Using all twenty-four runes. The Futhark Layout
gives the most comprehensive reading of any
of the previous layouts. Because the nature
of this spread is a personal overview of the
next year, the Futhark Layout is the perfect
reading for New Year's day. The question you
ask in this reading will relate to the
influences that will affect you over the next
twelve months.
The Futhark Layout also takes more time than
other readings. You not only need to pull all
the runes, but also to read each one in relation
to the rune that rules its position in the aett.
It is suggested you write this rune reading down
in your journal and take a look at it from time
to time over the next few months. This will give
you added perspective and help you to understand
the reading fully.
Spend at least five minutes mixing the runes
or rune cards while you focus on your life over
the next year. Then pull the runes, one at a time,
placing them faceup, in three vertical rows of eight,
starting with the left row, as shown above in the
layout. Each of these three rows represents one of
the three aettir. Read the pulled runes according
to the position in which they appear. For example,
if Wunjo appears in position #1 (Fehu), it may point
to the possibility of a joyful reward, such as the
money for a new home within the next year.
Following are the rune positions and their
corresponding meanings. The meanings are given in the
form os a question, making it easier to see how the
rune you pull relates to its position. Remember: This
reading pertains primarily to the next twelve months.
