I am so excited to announce that I have created a deck based on the Elder Futhark Bindrunes! It has taken me almost two years to conceptualize, design and find a home for it. The deck is available @ MakePlayingCards and the book @ Amazon! I have already created several Free Oracle Cards on All Natural Spirit, so you are familiar with my methods to madness! LOL! These are very popular and if you like my style on these, I’m sure that you’ll enjoy the Celestial Rune Sigils Deck and Celestial Rune Sigils Book too!

Celestial Rune Sigils – The Metaphysician’s Toolbox

Summary of the Deck

My studies into the Elder Futhark, which have fascinated me since childhood, have been converted into a coherent system of bindrunes for everyday use without the requirement of expert knowledge. My bindrune project, named the Celestial Rune Sigils has transformed into a deck of 24 black and white cards, representative of their origins from the 24 Elder Futhark Runes, with details on their crafting, uses and invocation. The Old English Rune Poem is used as a descriptive guide for the Elder Futhark using 24 stanzas. Similarly, the Celestial Rune Sigils contain keywords and short verses on each card to describe the intention for each bindrune. It has taken me over a year to create this set of 24 bindrunes, as I wanted the deck to develop at its own pace, which would ensure quality and authenticity. It is not necessarily just a divinatory deck, but rather it has a more active role with each card having a specific intention and contribution towards metaphysical, spiritual and magickal rituals. Therefore, the deck is not only restricted to tarot readers or oracle enthusiasts. It has been created for the larger metaphysical community and would be of special interest to our energy workers and magick wielders. It is appropriate for most ages, including the very young and those who are wiser, since it can be used as a personal deck and as a deck to assist clients during various healing or magick sessions. This deck also makes a great travel companion.

2020 Update: CRS Guidebook converted into eBook!

“Very different perspective of the runes loved the different meanings keywords given to the runes used by the author I found them and the book to be quite spiritual it was certainly food for thought re designing my own bindrunes it was well written and enhanced my knowledge helping me look at the runes with fresh eyes I like the fact the elemental symbols were also used I’d also buy a book if the author wrote one on divinitory meanings very enjoyable writing style”

Amazon UK Review by Bruno, Celestial Rune Sigils Book

“The book gives some brief lore surrounding Elder Futhark, as well as the 24 symbols and the author’s interpretations. The majority of it, however, is the thinking behind the creation of specific bindrunes as magical sigils used for specific purposes.

While initially it seems the book is designed to be a supplement for the sigil deck the author has also created, it gains more depth as you progress. It’s interesting to gain insight into the author’s process in their own practice. I especially liked the creation of poems to go along with each sigil, and this will be something I try to incorporate into my own bindrune practice…”

Goodreads Review by BJ, Celestial Rune Sigils Book

“This was very well organized. I was able to dive in and feel more at ease learning about runes, and bind runes designs, than I could laterally, reading through a variety of different tabs online. Thank you for making this guide.”

Goodreads Review by Megan, Celestial Rune Sigils Book

The deck is a metaphysical, spiritual or magickal toolbox, with each card representing a different metaphysical tool. Each card can be used in this way, much as one would use a wand, crystal or other spiritual tool. There is a lot of freedom as to how precisely to apply each card and I hope that the practitioners who make use of this deck will find their own intuitive ways of applying each of the cards during their spiritual journeys and magickal rituals.

NB! Celestial Rune Sigils is the only Elder Futhark BindRune Deck and Book currently available! (That I know of… 😉 )

Future Oracle Projects (Watch This Space!)

I am working on a few more oracle deck ideas, all of which I am going to place on MakePlayingCards! I have tried a few publishers with the Celestial Rune Sigils Deck, but I think I have the same problem here as with my some of my PhD work – I get told that because nobody else has done what I am doing and because there are no other references, it simply will  not work (or sell in this case), even though there is nothing wrong with the concept, logic, analyses and the results are informative! I also believe that you cannot say something won’t work/sell if you have not tried it yet…

Anyways, I’ve gone off topic now…

I am planning on creating a comprehensive and structured divinatory system for the Elder Futhark (a proper oracle deck essentially with a little added colour too!) in the near future, which does not derive from the Norse system or clings to the Old English Rune Poem interpretations, but tries to be more inclusive of all the descendants from the Germanic tribes and the evolution of esoteric knowledge. I have a lot of its concepts sorted and organized, but I still need to bring it all together in a cohesive and aesthetically pleasing way (and writing its rather detailed guidebook!). This Elder Futhark Oracle deck will also include an easy learning system derived from the black and white Elder Futhark Travel cards that I have already created (BTW these have been redesigned into a deck as well: Elder Futhark Runes Mini Oracle and is available on MakePlayingCards too!). I am also thinking of another bindrune system, different to the Celestial Rune Sigils, but I’m still batting ideas around my head on this one…

Enlightment Sigil Merch!

Let me know what you think & I would love feedback on my books and decks! 😉
