Connection of Slavic runes with astrology. Astrology, runes, tarot cards
Runes and Astrology.
Runes and Signs of the Zodiac
These two systems are very close, since both influence the conscious life of a person and his destiny. Each Rune in astrology has its own archetype of the planet and the sign of the Zodiac.Currently, official science qualifies astrology as pseudoscience, because there are no 100% proven statistical patterns in the results. But at the same time, she admits that at a certain stage of her development astrology objectively stimulated the development of observationalastronomy , mathematics , meteorology and other areas of knowledge.
Some researchers attribute the occurrence astrology to a period of about 40-100 thousand years ago. If we look into the encyclopedic dictionary, we will find out that the word Astrology came from the fusion of two ancient Greek words: " ἄστρον" - starAnd "λόγος" - thought. Thus, already in antiquity peoplethey tried to catch some connection between the interaction of celestial bodies in the celestial sphere in terms of their movement and location relative to each other, and the impact of these bodies on the earthly world and man in particular. Man tried to put all his discoveries in this direction into a certain system of symbols. It was believed that such a universal system of astrological symbols, called the Zodiac, is the personification of divine powers and influences on human beings. fate.
The word Zodiac comes from the fusion of two ancient Greek words:"zoon" (animal) and "diakos" (wheel) - an imaginary circle along which the Sun passes its path. The visible path of the planets of the solar system and the moon passes through the zodiac constellations. And the imaginary circle passing in the cavity of the equator is divided into 12 sectors (zodiac houses). This division of the Zodiac is associated with the division of the year into 12 months. In astrology, the signs of the Zodiac are associated with ideas about the influence of constellations on human destinies, and each has its own characteristics.
The ancients believed that the Zodiac was formed by the body of the Great Man of the Universe (absolute). And this body they called " macrocosmos". It was divided into 12 main parts, each of which was controlled by celestial forces and planets resting in each of the zodiac constellations. There is also a concept " microcosm"is a small world of the universal system, concentrated in the human body. According to this concept, each sign of the Zodiac is assigned a correspondence to one of the 12 parts of the human body.
In early Christian literature, the signs of the Zodiac were associated with the 12 apostles. And each of the symbols was also put in line with some event in biblical history. For example - Aries (Lamb) personified Jesus Christ.
The idea of celestial epochs is also associated with the symbolism of the Zodiac, the length of the time period of which is 2160 years.. Each epoch gets its name from the sign the Sun passes each year after crossing the equator at the time of the vernal equinox. And each of them is characterized by specific features associated with the semantics of the Zodiac.
As already mentioned in the Meaning of the Runes section, the alphabetical order of the Futhark contains 24 Runes. And the Zodiac contains 12 signs. Thus, each sign corresponds to a rune. 25th Rune "Vert" or Rune of Odin corresponds to the concept of "absolute" - the point of calculus.
According to the conceptWorldTree of Life, Runes are divided into the following levels:
World of the Gods;
World of Nature;
World of Man.
To Peace Gods include Runes corresponding to the four elements:
Each Rune of this world corresponds on the astrological circle to the cardinal sign of the Zodiac.
Peace be with you nature Runes correspond:
To Peace Human runes include:
Runes, as well as the Zodiac, correlate with the planets, which imposes on them the main planetary characteristics.
All the planets of the universe are sources of life and each of them has its own sphere of action. They act as modes of the universe, endowed with specific characteristics and associated with specific feelings, smells, colors, metals, sounds, plants and stones... A clear connection between the planets and the Runes is captured here. After all, everything in this world is interconnected. Each Rune is associated with one or another mode of planetary characteristics and has common archetypes with it, i.e. deep symbols of the prototypes of the human soul.
The concept of archetypes became widely known thanks to the works of C. Jung, who saw in archetypes innate mental structures reproduced by the unconscious imagination of a person, his inner perception. And these associations are manifested in various myths and beliefs, in works of art, in dreams and fantasies. Every Myth is an original pattern or initial form life in which the conscious life fits.
