5.0 out of 5 stars Cute, helpful book, May 27, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Runes (Predictions Library) (Hardcover)
Although this is a small book, Runes is crammed with wonderful illustrations, helpful info for each Rune, and some obscure associations and rune casts. The book begins with an introduction to the runes, and a brief introduction to Norse mythology. The history of the Runes follows, covering such info as magick, the coming of Christianity, and the Old Norse language. Runes is then separated into Frey's Aett, Hagal's Aett, and Tyr's Aett, with detailed info and an illustration for each rune. The next section of the book deals with Runic divination and Runic Magick. Casting the Runes is described, along with these rune casts: Three-Rune, Six-Rune, Seven-Rune, Cross, Celtic Cross, Sigel, and Peorth. Rune script and bind runes are then explained in detail.

Finally, this delightful little book ends with gemstone, flower, and tree associations for each rune. I recommend this book for those interested in the Runes, their history, and many uses.
