*Free Rune Readings*

[gullindagan]

I'd like to up my runic divination game, so I am now offering free weekly divinations! So far I've mostly just divined for myself, and just use a simple 3 rune reading. I've been doing it for a number of years now, and reading for other people seems like the natural next step. As I'm just starting this, the only payment that I'll ask is for a report of how the reading corresponded to the real life situations.

I don't use reversals generally. I know many other people do, but it hasn't felt right for me yet. One reason is that in tarot its not really random, how do the cards get reversed in the first place? Maybe its just the way I shuffle. With runes, it seemed too complicated, and I try not to let the perfect be the enemy of the good. That's one reason why one of the modes I use with runes is "what do I gain if I do X, what do I lose? What do I gain if DON'T do X, what do I lose"

But I am not a master at this by any means, which is one reason that I started doing this. I've already learned a lot in the past week.

Thanks for your reply! Using reversed runes came rather naturally (from the technical perspective) since I carved the runes on small wooden staves that I draw from a cloth bag. But it makes the readings more difficult to understand, I have to say. The mode of reading you describe strikes me as a very sensible approach, that I should integrate into my practice. I think especially geomantic readings will benefit quite strongly from this, since I usually have some trouble interpreting charts that perfect on a yes/no question but only with negative figures. Asking in this two-sided manner could help clarify things a little bit, I suppose. A very mathematical approach, in some way, since when you have to prove that A<=>B you need to prove A=>B and B=>A, too... now you have something like A=>R<=B.

Greetings, and good luck to you and your project here!

I may start doing reversals at some point, but for now this seems to work.

I figured out that mode after trying to find a way to have more specific answers, because I see the Runes as signifying primal forces. Hope it helps!