In this section, we will look at the meanings of the Runes from an astrological or zodiacal point of view. And let's draw some general parallel between these characteristics in terms of archetypes. Runes and signs of the Zodiac.
consists of Essence Rune, Personality Rune and Golden Rune. Knowledge of the individual runic code will allow you to become the Creator of your own destiny, find happiness and achieve success in life. Why is that; Yes, because a person is very often subject to doubts about the path he has chosen. Having calculated your individual runic code, you will be surprised at how the meaning of the runes you have drawn coincides with your desire that warms you. You will understand that it was not in vain that you wanted to be what you wanted to be, to do what you wanted to do. And all doubts will disappear and, I hope, you will allow yourself to be yourself (life passes, so do not delay it).
Individual Runic Code.
Essence Rune:
The person's date of birth is taken. For example: 04/30/1979.
The sum of the numbers of the date of birth is calculated. 3 + 0 + 0 + 4 + 1 + 9 + 7 + 9 = 33 = 6. This number also consists of the day of birth (3 + 0 = 3), the month of birth (0 + 4 = 4) and the year of birth (1 + 9 + 7 + 9 = 26 = 8). 3 + 4 + 8 = 15 = 6.
In numerology, this is the Essence Number:
“The number of Essence is determined by the karmas of past lives. This theory is connected with the fact that each person must go through everything prepared for him by Fate. Nevertheless, knowing some moments of his life and deciphering the events, a person can make his life easier by changing it for the better and making it more harmonious. Each person chooses his own path. The number of the Essence affects the inner potential of each person, his abilities and talents, both inherent from birth and acquired throughout life. This number directs a person to a certain path that he needs to follow, as well as where to direct his energy. Based on this, the Number of the Essence received paramount importance. A person will meet serious obstacles in life if he acts against his natural capabilities.
In other schools of numerology, this number is called the Number of Destiny. It reveals the main thing that is destined for a person in this life. In Vedic numerology, the Destiny Number is a number obtained by adding the numbers of the date of birth, month and year. In Western numerology, this number is called the Life Path number:
“The number of Destiny is what you were sent to Earth with and what you should do. It shows what is in your personality, what talents you have, and what you really are. This is your essence, your way through life. If you live with this number, having a positive, optimistic attitude towards life, you will successfully achieve your goal.
The number of Fate determines the Runic group. For the convenience of calculations, I advise you to make the following table on a piece of paper:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | |
| 1 att | ||||||||
| 2 att | ||||||||
| 3 att |
We will convert the decimal code to ternary code:
Now we will take the birthday number. It is equal to 3. This number in the ternary code is 3. This indicates 3 att. Next, take the day of the month of birth. It is equal to 4. In the ternary code - 1. This indicates 1 att. And now let's take the number of the year of birth. It is equal to 8. In the ternary code - 2. This indicates 2 att. As a result, we could not unambiguously determine att. Therefore, we take the Essence Number. It is equal to 6. In the ternary system - 3. This indicates 3 att. So we stop at 3 atta. 6 group, 3 att. Runa Inguz. This rune is the Essence Rune in this example.
Rune of Personality:
The digital correspondences of the letters of the First Name, Patronymic and Last Name are added up.
In numerology, this is the Personality Number:
“With the help of the Personality Number, a person perceives the world around him and determines his goals, which he will implement. Usually, goals help to reveal the inner potential of a person and his capabilities. Only in this case inner harmony is possible. To determine the Number of the Personality, it is necessary to add the numerical values of the letters of the First Name, Patronymic and Last Name.

Numeric values of letters |
||||||||
For example: Weidenhamer Viktor Viktorovich.
Weidenhamer: 3 + 1 + 2 + 5 + 6 + 6 + 4 + 1 + 5 + 6 + 9 = 48 (4 + 8) = 12 = 3 (surname number)
Victor: 3 + 1 + 3 + 2 + 7 + 9 = 25 = 7 (name number)
Viktorovich: 3 + 1 + 3 + 2 + 7 + 9 + 7 + 3 + 1 + 7 = 43 = 7 (patronymic number)
3 + 7 + 7 = 17 = 8 (personality number)
This number defines the runic group.
