Mani The Moon.
In the Norse mythos the moon is masculine and the Sun is feminine. While there is much written on the feminine Moon metaphor, in Wicca and other traditions, not much is left of Mani and His many secrets. I believe this is due to the persecution of feminine power in western Europe by a politically motivated Holy Roman Empire (re-invented as the Holy Roman Church.) Knowledge of Mani (the Moon) is vital to survival, this is the understanding of the natural world. A part of what we call…See More
Loclynn commented on sally Austin's blog post Taking up the Runes"True.
This picture brought Cernunnos to mind or even Krampus. But Tyriel is correct in that its meaning will be personal. "
Tyriel [Rune Secrets Admin] commented on sally Austin's blog post Taking up the Runes"Very interesting, though we need to be careful with interpretations because it is very subjective and tied to the individual's personal mythos."
Loclynn commented on sally Austin's blog post Taking up the Runes"From the Wiki:
Sherry Salman considers the image of the Horned God in Jungian terms, as an archetypal protector and mediator of the outside world to the objective psyche. In her theory the male psyche's 'Horned God'…"

For a long time I was what cold be called a dabbler when it came to runes. I guess I caught someones attention it doing so because according to a friend, one of the messages in my dreams(yeah those again) is to apparently learn divination. That'd probably make it easier for whomever is trying to contact me to do so,I decided to listen to that interpretation and decided to learn about divination. My first impulse, runes, not quite sure which Futhark I'm going to use exactly but since I have…See More
sally Austin replied to winter.skadi's discussion Getting started: How’d it happen for you?"My path kind of chose me. I was around 10 and felt myself drawn to a specific area in a book store and went with it. It was a book by Raymond Buckland, inside there was a part about magic alphabets, one was the Futhark. Out of all…"
sally Austin replied to Kjolig's discussion What's Your favourite Divination Method?"I'm just learning but so far I'm drawn to runes. I'm taking one rune out a week and learning about it. I like I-Ching too."
Enoch Bowen commented on sally Austin's blog post Dreaming"Sally, thank you for sharing. Do you journal your dreams? These symbols may be significant.
I have a journal entry dated Thursday, October 5th 2006. I encounter "A couple of kids, a boy and a girl were wearing what at first appeared to…"
Dave Tilley commented on sally Austin's blog post Dreaming"I am not sure how many in the group are shamanic practitioners, but I am. I think journey-work to investigate the runes in combination with the above mentioned myths is really helpful in seeing not only what the runes are but what meanings they…"
"I think it can help to analyse the different elements of your dream in the light of what they mean to you. How do feel about markets? What experiences have you had when going to them? For me, jewelry is about adornment and drawing to yourself…"
Manos commented on sally Austin's blog post Dreaming"I would not focus on the specific runes themselves, at least as a first approach, but I would try to understand why they are in a market. I mean, runes are carved on tools and personal belongings, but why you don't see yourself, for example,…"

I've noticed runes have been appearing in my dreams lately. They are usually on objects in a market place that sort of shows up. They are usually on necklaces. I don't remember all that appear but I do remember Isa and Ehwaz or Mannaz I'm not to sure. I really need to pay better attention so I can remember the others. Maybe figure out how to lucid dream so I can pick them up or something.
At least the ones I remember sort of fit. I'm…

Hello everyone! I just wanted to share the design for the cover of The Book of Rune Secrets, recently completed. This will (99%) probably be the final cover that will show up on Amazon and the actual book! Feedback appreciated, of course. Enjoy!Lessons of Hagalaz: Rune of Disaster and Healing
In the face of disaster, compassionate human beings discover that they do not break, but become stronger. We discover that our communities come together, even on a global scale, in face of unimaginable destruction. When the universe shows its inimical side, the side that couldn't care less about average human affairs, it's as if we come together to show overwhelmingly that we care for one another. When the universe demonstrates that it cannot be depended upon, that it is more than able to wreck havoc, we react by showing that we can depend upon one another.A Social Network Exclusively For Rune Study?
