Meanings
of Runes |
The word "rune" means "whisper"
or "secret", runes are thought by some to be a way of
interacting with both the spirit and the living world.
The runes should be drawn from either a box or leather pouch where
they should normally be kept. After drawing the stones you should
read it depending upon whether the rune is reversed or not as
it will have a bearing upon its meaning and the reading.
