Explores how runes relate to the cycles of time. Detailing the
significance of natural time cycles in the Northern Tradition,
Nigel Pennick explores how the stars, planets, seasons, months, and
the precessional year relate to the runes. The author explains how
the runes are more than just an ancient European alphabet—they
encapsulate particular spiritual and symbolic meanings to
individually and collectively express deep eternal truths.
Discussing the pagan wheel of the year, whose eightfold path later
served the Church as the basis for the eight holy celebrations of
its religious calendar, he looks at the meanings and temporal
qualities of the 24 runes of the Elder Futhark and their rapport
with ancient timekeeping and star-reading methods. He offers charts
and calculations to discern which rune is the primary influence on
a particular day, week, month, season, or year. He also examines
runic elemental and color associations and their esoteric spatial
roles, where they represent the four directions, the eight airts,
and other cycles critical to understanding the sacred nature of the
material world. Exploring runic astrology, Pennick looks at the
runes as they relate to the planets and their cycles. He then
presents ways to use this knowledge for calculating runic birth
charts and runic horoscopes. Revealing the importance of the
patterns and cycles of time operating in our world, the author
provides a means for reconnecting with these primal
principles—which underlie our existence as beings in
time—through the ancient wisdom of runes.
