From divination to magic—a beginner-friendly guide to runes

Discover a simple way to unlock the ancient power of runes. Digging deep into both history and mythology, The Beginner’s Guide to Runes serves as the perfect starting point for anyone interested in exploring these ancient and magical symbols.

Focused around the Elder Futhark (the oldest runic alphabet), this informative book offers a simple and effective path to bringing runes into your day-to-day life. Whether you want to gain insight into the future through divination or creating protective talismans, straightforward and concise instructions make them simple to understand.

The Beginner’s Guide to Runes helps you:

  • Explore the Elder Futhark—Get a complete breakdown—including meanings, magical uses, and more—of all 24 runes that make up this archaic alphabet.
  • Seek guidance—Learn how to practice the art of runic divination—a fortune-telling technique that calls on runes to provide insight into the future.
  • Master magic—From creating runescripts (straight-line arrangements) to bind runes (two or more combined into a single symbol), find out how this mystical script can be used to bring change to your world.

Read it in the runes—this book is the easiest way to get started with this unique form of magic.

Surprisingly great rune book

I didn't have high hopes for this book, and only listened to it because it was available with my Audible membership. I really enjoyed this book and rate it as five stars. The author does reference Diana Paxton and Edred Thorson, so for anyone that doesn't care for them or their work, this may not be a book for you. For anyone that is into the common, modern usage of Runes, whether beginner or more advanced, I think this is fantastic. It's not too short, it's not too long, and the section on each individual rune is excellent. The narrator was also good (phew!). As a result of listening to this book I have actually purchased a hard copy for my library.
