Synopsis

Are you an open-minded spiritual practitioner? A seeker of truth and knowledge? Someone who is willing to discuss alternate perspectives? Then this book is for you. Here within is my attempt at finding the truth behind the purpose and origin of the Elder Futhark as well as intuitively deciphering their somewhat obscure meanings.

At a glance this book provides:

1. Discussion on how runes became a language used for divination
2. Clear and easy-to-use modern interpretations for each rune's meaning
3. Abstract geometric artwork for each rune
4. Additional western alchemical and astronomical associations for each rune
5. Several overview tables and references

In this context, this book does not discuss the traditional meanings or interpretations of the runes, but rather more modern outlooks and perspectives on each. Instead of adding more content to already confusing and conflicting traditional/conventional meanings – I have opted for the opposite, to simplify rather than complicate. I have tried to distill the core of each rune through my studies into their history, linguistics and metaphysics in order to make clear delineations between the runes. Thus, brief mentions are made to traditional meanings in favor of more discussion around the transference of the runes into our daily lives with reference to more familiar circumstances and challenges.

I am quite partial to the metaphysical symbolism of animals, plants and objects, thus this book includes plenty representations form the animal kingdom as well as everyday objects and some minor contributions from herbology. I have tried to keep to the mythology related to the Germanic tribes and to the everyday references of people living in Iron Age Europe. Therefore, some of my interpretations are similar to their traditional counterparts, but the majority of them have been cast anew.

PS Elder Futhark Arcanum is twice the content of Celestial Rune Sigils, both in word count and pictures!

I truly appreciate any review and feedback as I am constantly striving towards improving this runic body of work!
