Hi Rowan I'm still doing the stances daily. I really enjoy them. As for getting the galdr mixed up I've done that too on different runes. I don't know why it...
Some people read Runes rightside up and in reverse... What if when you pull a Rune and it is sideways?? How would you determine which way to read it? Cindy~...
