I am unable to focus enough to make a formula for meditation for success in my latest endeavor.

I am trying to reach people to start a movement for peaceful change.

I will not spout my propaganda here out of respect for you all as Vitkys and wise people. I feel to much sorrow in my bones to feel anything more than the dread and fear that others are feeling.

I want to attract people and give them hope. Such a large goal requires a council less just line man. However if you could help me with a formula I would like to give it my best energies and thoughts.

Have been having severe anxiety in my meditations as of late.

Hello I have a random question that i'm having a hard time getting answers to on google..

Is it possible to combine 2 Othala Runes one is upside down the other right side, where the diamond part is on top of each other? IE: Where it looks like the Ingwaz symbol (the version that has the diamond center and 4 radial arms).

Would that make sense to combine Othala that way at all?

Does anyone want a rune reading as I need some practice?

Thank you

is this okay? I'm planning to burn them tomorrow cause they've been sitting in my wallet for a long time and I have a feeling I need to burn them to activate. (I'm using my own blood for the runes btw).

I'm sorry I also don't know if this is allowed here I'm new at this place.

BODY - ANSUZ.
I believe the Ansuz rune was pulled in my body or physical position to tell me, that I might need to have some important conversations soon, also I feel it is telling me I need to learn to slow down when I communicate and let my brain really process what I am about to say and also be a better listener. Ansuz may also be telling me to be aware of what I’m communicating to who which refers back to the previous sentence of think before you speak. Also I want to make an effort to not use foul language as much which ties into TIWAZ and the mind about self discipline and control.

Mind - TIWAZ TIWAZ in the mind position is interesting to me because the past few years I have been having a lot of inner turmoil and lack of self discipline over my mind which has led to procrastination and absent mindedness, also feelings of insecurity and self loathing. TIWAZ I believe showed itself in my mind position which is telling me to begin establishing order within my mind again, time to push out that which is not serving my well being and set order to chaos.

Spirit - FEHU The rune that appeared in my spirit position was FEHU. This made me feel happy that it seems my spiritual self is feeling the prosperity of all the work I’ve been doing to try and educate myself on these matters and the efforts I’ve been putting forth to live in a way that serves this part of myself are paying off. I hope this continues into the future and my spiritual self becomes more potent and capable. Fehu has also told me to help others prosper spiritually and be generous with my advice which can also be tied to the Ansuz rune in my physical position if I am to communicate advice well.

Im planning on making a full set but I started with one of my favorites Jera. They'll be Christmas (yule) ornaments for the season but casting runes in their next life!

If you're doing a cast where you just throw your runes onto a surface, how many do you typically throw? All of them? 9? A random handfull?

I've always done 9 for the religious significance (as have the other runecasters I know in real life), but I'm looking to branch out my practice a bit. Basically, I'm just curious.

Hi, I’m new to runes and I just want everyone’s’ general knowledge on each rune so I have a general idea as well.

Some great people suggested books and what people to stay away from but from what I gathered, everyone has their own interpretation or their own little twist.

So I’m just trying to figure out what works for me and trying to get to know my runes.

Hey everyone so I developed a kind of new reading method for myself using three runes trying to kind of divine a reflection on the mind, body, spirit and learn about the self and how the things we are feeling can guide us or warn us on how to approach moving forward in life.

I stack the three runes top to bottom

1st rune top position 2nd rune middle position 3rd rune bottom position

Then I create the interpretation going bottom to top. Going from body to mind to spirit.

This was my first time trying this reading and I’m still not 100% sure how to interpret it.

In my body position I drew hagalaz In the mind position I drew othala And in the spirit position I drew the blank rune (still not sure that I like using this rune)

Well this morning I woke up sick all of a sudden so that could be partly Hagalaz showing me a disruptive but quick change will affect me physically.

Having othala in my mind position is kind of confusing me at this point because, it has been showing up in A LOT of my readings and almost always in the middle as well. For now I am reading it as either my ancestors might be trying to reach me (I’ve never worked with ancestor spirits before). Or that my mind is still searching for Othala searching for a comfortable place or state where it can begin to form structure and put down roots.

