Problem: Article: Rune stones are usually sold in sets of 24-33 stones that are all the same size and shape. The stones are made of wood or stone and will have symbols printed on them. The stones should also come with a cloth bag that you can use during the reading and to store the stones when you are not using them. Rune stones made of stone may be more expensive than stones made of wood, depending on where you buy them from. The material is more about your own personal preference, as either material will work well for the reading. Some rune sets are made of crystals, such as rose quartz or amethyst. You may choose a crystal set if you are drawn to a certain crystal or you feel a crystal speaks to you. Most rune sets will come with a book of instructions that includes the meaning of the symbols on the stones. You may opt for a set with 24-27 stones to start, especially if you are casting for the first time. You can then add more stones to the set as you do more readings. Get wood pieces that are the same size and shape. You can also use pebbles or small rocks as well as smooth pieces of crystal. Draw the rune symbols on each piece with a marker to make your own set. Making your own rune stones can be a fun project and make you feel more of a connection with the set. You can find a list of the different types of rune symbols on The Rune Site: http://www.therunesite.com/section/rune-meanings/. Make sure the material you use is smooth and soft to the touch, as you do not want to cut yourself during the reading. Pick an area in your home or yard that is quiet and private. An area with lots of light can create a positive, bright spot for the reading. If possible, make sure you are facing north as this will place you in the direction of the gods of Norse mythology, which can strengthen the power of the reading. Some people prefer to do rune readings at night around midnight, as this is known as the witching hour. Pick a time of day that feels comfortable and calming for you so you are in a positive state when you do the reading. This will act as the rune reading sheet, where you will place the rune stones during the reading. Use a cloth that is big enough to hold several rune stones. Make sure the cloth lies flat on the table or the floor. A white cloth will make it easier for you to read the stones and prevent the stones from getting dirty. If you want to make reading runes a habit, you may invest in a rune reading cloth from an occult store or online. You can then only use this cloth for reading the rune stones.

Buy a set of rune stones at a local occult shop or online. Make your own rune stones out of wood, rock, or crystal. Find a quiet, sunny spot that faces north. Place a clean, white cloth on a table or on the floor.
