Ask teh runes!!!1
Jun. 11th, 2007 08:29 pmAhem.
I impulse bought them from the British Museum shop, along with King Harald's Saga by Snori Sturluson. It's gripping and fast paced and so far I have got to part 34, where Harald and King Svein of Denmark are about to fight it out over who deserves Denmark more. In this part, I like that there is a court poet known as Thorleik the Handsome. He must've been very very handsome to be known for it.
I also bought Chronicles of the Vikings by RI Page, which I mostly picked because it has a chapter entitled 'the unheroic life' that comes straight after a chapter called 'the heroic life'.
Anyway! I have been practising with the runes (put hand in bag, extract rune, consult little book, feel baffled). Apparently, long distance rune-reading is quite acceptable. Please do feel free to ask them anything you like!! (Answers may not make sense, may contain nuts)

Endurance, survival, determination. A time to exercise patience. Recognition of one's fate. Major self-initiated change. Face your fears.
Drawing this rune indicates there may well be hold ups and reasons to reconsider your plans carefully. The necessity to deal with constraint is the lesson of nauthiz. The rune represents the obstacles we present for ourselves as well as those we encounter in the world around us.
Ahahaha. I daren't ask them about my own deadlines now.
