest, and it foretells receiving rewards for your labors. You will be rewarded - either fate will show its favor in response to a good deed you have done in the past, or it will be compensation for the time or money you once spent. YER is also a symbol of justice and adherence to the requirements of the law. Sometimes it indicates that the questioner is worried about some kind of court case, and it is not always resolved favorably.
Since the harvest is the result of hard work and worries, YER explains that every event, like a vegetable, has its time. Sometimes it is possible to delay in legal matters, such as non-payment of a house payment or obtaining a divorce, especially if NAUTIZ occupies a significant position in fortune-telling. In the final position, the YER usually indicates the following: the issue under consideration will be resolved positively, often with legal assistance.
If the situation is predominantly unfavorable, do not rush to get upset. All is not lost, for if YER turns out to be the final rune, many of the failures and difficulties predicted by the previous runes may have less disastrous consequences if the culprit himself makes the effort.
If YER falls in combination with the rune ODIN, NAUTIZ or HAGALL, then this alignment often indicates that the questioner has minded his own business. Especially if with ONE - a sign that he or she is tempting fate. YER can also serve as a warning: do not speak badly about others while all the circumstances are unknown.

Eyvaz

For the ancients, the yew, which is what this rune symbolizes, was a powerful ally in everyday life. For the Scandinavian tribes, this tree meant even more than oak. Not only was it suitable for making longbows, but it was also the tree of Yggdrasil, the Great Tree. In Old Norse mythology, it is the core of the nine worlds of people and spirits. This rune symbolizes protection.
EIVAZ shows that you have chosen the right goal and are able to achieve what you want. There may be a small obstacle in your way, just don't overdo it in your quest to move forward. You are probably unable to predict the successful outcome of your venture right now. Delay in this case can have a beneficial effect on your affairs.
If EIVAZ occupies a significant place in fortune telling, then it no longer matters how bad things are in reality. This situation predicts that everything will work out.
This rune also indicates a slight delay or minor injury, which will not lead to major damage or even, in the end, will be to your benefit. The runes that fell after EIVAZ will tell you what will happen next.
This symbol tells you that only through insight, perseverance and the right actions can you avoid a difficult situation. Look ahead boldly. Perhaps you have doubts about the future? If so, try to anticipate likely difficulties. If you catch yourself in time, you will be able, with the help of EIVAZ, to turn a defeat with tragic consequences into your own triumph.
Sometimes this rune hints that it is necessary to resolve an issue that has been shelved. The hint turns into an insistent demand when the runes ANSUZ or YER appear in the layout.

Perth

This rune represents mystery, both magically and literally. Philologists still cannot come to a consensus on the meaning of this symbol. Some call it a “chess piece,” others call it a “dice bowl” or a device for casting lots. Someone even hypothesized that it denotes a melody or music.
However, when doing fortune telling, its meaning is clear. It indicates the hidden, secrets and abilities in the occult sciences.
In fortune telling, the appearance of PERT usually indicates that something secret will soon become apparent. As a rule, this “secret” is of a favorable nature: an opportunity to start something new, or perhaps an item that you thought was lost forever will be returned to you. But this symbol can warn that a secret will be revealed, and it is advisable that it not become public knowledge.
In addition, PERTH foreshadows unexpected profits and surprises and often indicates unearned income, especially in combination with the runes TURISAZ, GEBO, HAGALL or ODINA. Sometimes income can be a monetary gift. In this case, since PERTH is shrouded in a dense shroud of secrecy, take a close look at the neighboring runes, because the donor’s motives may not be selfish. In love affairs, the combination of this rune with URUZ, GEBO, KANO, VUNYO, TEYVAZ, BERKANA or LAGUZ means that lovers are perfectly suited to each other sexually. The combination with the runes URUZ, KANO or TEYVAZ in an inverted position suggests that real affection is based mainly on carnal attraction and that intimacy will be interrupted if a man and a woman do not try to find common points for spiritual communication.
When adjacent to runes that predict bad things, PERT may portend some kind of disease that cannot be treated with traditional medicine. If this is the case, then resort to various types of alternative medicine, for example, acupuncture, massage of biologically active skin points, herbal remedies or treatment with magic.
This rune also indicates strong intuition or occult abilities in the questioner, which he or she will soon need to overcome a difficult period.
Inverted position
When reversed, PERTH means that things may not go the way you wanted. Don't expect much at this time. You will probably encounter many obstacles on your way, but be strong.
This rune speaks of unpleasant surprises and threatening secrets. If you are hiding something, then in the near future the secret will become clear. PERTH often predicts that you will be disappointed in another person, perhaps a close friend. And the reason for this is usually monetary. Don't lend money, especially to a friend. You may have a hard time getting them back. And if you do succeed, then considerable disappointment awaits you.
In a love relationship, an inverted rune hints at the emergence of disagreements between a man and a woman. If TEYVAZ, URUZ or KANO are also inverted or ISA falls out, then, consequently, one of the two has lost attraction to a representative of the opposite sex. Whether this can be overcome or not, the neighboring runes and the whole fortune telling will tell you.
In some cases, this rune also says that as a result of inept handling of occult forces, you have gone much further than you expected. You must be familiar with the techniques of occultism and, more importantly, be aware of your motives when performing occult actions, as well as understand occult symbolism.

