Ask the Norns

In Norse mythology the Norns were three female deities who spun thread and wove fabric to determine the fates of humans and gods alike. Often one of them negated the gifts of the other two or turned them into a curse. This reading provides yes-no answers to simple questions. Be sure your question is simple. Then choose the reading and evaluate the three runes to determine the answer. If you get WYRD as one of your runes, it is not yet time to judge the question or there are too many variables to receive a clear answer.

1. First Rune

Position one addresses the past, relative to your question. It shows what has led to your present state of mind.

Peorth / secret rune

When this rune appears, you know there is a hidden secret involved with your question. You may not know everything at this time, but you WILL find out at the right time. A generally positive rune, it indicates a recovery of health where there was illness, an advancement where there was delay, any unexpected benefit which results from appropriate action in the past.

2. Second Rune

This rune is for the present. In addition, rune 2 can represent your present STATE OF MIND,

Ken / bonfire

The giving and receiving of love are seen in the rune KEN. For a male, expect to give; for a female, allow yourself to receive. The heat of such an exchange reflects the nature of fire in the rune. The positive creative energy of the spring equinox is expressed wherever this rune appears. Whether man or woman, you will benefit from the processes of both giving and receiving.

3. Third Rune

Rune three looks into the future. It says something about the RESULT.

Ur / wild ox

Whereas cattle are domesticated animals, the ox is wild. This rune indicates that physical strength is a factor in your reading. Associated masculine qualities include vigor, determination, vitality and grit. These qualities are clearly not restricted to the males of the race; in a woman’s reading they represent strength used in a directed, assertive manner. Physical skill and training are important focuses in your reading.
