For more than 1,500 years, rune stones have been at the heart of Norse lore. In Viking mythology, the first Futhark runes were carved in stone by the three maiden Norns based on the divine wisdom they received from the Well of Urd — the source of all destiny and fate. The god king Odin sacrificed himself on the world tree Yggdrasil for nine days and nights so that his eyes would open to the true meaning of the strange symbols.
At their roots, Crossroad Runes share much of the same history and lore as other rune casting practices. Each of the 25 Elder Futhark runes bears both a symbol (or lack thereof) and a particular significance. By drawing and placing runes in a specific order, you may gift yourself with insight into a problem or decision you face.

The truth is there is no wrong way to read the runes. Trust your gut and follow your instincts. If you’d like additional guidance, below are some of the resources I’ve found useful when sharing with others. Always, however, choose the methods, meanings, and systems that make sense to you.
If you would like to talk to with me directly and schedule a personal rune reading, please use the contact form below. We can find a time and communication tool (Skype, Zoom, Facetime, etc.) that works best for us both. I ask for a $20 honorarium for the reading, and a one-on-one session may last for 15 to 30 minutes. We will discuss what the runes can and can’t do, talk about the question or questions you have in mind, then conduct the two rune Crossroad reading. If you have any questions at any time, please reach out and let me know.
