This review is from: Rune Magic: The History and Practice of Ancient Runic Traditions (Paperback)
In these pages Nigel Pennick not only gives you the history of all the known rune rows with their divinitory meanings, but adds in correspondences to Northern Deities, colors, trees, herbs, numerology, etc. Practical uses of runes such as sigils and bindrunes are also covered. Be aware though that this book was reissued by Thorsons in 1995 with the title "Secrets of the Runes". There is no change to the contents as far as I can tell.Secrets of the Runes: Discover the Magic of the Ancient Runic Alphabet

4.0 out of 5 stars Not Bad, August 6, 2000
This review is from: Rune Magic: The History and Practice of Ancient Runic Traditions (Paperback)
This is a really good book. It explores the runes and thier magick well, though if your just starting out, I'd wait until you've got a basic understanding first. I started with this book and found it to be a little confusing, but it is a must have for any collection.
