All translations from Old Norse, Old English, and other old
languages found
in
this book are those of the author. An attempt has
been made to
strike a
balance between poetic and literal translation,
but often favor is given to the literal for the sake of
cor
rect
understanding. In such cases, notes ma
y
be added.

Preface
The present work is actually a second version of a manuscript
originally written in the
Armanen-system,
which was completed in
1976
C.E
.
Soon thereafter, I discovered the deeper, long hidden
power of the Elder Runic Tradition-which is transpersonal and
fundamentally independent of the misinterpretations and manipula­
tions of uninformed individuals. This m
isinformation
has unfor­
tunately been the hallmark of almost all books on operant runelogy
which have appeared in recent years
.
In
1979
CE., the revised
manuscript of
Futhark
was complete
.
However; it has taken four years
for
it
to find a publisher with the ability to bring it before a
readership. During the intervening years, I have continued my
invest
igations into the runes on all levels, and some of my ideas have
evolved-based upon exoteric as well as esoteric work. Almost no
changes have been made in the
1979
version, however, since it was,
and is, fundamentally sound due to its foundation in the eternal
traditional
futhark-system. It is hoped that these more developed ideas
will also be able to find a larger audience, and it is to that end that the
Institute for Runic Studies, Asatru, and the Rune-Gild were founded
in
1980
C.E. As it stands,
Futhark
remains the first step in learning the
"ABC's"
of the esoteric wisdom of our Germanic heritage.
