Slavic signs runes amulets. Slavic runes and runic alphabet

In this article:


The ancient Slavs were well versed in esoteric issues, and they used this knowledge in all spheres of their life. The overwhelming majority of them used protective magical amulets or talismans. For the manufacture of amulets, ancient Slavic runes were mainly used; they were endowed with special magical properties capable of implementing various life tasks.

Talismans were used to increase wealth, make a successful trade deal, become a participant in some profitable enterprise, and attract the forces of nature to one’s side. Thus, our ancestors knew how, for example, to attract rain during the summer drought in order to increase productivity, and also to disperse rain clouds when rain was undesirable.

The amulets performed a protective function - they helped preserve the integrity of the family, the health of all its members, the love between spouses, contributed to the birth of healthy children, and protected the home and property. Our Slavic ancestors were very sensitive to nature, knew a lot about its power and strength, and knew how to use them at the right time.

Possessing the secrets of the interaction between nature and man, they believed in higher power, they revered many Gods, each of whom they endowed with a specific set of character traits, elements and powers to control it. Mystical halo of rituals, runes, magic amulets and runic symbols of amulets are important elements of ancient Slavic culture, who played a key role in the development of this unique and powerful (at that time) civilization.

Slavic runes - what are they?

This concept itself means a certain set of special signs/symbols, which are both a magical instrument and an ancient alphabet of the peoples living in Northern Europe. The word “rune” itself (from “run”) means “secret” or “secret”. Later, the ancient runic writing was supplanted by the Latin alphabet, but did not disappear, but took on a new quality - it began to be used for fortune telling, magical rituals, creating amulets and amulets, talismans.

There are several variants of runic writing; the most widespread are the ancient Germanic and Slavic runes. It is known that the ancient Slavs had many more runes at their disposal, but modern society knows only eighteen of them. You can interpret their meaning only if you:

  • understand ranking Slavic gods;
  • you know each deity by name, as well as the element for which each of the gods is responsible;
  • understand the “language of runes”;
  • master methods (magical Slavic rituals) of interaction with the gods;
  • capable of controlling the forces of nature through runes.

Which runes are the most powerful?

We can safely say that they cannot be divided into “strong” and “weak”, since each of them, having unique properties, performs a specific task. Each rune can be used separately or in combination with other runes that add up in combination with a certain number of them. How many runes you intend to use depends on the complexity of the task that your amulets must accomplish and your desire to solve it as efficiently as possible.

The best practice is making runes with your own hands

Based on this, it can be noted that ancient Slavic runic symbols are designed to solve various problems. The confrontation between Darkness (Chaos) and Light (Good) lies at the heart of Slavic culture, our ancestors firmly believed in this, so protective amulets were a priority. With their help, the Slavic tribes tried to resist the forces of evil and negative energy of natural origin or specifically directed by unkind people. For example, the runes Dazhdbog, Perun, and Mir have such powerful protective power.

Runes such as Need and Chernobog belong to the elements of Chaos. However, runic symbols that have the power of Chaos should not be classified as unconditional Evil, since, together with the forces of Light, they are fundamental for the existence of all living and nonliving things in the world. Without them, the spiritual world would not exist. Their main purpose is the destruction and destruction of something unnecessary, sick and outdated, so that something new can be built in its place. Destruction always underlies the creation of something new.

Choosing material for making runes

Our ancestors used improvised materials to make Slavic runic symbols - wood, leather, bone, paper, stone, fabric, clay tablets, etc. To begin with, they made a base from the selected material - small elements of arbitrary shape (more often they were round, rectangular or square) and applied runic symbolism to their surface.

Our ancestors had silver as a priority - a metal closely associated with the Good, possessing antiseptic properties and a pronounced healing effect on living organisms. Oak, cedar, spruce, and birch wood were widely used. Nowadays, many also prefer to make runic security symbols independently, rightly believing that such amulets will have special power and fully correspond to their purpose. Ready-made protective products made of silver (sometimes gold), made in the form of original and beautiful jewelry, are also popular.

Modern man is not deprived of the opportunity through magical Slavic runes:

  • adjust your own destiny;
  • receive help and protection from higher powers in your creative development;
  • count on their patronage in career matters;
  • expect their assistance in matters of interaction and understanding between people;
  • acquire a powerful incentive for self-development, etc.

In any area of ​​human life, characterized by some regression or stagnation, you can use the magic of Slavic runes to eliminate negative aspects and acquiring powerful positive energy.

