February Rune Circle Sign-Up

One a day...trying something new this month!

I'm taking a cue from another intuitive reading circle & focusing on one rune a day. I have 4 out for Lewen. Kinda cool, really.

so you'll do your giant reading on the 24th with 24 runes?

I have accumulated an amazing pile of Runes books, I look at them stacked around me on the desk and bedside and I feel like Scrooge McDuck on his back in a pile of money.

The oddest one, but the one that will probably become a favorite is the Runes Of Elfland with art of Brian Froud and words by Ari Berk. It is really a lovely book. I can explain it no better than that. Except I learned a new Faery fact today. Faery is a three sylable word pronounced Fay-er-ree. I've been trying to say it that way all day, and it always comes out sounding like someone standing up to speak in front of a crowd and they are really scared and tongue tripping. Fay-er-ree.

My February reading is finished and posted, Ah, the pleasure is all that is left, of reading everyone else's. I'm still trying to get my mind around Alta's wet and dry

Fay er ree.
I sound red neck when I say it!

I've only got 4 runes pulled for her! Not 24! Don't freak me out! LOLOL

oops, and is this a bad thing?

I just read it. That's a really cool analogy. Watery emotions. Sensible, dry & workable thoughts & energy. Reminds me of something I heard as a child. Wear sensible shoes.
And it makes sense after reading Alta's reading.

Way cool!

****My rune book must be somewhere....I've got my runes, I've got my 2 words...****



ETA:

I found it! (As everybody was talking about books...)

Mine is Kenneth Meadows Rune Power. I have another one that I can't find, and a third one I lost (stolen).

Well, I wanted to write a little.

It was so good to come back to runes

Thank you for having me here

Speaking of rune books, I just picked up a new one in the bargain section of Barnes and Noble - The Runes Workbook by Leon D Wild. I'm liking it quite well; it's well-organized, starts with a decent explanation of runes, the Elder Futhark and all of those mysteries.

I especially like that it includes little exercises and meditations to get interactive with the meanings of the runes (nice addition to the actual use of reading them, which I also enjoy here!)

I'm currently working my way through that one too, with my journal at hand. I'm cross about the book though a workbook should lie flat and in order to do that I'm going to have to break the back. Books are treasures and I hate to do that so my workbook study has sort of bogged down.

On the other hand, I'm going to town today, I could run it by the printers and have them slice the back off and comb-bind it.

there is a Haindl rune deck up in trading...
