Divination runes We have received several questions about the runes as a method of divination, what is their meaning, how to consult and interpretation.
Here we are going to clarify all these doubts, but first it would be convenient to briefly explain the origin of the divinatory runes.
The word rune means learning to reveal secrets and its practice is based on the reading and interpretation of different symbols that made up the ancient Celtic alphabet, called futhark, whose knowledge was typical of magicians or druids. The ancient Goths, Scandinavians, Germans and English knew the power of runes.
Initially this alphabet was used by the peoples located in northern Europe, 2,000 years BC and was transformed as the Celts invaded other peoples of the continent. Around the year 450 BC, it was formed as it is currently known, by 24 letters and a blank symbol.
Each letter was acquiring a meaning very similar to the arcana in relation to the Tarot and was used as a divinatory system by the leading warriors who sought to know the events that could occur in battles.
In addition, the runes seek to penetrate the imagination to channel and organize what the person needs to achieve in terms of their goals, goals or dreams. That is, they try to rearrange energy processes and enhance moments of good circumstances or, on the contrary, block those that are badly influenced. Let’s see, next, how to consult the divinatory runes.

How to consult divinatory runes
Preparation before the consultation
It is necessary to carry out an internal preparation to be able to interpret the runes properly.
Therefore, it is recommended:
- – Light a stick of incense when making the consultation
- – Carry out a few minutes of meditation on the topic to be discussed
- – Provide a relaxed and calm environment.
- – Place a cloth on the surface where runes of the query are exposed
- – Understand that the runes do not give detailed answers to specific questions but rather advise and guide. For this reason, the questions that are intended to be formulated should be rather general. Even, sometimes, they do not answer on the requested topic. In this case, they try to draw attention to an important aspect that the consultant must take into account.

How to create your own runes
You can make the runes in your own home with rounded stones that can be found on the banks of a river or on the shore of the sea. One stone will be selected for each runic sign. The runic symbol is made only on one side of the stone. Likewise, it will be convenient to make a small cloth bag to store all the runes.
Another alternative is to make the runes on thick white cardboard. The cardboard is cut out in the form of small cards and a rune is drawn per card and on one side exclusively, leaving the other blank.