Features of Slavic runes

The appearance of the prototype modern writing In Rus', our society is indebted to the works of the pioneer printers Methodius and Cyril, who invented the Old Church Slavonic language of Glagolitic and Cyrillic alphabet. Before this, our ancestors did not use alphabetic writing, but runic writing.

In addition to written signs, runes were also endowed with a secret magical meaning, where each symbol was given certain value for fortune telling and witchcraft.

Designation of Slavic runes

Slavic magicians and sorcerers widely used runic signs in their practice, providing ordinary people magical help to solve various problems.

Protective amulets in the form of runes, charged with positive and powerful energy, from such masters were considered very effective and efficient. In addition, runic script was applied to various household items, “woven” into fabric, and decorated with clothing.

Silver was revered as a noble magical metal, so amulets made from it were very valuable and, first of all, they tried to buy silver amulet with runic signs for children in order to protect them from various misfortunes. It was customary to wear runes made of gold when a person experienced a loss of strength, discord in the household, and was plagued by failures.

  • the man himself;
  • his worldview, attitude to the world;
  • direction vector (+/-) of its energy;
  • characteristics of the goal;
  • the degree of determination and readiness on the path to achieving it, etc.

The body of Ancient Knowledge is hidden in the secret writing of Slavic runes. The practice of pagan traditions is still used today to achieve certain goals. Amulets with different runic signs perform different functions: they predict, protect, help, warn. You should never forget that the rune is only a guide to magical mysteries and a tool that allows you to use them; the final result of the desired depends entirely on the person himself.

Runes are symbols created entirely different cultures and peoples. Naturally, this was done separately, different meanings were put into them, but they have something in common. Any runes are the quintessence of the energy of civilization, its moral, ethical and cultural meaning.

That is why there is so much goodness in Slavic runes. Our ancient people considered love to be the main force in life. Each symbol he created is a talisman and amulet for those who profess the values ​​of the Russian world. So, more about the meaning of Slavic runes.

Fortune telling with runes

The principle of fortune telling with three runes

It is believed that runes are able to predict the outcome of a situation. Using a minimal set of self-made Slavic runes (even drawn on plain paper), you can already conduct a fortune-telling session.

To create a suitable atmosphere, it is permissible to use incense, essential oils, and other attributes you like. The question you are interested in should be short and clear, so concentrate on the situation and think about simplifying the question.

There are quite a few varieties of runes, and among them the most famous is the Scandinavian version.

Our Russian ancestors did not have their own runic alphabet. But the system built by modern Rodnovers really works as a mantic and magical instrument. It is based on a deep knowledge of Slavic culture and mythology and the heritage of the related people of the Scandinavians (Varangians).

In ancient times, symbols were often used by people who endowed them with special meaning and power. In all countries, magicians, priests, and shamans used them to protect them from evil spells, from bad influences, from everything that brought trouble.

Interpretations

In this section we will consider in detail the description of Slavic runes, their meaning and combination in interpretation with each other. Anyone who is just learning the magic of runes should not take on making amulets and amulets with complex symbolism.

Dark runes

The runes Need and Chernobog are signs of Darkness and Chaos. Together with the symbols of Light, they underlie the existence of all living and nonliving things on Earth.

However, the main mission of “dark” runes is to destroy everything that is sick and unnecessary to make room for something new. Most religions of the world agree that creation is impossible without destruction.

Alatyr

The center of the Universe, the end and beginning of life on Earth.

The rune denotes the cycle of light and dark forces, or Belbog and Chernobog. This is the very center of the Universe, the end and beginning of life on Earth. Alatyr also symbolizes the law of Balance, the circulation of events and phenomena in the world and the return of everything to its original position.

According to Slavic mythology, Alatyr is a stone that stands on the island of Buyan and is the navel of the earth, all roads begin under it and it is from it that all rivers begin their flow. At the same time, Alatyr serves as a throne for the gods and magic stone, where sacrifices are made to higher powers.

Support

Traditionally, the gods were perceived by the Slavs as pillars, supports; in the ancient languages ​​of the northern peoples, even the words god and pillar sounded the same. Also, a pillar is a pole, a shaman’s tree, along which he climbs straight to heaven. It turns out that the poles are also gods, giving shamans the strength to travel.

In fortune telling, the fallen rune of Support is most often interpreted as support provided by the gods. It is also a symbol of the fact that a person is given the opportunity to gain strength of spirit, strong support, and an unshakable position, which will allow him to cope with any obstacles in life.

