What are Viking runes?
Viking runes are ancient symbols used by the Vikings as part of their alphabet and also as divination tools. These sacred markings were not only letters, but also carriers of deeper meanings. They can help you gain clarity on important decisions and connect with universal energies, functioning as an oracle to guide your path.
The origin of Viking runes in Norse mythology
Runes have their origin in Norse mythology, specifically linked to the Well of Urd (UrĂ°arbrunnr), which was located under Yggdrasil, the tree of life. According to legend, from the Well of Urd emerged the Norns, entities that wove the destiny of all living beings. They used runes to trace the paths of destiny through Yggdrasil, thus connecting the nine worlds of Norse cosmology.
Odin, the main god in Norse mythology, sacrificed his eye and hung on Yggdrasil for nine days and nights to gain knowledge of the runes. This heroic act granted him the wisdom to understand the deeper meaning of each rune, making him a symbol of knowledge and power among the gods.
How are Viking runes used?
To use the Viking runes, place each one in a bag and ask a specific question. Then, one or more runes are drawn at random without looking. Each rune has a unique meaning that can be interpreted according to the situation or question posed, offering guidance and perspective on aspects such as love, career, important decisions or personal development.
A curiosity about Viking runes
