As with any rune casting, try to clear your mind of all but the issue in question, before asking the runes your question. This rune spread consists of five runes, placed in a cross formation. This is done for you at this site. The underlying belief of this layout is in reincarnation, though one does not have to subscribe to the beliefs of reincarnation to employ this format. In fact, I have used it as an alternative for the five rune spread on occasion, this yields a metaphorical or pseudo-reincarnation schema for the current issue. In any event, this is done for you at www.TikkiWeb.net.
From right to left through the center the stones are conveyed as follows:
1. Birth and Childhood
2. Your Present
3. Future in this Life
Followed by the bottom stone
4. Past Life
And finally the top stone
5. Next Life
