The alphabet of the ancestors of modern Germans, English, Swedes and Norwegians or magic symbols for rituals? In this article, we will answer these questions and find out how to use runes for beginners.
A trip to history
Most of the tribes of northern Europe used runic symbols for two purposes:
- like phonetic characters,
- as a pictogram system.
In the first case, runes were used to write words and read notes. But in the second, these symbols served as a means of communication with the other world. With the help of runes, they influenced the weather, treated the sick, and even improved their financial condition. These symbols were written on weapons, tables, houses, and in general, wherever possible. But not everyone possessed this secret knowledge.
In our time, getting the necessary information is not difficult. BUTtherefore, fortune-tellers and sorcerers are so eager to learn the magic of runes. For beginner esotericists, this is a wonderful way to replenish your knowledge base. They seem to open a window into a new, interesting and unusual world. Those who begin to study runes note that miracles begin to happen in their lives. They have better intuition. In addition, having learned this skill, you can help not only yourself, but also relatives and friends.
There are two completely different ways to use these unusual characters. Firstly, with their help, you can improve your he alth, remove damage, and resolve family issues. And, besides, there are divination on runes. They allow you to remember the past, look at the present and open the curtain of the future. But the study of runes for beginners does not begin with this. First you need to get to know them better.
Types of runes
There are an incredible number of different magical symbols:

In ancient times, each tribe used its own runes. But nowadays Scandinavian ones are the most popular. Runes for beginners can be found in the following image.
You can make them yourself or buy them in the store. In addition, unlike Tarot cards, runes can be a wonderful gift for relatives and friends who are interested in esotericism.
Activate runes
In order for the phonetic signs of our ancestorshave gained magical power, you first need to get acquainted with them. In addition, you need to activate the runes. For beginners, this is not difficult at all. It is necessary to take each rune, examine it carefully, feel the energy it radiates and read what it means. This should be done with each character. At the same time, you should not rush. Experienced esotericists say that one rune should be dedicated every day.
Another thing is if you make a magic tool yourself. In this case, activation occurs automatically. It's just that when you make each rune, you should pronounce its name, read its meaning.
Man and magical symbols must form one whole. Only in this case, the runes will be able to answer all your questions and help in solving them.
Rune values (1-12)
So, almost all esotericists use Scandinavian symbols. These are 24 completely different runes. They differ in appearance, meaning and energy. Some of them are more aggressive, they seem to blow cold. Such runes have negative interpretations. Others are warm or even hot. Consider the first 12 runes.
- Feu is one of the most famous symbols. This is the rune of we alth, protection and achievement. In love matters, it symbolizes former partners and relationships.

- Gebo is a fairly common rune. She takes her beginning in the meaning of "gift". This is one of the most auspicious signs, meaning happiness, luck, joy. This rune is very often used in the preparation of special formulas for well-being, we alth.
- The Vunyo Rune is often compared to the Wheel of Fate Tarot card. Indeed, their meanings are almost identical. This symbol can have both a positive interpretation and a negative one.

With negative runes nearby, Vunyo can be interpreted as stagnation in business, the impossibility of progress.
- Hagalaz (Hagall) - literally translated "hail". This is a symbol of spontaneous destruction, the collapse of hopes and plans. He warns that the person is no longer in full control of the situation.
- Nautiz is a rune that not only shows the situation,but also explains how to do it. It literally translates to "don't rush". Most often, the rune falls out when a person has many problems in life. The symbol gives advice: "You need to be patient." And in fact, everything that happens in life is not accidental, and one must humbly accept the trials of fate.
- Isa - depicted as a vertical stick. And this is no coincidence. It seems to show that a period of stagnation has come. You should put aside all the cases and look at them from the other side. At this time, you will not be able to succeed, but at the same time nothing threatens you.
- Yer is translated as "harvest". The rune symbolizes receiving finances, but not just winning the lottery. This is a well-deserved reward.

If Yer falls out, then everything worked out for him and she will finally pay attention to him.
Rune values (12-24)
Among the next 12 runes, you can also find both positive and negative ones. But you need to understand that in each case, the value may vary and depend on various factors. If you are wondering where to start studying runes, then you should study these interpretations for a start:

