Runes were first used over 1500 years ago by the East Goths, and later appeared throughout England and Scandinavia. As Christianity took hold, the use of runic alphabets in divination became reviled as a pagan practice. The word "rune" itself comes from an early Anglo-Saxon word meaning "secret" or "mystery", and they remain an enigma to the world at large. Runes were initially most popular among Wiccans and modern pagans, but have enjoyed unprecedented mainstream adoption in the past 30 years.
This unique Runes set have been carved into 25 tumbled crystals, each symbol is on a different crystal, and is presented in an organza bag with silver trimmings. This set also comes with a instruction booklet with explanations for each symbol.
