Download or read book The Runes A Human Journey written by Kari Tauring and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2007-08 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asking where the runes come from is a bit like asking in what year did Adam and Eve leave the Garden of Eden? Yet, they are connected questions. Linguistically, runes come from Phoenician roots that split into Greek and Italic to eventually form the runes with Hebrew and Arabic on the other side of the family tree. This is the Indo-European Family of Languages. The languages and the stories they tell are connected at the core and this book attempts to weave them back together. Mythology that is equally as ancient is essential to understanding the runes. You will find the stories of Norse mythology, Eastern philosophy, and even Native American traditions fleshed out in the Glossary of this book. Because it is all connected.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you want to learn everything about Norse Mythology? Do you want to know about Norse Gods? Do you want to know what runes are and what their meaning is? Or how can you use them? Do you wish to know the famous Viking's beliefs and stories? The best-preserved form of the ancient common Germanic mythology, which also includes the closely related Anglo-Saxon mythology, is Norse mythology. In turn, Germanic mythology originated from older Indo-European mythology. Norse mythology refers to the mythical framework in Scandinavia during and around the Viking Age. The Nordic mythological universe is both intricate and extensive, with a creation story where the first gods murder a giant and convert his body parts into the globe. Many kingdoms spread out under the World Tree Yggdrasil's final destruction of the known world in the Ragnarök. Its polytheistic pantheon, which the one-eyed Odin leads, encompasses a large number of various gods and goddesses who were worshipped in ancient Scandinavian cultures. The book has two parts, and it includes topics like: The Gods of Norse Methodology Ragnarok Runic deviation Runes in Modern Magic Runic inscription and meanings And many more exciting topics! Runes are a collection of stones, wood, or other objects with holy symbols carved into them. Each rune has its narrative to tell. Runes may convey your life's tale, whether strewn across a surface, taken from a bag, or meticulously placed out in patterns. The earliest runic script, known now as the Elder Futhark, was developed to satisfy the demands of the newly forming languages as these dialects grew more different from the original Proto-Germanic. Runes were introduced to different runic scripts to represent new sounds that entered the languages, new runic symbols represented existing sounds, and some runes were removed entirely. So what are you waiting for? Click on the buy button and start your journey of Norse Mythology and runes!

Download or read book Queering the Runes written by Siri Vincent Plouff and published by Weiser Books. This book was released on 2024-11-04 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Queering the Runes is a contemporary, inclusive, and forward-thinking approach to the runes that focuses on finding queer experience, life, and joy in the Elder Futhark. Siri comes to the runes as a queer, nonbinary reader, and presents a path for reclaiming the ancestral wisdom and mystery of the runes in a way that can provide insight and understanding of their sacred nature for masculine, feminine, and nongendered aspects of self. Written as a love letter to the runes, the gods, and the people who follow the Nordic path, Queering the Runes presents an alternative approach to the runes—one that creates a gentle container for those who want to follow this heathen path. Based on the author’s personal gnosis, as well as deep academic research on runes and Nordic culture, this book explores the root culture of the runes, both in terms of myth and of lived, real folkloric experience, and paves the way for understanding how to work with runes disencumbered from patriarchy and white supremacy. Siri Vincent Plouff presents the traditional meanings of the runes, then helps the reader to queer the runes in their own way. Included are the lore associated with each rune, exercises to apply them to modern life, activities to engage with the runes (layouts, castings, and galdr), and advice on how to use the runes for divination. Throughout, the author provides journal prompts meant to help the reader channel the energy of specific runes, to get to know their energy, as well as to use the runes to help them move forward in a journey of self-discovery. Queering the Runes seeks to blow open perceptions of the runes, exploring them as active, living symbols available to all, as well as the inherent connection with ancestral magic that comes with rune work.
Download or read book Raising the Runes written by Jeremy R. J. White and published by . This book was released on 2015-02-01 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Odin is the ancient (All Father) god of the Germanic tribes of Europe and the runes are his language--the same words and sounds that echo within modern English. Jeremy White's adventures with the runes started long ago, in a world that no longer exists, a world of lies, cheating, gambling and excesses of many kinds. It was in the darkness of these days that the runes called to him. They runes provided a place for Jeremy to escape to, a place where he could see Odin and speak to him through the eyes and ears of the crows that watched over him from the trees. These mystical rendezvouses would be kept secret from the rest of the world, for the characters of the pantomime Jeremy played in would never understand the spiritual forces that were calling him. It was when this house of cards collapsed around his feet and the very foundation of his existence was questioned, that Odin and the runes came to guide him, to save Jeremy and show him a better way. Jeremy White's intention with this short book is to help reconnect the link to our ancient lineage. To have the runes open doorways and reveal mysteries to you, as working with the runes has done for him. Be bold, be brave, be especially open-minded and remember all the things you find upon the path of the journey. Every man or woman's runic path is completely different because it is an inward journey of self-discovery. The runes are keys that can unlock doorways to one's hidden depths and magical worlds. They see your secrets, recognize your fear and tap into your unknown potential.

Download or read book Fire and Rain Answering the Rune s Call written by Sara Annon and published by First Edition Design Pub.. This book was released on 2019-01-18 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This series rises out of my personal journey with the Runes that began during a Mask Dance workshop in Northern Germany, the birthplace of the runes. During the week I spent in a lovely seminar house secluded in among the trees bordering the heather of the Lunebergerheide, I found myself tasked with telling the story of the Runes as one of creation, not destruction. We used shamanic drumming and rattling to drive the visionary state and a specific body posture to guide our experience. My time was spent deep in a philosophical discussion with the energetic field of the Runes. It was impressed on me that the two fundamental distortions in the historical practice of Runes were the suppression of sexual energy in Christianity and the Germanic tribe's practice of ritual killing to gain personal power. I was shown how this combination inherently leads to atrocities. My first step was to seek out any creation stories I could find that were related to the runes. Somewhat to my surprise, I did not find any direct or obvious correlations between the runes names and the stories. In fact, the use of the runes as an alphabet turned out to be driven by the Christian Church. Then I looked into the current practice of Rune Stances and found their origins were both recent and suspect. Along the way, I had to admit that if the creation story of the runes was readily accessible, they would not have had to grab hold of an ignorant mixed-blood New Mexican to tell their tale. What I had to offer was my own idiosyncratic view of the situation. Since I had experience with ecstatic trance postures, I wondered if rune shapes corresponded with ancient ecstatic body postures. Once I turned towards the much older and more mysterious visionary roots of the Runes, my path to a runic story of creation began to open. I ended up with a mosaic of a sacred World Tree made of ancient bits and pieces. I hope they can open creative experiential doors for those drawn to work in the runic realms.
