A step-by-step guide to learning the wisdom of the staves.
The runes are not only a writing system used by some of the ancient Germanic peoples - they are also known as the Mysteries. Carved on wood, metal or stone and steeped in a rich folkloric tradition, the runes are a powerful divinatory tool.
'The Runes Workbook' provides a fascinating insight into these Mysteries - including the history of the runes, the significance of the runic poems and runic literature, the meanings of the individual staves (stones) and methods for runic divination. This workbook also explores the connections between the runes, mythology, archaeology and magic and provides an insight into runic psychology.

- Description, interpretation, exercises, and activities for each of the rune staves
- Interactive workbook exercises for every chapter
