It has a good balance between the scholarly aspects of rune study and the spiritual side of working with them. Thankfully this is also a book written from a universalist perspective. Paxson credits other authors which is helpful, and also acknowledges where her interpretations are due to her personal insight or journey. Although this is abook intended to support a rune working or study group, if you are studying alone or already have some experience and knowledge of runes, this is still an excellent resource. In my view, this should be a key resource for anyone studying runes and eliminates the need to trawl through the mass of dubious books available. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heathen-tastic *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 5 March 2012* this book is a definitive guide to all things runic - from the basic meanings of each rune to the use of the runes in rituals and magic. It is a rich and valuable source of Norse knowledge breathing life back into the old religion, hailya and thank you Diana ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An excellent work. *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 2 May 2019* The book does just what the author says. ## Frequently Bought Together - Taking Up the Runes: A Complete Guide to Using Runes in Spells, Rituals, Divination, and Magic - Runes for Beginners: A Guide to Reading Runes in Divination, Rune Magic, and the Meaning of the Elder Futhark Runes (Divination for Beginners Series) - The Poetic Edda: Stories of the Norse Gods and Heroes (Hackett Classics) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ni/products/221952079-taking-up-the-runes-a-complete-guide-to-using-runes](https://www.desertcart.ni/products/221952079-taking-up-the-runes-a-complete-guide-to-using-runes) --- *Product available on Desertcart Nicaragua* *Store origin: NI* *Last updated: 2026-09-09*
