| Rune Stone Reading |
| Rune stones are rooted in Norse culture. It was to the Norse that their Father God, Odin, presented the Runes after hanging suspended from the Tree of Knowledge for nine days. Runes have always held power. It was the power of the writing of the runes that gave strength and power to agreements made. Each Rune not only represented a sound or letter, it also carried a power or force with it. Pacts sealed with the writings of the Rune were believed to be doubly bound. We use stones upon which each of the Elder Futhark symbols are carved. What we use as “Rune Stones” for a modality are rather a misnomer. As a bit of a history lesson, Rune Stones do exist in a truer, more accurate form. They were literally exactly what the name implies, but instead of just a single Rune on a stone, they were normally erected to denote a specific occurrence or happening, the event carefully spelled in the stone in Runes. They were also used to signify boundaries, seal agreements and contracts, and, true to the Viking nature, a bit of personal grandeur. When a pact was written in the Runes it was believed to have the weight of the Gods behind it because it was from Odin that the Runes came and many Runes are named after members of the Norse Pantheon. |
You can find out about our Rune Stone Readings here. |
In our readings, the Runes help guide us to through the reading as we answer your questions and discuss your particular issues. We may do a formal spread (where there is a specific meaning in regard to where the Rune lays in a spread), or we may do a free-form. A “free-form” is where we have the Runes in a pouch and essentially work them with our hands while we talk with you. As specific questions or issues arise during the reading we will pull either one or numerous Runes from the bag depending on the situation. This also facilitates us being able to feel the power in the Runes directly without preconceived notions or desires on our part, allowing for a more honest, correct and true reading. |
| rim and was rich in art, history, poetry, writing, politics and more. They were an industrious people with strong family ties, deep social and spiritual beliefs, and artist of excellent skill. Well, yeah, they were pretty good with those sword and boat things too…but everybody knows about that stuff. It speaks highly of the Viking character that one of their most notable achievements, a written language that can still be read and understood today, they ascribe to the Highest in their Pantheon of Gods. For the Vikings the Runes were always in some way more than just figures carved in stone. They held power. They held individual meaning. Each Rune is unique as is each Rune’s individual message. NOTE: We find Rune Stone readings to be exceedingly helpful in regard to questions about competition, work issues and family issues from outside of the household. |
| Remember that the Runes were developed by the Vikings, a culture that has been largely misunderstood until fairly recently. Although definitely a warrior culture, they didn’t wear horned helmets and sing “spear and magic helmet” ala Bugs Bunny cartoons and bad Victorian era woodcuts. They did have a culture that spanned the northern Atlantic |