Algiz

ALGIZ means that some good, powerful force is entering your life. Often it manifests itself through the sphere of unconscious emotions or through instincts.
You have had the opportunity to do something new or take a course of study - perhaps the mentioned force has intervened. ALGIZ symbolizes friendship and often foretells that you will make an acquaintance with a sympathetic, generous and cheerful person who is walking somewhere nearby. ALGIZ is a rune of very powerful forces of protection, and its appearance usually indicates that you will be protected from any misfortune for the period specified in fortune-telling.
Often, if trouble really threatens you, you will be warned, and you will be able to avoid possible difficulties. Take a look at the other runes that fell out and call on your own intuition to help.
Inverted position
In an inverted position, ALGIZ is a sign of vulnerability, self-sacrifice without personal gain. As a rule, it indicates that those around you are deceiving and misleading you. You have spent a lot of effort for their benefit, but do not expect gratitude from them. For the most part, you will be made a scapegoat for the mistakes others have made.
This rune may indicate that you should refuse some offer and avoid a certain person. Go through all your recent acquaintances in your memory. If you have to deal with dubious characters who are not averse to making you pull chestnuts out of the fire for them, be on your guard and try to turn everything in your favor. If you succeed in the latter, then ultimately you will win.
Sometimes you will probably understand that it is not those around you who are deceiving you, but that you are leading yourself by the nose. Perhaps you want to get a lot without making any effort. Your greed and naivety will make you an easy target for fraud, especially in the business and financial world.
As for the love sphere, ALGIZ advises holding off on starting new romances. You should first find out more about the person and his motives.

Soulu

SOULU, like TEYVAZ, is one of the runes of victory. If it appears during fortune telling, you are guaranteed success. It is also a symbol of great power. You will be given such power that in a given time period you will be able to change your own life. Any resistance that comes your way will be easily swept away, and you will have time to rest. Sometimes the appearance of SOULU hints: something is bothering you and giving you no rest. Surrounded by runes indicating business relationships, RAIDO and VUNIO, or runes for gaining material wealth, like OTAL or FEU, it shows that you are not sparing yourself at work, and you just need to get distracted and take a break.
In the latter case, if the alignment is unfavorable, it indicates that you are constantly having considerable difficulties, but you, apparently, are not diligently searching for solutions to them. Often this rune indicates a person who is very self-centered and wants to completely control his own life. If the person mentioned is not able to fully control himself, then he is overcome by feelings of anxiety and helplessness. In this case, beware when the runes ODIN, HAGALL, ISA, NAUTIZ and THURISAZ appear, especially NAUTIZ.
SOULU is the rune of good health and vitality. Sometimes her choice indicates that the questioner is concerned about his own well-being. See if there are any KANO and TEYVAZ runes nearby, indicating considerable positive vitality, or the GEBO, DAGAZ and INGUZ runes, indicating healthy forces in the body that can overcome illness.
This rune does not have an inverted position, and it almost always predicts a favorable outcome.

