Download or read book Myths of the Rune Stone written by David M. Krueger and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2015-10-01 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do our myths say about us? Why do we choose to believe stories that have been disproven? David M. Krueger takes an in-depth look at a legend that held tremendous power in one corner of Minnesota, helping to define both a community’s and a state’s identity for decades. In 1898, a Swedish immigrant farmer claimed to have discovered a large rock with writing carved into its surface in a field near Kensington, Minnesota. The writing told a North American origin story, predating Christopher Columbus’s exploration, in which Viking missionaries reached what is now Minnesota in 1362 only to be massacred by Indians. The tale’s credibility was quickly challenged and ultimately undermined by experts, but the myth took hold. Faith in the authenticity of the Kensington Rune Stone was a crucial part of the local Nordic identity. Accepted and proclaimed as truth, the story of the Rune Stone recast Native Americans as villains. The community used the account as the basis for civic celebrations for years, and advocates for the stone continue to promote its validity despite the overwhelming evidence that it was a hoax. Krueger puts this stubborn conviction in context and shows how confidence in the legitimacy of the stone has deep implications for a wide variety of Minnesotans who embraced it, including Scandinavian immigrants, Catholics, small-town boosters, and those who desired to commemorate the white settlers who died in the Dakota War of 1862. Krueger demonstrates how the resilient belief in the Rune Stone is a form of civil religion, with aspects that defy logic but illustrate how communities characterize themselves. He reveals something unique about America’s preoccupation with divine right and its troubled way of coming to terms with the history of the continent’s first residents. By considering who is included, who is left out, and how heroes and villains are created in the stories we tell about the past, Myths of the Rune Stone offers an enlightening perspective on not just Minnesota but the United States as well.

Book excerpt: The ancient origins and divinatory power of the runes • Uncovers the original divinatory meaning of each rune through the myths of its corresponding Norse god or goddess • Includes beautiful full-color illustrations of the runic gods and goddesses • Presents rune-casting spreads for divination and character analysis • Explores the controversial history of runes from the Paleolithic Stone Age to today Invented long before the appearance of the runic alphabet Futhark less than two thousand years ago, the runes were originally created as symbols for specific deities. Representing the twenty-four Norse gods and goddesses from the Vanir and Aesir pantheons, the runes provide a way to establish direct contact with the divine shapers of fate. Based on the work of Austrian mystic and runologist Guido von List and anthropologist Marija Gimbutas as well as the oldest rune artifacts to survive from pre-Christian Europe, this book reveals the long history of runes from their appearances in Paleolithic cave paintings through their rechristening in Medieval times to their modern resurgence as a popular tool of divination. It uncovers the original names and divinatory meanings of each rune by exploring the myths, personality traits, astrological periods, identifying colors, and gemstones of the rune’s corresponding god or goddess. It also illustrates and explains five ancient rune-casting spreads used by Norse adepts for divination as well as character analysis. By renewing their link with the divine, Gods of the Runes shows how working with the runes can be a genuine mystical experience, enabling a personal connection with the gods and a rediscovery of their perennial truths.

Download or read book Norse Germanic Runes and Symbols written by D. Schilling and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-28 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Norse/Germanic Runes & Symbols: Field Reference Guide for Law Enforcement & Corrections, provides the criminal justice professional a different perspective on the Norse & Germanic Runes, discussing how they evolved, when the Runes first emerged, and how they are currently used. Before the 20th Century, the Runes were known throughout Europe, respected in earlier days, then ignored by many in later times as they fell out of use. In the early 20th Century, the Runes were hijacked by racial extremists-the Nazis-who changed their meanings to justify a radical doctrine of hate. The Runes are still used today as symbols of hate by white power prison gangs, Neo-Nazis, and racial extremists. However, the Runes are also used by peaceful adherents of Heathenry & Norse Paganism, often leading to some confusion in discerning their intended use. Discover the evolution of the Runes, starting with the Elder Futhark and the Younger Futhark Runes of the Viking Age. Follow the progression of Runic development through the Anglo-Saxon Futhorc and the later Medieval, Marcomannic, and Dalecarlian Runes and their subsets. Explore the Armanen Runes of the 20th Century German Rune Revival, as well as the Modern-Day use of the Runes by Heathens, Neo-Pagans, Ásatrú Practitioners, Odinists, and Rune use by extremists. Emphasis is placed on how to learn which Runes are being used and how discern the content and intent of their message. Methods of transliterating the Runes are discussed, as are Runic ciphers. Also covered is the current trend of Norse/Germanic Pagan beliefs and symbols being combined with Satanic symbology & beliefs. Criminal Justice Professionals MUST know how to discern the meaning and intent of Runic writing and symbols encountered in their work. If you are an investigator, police officer, correctional officer, probation/parole officer, or prison program specialist, this book is for you.
