Symbols and Signs

Good Fortune

This is an all-purpose rune, often used to close correspondence. It is also drawn on packages, inscribed on white candles to ensure fortune in all endeavors, or engraved onto jewelry. Victory

Used in legal battles as well as in general-purpose magic. Inscribe on red candles while in the midst of battles of all sorts. Draw in scarlet ink and burn during ritual or carry with you. Love

This is used not only to receive and strengthen love, but also to send love to a friend. Draw with emerald or pink ink, or visualize, engrave, and so on. May also be traced in pans of cooking food with a spoon or fork to infuse the food with loving vibrations. Comfort

To bring relief and ease pain, and to send or induce happiness and comfort to others. If you're depressed or anxious, stand before a mirror, looking into your eyes, and visualize this rune embracing your body. Or, carve onto a pink candle and burn. Wealth

Draw on your business card, if you have one. Visualize in your pocket, wallet, or purse. Trace with a money-attracting oil such as patchouli or cinnamon on paper money before spending to ensure its eventual return to you. Possession

Represents tangible objects. Use as a symbol to obtain a needed item. For instance, if you need furniture for your house, this rune could be manipulated magically to represent all the needed items.

Travel

When you wish or need to travel, trace this rune on paper with yellow ink, visualizing yourself traveling to your desired destination. Wrap it around a feather and throw it off a high cliff or mail to your intended destination. Or, carve on a yellow candle, place the candle in its holder over a picture of the place you wish to visit, and burn the candle.

Fertility

If you wish to become fertile, trace this rune with oil or visualize it in the sexual region. Can also be used to induce mental fertility, and in most growth-type spells.

Physical Health

To improve or strengthen health. Visualize while exercising, dieting, and deep breathing.

Healing

Use to aid healing of the sick. It can be drawn in blue ink directly on prescriptions, visualized on medicines before taking, traced above or in herbal medicinal potions. This rune can also be made into a talisman and worn.

Orderliness

To maintain a structured life, or to keep thoughts in good order. Wear the rune or trace on the forehead.

Protection

This complex sign can be marked on the home, your car, or on any objects you wish safeguarded. Sewn or embroidered on clothing or robes, it offers personal protection. Can also be made into an amulet and worn or carried. In times of danger when you have no access to such amulets, visualize this rune strongly.

Protection

Another like the last.

A Man

Use in conjunction with other runes to represent the subject of the spell. For example, if I wake up and can't seem to get my thoughts together, I might draw this rune with power on a piece of paper in yellow ink to represent myself. Then I'd draw the orderliness rune directly on top of the man rune, while visualizing myself attaining this state.

A Woman

Another like the last. Use in conjunction with other runes for spells.
