The word "Runes" means "mystery" and came from the root of ancient word "to hide". Roots of this word are present also in the modern languages: in German raunen - "to whisper", in -Latvian runat - "to speak", in Finnish runo - "poem, incantation". Even our Russian word "to store", most likely, is connected with this magic root. Runes are the magic and alphabetical signs, which were carved on the stones, and cut out on the tree. Many runic signs have early origin - they go back to the magic symbols of the Celtic priests- druids, from whom subsequently were sent to the German, and then to the Scandinavian tribes. Runic magic is extremely many-sided. According to the legend, each rune has the sacred origin and is the sacred sign, it also possesses the specific reserve of magic power and the ability to connect us with the highest power. The main thing for you to remember is that for the successful use of these miraculous signs it is necessary for deep personal relation to each rune to be present. Be as attentive as possible to the sense concluded in them to ensure that each of runes would cause any personal means and associations. Only then, runes will sufficiently and accurately describe the situation, in which you are, and which will follow it. It is possible to turn to the runes with any question. You can be informed in the situation that interests you, or you can also ask for the council of the higher power, it’s all up to you. Try to be completely concentrated on your question. Guess-work with the runes is a question you ask the fate, and the gods, who regard with favor, or vice versa put you in the way of obstacles. It’s not reasonable posing such questions too frequently. Runes lie to those, who are not worthy of their answer. Therefore, clean your heart from idle curiosity and ask for the council of runes only in special cases. Only then, the truth will be opened to you. |  | |
