Rune Reading by Magus
A Rune Reading uses a set of glyphs or symbols that form specialized alphabets. These hail ancient Germanic and Scandinavian peoples. Three runic alphabets are currently in use. They are the Elder Futhark, the Anglo-Saxon Futhorc and the Younger Futhark.
The runes are similar to Hebrew, they carry not only a name and a symbol but a meaning.
We draw them from the lot bag and cast them to answer questions. I interpret the symbols and the order they’re in. Patterns they create and their proximity to the querent (you) tell stories, herald blessings and give warnings.

The runes differ from astrology and tarot in terms of their symbolism and the tones that they set. Runes have a more primal energy, harkening back to harsher styles of living and reminding us that we have it pretty easy, these days.
The glyphs are those of the cattle that sustain life for a tribe and the ice which threatens it. They are the life giving sun and the warmth of the mother who nurtures the child.
Unlike the Swords and Disks, Wands and Cups of the tarot, runes deal in hail and horses and torches. There are some similarities in runes such as Wunjo, meaning joy, to the 9 and 10 of Cups in the tarot and the Sun card to Sowilo.
Yet the runes contain mysterious ideas like Pertho, the bag that may hold serendipity and it may hold serpents. Simple concepts such as “need” are here, in the figure of Nauthiz and journeys are shown in the figure of Raido.
When the situation calls for a primal, gut level determination of life and death matters, the runes show where your next step lies.
