What is a Rune Reading?

 Runes are the old written script used in Scandinavia before and the after the Viking age. The were created around 1 B.C. and were developed from an older Greek alphabet. The first letter of any word in Old Norse written with the Runes holds the power.  Ur (the letter in the chart below next to U) stands for the strength of the auroch which was an ancestor of our modern bulls. So all words relating to strength or cows would start with that letter like rodeo, cowboy, and dairy would start with Ur in old Norse. Pulling Ur would relate to your strength or another person's within the question asked of the reader.

The Scandinavian alphabet was called the Elder Futhark (named after the initial phoneme of the first six rune names: F, U, Þ, A, R and K) has 24 runes, often arranged in three groups of eight runes called an ætt^[2] (pl. aettir). In the following table, each rune is given with its common transliteration:

f

u

þ

a

r

k

g

w

h

Another factor held within the Scandinavian frame of mind is that there is 3 aspects to our world: The Past, The Present, and the Future. Within their culture they called the three goddesses who govern these principles were called the Norns. The city Nuremberg is named after them. The sister who governs the future is called Skuld; our word should comes from her. They believed nothing was written in stone. A rune reading is much like algebra. A+B=C. If A is how you view the past, B is how you view the present they will add up to C which is your future. At any time you change your view of the past and change how you act in the present, you will change your future. So any Rune reading will only tell you what should happen. Like in quantum physics, observation changes everything; once you observe your past and present you have the choice to change your perception of the past and the way you act in the future. Then C is changed.

When studying the Runes, remember the definitions for each character that is less than two sentences is the most correct. Some books will write 2 pages of information about a rune like Ur, but it only means strength. In a reading it could refer that you will have the strength needed to find a new job.

There are many ways to cast a rune reading; no way is better than another. My favorite is to let the questioner pull their first Rune to get their energy into the question. Then I will continuing reading the Runes until I feel the answer was answered. Sometimes it is only a pause to get the questioner's input and I will continue again. Sometimes a single pull of the Runes will answer the question. Sometimes only 3 runes are needed to come up with the past, present, and future that are relevant to the question.

Old languages were used by merchants to keep track of inventory, tally sales, and for strategic planning to better business. Today the Runes might be the best form of divination for strategic planning. The Runic symbols apply to things that were found on a farm and how to run it for prosperity and happiness. So you can apply these principles to any in depth planning to take control of your life and pursue your goals. The Runes demand the questioner to become an active participant within their lives instead of being caught within a whirlwind of fate. So come to a Rune reader with a specific goal in mind with the questions you need answered to make that goal happen.