Teyvaz

TEYVAZ is one of the runes of victory, foreshadowing success in any competition. This symbol, like no other, embodies the competitive spirit, and it will probably permeate all your actions until the period specified in the fortune-telling expires. It may indicate that you are about to get down to business or have already done so. Usually we are talking about the fight for justice. You are willing to fight for what you believe in, no matter the odds of success. Perhaps you will prevail - it all depends on the fortune-telling situation.
This is the rune of over motivation. She says that willpower and determination will help you overcome any difficulties. However, take a look at the neighboring runes. When TEYVAZ falls together with the runes FEU, URUZ and SOULU, which also indicate a successful end, then you should continue the fight, going from one victory to another and destroying your opponents. However, when extremely unfavorable runes or runes advising you not to rush appear in a reading, you are warned that no matter how determined you are, the opposing forces will win. Often the appearance of TEYVAZ indicates that you will gain money or power, and sometimes both. Thanks to your strong character and your abilities, you will occupy a high position.
When it comes to love and personal relationships, this rune is a wonderful sign. She confirms the timeliness of starting a new romance, happy and passionate.
TEYVAZ mainly symbolizes the masculine principle. In fortune telling, the rune symbolizes the person asking if it is male; if it is a woman, then the rune points to the most important man in her life - the one she likes more than others. As a rule, this man just enters her life - the smoldering flame flares up. Rather, the man in question is a lover, not a husband, and so on. If, in the scenario, TEYVAZ is in an upright position, then this man is filled with the most honest intentions, but if the rune is inverted, then, perhaps, he is not entirely frank with you, and you have every reason to wonder what, in fact, draws him to you. The combination of PERT in an inverted position with TEYVAZ says that your relationship is based on ordinary sexual desire. When TEYVAZ (direct position) falls together with VUNIO, then such a layout indicates one thing: your relationship will be tender and long-lasting. If the person asking is a man, then the appearance of TEYVAZ in the layout, as a rule, confirms that he is a strong-willed person. If the person asking is a woman, then this symbol may also mean that a man who will help her solve her problems is somewhere nearby. This will always be a person she respects and, in a sense, looks up to.
If they tell fortunes to a woman, and at the same time TEYVAZ lies down with LAGUZ, then, consequently, she herself will have to deal with her difficulties.
If, during fortune telling, a man gets TEYVAZ together with MANNA3, then this alignment often indicates that influential and superior friends will help you.
This sign may also indicate that you will soon recover from your illness.
Inverted position
In an inverted position, TEYVAZ represents cooling, failure in business (you have been surpassed by competitors) and infidelity in love and friendship.
This rune often means that some obstacle is preventing the passage of energy. It can indicate a lack of ideas and creativity, as well as extreme impatience on the part of the questioner. If, in a favorable scenario, you come across runes indicating procrastination, then it means you are putting “the cart before the horse.” If you are patient, everything will work out. For a man, the appearance of this rune may indicate that he is inclined to give up in the face of difficulties and, most likely, will not try to improve the situation. This rune explains that you expect that all the blessings will fall on you like manna from heaven, and if this is not the case, then there is no need. If, during fortune telling, a woman nearby gets a LAGUZ, then what was said above is also true in this case.
In love affairs, TEYVAZ in an inverted position indicates that your current relationship, based on consent, will not develop into an eternal union. Sometimes this rune indicates a man’s cooling. She indicates that when communicating, you experience mutual misunderstanding and friction. Whether this will lead to reconciliation or, ultimately, to separation depends on the neighboring runes. Be careful at this time in expressing your own feelings - you may be offended.

