The Rune magic - my experiences

 


I have been writing this article at various stages for some time now because a lot has been written about runes magic. And there is no point in writing something that has been written elsewhere, nor in humorously compiling more things written elsewhere. And precisely because there is quite a lot of quality literature, I can jump right to the point. I may explain something to someone, or I disgust someone else, but I describe part of how I work. If something significantly helped me to fulfill my big dreams in magic, then rune magic. A few years ago, when I started with her, I wouldn't have said that …

In runes magic, I follow two principles:


1. less is more than it may seem at first glance,

2. Until the runes and their groups are mastered, it is not advisable to make the bindrune.¨

It's quite annoying to run the rune by the rune and start using them gradually. There are really a lot of them. Even if you only have a futhark of 16 or 18 runes. For the magic application, I use the standard 24-run Old Norse futhark, because it works great for me. I use the others for comparison and study. I assume that everyone who practices runic magic has a futhark according to personal preference as a basis because it fits him and the others somehow engage as needed or not. So far, I have not found a situation in which 24 runes would not be enough or, on the contrary, I would miss them.

Endurance is probably the most tested trait in the beginning. There are so many reasons to keep only a few runes from the whole set .... but the Rune is not just one, but a whole set, where each of them has its irreplaceable role and they work properly when they are together.

Getting used to names, and their shapes, being able to draw them, and instilling them in memory. Then slowly gradually simple qualities, to write to the runaway of your vision. At rest run the rune, maybe until six, then stop a little and do something else for a while. It takes more reps. Because you can't take everything about the rune right away, there's a lot to get used to.

Reading about the runes, and their meaning, and getting inspired, it already wants the right author who suits you personally. If someone does not do rune magic and writes about runes, it is not suitable for those who want to practice runes magic. I do not mean academics, on the contrary, their knowledge can be very inspiring in magic, but various runic fortune tellers. This level is not about rune magic. It is not that I judge people who understand runes in this way. It's just not about rune magic.

If you do magic at home for yourself and you don't have anyone within your reach who uses runes magic, it's a bit more complicated, but not impossible. If you have some experience in magic, once you recognize the runes, there is no reason why they should not work in at least some aspects where you are living with the runes.

How to use runes correctly ... it's about choosing the approach that suits you. Each of us works a little differently. It is not a question of who, when, and what wrote about the runes, if you are interested in the runes, this will pack up in time. It's about finding the courage to start working with them. The beginning of each will look a little different. If you have a good visualization, you will start with it, someone with a sound, a key, or you will try to write something in the runes, will try to engrave them. It is important to set up a relationship with each rune and then get to know each other. Or vice versa …

A single rune can do a lot on its own. Being a rune minimalist, even if you also give ties, is out of the question. Sometimes 3 runes are needed, I don't mean a bindrune, but the rune-the rune-the rune. When you recognize the runes, it starts up almost on its own.

Until you manage to use 3 runes to solve situations, there is no point in rune binding. Only then is it appropriate to move to the bindrune. You either create it yourself or it is invented for you by someone who cares about you, has an open heart for you, and, of course, has space for these things. It's more real and better than just a job. But if you don't know your futhark yet and solve situations with 3 runs, it would be appropriate for him to activate the link for you. The difference between the placebo effect and the onset of the bindrune is incredible.

Even rune magic requires a lot of emotion. Being able to connect to the rune, know which aspect of it we want to use exactly in a given situation. How much power is used ... It already requires a bit of shamanic-free style. The more rigid we are, the more energies will be bound and their effect will be somewhat difficult to adjust.

Álfar, gnomes, and dwarfes

LAH-SAH invitation  As I began the magical work of contacting Álfar, I was amazed at how quickly they demonstrated examples of our collaboration directly in material reality on two specific issues (my body and my garden). It was very much a "wow effect" in both. Sure, I have a lot of rocks in my garden... I didn't understand why these amazing creatures are called dwarves or gnomes, after all, it only spoils the possible contact with them. Of course, I held a radical view, only "Álfar", because it corresponded to my amazement and gratitude. Today I keep my radicalism for my personal approach, and let others choose. So, let's do it. I would like to start by saying that if one expects strict classification and clarity from collections of fragments of Norse mythology, i.e. Eddas, one should start looking at other things than Norse magic (actually magic). Nor is it unambiguous from the point of view of folkloristics. We don't have the original Norse sources p...

The Nine Doors of Midgard (by Edred Thorsson)

  In August 2019, I wrote for the Czech reader about my experience of working with the Nordic magic manual in a situation where people knew of me as a practitioner of Khemetic magic (heka), but not so much as a practitioner of runes and rune magic. I have described a bit of my journey and also the contribution of this book to my personal journey. I am now translating this post into English.  I had always associated runes only with paganism, and although I was somehow attracted to them, I could not find my way to them. My beginnings were 8 years ago when I discovered with Guido von List that they are perfectly intertwined with the material plane and can be used for many things. But Guido was only an introduction for me, not a systematic learning of rune magic, which was what I was interested in a priori. By magic I always imagined a functional system independent of the Pantheon, because entities, whatever they may be, are always a bonus and a benefit, not magic itself. And...

The Path to the Nord Star is open (Daniel)

My path to Nordic magic was not so romantic in the beginning. It is romantic yet. I am describing my way to this wonderful path in this article.    At first, these were attempts to perceive the gods I understood as intelligent entities, not as phenomena of nature or some clusters of energies. My period of trying to find something has lasted a few years. I have gone into nature and performed libations for the gods. I have to say that from the beginning I gravitated towards the god Týr, without a logical explanation for it, only my feelings. Pretty soon after that, I made my wooden rune pendants. But since I was not adept at magic, they had no magical charge. They just didn't work. So far I have only obtained information from the Internet. After a while, I got some information about runes from one person trying to be popular, especially among the pagan community. Unfortunately, the information provided about the runes was often out of step with their standard meaning. A person w...
