Runes
should be encrypted as their power will increase when
they are done in secret.
There are different ways to encrypt runes but here are
the three most commonly used. |
Rune
binding
This
is the basics to spell casting and is achieved through
combining the runes to form a new rune shape.
e.g. using teiwaz and fehu would be financial success. |

Futhark
Method
A
plain vertical line can be used with strokes from the
right and left.
The left side of the stroke represents which set the rune
belongs to and the right side refers to where the letter
comes in the set.
e.g. RUNIC raido(R) is in the 1st set (i.e. freya's)
and 5th in order, uruz(u) is also in the 1st set and is
2nd in order, etc. |
Beard
Method
I
find this method a bit lengthy but it is sometimes nice
to incorporate them into your paintings as a hidden meaning
or unobtrusive signature.
This follows the same principles as the Futhark method,
the left side of the beard represents which set it belongs
to and the right represents the sequence of the rune.
(as you might be thinking this can get pretty cluttered)