Berkana

This is a fertility rune - a symbol of birth and family. In fortune telling, BERKANA often represents your mother or your children. Usually this rune foreshadows some event that will make your family happy - the birth of a child or a wedding. BERKANA symbolizes your real home, “the home where your heart remains,” as opposed to the place where you live now. BERKANA constantly prophesies birth, be it the birth of a child or the emergence of an idea.
At this time, handle everything carefully and competently. This symbol always indicates the real result. The rune is very favorable when you are thinking about something new. She suggests: you must immediately begin to implement your plan.
In the final position, she states that the outcome will be successful. In a different position, this rune often means the beginning of something new - an enterprise, a love affair - that will bring a lot of happiness. Surrounded by favorable runes, it indicates a happy ending, while the proximity of runes foreshadowing bad things indicates that your success will be short-lived.
For those who want to have children, BERKANA predicts that a child will be born.
Inverted position
In an inverted position, BERKANA, as a rule, means problems in the family and domestic troubles. It indicates great differences between you and your loved ones.
BERKANA in an inverted position does not determine fate, but warns, but not if the environment consists of runes that portend evil. This rune itself does not indicate a final break or irreconcilable contradictions.
In an inverted position, it can predict discord in the family or the receipt of disturbing news about one of its members. Often its presence indicates your concern for a loved one. The neighboring runes will tell you who it is: GEBO represents a spouse or loved one, ANSUZ a child, and OTAL an elderly relative.
When it comes to business, this rune usually means that the plan you are currently cherishing will fail. However, since this rune, even in an inverted position, does not prophesy a completely unfavorable outcome, it may be that it is telling you: act prudently, with restraint, do everything in your own time, and your plans may come true - only later.

Evaz

EVAZ is the rune of physical movement, physical movement or new places of residence. Its main meaning is change, and, as a rule, it means a change for the better. This change is usually associated with moving, perhaps even with a change of place of residence. EVAZ represents gradual development and sustainable progress.
It can also mean land travel, especially if the runes RAIDO, ANSUZ or BERKANA are nearby. ANSUZ in an inverted position portends a trip to a sick relative; RAIDO is a pleasure walk, and BERKANA is a family gathering. EVAZ in a significant position says: no matter what you encounter, you are on the right path and close to success. In combination with the runes ANSUZ, YER, MANNAZ, which indicate help coming from outside, the rune in question may indicate a person whose sound judgment and practical mind will help you overcome everything that worries you at the moment.
Inverted position
EVAZ is the only rune that does not acquire a minus sign in an inverted position. In combination with favorable runes, its meaning is the same as in the upright position.
Sometimes it foreshadows a long journey, especially if it is adjacent to LAGUZ. The combination of our rune with RAIDO means that the trip will not last long and will be for pleasure.
In some cases, especially when it comes along with URUZ, it can mean a sudden or unexpected change. If during fortune-telling there were no runes in the reading that bode ill, then most likely this change is not for the worse. However, when the reversed EVAZ is associated with runes that prophesy evil, you should slow down and not rush into changes that you may be considering. Because of them, you will most likely find yourself in trouble and at a loss. Your activity or passivity must be timely.

