Each of the 25 runes (including the empty rune Wird) has its own
meaning. The value of runes in fortune telling is somewhat different from the values that are used in
runic magic. Therefore, they should be remembered so as not to rustle at the most crucial moment.
leaves and do not fly to the computer. It is important that the meaning of the runes during fortune-telling varies depending on the position in which the rune stands. Consider the first att, the first 8 runes. Most often, the value of the runes in fortune telling, if the rune is upside down, bears a negative color. Nevertheless, not all inverted runes are bad. Many simply take on a slightly different connotation of meaning. Do not forget that the interpretation of runes in fortune-telling is associated with the personal associations of the interpreter. So many factors determine how true the prediction is.
Fehu
Direct position: acquisitions in the material sphere. Inverted position: problems in personal life. It’s better to postpone the plan.
Uruz
Direct position: favorable changes. All plans will come true. Inverted - you are disorganized, missed opportunities. The roots of the problems are in you.
Turisaz
Direct: Completion of the old cycle, old affairs. New beginnings. But hurry now
it’s not necessary, it’s better to think it over several times. Inverted position: the situation is not in your power. It is time to just watch, not act.
Ansuz
Direct: follow intuition and signs from above. Inverted: the efforts are in vain, moreover, you are misjudging the situation.
Raido
Direct position: ride, movement towards the target. Inverted position: beware of conflicts. Different surprises are possible.
Kanaz
The direct position of the runes: clarification of the truth, clarity. Feel free to go forward, the roads are open. Inverted position: loss of job or friend. But no matter what you lose, you should not be upset. This is already obsolete, and you do not need to develop.
Gebo
The meaning of the rune does not change, since it does not have an inverted position. This applies to those cases when the value of the runes during fortune-telling does not change. Thus, Gebo means partnership in all its manifestations.
Wuno
If the rune is located directly, then this promises joy and the completion of the black strip. If the rune is in an inverted position, then this is a sign that you are in a state of crisis. Having survived it, you will again be "on horseback".
So, we examined only the first att, the first eight runes of Futhark. Nevertheless, an idea of this system can be made. Perhaps it is worth saying about the combination of runes in fortune telling. Not so simple. Some runes, combined with each other, somewhat change the meaning. So, the appearance of the Soulu rune in the layout automatically smooths out the negative influence of neighboring runes, even if they are in an inverted position. By the way, this rune itself does not have an inverted position.
Also, Gebo + Issa can be attributed to interesting combinations. The fact is that Issa (the rune of ice) in itself is, so to speak, a “refrigerator” in some way. That is, with its help, you can suspend the course of the disease, the development of the situation. When combined with Gebo, we get a small but strong formula for preserving love. At the same time, Gebo + Algiz is a formula for good luck. But this luck is a special kind. It is achieved through the interaction of Gebo with the Higher Forces (Algiz). Thus, it is always worth considering the fact that the value of the runes in fortune telling can vary quite a lot.
