How to Make Rune Dice

The ancient runes are still in use for divination today. Although these runes were lost in time, the Elder Futhark, a collection of old Germanic runes, they were translated within the last couple of centuries and brought back to public knowledge. While most people divine with the use of runes carved on flat or slightly rounded stones, rune dice can provide a new variation on the theme, and are easy to read.
