Taking Up The Runes: A Complete Guide To Using Runes In Spells, Rituals, Divination, And Magic
Description
Although many of us first encountered runes in J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the
Rings, this sacred alphabet is by no means a fabrication for books or movies.
Similar to Hebrew letters in the sense that each symbol contains a meaning
that transcends its original function as a letter, the runes are practical,
flexible, and effective symbols with a variety of uses. Today, the best known
application of rune lore is divination: chips or stones marked with runes are
drawn, cast, or laid out in patterns like tarot cards. In Taking Up the Runes,

comes from inside ourselves when we find the wisdom and power within each
symbol and internalize them. Read more
