A Brief Overview of Runes

These pages and runes in general are a not psychic readings. They do not give absolute answers. They can be fun. They can be thought provoking. Runes should be considered a tool for personal growth and personal understanding. For only through self awareness can one truly interact with the world around us. They are similar in usage to the Book of Changes (also known as the I Ching), in that they are both ways of opening one's mind to new modes of thought.

The runes are meant to be a reflection of the person using them, as well as the world around oneself. The belief system of the early users of the runes was that everything in the world was alive, and that it must be treated with respect. The runes were a way of "speaking" with this world. In this respect the relationship is still the same, except that now they are typically used to put the individual in touch with the emotional and psychological aspects of the world around them.
