on my latest trip to the beach, i collected enough fragments to complete a project i’d been envisioning: a seashell nordic rune set. each piece i chose has a relatively smooth white side, onto which i painted a black rune and sealed it with a light coat of clear nail polish. they’re pleasing in the hands, and they are shaped so distinctly by the ocean’s energy that they feel intrinsically magical and a perfect medium for divination.

since i’m new to casting runes, i also spent some time adding extended rune meanings to my grimoire. they are paraphrased from an excellent series by @grumpylokeanelder - please go check those out! i also added some tarot correspondences to help me cross-reference as i learn.

they were finished in time to charge under the solstice full moon, but i haven’t found the right time yet to start getting to know them…

As a follow up to a post about DIY grimoires I saw last night, but can’t find again: Being specialized in grimoires, I have worked with about 200 originals from the 16-/17-/1800’s. Here are a few spreads. As you can see, they are all quite a mess, which means your personal grimoire doesn’t have to be perfect! Also, don’t worry about your book not appearing old and original - it will be in 50 years automatically. (Maybe even sooner, in these times where children almost aren’t taught handwriting anymore) 😄 Stay magical!
