Rune meditations can be developed through visualisation of different colours for runes.

The ‘feel’ of the colour of an individual rune may be specific or varied and a rune may have a colour that is its primary or ‘home’ shade. The use of meditating on a rune visualised in a different shade and colour can have a stained glass effect and ‘tint’ the energy or feel of a rune or runes in subtle ways through the different shade, colour, saturation, etc used.

The model of rune colours below is based upon the three-fold division of the Eights. Consequently the colours, including white as a central shade, is personal as colour has different associations to different peoples and cultures. In addition, a colour can also be varied by brightness: light red contrasted with dark red, for example.

Therefore, the visualisation of runes in different colours can be used to develop and enhance meditations to facilitate the growth of energies within runes of life, self and soul.
