Rune stones used for divination, introspect, and decision making are a modern day concept. Many people do not realize that rune stones were not used for this purpose during their early origins. Real rune stones are much larger in size than the smaller stones used for divination purposes. The Vikings used rune stones as head markers for the dead to represent the passing of an individual’s life. These giant size stones are commonly found in Scandinavia, and throughout other northern parts of Europe where the Vikings settled. Christian priests destroyed many of these larger commemorative markers because they associated the stones with paganism.

Today, rune stones are used by many to guide people on a spiritual journey and help individuals formulate decisions in their lives. The word “rune” itself stands for “whisper” or “secret”. Many people believe that these stones act as a communication between the living and the dead. Rune stones used for divination purposes sent people to the burning stakes back in the late 1600’s. Often these stones were used  to communicate with the Gods who influenced life forces such as the sun, moon, tides, spiritual healing, and even curses. People who used these stones were condemned as witches and prosecuted. Modern day rune stones are seen as a “freeing of the spirit”, and rune sets typically come with books or instructions sheets on how to use them. Traditional rune stones used for divination purposes were designed out of wood. Now rune sets come in ceramic, glass, plastic and semi-precious of numerous different colors. Rune stones formulate a mystical alphabet better known as the FUTHARK. There are 24 runic signs divided into 3 separate families, each consisting of 8 rune stones  group. These families are better known as an Aett. A spirit or Norse God controls each individual family, and each stone is believed to have its own special spiritual meaning.
