Review: A true practical guide to the runes! - I found this to be a good introduction to using the runes for divination. It is called a practical guide to the runes and there is not much information about the history of the runes or Norse mythology except that mentioned in the Introduction. The next section discussion making a set of runes, a rune pouch, and rune cloth. The next chapter discusses the runes in divination, where each rune's meaning, both bright-stave (upright) and merk-stave (reverse) is given. One thing the author did was she used the Norse names for many of the runes, but for others, the Anglo-Saxon names. In my opinion, she should have been consistent and used either Norse or Anglo-Saxon, but not both. The controversial blank rune (Wyrd) is discussed first, with the others in the Elder Futhark described in their usual order. The next chapter concerns principals of divination and rune layouts. She describes one-, three-, five-, and seven-rune layouts. I tried out the seven-rune layout concerning an issue I needed guidance about, and I found the result to be spot-on! I couldn't have picked a more insightful runecast! The later chapters discuss runes in magick, making talismans using runescripts and bindrunes, and ritual carving and consecration. Following that are seven appendices and a suggested reading list. This is my go-to rune book and I suggest giving it a read. It may become yours, too!
Review: Great book, very detailed! - This book is great for beginners. It has everything you need to know about runes how to use them and how to interpret their meanings! I would recommend this book for anyone who wants to get into rune divination!
