"What an

ancient oracle." - Buckminster Fuller, philosopher
Use this book and the Viking runes to gain insight into
your present and your future. Fully revised for the
tenth anniversary and repackaged to celebrate the
twentieth anniversary of this international bestseller,
Ralph Blum’s classic work is now even more relevant as a
tool for self-help.
Pack contains 25 rune stones, drawstring bag and a
152-page illustrated handbook.
Since its first
publication more than 20 years ago, Ralph Blum’s The Book
of Runes has brought inspiration and comfort to millions
of people around the world. Every culture for the whole of
recorded history has possessed some form of oracular
tradition, and the primary function of Runes — stones and
cards alike — is to help us get our bearings in life. An
ancient Western alphabet last used in Iceland during the
late Middle Ages, the Runes may have originated as long ago
as the Bronze Age.
Ralph
has found the Runes to be a strong teacher and wise
companion.
For
many years, Ralph Blum's Book of Runes has helped
people discover the power of runes as an oracle and tool for
self-awareness. The first edition of this set was published
in 1983, and the 10th Anniversary edition in 1993 - now this
third 20th Anniversary edition has been released.
The
runes are an ancient Germanic oracle consisting of 24
symbolic markings or glyphs carved into stones. This set
includes 25 actual ceramic rune stones, the basic 24 and one
blank rune. The set also includes a drawstring bag to hold
the runes and The Book of Runes instruction guide. In
this companion book, Blum describes the history of the runes
and offers advice on runemal, the art of rune
casting.
Let Ralph
H. Blum share with you the wisdom and inspiration he has
gathered from his twenty-year relationship with the Runes.
You are holding something very special: a part of the
ancient past and, perhaps, a part of your future.
Based on a tradition over one thousand years old, this
contemporary Oracle has established itself as a remarkable
aid in practical decision making. When first published in
1983, R. Buckminster Fuller said: "What a wonderful thing
to have done - midwife the rebirth of an ancient oracle."
A huge success with over 1,000,000
copies sold, The Book of Runes has proven itself to be a
modern classic. For the tenth anniversary of the work, Ralph
H. Blum expanded and refined the runic system, making the
Runes the most profoundly useful self-help tool of our era.
Now, in the twentieth anniversary edition, this popular set
has been repackaged in very attractive boxing.
"The Runes are one of the world's greatest spiritual
resources. They always speak to us from the depths of our
own hearts." --Marianne Williamson, author of A Return
to Love
"A guidepost for our dark and troubled times."
--Seattle Times
"Its wisdom is remarkable." --San Francisco Chronicle
Cultural anthropologist,
writer, and publisher Ralph H. Blum has been working with
and teaching the Viking Runes as a tool for self-counselling
since 1977.
The Book of Runes is offered
as a handbook for the Spiritual Warrior.
These Runes are not meant to be used for divination or
fortune telling.
Rather, the Runes are a tool for assisting us to guide our
lives in the present.
For it is only in the present that our power can be
exercised.
An ancient Western Oracle
made available to serve you in your life now. Use this book
and the Viking Runes to gain insight into your present and
future. Fully revised to celebrate the 20th anniversary of
this international best seller, Ralph Blum's classic work is
now even more relevant as a tool for self-help. The
three-rune spread is one of the many ways to cast the Runes.
Selected and read from right to left, the Runes describe the
overview of the situation, the challenge you are facing, and
the course of action called for. The Runes don't tend to
give easy answers to your problems, that is not their place.
Nor do they tell your fortune. Instead the runes give you a
kind of report on your situation and possible ways to
understand and progress from here.
Use the Runes as an aid to meditation, a game for fun, or as
a tool for practical decision-making. The Book of Runes is a
treasure companion for everyone seeking inner guidance.
Let the Runes
illuminate your journey to self-discovery.
Ralph Blum is an anthropologist and a student
of the oracular tradition. Following a period in
Italy as a Fulbright Scholar, he returned to
Harvard for graduate work in Anthropology with
grants from the National Science Foundation and
Ford Foundation. Encountering the runes by chance
while doing research in England in 1977, Ralph
Blum subsequently explored their origins and
reinterpreted their meaning in terms appropriate
for our time. His books include The Book of Runes,
Rune Play, Rune Cards, Healing Runes, Serenity
Runes, The Little Book of Runic Wisdom and The
Relationship Runes. He has been working with the
Viking runes as a tool for self-counselling since
1980. Blum and his wife Jeanne live in the village
of Haiku, on the Hawaiian island of Maui.