Mannaz

MANNAZ is the rune of the human race. This is a symbol of connection. They can help you solve your problem. Help can come in the form of sound advice. As with the ANSUZ rune, this advice will be completely sincere and unbiased.
Sometimes this rune, when used in fortune telling, points to the questioner. In this case, she tells you that you find yourself in a very difficult situation and it is not in your power to find a way out of it. In combination with runes that predict bad things, it indicates the following: you have lost power over yourself and are ready to surrender to the mercy of the winner.
The time has come to get that sound advice that was discussed earlier, and try to stop seeing things around you in black terms. In combination with favorable runes, MANNA3 says that now is the time to implement your plans. However, in the vicinity of the runes indicating procrastination, NAUTIZ, ISA or OTAL, as well as ANSUZ in an inverted position, she reports that now is not the time to put fresh ideas into practice.
This rune can mean: curb your appetite. Now is not the time to take out a loan to complete your plans. Study your current situation, look at the runes and understand how things really are.
MANNAZ may indicate the ability to perform magic, especially if the PERT or LAGUZ runes are nearby. Also, the combination of MANNAZ and LAGUZ may indicate the following: the asking party is currently not developing relationships with women. The gender of the person asking does not matter.
Inverted position
In an inverted position, this rune says: you should not wait for help from your neighbor until the period specified in fortune-telling has expired.
During this period, your plans will certainly collapse. Sometimes you only have one opponent, but more often it is a group of people. It is beneficial for them to interfere in your affairs. The runes surrounding MANNAZ will tell you what means to resort to. When combined with the ISA or NAUTIZ runes, you need to wait and only then act; When paired with YER, you should use the services of lawyers. TEYVAZ advises “matching fire with fire.”
Also, the presence of the rune in question may mean that at this time there is no worse enemy for you than yourself. Your difficulties are a consequence of narcissism and egocentrism. For a change, try to look at yourself and your actions from the outside.
In addition, it may mean getting closer to a person who is alien to you, perhaps a resident of another country. It is possible that the person mentioned sees you as a sexual object. MANNA3 has the same meaning in a favorable scenario.

Laguz

LAGUZ is the rune of intuitive knowledge. She advises listening to the voice of intuition. Sometimes, especially if you have the PERT rune, it can indicate certain parapsychological abilities, as well as the fact that you are being guided and protected by higher powers. Typically, you are not aware of this guidance.
For those who have not had supernatural abilities since childhood, this rune may foretell some important event or prophesy a dream that will help them avoid danger or reject an unprofitable offer. In this case, success depends on whether you can hear your inner voice.
LAGUZ is the main female rune. She usually represents the person asking if she is a woman. This rune indicates to a woman: no matter what difficulties get in your way, you will overcome them. If they tell fortunes to a man, then the rune tells him: you have a reliable rear behind you in the person of a woman who, apparently, is the only one.
This rune indicates good memory and academic success. As a rule, you owe them to your own creative abilities. Often it shows that luck has turned to face you and, therefore, the time for rest, re-evaluation and cleansing is approaching.
When LAGUZ appears at the end, it means that you will meet sympathy and understanding from those who are aware of their responsibility to help you solve your problems.
Inverted position
In an inverted position, if LAGUZ is not surrounded by favorable runes, she prophesies a terrible disaster. She reports that following your intuition will lead or has already led you to places where you don’t like everything. This rune speaks of the temptation to do stupid things or choose the wrong path leading to misfortune.
Until runes appear in her environment indicating delay, she is against a wait-and-see attitude. You should do something immediately to get out of trouble. LAGUZ can also indicate a woman who will disturb your peace. Your friend will probably betray you and stab you in the back. If they tell fortunes to a man, then it can also indicate either that his girlfriend is unfaithful, or that a new love affair will only bring him misfortune.
When combined with success runes, it can indicate a strong woman, perhaps giving you generous help now, but later demanding gratitude. In addition, the rune in question often indicates an inability to curb one’s own instincts, especially in the vicinity of PERTH.

Inguz

INGUZ is a rune with almost always a positive sign. Only in a very, very unfavorable situation does it really predict failure. She says that now you have access to such forces that will help you realize your ideas, and points to the successful resolution of the issues that have been bothering you.
It also symbolizes the feeling of relief that comes after successfully completing a task. However, this rune also indicates the state of a person simply freed from anxiety.
INGUZ is a rune of great importance, and it can foretell an event that will become a milestone on your life path: the birth of a child (especially if there is BERKAN in the layout), a new place of work (with FEU) or a new love affair (with GEBO or VUNIO) . This rune indicates the completion of the previous stage of life and the beginning of a new, more exciting one. She notes that the time has come for favorable forces and a time when nothing prevents them from unfolding with all their might. When it appears in a reading, you can be sure that a wonderful future awaits you.

