About Runes:
We have inherited our knowledge of the magical and divinatory powers of Runes from Norse mythology. The name Rune derives from the root word run- (Gothic runa), meaning: secret, whisper. The Rune symbols are letters from the runic alphabets used to write Germanic and Scandinavian languages long before the adoption of the Latin alphabet. Historically, the Runic script developed from the Old Italic alphabets of antiquity, such as Raetic, Etruscan and Old Latin. In Norse mythology, the Runes are attributed with the power to bring that which is dead to life, and thus, Odin recounts a spell:
“I know a twelfth one if I see, up in a tree,
A dangling corpse in a noose,
I can so carve and color the runes,
That the man walks, And talks with me.”
