Rune Divination
It is believed that the use of runes for divinatory purposes has existed from the Germanic tribes who used numerous forms of divination and omens in their everyday life.
Most modern practitioners use runes made of clay, wood or stone for their divination purposes.
As with all things concerning spiritual matters it all boils down to personal preferences with what methods you use to divine. I personally find that using the placements makes no difference compared with picking however many runes you seem fit, other than to allow you to focus (if you need it). Below are a few examples to get you started, you should think of your question then proceed to pick the runes from their container (preferably a bag) placing them in their relevant positions. (A piece of advice: the runes can sometimes be a bit vague so don’t only read them as singular statements try and form an intuitive blend almost like an overall story). Good luck