Dagaz

DAGAZ symbolizes increased well-being. This rune often heralds a period of prosperity. She never prophesies troubles. Even in an unfavorable situation, DAGAZ shows: your spirit is strong enough, you just have to wish to resort to its power, and you will change the current state of affairs.
If there are runes in the layout that indicate forced delay, it softens their unfavorability and indicates that obstacles will eventually be overcome. The rune symbolizes changes that are slow but inevitable. Changes will occur, but you will not notice them until one day, when you wake up, you see that the world has become much brighter.
DAGAZ largely dictates your behavior. This rune, like KANO, advises smiling more, then all your difficulties will be solved by themselves. If DAGAZ is paired with an inverted VUNYO, an inverted MANNAZ, an inverted OTAL or HAGALL, this means that constant focus on problems and obstacles in your path only complicates your situation. Sometimes choosing this rune means a huge change in your destiny, perhaps so radical that your life will never return to its previous track. As a rule, you start writing life from scratch, but sometimes the rune tells you that you must try to make the most of circumstances beyond your control. However, thanks to outside help, perhaps some enlightenment will come. When MANNAZ appears in a reading, hope for it.
This rune foretells that a new path in life or spiritual world will open up for you - perhaps you will even be illuminated by the light of good news.

Otal

OTAL is a rune that signifies property and usually symbolizes what can be purchased with money. As a rule, this is land or housing. When he points to the money itself, it is either an inheritance, or it is in a trust or pension fund. When combined with the runes FEU, BERKANA, NAUTIZ or VUNIO, it indicates a materialist or miser. However, sometimes, especially in combination with SOULU, it indicates a workaholic who has to work hard and tirelessly in order to satisfy his own needs, and who has become quite accustomed to this situation.
Often the rune indicates a person striving to achieve an ideal or who had a vision in the past. Look for runes to confirm
ANSUZ and MANNAZ.
It also foretells that older people or perhaps old friends will help you in difficult situations.
It can also denote hereditary traits.
Inverted position
In the reversed position, OTAL means procrastination and disruption of plans. In a significant position, she tells you that because of your efforts to move forward by leaps and bounds, you will find yourself in considerable difficulty. Continuing to act hastily, you will only completely destroy your relationship with another person or completely aggravate your own already difficult situation.
In combination with favorable runes, an inverted OTAL means the following: luck has not completely turned away from you, although now it is not as easy as you would like to catch it. The main thing here is patience. This symbol also conveys that success ultimately depends on integrity and attention to detail.
In an inverted position, this rune means that a person stands firmly with both feet on the ground. The rune may indicate that until a certain point in the recent past, life for you was a kind of store where everything was bought and sold, and suddenly you found yourself in such a bind that even money is unable to alleviate your fate. In fact, OTAL means that no one - neither family nor credit institutions - will provide you with financial assistance. Often this rune declares that even the methods permitted by law will not help you, because while OTAL is upside down, an attempt to “oppose the system” or turn its shortcomings to your advantage is a fruitless endeavor.

Runes are a popular magical attribute that requires the right attitude

What are runes and how did they come about?

Runes are magical signs and symbols that magicians use to carry out their rituals.

Single runes can be depicted on anything: a board, a hand, clothes, or they can be in a person’s mind, that is, visualized.

The history of the appearance of these symbols goes back to pagan tribes, and later to sacred writing (Phoenician, Greek and Latin). The Northern Italian script is the basis of the modern runic alphabet. The first runes arose in Scandinavia, and then spread throughout the world.

The very first, Scandinavian, runes were transformed into Anglo-Saxon ones (28 hieroglyphs), and those into Northumbrian (or simply late Anglo-Saxon), which already numbered 33 magical symbols. After the massive introduction of Christianity and the eradication of paganism among peoples, the runic alphabet began to fade and was soon completely forgotten. The surge of great interest in it was caused by the discovery by archaeologists of new monuments of unknown civilizations.

