Product Description

Product Description
This text demonatrates how to interpret the ancient wisdom of the runes. "Rune" means secret or hidden, and the runes are believed to be a source of ancient magic, with divine and healing powers. By casting the runes, it is said you can see the outside forces affecting your life and interpret the course of action to be taken. This guide includes: how to cast and read the runes; runic yoga and runic numerology; and how to use the runes in meditation. The book seeks to unravel the mystery of the runes, thus enabling the reader to unlock the potential of the future.

About the Author
Nigel Pennick has studied the runes and practiced runic principles since 1960. He has written numerous books and papers on European folk traditions, customs and beliefs and has seen his work translated into nine languages. Co-founder of the influential magazine ARCANA, he has appeared on both radio and television in the UK.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent reference book for Runic history and variations, 25 Oct 2001
By A Customer
This is an excellent reference manual as well as cracking good read for anyone interested in the Runes. It covers all Rune variations, meanings and spreads etc. Furthermore, it goes beyond rune casting and meditation to include runic yoga and numerology... It certainly has a place on my bookshelf.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pennick Knows His Runes, 23 Oct 2008
By Ursula K. Raphael "Gideon's Mom" (Michigan, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a great book for someone making the leap from beginner to expert, as far as working with the runes. I have been studying the runes for over ten years now - reading dozens of rune books, and this has been one of the most detailed.

Lots of illustrations, and quite a lot of information on the history of runes, such as their evolution into different futharks & their many uses by different cultures.

Another great book by Pennick is Magical Alphabets: The Secrets and Significance of Ancient Scripts - Including Runes, Greek, Hebrew and Alchemical Alphabets, which has some of the same rune information.