Questions from visitors and answers from experts:

Source

Cold rune, meaning “freezing” everything - diseases, social phenomena, attacks of rage and aggression. However, “freezing” in this case does not mean elimination. This is only a temporary stop of some negative processes and events, giving a respite.

The rune also protects from external processes and internal thoughts and torment. It creates a so-called shell that does not allow you to feel negativity.

The magical meaning of the rune is stagnant phenomena and processes, the onset of a crisis in personal relationships or in the business sphere.

If during fortune telling you get the Source rune, it should be considered as good sign. The frozen state will not last forever. It carries within itself the powerful force of further thawing, development, and movement forward, which is symbolized by the rune Is.

Eat

The rune of Life itself and movement, the naturalness of being - as opposed to dead immobility. It is also a symbol of divine forces, by whose will trees grow and life juices are carried through their trunks. The Rune Is makes blood run through a person’s veins.

In magical terms, the rune Is symbolizes movement, development, growth, renewal of a situation or process. All of this follows the temporary freeze that the Source brings. It is the rune Is that ensures the life process on Earth, through the harmonious combination of the runes of Krad and Dazhdbog, although they are in an eternal struggle.

Rainbow

The Rainbow Rune is a road that is predetermined by the unity and confrontation of the forces of Belbog and Chernobog. In turn, the path means something more significant than movement in time and space. This is at the same time a state that is neither like vanity nor like peace. It is somewhere in the middle between Chaos and divine Order.

When doing fortune telling, the Rainbow rune symbolizes stable movement forward, assistance in travel, positive resolution of difficult and confusing life situations. In general, the rune can be characterized by the formula “do what you must, and let what will be be.”

The Rainbow rune was also borrowed from the Scandinavians. In the original it is called “Raido”, which translates as “road”.

Rock

Rune Rock is a symbol of the unmanifested divine Spirit, which is both the beginning and the end of all things on Earth. The symbol is similar to the Eastern Tao and can be illustrated by the words of Herodotus: “What is destined by fate, even God cannot avoid it.”

The magical meaning of the symbol: unknown higher forces begin to influence the current situation, so its outcome, like the future in general, cannot be predicted. The Rock rune is also used to dedicate something - an object, a situation, a phenomenon - to the Unknowable.

Perun

The pantheon of Slavic gods is represented in the system by the symbols of Perun, Dazhdbog, Krad, Belbog and Chernobog. The rune Perun symbolizes the thunderer, who protects both gods and mere mortals from the forces of Darkness. It is a sign of masculinity, strength, power and straightforwardness.

In fortune telling, Perun can mean the emergence of a powerful force that can move the situation forward or provide additional energy. Also, the rune of the thunderer can indicate personal power and divine power, protecting against mental or physical destruction.

Dazhdbog

The meaning of this rune is Good, in every sense. This is both material - money, things, and spiritual - joy, love, prosperity. The main attribute of Dazhdbog is the horn of plenty, in other variations it is an inexhaustible cauldron of all kinds of benefits. The Scandinavians call him Freira, the Celts call him Dagda.

The Dazhdbog symbol indicates a quick improvement in your financial or spiritual condition.

During fortune telling, the appearance of the Dazhdbog symbol indicates an imminent improvement in your financial or spiritual condition. This could be the acquisition of something, the development of new relationships and connections, making new acquaintances, as well as a favorable outcome of some important actions.

Steal

The word "krada" has Slavic roots and means sacrificial fire. Thus, Krada is a rune of fire, close to the German Gebo and Kano. According to pagan beliefs, fire is a divine gift and the power that embodies the manifestation of the divine in the Middle World.

Krada is the rune of speech, since the northern peoples have always believed in the power of the word, its correspondence to the plan. Also, Krada symbolizes the loss of everything superficial, alluvial, since fire symbolizes purification, embodiment and realization of all intentions.

World

One of the most difficult runes to interpret. From the point of view of the ancient pagans, Belbog represents ordinary person in the form of a god. At the same time, God personifies the entire world around us. This means that mere mortals are a reflection of this world, or macrocosms.

The World rune indicates the divine nature inner world man and symbolizes the forces directing the World to the absolute Order established by the gods. In fortune telling, the Belbog rune means patronage and protection from the forces of light.

Chernobog

The rune of Chernobog symbolizes a deity who is in constant conflict with Belbog. If Belbog strives to bring the World to ideal Order, then Chernobog is aimed at destruction, Chaos. However, defining them as “good” and “evil” is wrong, since only when these gods confront each other is Balance maintained.

