Norse Runic Magic, The Meaning of the Futhark Runes, Divination and Rune Casting
Brittany Nightshade, the author of the popular “Book of Shadows” spellbook series, has released this Runic Handbook for those who would like a compact resource detailing the Elder Futhark Runes and their meanings. This simple beginners handbook is a great reference guide for anyone wanting to familiarize themselves with the meaning behind the Futhark Runes for purposes of Divination, Rune Magick, etching, or if you just want to learn more about these ancient Norse symbols.
The runes are the written letters that were used by the Norse and other Germanic peoples before the adoption of the Latin alphabet in the later Middle Ages. Unlike the Latin alphabet, which is an essentially utilitarian script, the runes are pictographs of some of the most powerful forces in the cosmos. In fact, the word “rune” and its cognates across past and present Germanic languages mean both “letter” and “secret/mystery.” The letters called “runes” allow one to access, interact with, and influence the world-shaping forces they symbolize. Thus, when Odin sought the runes, he wasn’t merely attempting to acquire a set of arbitrary representations of human vocal sounds. Rather, he was uncovering an extraordinarily potent system of magic.
The Runic Handbook covers all 24 Futhark Runes and has a section on common Nordic symbols and their meanings including the Vegvisir, Mjolnir, Yggdrasil, The Valknut, The Helm of Awe, and The Triple Horn of Odin. Includes chapter on Divination and Rune casting. In the back of the book are large images of each Rune and Symbol with a blank backside for each image so you can write your own notes or even create your own Rune Magick Rituals.

Just a clear, concise book without being overwhelming. I found just what I was looking for.

Straight to the point
Very quick read, straight to point of each Rune. Doesnât get bogged down in origins like many other tomes regarding Runes. The addition of full page copies of the runic symbols seems unnecessary and perhaps done simply to pad out the page count a bit. Still informative.

Disappointing
There are no pronunciation keys and the book was apparently not proofread. There are mulitple instances where the runes are referred to as ruins. It reads like a book for a 5 year old and there are no citations.

What the h is this. I was expecting more than a quick google research. Half of the book gives informations on the runes. But some informations are very little, and/or almost false. The âviking compassâ is not a viking compass but a protection sign for sailors against storms and hails and misfortune that could happen during sailing. I DO NOT RECOMMEND AT ALL .The other half of the book is just pages with the runes drawn slightly bigger than the previous page. With nothing else. Are you serious?