Odin - the power of rock
In some divination there are 25 runes. And the last of them is Odina. This is an empty rune that does not have a graphic image on it. It is believed that she personifies fate, fate. If it falls out in fortune-telling, then everything that is destined for a person will definitely happen. The rune indicates that the current situation is under the control of higher powers and it cannot be changed.
Besides, there is one more meaning. Odin can be interpreted as a big change. For better or for worse? Everything will depend on the symbols that fall next. Rune cleaning for beginners is carried out precisely with the help of Odina, because the absence of symbols is the easiest to imagine. But it should be understood that this is not just emptiness - it is a transition to another dimension, to something that is beyond the understanding of many people.
Working principle
Learning all about runes for beginners, a natural question arises, but how do they work? Although for most practices this information is not important, it is advisable to read it. It should be understood that if you do not understand the principle of the runes, this does not meanthat they won't work. Despite the fact that many do not know how televisions work, this does not prevent them from enjoying their favorite TV shows. In esotericism, the same principle.
In the material world, we often encounter objects about which we know practically nothing. It turns out that each of them has a special energy (vibrations). Any object interacts with the cosmos and it does not matter at all whether it is animated or not. Any pebble or twig carries a charge of energy (positive or negative).
According to the same principle, people choose their jewelry. Some are favorable for them, while others, on the contrary, have a destructive power. So, on each rune (except Odina) a certain symbol is drawn. It creates a certain field around itself. At the same time, the rune interacts with cosmic forces and gives a person the necessary predictions.
When learning all about runes for beginners, you should also understand that the pictogram system is not perfect. It takes time to get used to it.
As for the runic formulas for improving he alth, removing damage and the like, the principle of the runes is the same. A set of certain symbols triggers energy changes in the surrounding human world. But at the same time, much depends on the abilities of a person, his aura, the power of thought. It is for this reason that before starting work with runes, you should make sure that you have certain magical knowledge and successfully apply it in practice.
Runic formulas
As we have already found out,There are two main ways to work with Scandinavian characters:
- Compilation of formulas for healing, we alth, removal of damage, attraction of the opposite sex, etc.
- Rune divination.
Where to start studying depends only on what goals a person pursues. Nevertheless, many experienced esotericists recommend starting with the compilation of formulas. If within a month you see that they really work, guessing on the runes will be as easy as shelling pears.
So, in general, you can create a runic formula for the fulfillment of any desire. And, of course, there are certain rules for this. For beginners, the magic of runes has not yet been revealed so much that experienced esotericists recommend that they use ready-made formulas.
As you can see in the image, other runes are allowed in some cases. For example, in the formula “Universal protective shield”, the first and third symbols are Turisaz, and in the center, previously unknown to us, is Tivaz. This is one of the runes of the German alphabet, meaning a warrior, a god. So, the extreme symbols - destroy, dispel everything bad in a person's life with the help of the middle rune. This formula is a good talisman against magical attacks, gives strength of mind, allows you to withstand any test.
Where to wear amulets
Now you know where to start learning runes. But besides this, you should also learn how to use them correctly. Runic formulas are amulets that can be worn on the body or clothes, as well as written on objects and photographs. It all depends on the symbols themselves,as well as human intentions. If something hurts you, then the formula can be written on a band-aid and glued to the right place.
In addition, amulets on the wrist, shoulder and neck showed high efficiency. In this case, the choice is limited only by personal preferences and comfort. It is desirable that the runes are not visible to outsiders. In addition, you cannot talk about your goals while the symbols are working. If, nevertheless, someone noticed runic symbols on you, say that it's just that.
Rune divination
This is a great way to look into the future, find out what worries a person and what dangers he is warned about. There are quite a few different fortune-telling, but work with runes for beginners should start with the simplest ones. Before that, you should tune in to the question that concerns you and discard all extraneous thoughts. It is desirable that there are no unnecessary items on the table where the layout will be performed. The runes should be laid out on a red cloth and mixed well. You can read prayers over them. Mentally ask a question that interests you, and take one rune. Its meaning will be the answer to your question. In addition, in some divination, an inverted meaning is also used. That is, if in a straight line, for example, a rune means happiness, in an inverted one, grief.
Meditations
There is another area in which the use of runes is possible. So, meditation is another great way to improve he alth or achieve the desired result. For example, your goal is to lose weight. To do this, takeyour photo (best of all, if it is a photo before gaining extra pounds, and not after). Draw a circle in the center and place the desired formula.
Now you should lie down or sit comfortably so that the image is constantly in front of your eyes. Look at the photo for a while and think about how your body will soon change. Then you should close your eyes and imagine how the energy of these symbols envelops you. They seem to penetrate your body and mind. These runes should always be in front of your eyes.
Just starting a meditation doesn't mean that a few extra pounds will go away when it's over. In fact, the runes change consciousness, give willpower, inspire. You will feel energized and energized, and probably change your eating habits or sign up for a gym. Cleaning runes from negativity for beginners occurs in the same way.
Runes cannot just take and take away extra pounds or remove damage, but they can help you move in the right direction. Just meditating and waiting for a miracle will not bring any results. At the same time, one cannot ignore the sensations that arise after such meditations. For example, a person uses a runic formula to find a job. At some point, he gets the idea that he needs to check the vacancies on the site again. Most likely, this feeling appeared for a reason. If a person listens to inner feelings, in a couple of days he will get the job he dreams of.
WhenUsing this method, you must definitely believe in its power. Do not ask the runes how to start acting, but feel their strength and energy, which will definitely help you. Now you will definitely gather your strength and act.
