Moonstone Runes Set
This beautiful set of runes are hand-crafted using a set of tumbled and polished white rainbow moonstone. Each symbol of the Elder Futhark Runes is then carved into the surface of the moonstone in gold paint.
Each rune measures approximately 1.5 - 2cm. As these are carved from natural stone there is variation between each set.
This set of runes comes with a pouch and colour and shapes may vary slightly as this is a natural product made from the gifts of mother earth.
About Runes
In the western parts of Europe, before people were able to write, they would often carve images such as people, animals, weapons and body parts into the walls of caves and rocks. These carvings were referred to as runes. Runes comes from the Gothic word runa which translate to 'a secret thing or mystery'. Form here runes became more than just a text, they became powerful sigils that carry magical properties and meaning that are represented by each letter.
Depending on where runes were found they have changed significantly over the centuries. Often taken around the country by traders, adventurers and warriors the runes had to adapt into a common alphabet which we now call FUThARK. FUThARK runes consist of a set of 24 which are split into 3 groups. These three groups (or aettit) a were given their names in honor of the three gods Freyr, Hegal and Tyr. The word FUThARK is named after the first six letters of the FUThARK alphabet.
Often runes come in a set of 25. This is a relatively new addition in which a blank rune has been added. This blank rune represents the unknown or the divine. Some people choose not to cast with this rune and use it as a spare just in case they misplace a rune.
