Wyrd Life

The runes are an ancient alphabet whose letters have specific meanings. These letters can be used for divination or magic and have a depth of history that makes them unique in the Western esoteric tradition. Running alongside them is the concept of wyrd, an understanding of which is vital to the effective use of the runes, but which is very rarely covered in any detail. This book gives a grounding in both the tradition of the runes and the understanding of wyrd which provides a richness and acceptance of responsibility that is lacking in modern life.
