Hi loona wynd, welcome to the message board. Hope you enjoy things here.
Part of what I've done the past almost-five years on this board is to share related information as I come across it. It adds to the content, incites conversations and questions, etc. So, you'll see a lot of videos and articles that I have posted that are not necessarily things that I practice, but things that I think are important to expose people to, topics related to the theme of this board.
While I resonate with ...
resonating tone and sound, I have not used runes in this way (I'm more of an ogham person, myself). I have and do use tones and alphabets/imagery for various purposes in my spiritual practices, and have for years, but that's another post. Having said that, I believe we all have both "soul lines," as well as "blood lines," and I don't think people need to be of a specific race for specific spiritual practices to resonate with them, for instance, don't have to be Germanic or Nordic for Seidhr & Galdr to resonate with them, to "embrace" them, etc. Sometimes, people "recognize" spiritual practices due to a deeper soul connection with them that goes beyond the current lifetime, I believe.
It's great you know about Seidhr & Galdr practices, but I have found that not a lot of people do. In fact, since I posted the posts above, I received PMs that this info provided a deeper insight into peoples' spiritual applications of rune work. I think within the next couple of generations such practices as Seidhr & Galdr may be in danger of getting altogether lost, unfortunately. I hope not. That's partly why I've posted this information here.
I think a lot of spiritual practices like this, if anything, will be carried on via video games, believe it or not. A moderator here, Xiao Rong (who is of Chinese heritage, but resonates with European runes, and does insightful readings for herself and others with them) started an interesting conversation thread about contemporary media seeming to become spiritual grimoires of sorts for many.
We've even opened a separate forum about this:
Pop Culture Magic. When I have mentioned things like bindrunes and whatnot to people who know nothing about witchcraft, they will say, "Oh, that's like
blah in the video game
blah blah blah." I'm like, "Um, yeah, just like that," haha. Another member here calls himself a "fable witch," and effects his magic through the art he creates, and the stories he writes.
So, to really enjoy this board loona wynd, I advise you to leave judgmentalness behind and think outside the box as to which spiritual practices can be practiced by whom, why and how, and just enjoy the exchange of information here.
Thanks!
