Runes

Post by SapphireRoad »

Lately I've been quite keen on runes, also praying to the Goddess and some Slavic Gods
I find in somewhat more giving material results than angelic work so

I find this journey a journey of heartfullness

Question: can you see runes in my signature? They are part of unicode so you can just copy paste them from wikipedia page, yet once I logged from cell phone and saw just squares instead of them.

I like to visualise runes for getting needed results in a given day's demands.
You can paint them anywhere you want, consider it caligraphy with magical effect.

How's your journey with runes? I'd love to hear you share your stories, my beloved family of witches :flyingwitch:

Yes, I see some interesting symbols, then runes, the a quote by Browning, then quote by Browning, then some more interesting symbols. :fairy:

Yeah Hebrew is also part of unicode, they didn't seem to neglect that either for some reason.
Quotes are written in English I hope. I hope you can see my letters written in English, or is it ''all dead paper, mute and white'' ?

This is what your signature says on my screen:

"toll the Silver iterance" Elizabeth B. Browning
"Perfect till the nightingales applauded." Robert Browning
אהיה אשר אהיה

Hope this helps. XD

Yes that is the way to display it correctly. Thank you.

Have you guys found any rune so significant to your work that you recollected a lore that exceeds the standard definitions of runes?

I don't know if this exceeds the standard definition.
I probably work with Gebo (X) the most. For me it is the eternal crossroads. All about choices and consequences. It reminds me to work in the present, where the lines cross. To stay in the now. It's a good meditative tool for that. I see the symbols in many places, shadows cast by the moonlight through the trees being my favorite. It reminds me also of the 4 directions, the four winds, four x four paths, foundations and places to strengthen or fortify.
When I encounter the symbol randomly in nature, I check with my thoughts at the time and then situations in the moment. How can gebo assist with these? I am frequently finding myself turning onto a different path.

ᚩ ᚷ ᛒ

Thanks. It got me this idea. Do you think it can work to balance As & Beorc, the God & Goddess?

Well sure,
I could see that as equal and balanced yet finding different shades, shapes and possibilities in the center/crossover. Also supporting each other because of that balance. Strength when joined?
Although the symbol is also used to remove or prevent, like 'do not go here. Stop, or protect (one from X-ed out thing) It can easily be used as a protective measure when both forefingers are used to make the symbol.
Equal armed cross is also foundational pointing to the four corners like a pyramid, a quadrilateral square with 90' angle boils down to 9 a magic number, and odd number within equal walls. :wink: Then the outer edges of square, halved, and placed point on point create the X once again. Cyclical. Pattern creating, balancing :D
