ABOUT
Runes Divination
Runes divination, or Runecasting, is an ancient form of divination using symbols from the Runic alphabets, often associated with Norse, Germanic, and Anglo-Saxon traditions. These symbols, called runes, are carved onto stones, wood, or other materials and are believed to hold spiritual and magical meanings.
How Runes Divination Works
Runecasting involves interpreting the symbols of runes to gain insight into a question, situation, or future events. Unlike fortune-telling, it is more about exploring paths and understanding situations.
Uses of Runes Divination
- Guidance: Provides insights into personal challenges, relationships, and decisions.
- Self-Reflection: Encourages deeper understanding of oneself.
- Energy Work: Some use runes in rituals, meditation, or spellwork to manifest intentions.
