gemstones, runes and zodiac
Runes are an Alphabet used by Ancient Scandinavian tribes about 2000 years ago. However Runes are not only letters, but also magical symbols. Runes were used for divination, to attract good fortune and to provide protection from various evil forces and events. Love, good luck, protection against evil etc. are as important today as they were centuries ago. The table below contains combinations of Rune and gemstone in correspondence with the Zodiac sign.
