Burning Runes

"Burning Runes" explores the profound impact of ancient symbols and magical inscriptions on religious beliefs and historical events. It argues these symbols were not merely decorative but active agents shaping human consciousness. The book reveals how these symbols evolved from practical communication tools into sacred elements integral to prophetic traditions and religious doctrines. For example, symbols initially used for simple record-keeping later became central to complex religious rituals. The book progresses by first introducing the key concepts of symbolic language. It then examines case studies like Mesopotamian cuneiform, Egyptian hieroglyphs, and Norse runes, analyzing their origins and religious significance. Finally, it explores their role in shaping historical events and their continued relevance today. This approach offers a unique comparative perspective, contrasting different cultures and time periods to highlight the commonalities and differences in how symbols have been used and interpreted.
