Centuries ago, Norse people carved simple letters called runes, and each one carried its own symbolism. Runes: Your Personal Guide by Jan Budkowski introduces the twenty four symbols of the Elder Futhark for modern readers.
You will learn the meaning behind each rune, its links to Norse gods such as Odin, Thor and Freya, and how to use runes for divination and in magical spells. It includes an 18 by 24 inch wall chart, handy for learning the symbols at a glance. A great first book for anyone curious about runes, or a gift for a fan of Norse mythology.
Pin the chart up while you learn and keep the book close by for quick reference.
The Elder Futhark is the oldest runic alphabet, used by Germanic peoples from roughly the 2nd to the 8th centuries. Its 24 runes are named after the first six letters, f, u, th, a, r and k.
