Runes
Runes are ancient symbols, used mainly by the Germanic peoples of Northern Europe, such as the Vikings, Anglo-Saxons and Goths. These symbols are not only characters of an alphabet, but also carry a strong spiritual and esoteric charge, being used in various magical and divinatory practices.
The spiritual perspective of runes is based on the belief that each symbol represents not only a letter or sound, but also a cosmic or divine force. These symbols were associated with Norse deities and natural powers such as Thor, Odin or Yggdrasil, and their use in rituals and divination was believed to bring guidance, protection and wisdom.
In divination, runes are used for self-knowledge and guidance, it is known as “rune casting”.
This process involves throwing or placing runes on a surface and interpreting the resulting configuration to gain answers to questions or gain clarity on a situation. Interpretation of runes can be complex, involving both the symbolic meaning of each character and the relationships between them within the arrangement.
In the mystical realm of subtle energies, runes are used in magical practices for protection, healing, good luck and manifesting wishes. It is believed that inscribing or wearing runic symbols can attract positive energies or amplify magical intentions.