Chernobog represents a trinity: the trickster god, the jester god and the clown god; all of them are in an eternal struggle with the Guardian of the Order established by other gods and constantly violate the boundaries of this Order. Also, the Chernobog rune symbolizes the unconscious. Its magical interpretation is a gap vicious circle, destruction of outdated connections.

Runic amulets of the Slavs

For long rune service, it is important to choose the right material. The simplest is stone, metal or wood. They recommend making them from wood, stone, and metal. The lightest and most amenable to processing is wood, so most runes are most often made from wood. The selected wood is cut into small pieces; an oval shape is best used. The pieces are processed, then symbols are applied to them. Each rune is varnished and placed in a fabric bag.

Stone and metal are difficult to process, so these runes are quite difficult to make at home. Although a rune made from stone has great strength than a metal one, and a metal one has more power than a wooden rune.

You can order the production from a master, but the runes will be better connected to you. Especially applying symbols to runes is an important step. This is when the combination of runes with your energy begins. And you should not neglect this in the initial stages of creation. Runes must be stored in a bag made of soft and always natural fabric. It can be cotton or linen fabric.

How to activate a rune - place the rune in your palm, hold it, close your eyes and think about good things. Imagine what you want and what goals you want to achieve. This eliminates all negative effects if the rune was not made by you.

Conclusion

Don’t forget, before you start practicing, telling fortunes with runes, creating amulets and amulets, be sure to study the theory, and carefully, and not superficially. You need to know it thoroughly, every sign, every combination, otherwise you can harm yourself and those who receive your amulets. The formula must be composed correctly, because even positive symbols in an incorrectly composed formula will give a negative result. The effect will not be at all what is expected.

Slavic amulets in the form of runes have long been used by people to protect against evil spirits, damage, the evil eye and more. negative impact per person.

In addition, they helped, giving strength and guiding me in the right direction. People made the right decisions, got rid of problems and believed that it was runic amulets that helped them in this. They were depicted on everything:

  • Doors and walls of houses.
  • Clothing and interior items, dishes.
  • Military uniforms, weapons, ships, etc.

To use the power of runes to their full potential, you need to decide which symbol is right for you, and for this you need to know the meaning of each of them. Therefore, the topic of today’s article is about what runes are, amulets in the form of runes, their meanings and how to make them with your own hands.

Origin

Today there are many guesses about where the runes came from. But there is very little evidence about which of them is true, so we can say that these are only assumptions, and their true origin is still unknown to us.

However, it is known that the most ancient of the runic symbols are related to the 2-3 centuries AD. But many of them are very similar to the symbols found on the walls of Bronze Age caves. Most likely, they preceded the appearance of Slavic runes. It is believed that those ancient symbols were intended for various kinds of predictions and had one common quality with the runes that we see today. Both of them have magical properties.

According to Scandinavian legends, runes were given to people by God Odin, who, in order to understand their meaning, pierced himself with a spear, thereby nailing him to the Yggdrasil tree. So he hung there for nine days, increasing his knowledge and unraveling the meaning of the runes.

It should also be noted what method was used to apply these signs. They were carved on stone, wood or bone using knives or ritual weapons. In addition to the above places of application, runic symbols were made separately for fortune telling.

Meaning

Runic talismans are a system of signs that were used by the Germanic and Scandinavian peoples for writing. The word “rune” itself is translated as magic, mystery, magic. Exist historical information, according to which they were used for various magical rituals. Therefore, the meaning of Slavic and Scandinavian runes expands significantly: applied to weapons and ships, they increased their strength significantly.

In addition, amulets in the form of runes were used in other areas of life. They were applied to the walls and doors of houses, interior and household items, and clothing. Thus, protecting the family from troubles and diseases, they protected the home from evil people And evil spirits, contributed to strengthening the love of a married couple and the birth of children. Often, Slavic runic amulets were used to attract good luck in business, favorable completion of a transaction, attract fortune and even the forces of nature to one’s side.

Our ancient ancestors knew how to use the natural elements for their own purposes. For example, they called for rain when there was a drought, and vice versa, they dispersed clouds when there was excess moisture. For all this, special rituals were carried out, in which they often used runes and their power. That is why the meaning of runes is much greater than written characters.

It is worth noting that they were used not only separately. A combination of several runes was often used at the same time. Thus, their strength increased, and with it the opportunity to get what they planned. At the same time, it cannot be said that some of them have greater strength and energy than others. Each of them is strong in its own way, has its own meaning and is intended for specific purposes.

