RUNES ARE AN ANCIENT ESOTERIC TRADITION

Therefore there is a lot more to Runes than giving readings and "Rune Stones"!

RUNE READINGS
A Correspondence Course - Lesson V
By Karl Hans Welz - Grand Rune Master - the Great, Time-less Brotherhood of Rune Masters

Divinatory Meanings of the Runes

The material that follows must be regarded as a basic alphabet from which you will form sentences. Until all the basic data, i.e., meanings of Runes, is thoroughly known there can be no insights or intuition from an inner manipulation of the meanings here listed. Insights based on a THOROUGH mastery of these basics can with confidence be allowed to enrich the hoard from which you draw your interpretations.

The divinatory meanings given here are to be considered as a bare skeleton to be fleshed out by the work and intuitions of the student.

It will be good practice to work through the meanings, Rune by Rune. Have the Rune in front of you, read up on the material that follows (the divinatory meanings), then read through the access keywords of the Runes (lesson 1 through 3), and finally read the stanza of the magical poem which relates to the Rune.

A practitioner who uses crystals will be astonished at the increase in perceptions brought about by an alliance of the Runes with the crystals. The hexagonal cross section of quartz, and the fact that all of the 18 Sacred Futhork Runes are derived from the geometry of the hexagon is the basis of an enormous increase in crystal power when it is associated with Rune images.

To one without any previous knowledge of other systems the Runes will speak clearly and succinctly. There is no limit to the intuitions available to one who reads the Runes with pure motives.

Rules for Rune Readings

Keep in mind what we mentioned before, that Rune readings tell you of the energies from the realms of creation that are at the roots of the past, present, and future of the situation about which you want to know. So Rune readings tell you what energies you may use from those realms to deal positively with the situation under examination. As such, Rune readings become a valuable tool for the advanced Rune Master.

NEVER use your Rune staves to give purely worldly readings by neglecting what Runes tell you about the deeper, spiritual side of the situation.

Before you lay out the staves the introductory ceremony will be very useful. It makes the vibrations right for a successful reading. Proceed as outlined in "Runic Ceremonials".

Place: Your altar (table), altar of the castle or lodge; best of all set up in a natural setting in a high energy place.

Best times: Hours of sunrise, high noon, hour before sunset, midnight.

Best days: Wednesday or Sunday, first day of a Runic period (Mal), sacred days, day before the birthday of the person for whom the reading is being done.

Direction: Look at the North . . .the location of YR and FA in the altar.

Clothing: Robe, or nude. Wear only metal objects that are meaningful, such as the Hammer of Thor, the Great Rune Talisman, dagger, or power rod.

Participants: Only those for whom the reading is being done may be present.

Diary: It is important to make notes of the operation and the interpretations in your diary, which is the best place for notes that must be of a confidential nature.
