Divination offers much more value than simply "predicting the future" in vague or ominous terms. When used right, a divinatory practice can help you better understand yourself and the world we all live in together. However, each divinatory tool comes with its own strengths and challenges. Divination using runes is often free-form and each user needs to develop their own technique. My system for divining with runes, the 8 Paths Method, is designed to address this challenge, and to make it more intuitive to blend various divination tools for more complex and unique readings.
The 8 Paths Method gives structure and context to divinatory rune readings. This guide will help you deepen your intuitive understanding of the runes themselves and get you started with the 8 Paths Method. This system for divination is entirely based in Unverified Personal Gnosis (UPG) and was developed through intuitive exploration and some divine inspiration.
For those who are new to using runes for divination, this method can help you expand your bank of meanings for each rune and provide a framework for readings.
For more experienced practitioners, this method offers you a new path to explore and a way to give detail-rich readings while conserving energy.
