![]() ![]() In some magickal paths it is commonplace to ask the tree to take the wood and in some to only use wood that has already fallen, although fresh cut wood is preferable, use your own way to collect the wood and if that means fallen wood please do so, and as a side note try and take only as much as you need not 3 or 4 branches at a time. You can then take the material needed either by collecting the stone or cutting a branch from the tree you want the wood from.

Secondly there is two different ways you can make these runes, either way is acceptable, its a matter of personal choice, these are Traditional and Modern/Non Traditional methods, I will cover both but this article mainly covers Traditional. ![]() In this article we will be talking about the elder futhark runes but you can adapt this method to cover any rune set that is preferable to you. Firstly you need to decide what kind of runes set you want to make. Before showing you how to create your own rune set I should mention a few things. These can then be used in casting and divination, made into charms and talismans and used in many other rituals and norse practices.
