Rune casting is a form of divination that uses symbols called runes, which are characters from ancient alphabets, particularly the Elder Futhark. Practitioners typically cast a set of runes, often made from materials like wood or stone, to gain insight into a question or situation. Each rune has its own meaning, and the way they land can influence the interpretation. The process usually involves focusing on a specific question, then drawing or throwing the runes. The resulting arrangement is analyzed to provide guidance or clarity. Rune casting is often used in spiritual practices and can be a tool for self-reflection and decision-making.
