Using the Runes

An examination of the origin and meaning of the Runes, this book shows them to be a system that even today is still able to produce positive effects. D. Jason Cooper looks at how pre-Christian Germanic rune alphabets were used for both magic and ordinary writing. He studies their history and associated mythology, describing their role in magic, godforms and astral projection, and demonstrates how to carve, colour and use runes for fortune-telling. Furthermore, the book demonstrates how the runes can be used for divination and problem-solving, and to that end gives a variety of methods for spreading and casting the runes.
