Why English-Speaking People Should Use the Anglo-Frisian Futhorc

Here are three forms of casting runes specifically for the Anglo-Saxon Futhorc:

  1. Wyrd’s Web: This method involves drawing a single rune from the bag and meditating on its meaning. This is often used for gaining insight into a specific question or situation.
  2. The Three Cauldrons Spread: This method involves drawing three runes from the bag. The first rune represents the past (Cauldron of Memory), the second represents the present (Cauldron of Vocation), and the third represents the future (Cauldron of Warming). This spread can provide a detailed understanding of the progression of a situation.
  3. The Saxon Wheel: This is a more complex form of rune casting. It involves drawing eight runes and placing them in a circular formation. Each rune represents a different aspect of the situation (Self, Family, Possessions, Communications, Health, Partnerships, Spirituality, Career). This spread can provide a comprehensive overview of a situation.

Remember, interpreting runes requires intuition and an understanding of the symbols. The Anglo-Saxon Futhorc, being a variant of the runic alphabets with additional runes, has deep historical and cultural significance, so it’s always a good idea to spend some time studying the meanings of these runes before attempting to interpret them.