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | |
| 1 att | ||||||||
| 2 att | ||||||||
| 3 att |
Now we will take the number of the surname. It is equal to 3. This number in the ternary code is 3. This indicates 3 att. Next, we take the number of the name. It is equal to 7. In the ternary code - 1. This indicates 1 att. And now let's take the number of patronymic. It is equal to 7. In the ternary code - 1. This indicates 1 att. If we could not unambiguously determine att, then we would use the Personality Number. It is equal to 8. In the ternary system - 2. This would indicate 2 att. But in this example att is defined. It's 1 att and we don't use Personality Number. So, 1 att, 8 group - Rune Vunyo. This rune is the Rune of Personality in this example.
Golden Rune:
Golden Rune matches Golden Alchemical Number. This number is determined by the sum of the Essence Number and the Personality Number. The vibrations of this number allow a person to influence the world and correct his destiny:
"Golden" number(it is called so by analogy with the symbol of alchemical transformation; in addition, it is known as the Real Number, or the Number of Power) is one of the most important numbers in human life. It determines the meaning of our entire existence, shows the motivation of our life incarnation. This number, as it were, reveals the Divine plan, and if you try to live in accordance with it, then life will be filled with meaning, it will become useful and happy. Even if a person does not suspect the existence of a “Golden” (Real) number, it still affects our lives. People often wonder why they make certain choices in life, what makes them act in a certain way. Everyone is familiar with the concept of the so-called inner voice. This voice is the vibration of the "Golden" number. Our goal is to learn to properly define it according to our likes and dislikes. Vibrations of a real number are felt throughout life. If you live in accordance with them, then you simply save your time, there will be no useless days in your life, your time and vitality will not be wasted. The "golden" number is the key that reveals our life purpose. Remember his constant presence, and then you will realize yourself and succeed. The "golden" number is a source of energy of the highest order. Even if at all lower levels (the number of the name, the number of the patronymic, the number of the surname) the energy is destructive, the energy of the planet corresponding to the "Golden" number will be protection and support for us. This is the magical symbol of our life. The karma of a person is connected with it.
This completely coincides with the rules of Runic numerology in the formulas: The first and second runes are active forces. The third rune is the result of the addition (application) of both forces.
In the given example 6 + 8 = 14 = 5. This will be the Golden Alchemical Number. And this will be the runic group for the third rune.
We will convert the decimal code to ternary code according to the table below.
Now we will take the sum of the number of the birthday and the number of the name. In our example: 3 + 7 = 10 = 1. This number in the ternary code is 1. This indicates 1 att. Next, we take the sum of the day of the month and the number of patronymic. In our example: 4 + 7 = 11 = 2. In the ternary code - 2. This indicates 2 att. And now let's take the sum of the number of the year and the number of the surname. In our example: 8 + 3 = 11 = 2. In the ternary code - 2. This indicates 2 att. If we could not unambiguously determine att, then we would use the Golden Alchemical Number. It is equal to 5. In the ternary system - 2. This would indicate 2 att. But in this example att is defined. It is (still) 2 att and we are not using the Golden Alchemical Number. So, 2 att, 5 group. Rune Eyvaz. This rune is the Golden Rune in this example.
So, in this example Individual Runic Code This:
But how to compose an Individual Runic Code if the Essence Rune, the Personality Rune and the Golden Rune belong to the 9th runic group? An individual Runic Code is made up only of runes 1 - 8 runic groups. If any of the above three runes (Essence Rune, Personality Rune and Golden Rune) belongs to the 9th runic group, then an “empty” rune is placed in place of the above rune, then There is rune of Odin.
But something remained in the memory of people. Since ancient times, the futhark was divided into three groups of runes, these groups were called ATTS (“att” is translated as “genus” or “family”). In Iceland, at the end of the first millennium of NE, the three ATTAs of the classical futhark were named according to the rune that started the ATTA. 1 ATT FREYA, 2 ATT HAGALA, 3 ATT TYURA (the younger Scandinavian runes were also divided into three ATTAs, the first of which had six runes, and the second and third had five each).