The blank rune turning up in my spirit position is kind of telling my spirit could be searching for something that I’m not meant to understand right now (which maybe be tied to my othala interpretation) or that there is something coming in the form of fate for me spiritually.

Let me know what you think of this rune reading method and if you think I should make any changes to it or what you think would improve it. Thank you!

Hi there. Curious what the heck this means? A guy I dated briefly, had this tattooed on his arm and wouldn't tell me what it means? 🧐 wondering what's with all the secrecy lol

No matter how I turn this rune stone, it looks the same…and they said that NIED has a reversed meaning but I don’t know the difference.

Please help

I found this symbol next to my door in my backyard. I’m assuming it was the previous tenant as I moved recently into the new place but I was interested in what it could possibly mean. I only know enough about runes to know this was a ruin.

A person very dear to me has to undergo surgery, I would like to create a bindrune to help her in recovery and keep the evil away from her, could you recommend some runes to adapt to the situation? Thank you very much in advance

What do you think? There's 3 intentional runes but definitely quite a few unintentional ones.

I'm still learning runes meanings. But mentally I'm not in a good spot. So I created this bind rune and an affirmation to go along with every piece of it and one for the overall bindrune. How's it looking? Did I get my meanings right as far as my affirmations go? Can you find all the runes easily?

Saw these jet trails this morning. I see nauthiz and gebo. I have read the meanings. But would like other interpretations please.

Hello, I am looking into getting a rune set. I have been interested in a while and it seems like Freya really wants me to start a new form of divination. Where can I find good rune sets? Should I make them myself or buy them ? Does it matter ? Also which sets are best ? I know next to nothing about this form of divination.

Thank you for the help!

My partner just got back from Salem, MA and got me a cool new set of runes made from water buffalo horn or bone. What kind of reading should I do for my first with the new set? 5 rune suggestions would be appreciated.

Today I used for the first time a set of runes created by me, I asked if the path I was taking was right, I first took a single rune (Dagaz) and then I took another one to better specify (Gebo), later I wanted to take another one to be even more sure but I didn't have the same "feeling" as the ones before, I got Reversed Ehwaz. In general I see a good response behind this answer but I would also like to know someone else's opinion. The order is ᛞ - X - ᛖ (reversed) (not sure)

I don't do rune casting as often as I used to, life got busy, I have a two year old, it happens. Sorry for the rambling, I just wanted to share.

About three weeks ago, my two year old found my rune set and showed an interest in them. I helped him with a three rune pull, basic past, present, future. I didn't think too much about his reading at the time, I don't even remember what his past and present runes were. I got one of the books about runes I have and was showing him pictures. His future rune was an inverted/reverse jera. My first reaction was I should have at least a decade before that. I usually read inverted/reverse jera as a breakup, losing a friend, getting fired, some negative ending of a connection between people. Again, he's two. "Sorry we have to say bye bye to the tractor," doesn't qualify in my mind as inverted/reverse jera. So as a future pull, I thought I would have time to figure out how to parent a child/preteen with a breakup or loosing friends.

His daycare got shut down last week, allegations about a teacher (not his) in different room, and a failure of the daycare to report it in a timely fashion. It's been crazy busy, we contacted 11 other centers, got put on wait lists, were told they were all full. We did eventually get a new full time spot in a center that he seems to like, which is closer to our house.

It didn't hit me until about two hours ago, when I was picking up around the living room. His rune pull, the inverted/reverse jera as the future rune. His daycare being shut down, that would qualify as an inverted/reverse jera.

Again, sorry for rambling, I just wanted to share. I should probably be a bit more mindful of my pulls and the pulls/readings I do for others, just refocus a bit.

Lately I have been feeling the desire to begin a bond with the god Thor. I have been devoting the time I spend exercising to him as an offering, but tonight I had decided I’d like to do some divination on what kind of bond could be formed between Thor and myself.

