A unique magical tool through which one can grasp the essence and meaning of Northern magic is the runes. They are intended to unlock the foundations of consciousness and establish a connection with the outer worlds of Yggdrasil. The first eight runes represent the first eight powers given to every person at birth. These are the basic, primal forces embedded by nature itself. Everyone possesses them, and if a person is strong in will and spirit, they will be resilient to external influences, and all these powers will be well-manifested within them.