To try their power for yourself, you need to formulate the question correctly. With runes at your disposal, you are unlikely to know the answer to the question of when you will meet your soul mate. Or what tomorrow will be like for you. Slavic and Scandinavian symbols answer more global questions. For example, for what reason you are unable to implement your plans. Or they will help those who are in doubt to make the right choice.

To receive their power and help, just a photo is not enough; the runes must be made or drawn with your own hands. You can do it on a sheet of paper, but preferably something thick (cardboard). If you have problems, for example, in your intimate life, then such a sheet should be placed, say, under the pillow, so that it is not in sight. But such a runic talisman is designed to solve one specific problem in a short time.

There are 24 runes, and each of them corresponds to a specific human desire. Therefore, you need to carefully study their meanings before choosing any for yourself. Otherwise, it will not come true, and the Gods may be angry with you for such negligence.

What do signs look like and what are they for?

Slavic runes are signs carved on a small piece of wood or metal. Today there are two areas where they are used: amulets and fortune telling. As for the second, you should not take on this without thoroughly studying all the intricacies of this matter. It’s better to contact a specialist or figure it out yourself, but keep in mind that this will take a lot of time. Each rune has its own meaning depending on its location. There are reversible and irreversible runes, and it is also important in what sequence they are located.

It will be much easier to use the power of runes as a talisman. It is enough to decide on your desires and choose one of the runes to fulfill them, depending on its meaning. For example, one common human desire is wealth or financial wealth. The Fehu rune is perfect for this; its main goal is to attract and preserve finances, as well as movable and immovable property.

In addition, it promotes health growth. Used in all runic connections aimed at both. It has a powerful force, so it must be used with caution, especially in combination with other symbols. Most perfect option- a runescript of three Fehu, such a talisman will not overwhelm you banknotes, but will create many conditions for making money.

The Urus rune will be an excellent talisman for those who need to improve their health. Replenishes loss of health, immunity and vital energy. The image of this rune is the image of a bull, it is similar to its horns, and therefore endows its owner with unbridled energy and strength, which is necessary to realize the opportunities that Fehu provides. You also need to be careful with it so that the energy that Urus gives does not turn against you.

Another frequently used rune is Ansuz. Translated it means “Words of the Gods”, i.e. signs coming to us from above. Endows its owner with wisdom and eloquence, relieves timidity. Helps people develop their speaking and Creative skills. An excellent assistant for presentations and exams. And another property of Ansuz is the creation of a connection between lovers on a telepathic level.

The rune symbolizing light, fire, torch is Kenaz. But this fire does not have destructive power, it is completely controlled and is aimed at maintaining the fuse. Very suit creative people, helping them create and not lose creative energy. Kenaz is often used to enhance the powers of other runes.

Vunyo is a rune endowed with the most positive energy. Joy, happiness, luck in all areas of life, this is what Vunyo gives to its owner. An excellent assistant in family, love, work and other matters. Can be safely used in all amulets and runescripts. If it fell out during fortune telling, you can relax. This means that the period has come when you will succeed without unnecessary fuss and excitement.

All these talismans can be made with your own hands. So, first you need to choose the material from which the Slavic runic amulet will be made. Our ancient ancestors used leather, wood, stone, paper, and bones for this. Later they began to give preference to silver.

This choice was explained by the fact that it is this metal that heals and acts as an antiseptic. Today there is a lot of jewelry that is made in the form of runic signs. But it’s still better to make it yourself, so it will have much greater power.

Naturally, in order for the power of the rune to act for a long time, you should not put it on paper. It is better to give preference to metal, wood or stone. Wooden runic amulets are more common, this is due to the fact that it is easier to work with. Select a tree and cut it into small pieces. They can be round, oval or square.

Treat it so that there are no small splinters and apply the rune. It can be burned, cut or painted. After which the amulet must be varnished. On stone, it is best to use the paint option, since carving on stone is more difficult. But many people can do this on metal.

As we already wrote above, silver was most often used to create a runic amulet. Such amulets were made mainly for children to protect them from evil spirits and other negative influences. For people who suffered from loss of strength and failure, runes were made of gold.

Each rune has its own color. And the most important condition when creating them: all materials must be natural. As, in fact, is the storage place for amulets: a bag made of natural fabrics. The final stage is the ritual with which you activate the rune. The simplest thing is to hold it in your hand with eyes closed, thinking about good things and your desire. This ritual is especially necessary if you purchased a talisman from another person.

And remember: do not start making a runic amulet without studying the meaning of each of the runes. This is very important point, because even if you draw several runes in a row that carry positive energy, together they can have the opposite effect. Author: Natalia Chernikova