How to use runes: scope, types of runes

Not all runes are the same. Among them, there are magical ones, used by sorcerers and magicians during sacraments and rituals, and ordinary (common Germanic) ones, used by ordinary people in everyday areas of life to change the course of events or improve their quality. Why is it necessary to use magic runes:

The use of magic runes is necessary to obtain an energy charge

• energy recharging;
• increase in potency;
• increasing efficiency and activity to complete a large number of tasks in a short period of time;
• entering the “attack state” that accompanies people in need of opportunity;
• freely and freely express and argue your thoughts in difficult life situations;
• protection from the negative influences of the surrounding world;
• unlocking human potential;
• sharpening of intuition.

The positive effect that runes have on a person is noticeable to the naked eye. You just need to know how and in what atmosphere work with runes should take place.

Rules for using magical hieroglyphs

Knowing how to work with runes, you can attract even more into your life than was described above. Using runes has its own rules:

• Painstaking study of runes before and during use. It is important not to forget what they look like, what system they belong to, and most importantly, the meaning of the runes).
• Constant meditation practice. Meditation has a positive effect on runes, because in order for the symbols to give out their energy, they need to be charged with it. During meditation practices, a useful skill is to write down all your thoughts and feelings.
• Beginners should start with the simplest ones, gradually increasing the complexity of the combinations.
• Practice is the key to success. A continuously practicing person goes towards his goal, despite the fact that the runes may not work. Trying again and again, one day the moment will come for a person when the signs begin to bring positivity.
• Using other people's experience on the path to self-improvement can only bring success if a person analyzes in detail every mistake or, on the contrary, the right step of another.

Runes are not only fancy symbols, but also a powerful source of energy. They will only work for positively minded, non-lazy, open and courageous people who believe in themselves and know what they are getting into when turning to runes. Only in this case will they begin to be useful.

Runes in real life: areas of application of runes

The use of runes in reality often seems somewhat complicated, even after detailed study of various information, because runes are an unknown world for beginners. Using one picture is not always enough - magic symbols can and should be combined with each other. Only then will the right energy arise between them, and the collection will bring the desired result.

The study showed that rune combinations work great without additional help, it is only important to assemble them correctly and tune in to the right mood. For beginners, not too complex staves are suitable (this is the name of a runic combination of several hieroglyphs). We will tell you below how to use runes and combine them into staves.

A runic stave is a set of certain hieroglyphs assembled together in the correct sequence. You need to create stakes with caution, because if you approach this frivolously or in the wrong mood, you can greatly harm both yourself and the people around you.

For beginners, the simplest combinations are suitable (for protection, financial well-being, luck in love, etc.), and as runes are studied, you can gradually add new links to the chain that have stronger and more complex energy.

How to work with runes: types of runes, combinations and rates

Working with runes involves combining them. You should start with simple bets (learn and figure out how to work with runes):

Betting on love

One of the simplest, but no less effective staves. It serves to strengthen relationships between lovers and improve personal life.

Becoming a lover is necessary to strengthen your personal life

Runes required for the combination and their use:

• Gebo (symbolizes a man’s feelings towards a woman).
• Dagaz (symbol of harmony and unity in relationships).
• Gabo (similar to Gebo, only from the female side: a woman’s love for a man).

Betting on financial success

In this case, symbols are used to denote income, money, profit and wealth. Required runes and their description:

• Fehu (is a symbol of money itself).
• Soulu (denotes a stream flowing to the owner of the rune).
• Inguiz (an integral sign symbolizing the potential development that is necessary to retain the income that has arrived and further implementation in this direction).

Standing up for defense

This is a collection of symbols related to protective and protective. Can be applied to personal documents or any other item that is constantly with a person. Using symbols for protection:

• Thurisaz (the main symbol in this list, suppressing negative energy from others).
• Algiz (serves to minimize its own energy losses).
• Isa (determines one’s own calmness and eliminates aggression within the person himself).

Beginners already understand how to work with runes, so next we will talk about more complex combinations - runograms. All the following staves are suitable for those people who have already wondered whether runes work, and now their main goals and objectives in symbolism are called the study of runes and their actions.