I asked my main land/house spirit (it’s a long story on how they became both) to help me divine upon this question, and I drew the rune fehu. I am interpreting this as a good sign that my bond with Thor will be fruitful and has the potential to grow if I put in the effort (sharing of wealth). I made an offering of a pork chop and lit up a red candle.

Any thoughts or other interpretations are welcome

Ahoy everyone!

I am very new to performing divination with runes, but I have taken some time and effort into learning the elder futhark symbols and a basic understanding of what they mean as well.

The questions I have are less about the runic characters themselves and have more to do with the divination process. When I am doing a reading for myself I often find that I will pull a single rune, or do a three rune spread or something along those lines, but a lot of the time I do not really have a question or theme for the reading. How necessary is it to have a premeditated context for the reading such as a subject or question? Is there any good spreads or types of readings to do when you don’t have a specific question or something you need to divine about?

Also, is there a reading that is good to perform daily that has a sort of context attached to it?

I am in search of a sigil or rune that can help keep away bad energy. I work in a place where a lot of my coworkers are at each other, and I'd like to place a symbol above my door to keep away bad energies.

Ahoy everybody, I am just starting to learn to work with runes so I made my own set and have been doing some single rune pulls and trying to memorize all the elder futhark runes. I did my first three rune (past, present, future) rune pull. These were the runes. I’m not totally sure what to make of these.

I think my interpretation are kind of along the lines of, me coming back to my spirituality again and reconnecting the divine and spirits to my home (othala). I’ve also been working on my self and healing past wounds and mental illness pretty diligently into the present physically and spiritually (berkana). Finally in my future since I have been consistent with my practice these past months I feel I pulled Ansuz as my future rune because maybe the divine will recognize my efforts and open up to me.

I don’t really know how accurate my interpretation of this reading could be. I am not sure if I have it all wrong or am maybe just slightly off with one of my interpretations. Also how often do you all think a past present future rune pull is effective. How far into the past is the past rune usually reaching too & vice versa how far ahead do your future runes usually take to come into fruition or notice when they could have if you decided to take action to kinda change your future? As i said im new to divination especially with runes so any and all help is very much appreciated.

I am very new to rune casting and could use help in interpreting. I was drawn to doing the 3 rune cast (past, present, future). My question/intentions while drawing was "what I need to do to progress positively in love, wealth, health, and happiness. Any advice is appreciated.

This is how we do Eihwaz in Runic Alchemy.

• Tune into the Earth somewhere on the level of your belly and down. Feel it not only in yourself but also in the world around you.

• Slowly breathe out and along with this exhalation, slide the energy of Earth down deeper to the world of Fire, somewhere below your feet.

This is the bottom-left descending bar of the rune.

• During the small pause after that notice, you feel a little extra pressure in your head. It's because you changed the balance in your system. You reduced Earth so new fresh Fire arrived instead.

• Make a gentle slow inhale and feel your entire vertical axis which stands across all the levels starting from Fire, through Earth, Emptiness in the middle, Air, and Water on the top. This is a vertical bar of the Eihwaz rune.

• After doing so you will find yourself on the way to a new balance and that small extra pressure steps down from the head.

• With a second slow relaxed exhalation, let the Water fall onto your head and flow down through yourself.

This last step is the last, top-right descending bar.

Breathing helps to manage attention, and doing Eihwaz step by step helps understand each of its aspects.

But after some practice, we want and can do everything as a single steady holistic process, not dependent on breathing and without causing temporal pressure and energy fluctuations.
We want and can achieve true balance.

Balance both static, as represented by the vertical axis of simultaneity.
And dynamic, as represented by two diagonal bars, compensating continuous changes made by each other.

When you catch this triple state of Eihwaz by holding an energy egg in your hands, notice how the vertical axis of Eihwaz resonates with your vertical axis, so you may start feeling you are holding yourself in your hands. This bigger you, who holds you between palms, probably longer than you think, and watching your life, who is it?

I’m new to casting runes and did a consecration ceremony binding them to myself and charging them. If someone else wanted to cast, would the results be affected if they used my runes or would they work all the same? Not sure if it matters
