Hi Arne,

Rune formula is normally represented by a sequence of runes in a particular order, let’s go with small example. Let’s say you are looking for support from runes to buy an estate. One of the formulas that might help could be: ᚠᛃᛟ

Fehu – means finances, money etc

Jera – mean increase and scaling

Odal – means estate

While I would not claim this is the best formula, but conceptually hope it gives you an idea. So we have a particular order of runes with some background behind this idea and that’s what we call rune formula.

Bind runes are a more complex concept. When we are talking about bind runes, normally we consider a single complex symbol that embeds multiple runes in one glyph with idea behind it.

Hope it make sense.

 

Basically, that’s my question. Can someone help me to understand the difference?

Thanks

+1 Diana L. Paxson about Odin nice book to read

Hi,

It’s tricky 🙂 The main thing would be Yule log that must burn in firelace as long as it can… But these days just a limited number of people follow this tradition.

In general, everything related to fireplaces, candles, lighters, and cozy atmospheres would benefit the Yule environment. There is nothing specific here.

Hi,

Variety of books related to Norse Myths and history will +- consider Odin in most cases, so you can grab useful info about him out of them. But if you are looking for a book dedicated to Odin, you could consider:

– Odin: Ecstasy, Runes, & Norse Magic (by Diana L. Paxson)

Here it is: https://www.amazon.com/Odin-Ecstasy-Runes-Norse-Magic/dp/1578636108
I am sure there are more option, but that one I’ve read recently enough and it’s good to go.

 

Any good suggestion what to read to learn more about Odin god?
Thanks!

What are the traditional symbols and decorations associated with Yule, and what do they represent?
