The
material that follows must be regarded as a basic alphabet from which
sentences will be formed. Until all this basic data is thoroughly known
there can be no insights or intuitions from an inner manipulation of the
meanings here listed. Insights based on a THOROUGH mastery of these basics
can with confidence be allowed to enrich the hoard from which you draw
your interpretations.
DIVINATORY
MEANINGS OF THE RUNES
The
divinatory meanings given here are to be considered as a bare skeleton
to be fleshed out by the work and intuitions of the student. One skilled
in the Tarot will find that a consideration of the correspondences with
the major arcana will help to gain insights into the forces associated
with Rune divination, A Cabbalist will find it useful to fit the Runes
onto a hexagon with the FA-IS axis vertical. The correspondence of the
three verticals of the hexagon with the pillars of the Tree will prove
very seminal.
A
practitioner who uses crystals will be astonished at the increase in perceptions
brought about by an alliance of the Runes with the crystals. There are
notes on this matter in the Appendix because many people are familiar
with crystal work. The hexagonal cross section of quartz and the fact
that all of the 18 Sacred Futhork Runes are derived from the geometry
of the hexagon is the basis of an enormous increase in crystal power when
it is associated with Rune images.
To
one without any previous knowledge of other systems the Runes will speak
clearly and succinctly. There is no limit to the intuitions available
to one who reads the Runes with pure motives.
