The Basics of Runes
(c) 2007-8.  METAmigo, LLC.  All Rights Reserved.
    RUNES -- the word "Rune" stems from an ancient northern
    European language, and means "a secret thing, a
    mystery," comes from this stem.  Each Rune has a Symbol,
    a Name, a Force and a Meaning and a Spiritual Heritage
    (or "Family").  Runes are the Magical Lore of ancient
    times.

    HOW TO USE RUNES:

Some people use runes by laying them out flat face down and laying their
hand over them and 'feeling' which one is the right one to pick up. The
left hand is to receive ( in right handed people)

There are several layouts, one is like the tarot layout. That is , you
pick three runes and the first is your past situation, the second rune
you draw is your present situation, and the third rune you draw is your
future outcome, action or situation.

Some people also like to just choose a rune by blindly picking one out
of the rune bag. This is the method I usually prefer, only because it is
the quickest and it gives me something to think about pertaining to my
question.

Runes are to be kept in a special bag to keep protected and when
beginning a 'relationship' with your new runes they should be kept close
to you to acquire your personal energies.

Remember, always use PROTECTION when using any TOOL of DIVINATION.
