📜 Historical context

Runes originate from the Germanic peoples of Northern Europe, where they served as an alphabetic system for writing. Over centuries, these characters acquired various folkloric and esoteric associations in European tradition. This book approaches runes not as ancient magical formulas but as a living symbolic language, adapting their shapes and traditional connotations to support modern practices of boundary-setting and self-knowledge.