Each ATT of the classic futhark consists of 8 runes, respectively, three times eight. Thanks to this formula, runic shamans, skalds and erils composed runic spells, they never "mixed the holy with the sinful", and often corrected the mistakes of the profane who tried to master runic magic without an experienced mentor. Here is what the Eril Saga says about this:
Rune must not cut
The one who does not understand them.
In obscure signs
Anyone can fall off.
Ten signs of secret
I have read and know
What are they the reason
Sick of this long one.
(translated by V. Koshkin)
So do not try to experiment and make runic talismans and spells on your own, it is better to refer to the relevant reliable literature.
Classical astrology divides the signs of the zodiac into four elements. Aries, Leo, Sagittarius - FIRE; Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn - EARTH; Gemini, Libra, Aquarius - AIR; Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces - WATER. And again it turns out three groups of zodiac signs. Therefore, the connection of runes with astrology is obvious and the division of the futhark into three ATTAs is very logical. Moreover, the trinity can be traced in philosophy, and in tosophia, and even in our physical world, which is also trinity (meaning our three-dimensional space).
Shamans of different nations (including the Scandinavians) treated earthly existence as a temporary stay in the Middle World. Shamans tried through various practices to penetrate into the Upper world (superconscious world) and into the Lower world of the subconscious. These three worlds can be attributed to the three ATTs: ATT FREYA - the Upper World (the world of gods and celestials), ATT HAGAL - the Middle World (earthly reality) and ATT TYURA - the Lower World (the world of fears and ghosts). There is another concept of futhark perception that can be applied in astrology: the zodiac signs of the first ATTA (Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer) are the signs of birth, youth and growth; the signs of the second ATTA (Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio) represent maturity and maturation; signs of the third ATTA (Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces) - old age, withering and death.
Scandinavian shamans and erilis (rune masters) used ATTAs in the composition of runic spells, which used groups of three runes:
1 - runes of victory (sig runor); 2 - beer runes (ol runor); 3 - magic runes (thurs runor); 4 - midwifery runes (biarg runor); 5 - runes of the surf (brun runor); 6 - targeting runes (lim runor); 7 - runes of speech (mal runor); 8 - runes of thought (hug runor). These eight runic groups represent certain qualities inherent in individuals born at different times of the year, who are connected by certain common goals, aspirations and, oddly enough, professional predispositions.
Let's take a closer look at all 8 runic groups in order to more fully know the impact of generic runes on various individuals.
1 - RUNES OF VICTORY: FEU; HAGAL; TIR - open ATTS. People under the influence of these runes are assertive and purposeful. They have a powerful potential for various undertakings and achievements. They struggle with an unfavorable habitat, strive to achieve their goal by any means. These people are warriors and winners, in their essence. It is no wonder that representatives of the fiery zodiac signs fall under the influence of the runes of victory (the first half of Aries; the first half of Leo; the first half of Sagittarius). Fire is an unpredictable element that devours everything except water.
2 - RUNES OF BEER: UR; NAUD; BYARK - used in spells from harmful spells and physical injuries. To be honest, "beer" does not correspond much to what this runic group really carries. If the runes of victory are purely "male", then the runes of beer are "female" runes. UR is the rune of vitality, NAUD is the rune of obstacles and sacrifices, and BJARK is the rune of motherhood. So people under the influence of beer runes (the second half of Aries; the second half of Leo; the second half of Sagittarius) personify vitality, bearing something new and maternal care.
3 - RUNES OF MAGIC: TOURS; ISS; EOH - associated with sorcery and the kingdom of trolls. People under the influence of these runes (the first half of Taurus; the first half of Virgo; the first half of Capricorn) are excellent materializers of ideas. They have the will, patience and zeal to bring formless ideas to their logical end. At the same time, TURS develops determination, ISS enhances resilience, and EOH activates partner qualities. All people born under the influence of this group of runes are predisposed to magic, philosophy and religious beliefs.
