Using them: Some people use them in divination. I am not going to lie to you and tell you I understand of the manners. There way i do it is by putting them all in a velvet bag and drawing out 3-5. I do however, use them in spells by carving the appropriate ones into candles, or stones or charms or anything. I also use them to bring forth whatever they can like Tiwaz for protection and strength. I have it carved very small in various places in my room. You can even make these symbols into jewelry if you are a jewelry maker. Carve them into amulets, necklace, bracelets.
I haven't tried using these, but I can see several applications for them in my work.
ReplyDeleteAnd? Your handwriting isn't that bad! :)

Lols thank you.
DeleteHealing Hailings, Katia....
ReplyDeleteI am Paganus AlbusBarba.
Yes. I am indeed the Pagan GreyBeard.....
Saw Your videos on the #Pagan Days site.
Fabulous site....
Trying to watch Your videos on this very kranky & bytchy & no longer serviced or tech supported Sprint/... EVO 4G touchscreen cellphone is decidedly a challenging 'afterhours' experience....
You have very good videos even if this ~ ahem ~ 'unit' is increasingly reluctant to behave....
Georgia, Alabama, Texas, Alaska & Hawaii?
Interesting.....
I noticed You had a brief mention in Your blog about Runes.
I have been 'working' &/or 'casting' the Runes for several years. I am a featured 'performer' at the "Koroneburgh Renaissance Festival" in Corona, CA. I am a member of the 'Guilde of Arts & Sciences'. When I am able to attend the Festival I frequently 'work'/'cast' the Runes for the Festival visitors, fellow 'Rennies' at the Festival & my own Guild if they want a 'reading'/'casting'.....
Yes. I'm a 'Rennie'. It's a very quietly convenient way to be openly 'pagan'.... I wear my pentacles & 'dragon's claws' very openly. I'm a 'Rennie'. I get to be quietly 'weird & strange' without disrupting much of anything. Though there was that time late-night in Palm Springs when I was working 'security' out by the front-gate fountain..... Shhh... Might be best not to mention that.....
How long have You been 'working'/'casting' the Runes?
As well as being a way for Your 'guides &/or guardians' ~ if You even have any? ~ to 'speak' & 'share' with You ~ I've found the Runes to be a quiet meditative tool.
I have a wooden, stone & card set.

I would first like to apologize for how long it took me to respond to you. Thank you very much and I am honored you like my videos and blog.I have lived in quite the number of places and yes I currently live in South Carolina on the Georgia border. I love going to Augusta. I had no idea that my videos were on #Pagan Days but I am not surprised. You work at a Renaissance festival? That is very cool. I live no where near California or I would totally go and support you. I love supporting others. There is one they have up near here in Eureka. South Carolina. I am not really quietly weird and strange. I have often had to remove my pentacle and under the advice of others, I toned down what I wore out. I am totally jealous of your situation. Now to answer your questions. As far as using runes by themselves instead of an add on to spells to increase their potency or direct them in a less broad fashion, less than a year. I am not the most experienced with them I can admit. I prefer to just carve them into places needing them or add them to spells as I stated earlier. When I seek guidance from my "guides and guardians" (as you put it) I usually go out and sit in the woods. I look for specific signs. I prefer for nature to tell me than to use stones, cards, or other medians. Those may be quicker but they just don't suit me to well. Besides, I find sitting amongst nothing but The Divine and Their creations more relaxing than anything else. Thank you for all the information.
