Review
"Ralph Blum's Runes are one of the world's great spiritual resources. They always speak to us from the depths of our own hearts."--Marianne Williamson, author of "A Return to Love"
"If we suffer from any universal disease, it is shallowness of imagination. "The Healing Runes "offers a remedy for that malady. Not just relief from anxiety, but profound gifts that signal the presence of soul-- intimacy, pleasure, beauty, love and piety."--Thomas Moore, author of "Care of the Soul"
"Blum and Loughan have created a unique, powerful and very practical tool for self-healing. Use it when you are in conflict or in pain. Or as a daily ritual to tap your inner wisdom. These Runes place the power to accelerate your healing in your own hands."--Harold H. Bloomfield, M.D., author of "The Power of 5"

Product Description
A decade ago the authors devised a system for consulting the runes as a contemporary oracle. Now, after further research, letters from rune users, and by following Rune reading methods, the authors have created a tool to help people in times of emotional, psychological and physical need.

now you get a complete set of runes with this book and they make it worth it before you even open the book! the runes are made of glass and have gold symbols. the book itself is a really good read, it explains completly how to use and read the runes. i recommend this book highly especially if you are looking for some good quality runes which are so hard to find these days at an affordable price.

This is one of the most amazing books that I've ever read, without a doubt,THE HEALING RUNES ,HAS PROFOUNDLY CHANGED MY LIFE. Six months ago, I was brutally raped and felt my life would/could never be the same!!! For the first few weeks I was at the rape crisis center EVERY day. Then one day in a group discussion, I asked if anyone could suggest a book or books that might help me in beginning the long journey back. Three women said almost at the same moment---THE HEALING RUNES. I got a cold chill and when the group ended, headed for my local bookstore. From the moment I held it, I felt something from just from holding it. I know it sounds silly, but it's true. Years ago, a friend had given me THE BOOK of RUNES, which I enjoyed for a number of years . At that point in my life I simply felt that I had outgrown it. I tucked it away until the recent event I mentioned earlier, AND THEN OUT OF HEAVEN'S GIFTS, A MOST CHERISHED FRIEND WOULD BECOME A PART OF MY LIFE-----THE ! HEALING RUNES. WHAT AN AMAZING GIFT. WHEN I GOT HOME FROM THE BOOKSTORE I REACHED INTO THE VELVET BAG OF RUNE STONES, AND PICKED THE FIRST OF MANY RUNES THAT WOULD SET ME BACK ON COURSE. I picked the 14th Rune, the Rune of ACCECPTANCE. The first paragraph left me with tears streaming down my face, and the hairs on my arm standing up in profound understanding that this little green book, with it's beautiful stones and passages ,had, without knowing me, hit a bullseye!!!!! The Rune of Acceptance said in the first paragraph, exactly what I needed to hear. "This is a Rune of major blessings, blessings received and blessings bestowed. Acceptance forms the foundation for loving yourself. Before you can rebuild your life, you must come to know the peace that accompanies self-acceptance, for out of that peace arises the willingness and the wisdom to greet each day with a quiet heart." This is most certainly a MUST READ BOOK for anyone going through any form of hea! ling. Healing from emotional, physical, spiritual, or psych! ological pain of ANY KIND. This is a very powerful little book that I take with me everywhere. Thank you both for this pearl of wisdom. I love the strength of the feminine voice, it was long overdue in your Rune series, bless you Susan, and thank you Ralph for bringing such a powerful voice to the Runes to represent all women. ESPECIALLY ME!!!!! BRAVO, IT'S A CONTEMPORARY MASTERPIECE, and a vital part of the lives of almost everyone I know, as I have gifted them all with it. M.K.T.
