Runes: The Mystical Alphabet of the North

Runes are an ancient alphabet system used by Germanic peoples, also serving as mystical tools for divination. The traditional Elder Futhark contains 24 symbols, each with specific names, sounds, symbolic meanings, and mystical properties. Common runes include: Fehu (wealth), Uruz (strength), Thurisaz (protection), Ansuz (wisdom), Raido (journey), etc. Rune divination is typically performed by drawing or casting rune stones, requiring both intuition and traditional meanings for interpretation.
