How to Cast Rune Stones
For the most part, everyone who reads a rune cast may do it differently. What works for one may not work for another. Or one may find it difficult to do an in-depth reading. The following five rune cross reading is a method that is moderately challenging, but gives more accurate and in-depth guidance than a simple "yes" or "no" reading.

The Five Rune Cross Reading
-
1
Lay down your rune cloth on a firm surface with the corners pointing to each direction (north, south, east and west). Cast the runes randomly on your rune cloth. You will want to turn over any that are face up. All your runes should now be face down.
-
2
Gently mix up the runes with your right hand. Visualize feeding your runes your energy. This helps you to be more "in tune" with your reading.
-
-
3
Place your right hand about an inch or two above your runes. Without touching them, slowly sweep your hand over your rune cast. You should feel the runes give off a certain energy. It may feel like a tingling feeling or a hot spot in the palm of your hand.
-
4
If you come across a rune that seems to be giving off more energy than others, pick it up and place it, still upside down, slightly away from the other runes. You still want to keep them on the rune cloth, but you want them far enough away so as not to get mixed up with the others. Your first rune is the rune of past influences.
-
5
Sweep your hand over the runes again and select another rune in the same fashion. Place this beside the first rune. This is the rune of the present.
-
6
Repeat Step 4 again and place this rune next to your second rune. This will be your outcome rune. You should now have three runes in a horizontal line.
-
7
Repeat Step 4 two more times and place the first rune above your middle rune, and the other below your middle rune. The top rune will indicate areas that you may expect to receive help in the situation. The bottom rune is indicative of matters that will either hinder the outcome or situations that can not be changed.
-
8
Turn your runes over as if you were turning the page of a book. The position they are lying in will effect the reading, be they upright or reversed. A reversed position (upside down) usually indicates the opposite of the meaning of an upright rune.
-
9
Now read the runes in the order that they were placed on the cloth.

Tips & Warnings
It is best if you have meditated on the meaning of the runes before attempting to do a rune cast. The more naturally the rune meanings come to you, the more accurate your reading tends to be.
Rune casts are is not the same as fortune telling. The outcome is not written in stone. A rune cast simply helps you concentrate more on areas of your life that you need to focus on. It will also tell you what the outcome will be if you don't make any changes.
The runes are meant to be used as guidance.
Make sure you are reading the runes accurately and "listening" to them. Don't see only what you want to see in the runes.