4 - MIDDLE RUNES: ASS; YER; MAN - used in spells to support new beginnings (for example, during the birth of a new person). People who are under the influence of this group of runes (the second half of Taurus; the second half of Virgo; the second half of Capricorn) also support any undertakings and help others both in word and deed. As a rule, they masterfully master any profession, whether it be carpentry or the art of cinema. These people are hard to get along in the role of leader, because. leadership positions and ranks corrupt their lives.
5 - RUNES OF THE SURF: REID; EIVAZ; LAGU - used in shipbuilding. Movement is what unites this group of runes. REID - purposeful movement, EYVAZ - complementary movement (cycle), LAGU - unpredictable turns in moving forward. People under the influence of the surf runes (the first half of Gemini; the first half of Libra; the first half of Aquarius) must be in constant motion, the more they travel and move, the more they get for themselves. They should not relax or stand still, but develop new ways of development.
6 - HEALING RUNES: KEN; PERTH; ING - used by Northern European shamans for healing and cleansing rituals. The dominant rune of this group, KEN, is a sign of fire; the ING rune is graphically similar to two crossed KEN runes. People born under the influence of healing runes (the second half of Gemini; the second half of Libra; the second half of Aquarius) are healers by nature, but if they do not help others, but focus only on their own "I", then ailments immediately come to them and illness. These people should not be selfish, but always listen to the requests of others, help them and correct other people's mistakes. The form of healing can be different: you can take care of a sick person, or you can share your energy, your ideas in order to correct collective shortcomings.
7 - SPEECH RUNES: GIFU; OLGIZ; ODAL - were used in those areas of life where the word is of great importance (for example: oratory, advocacy, etc.). These runes were usually carved on walls or on various objects where important public issues were decided. People born under the influence of this group (the first half of Cancer; the first half of Scorpio; the first half of Pisces) have a natural oratorical gift, you just need to discover it for yourself. These people perfectly realize their potential in acting, political, judicial and legal and social activities. These people make talented artists, clergymen and politicians.
8 - RUNES OF THOUGHT: VINA; SOL; DAGAZ - used in ancient times for mental concentration. This group is associated with mental processes, so that in a negative manifestation, the energy of these runes can manifest itself in the form of insanity. People born under the influence of the runes of speech (the second half of Cancer; the second half of Scorpio; the second half of Pisces), born philosophers and discoverers, they are able to focus their thoughts on some subject and make unexpected discoveries. Since the runes of thought complete the ATT (eight runes), they endow the individual with a fullness of sensations (some receive positive vibrations in the form of success, while others perceive the negative in the form of failures and mental overstrain).
These eight runic groups can say a lot. For example, about the predisposition of the individual to a certain occupation, about the manner of behavior, about the characteristic features, etc.
The runes of victory (FE, HAGAL, TIR) enhance fighting qualities, therefore people born under the influence of this group perfectly realize their potential in political and propaganda activities, they are selfish and purposeful. People who fall under the influence of beer runes (UR, NAUD, BJARK) are passive and changeable in their views, but they are always full of vitality, the best use of their qualities in intermediary activities. Magic runes (TURS, ISS, EOH) push individuals under their influence to search for something unknown, they are natural mystics and utopians, so the best use of their qualities is magic and religion. Midwifery runes (ACC, YER, MAN) enhance abilities in construction, design, they instill a love of nature and agriculture. The surf runes (REID, EIVAZ, LAGU) force individuals to be in constant motion, therefore the professions of such people are very specific: sailors, pilots, drivers, machinists, etc.
For people under the influence of healing runes (KEN, PERT, ING), it is best to connect your life path with the medical or teaching professions. In medicine or pedagogy, they will feel in their place. Although medicine and teaching is not explicit, I would even say mental. That is why people, showing their creative abilities, are teachers and healers for others (remember, for example, the beneficial effect of the lyrics of A.S., Pushkin on the individual subconscious, and Pushkin was born under the KEN rune).
As already mentioned above, the runes of speech (GIFU, OLGIZ, ODAL) are favorable for speakers, politicians, artists and public workers, and the runes of thought (VINYA, SOL, DAGAZ) are good for philosophers and scientists.
