One of the main questions I get asked is about Elder Futhark Runes and how to do transcriptions 🙂

I have an awesome resource here on how to read and write in Runes, from the perspective and language of an American or native English speaker. It’s different for Europeans as their alphabets are essentially phonetically identical (for the most part). The American English alphabet is completely different and it takes a very creative approach to accurately phonetically transcribe.

Due to the time it takes me, and the demand, I simply am not able to offer Runic transcriptions anymore, which is why I have this resource available here for you to learn to do it yourself. I’d love to be able to continue offering this, but it is much better to teach one to fish, rather than offering the fish, am I right?

My husband Kevin, spends most of his time working as a research assistant of anthropology, with an emphasis on bear ceremonialism (bear cults) of the northern hemisphere. He has written a plethora of information made available here, and there are the things which inspire The Wicked Griffin the most <3