Combination for luck

In complex stakes you cannot do without a visual aid. This is what what a person will end up with should look like:

A combination of runes for good luck (a visual aid of what a person should get by collecting all the runes)

Upon first glance, this collection of runes seems complicated, but upon further examination and detailed analysis, it turns out that there is nothing particularly complicated. What runes were used:

• Gebo (used to attract good luck in relationships with other people, to establish contact with others), used three times.
• Soul (consonant with the English “soul” - soul, symbolizes vital energy and strength, as well as insight), used twice.
• Vunyo (attracts positive emotions, joy and fun into life), also used twice.
• Ansuz (promotes the fulfillment of desires, attracts luck and fortune, increases the number of opportunities and chances, gifts of fate), was used twice.
• Otal (is a sign of a person’s very personality and his independence, works like a magnet).
• Dagaz (brings harmony and unity, prepares for future changes and calms the human soul).
• Algiz (this is a very important, concluding element that is necessary for the correct collaboration of all runic hieroglyphs and their protection).

Combinations for financial well-being for practitioners

It looks a little more complicated than the previous version for beginners, but it also works more efficiently. How do these runes work? The same as in the simplified version, only in full force, because it is based on the same symbols:

• Inguz (a sign of prosperity that comes into a person’s life) is used as many as four times.
• Laguz (strengthens and stabilizes cash flow, bringing it to a smooth, constant level).
• Teyvaz (removes obstacles and opens the way for financial flow).
• Algiz (covers and protects a person, serves to ensure income security).
• Evaz (a guiding rune that leads a person to capital and indicates the correct direction of movement).
• Dagaz (harmonizes income in a person’s life, teaches to live with them in unity and harmony).
• Mannaz (in this case means the person-performer himself).

It’s clear how to work with runes to improve the quality of life, now let’s talk about introducing new opportunities into it. Fulfillment of desires with the help of runes is quite possible if the combination is followed correctly:

Magic becoming for the fulfillment of desires (visual aid of the combination)

There is no need to be afraid, in reality everything is not so difficult. What symbols are used:

• Kano is used here inside and outside the runograms (internally it symbolizes the goal itself, the dream to which a person strives, its dominance over the others; external Kano is a sign of bringing a cherished desire to life).
• Inguz (this is the origin of desire, a seed that develops and opens under the influence of other symbols).
• Soulu (breathes life into the plan and fills it with energy).
• Evaz (ensures movement and continuous development of desire, leads a person to its fulfillment).
• Dagaz (a symbol of the changes occurring in the life of a performer during the period of realizing a dream).
• Vunyo (joy and satisfaction brought by the fulfillment of cherished desires).
• Perth (opens the gates of energy flows and clears the roads for the implementation of plans).
• Raido in this combination is also used in two forms: direct and mirrored (the direct form means direct paths leading to implementation, and the mirror one means roundabout ones), thus all possible methods of development are involved.
• Ansuz (symbolizes inspiration and faith that the outcome will definitely be positive).

Runic staves do not always lead to something specific; sometimes they only help to correctly determine the direction of movement.

Combination of bets to make the right choice

How to work with runes, and which ones to choose to make the right choice at a turning point:

• Vunyo (symbolizes the decision itself, is the head of the composition), used twice.
• Ansuza (awareness and informativeness, faithfulness in decision-making and a correct view of the situation), is also used twice.
• Perth (symbol of diversity of possibilities, range of options).
• Mannaz (the human performer himself).

You can only find out whether runes work or not by trying them on yourself. Runic images may not bring the desired result or, even worse, cause harm if they are used incorrectly.

After studying the information in the article, you can find out how to use runes correctly. To do this, you need to tune in to the right, “working” mood. Which implies detachment from distractions and focusing on the issue of interest.

A ritual with runes, like any other, will not work if the performer does not believe in the magical abilities of the actions being performed and does everything without confidence in a positive outcome. There are also runic staves for the evil eye or damage, but they relate to black magic, which worsens a person’s energy and his aura.
