About this app

Learn Elder Futhark runes, Norse mythology, and mystery of Norse paganism. Explore sigils of the Vikings and the pagan era, study rune meanings, and design your own amulets and talismans.

Runic Formulas is designed to help beginners learn Norse pagan traditions. It is trying to open a door for understanding people of those times, when magic, witches and witchcraft was a part of life. Vikings carved runes and sigils on their ships and drew them on their bodies. They believed that this would protect them from the storm at sea or the enemy's ax on the ground.

Elder Futhark Explained: Learn rune meanings based on experience and knowledge. Build your own knowledge with Runic Journey, a tool designed for one-by-one rune learning. Write your experience and findings in personal Runic Notes.

Explore Norse Gods: Read about Odin, Thor, Freyja, and many other deities in the Book of Norse Gods, written for you based on the Eddas and Sagas.

Create Bindrunes, Sigils and Formulas: Design your own bindrunes with the built-in designer. Combine symbols into unique formulas that reflect your goals or ideas. Save your creations, share them, and revisit them later in your personal library.

Birth Rune & Personal Formula: Find the rune that is connected to your birth day. Use it as a point of reflection or as inspiration for building a unique amulet. Learn your personal formula that helps in self-reflection and improvement.

Read Elder Wisdom: Explore Havamal with a detailed explanation for each stanza. Find what wisdom is hidden behind famous old Norse texts.

Runic Formulas has a lot of tools to make your volva path easier: Runic Translator to write words in runes and share with friends. A moon calendar with detailed moon phases and their influence. And a handcrafted book of old Norse and Icelandic sigils - The Galdrabok.

Learn runes, an ancient alphabet from the Norse era. They carry centuries of Norse heritage, mythology, and cultural meaning. With Runic Formulas, you can learn, practice, and find inspiration in old traditions - no matter if you are heathen, asatru or any other beliefs.

This is a great tool for me (paid version). It really focuses on learning and understanding the runes and related content (rather than fluff entertainment.) It's written in plain, modern language, but also integrates tradition poems and writings. The daily rune challenge has really helped me learn each character. As a beginner, this app has been invaluable! It does go into more advanced topics, like spell writing, but I'm not there yet.

I can't say enough positive things about this app. I love it. So amazing that this is even out there. I would say The only downside to this app is that it's not compatible with my credit/debit cards so I can't even buy the full version. On one card my bank declines this merchant and on my other card this merchant declines my card🙄😤🥴 so I have to stick with the free option or else I would buy the full version lol. Besides that it's really great!!

Just getting started into learning about runes and for me this is the perfect app to help me practice on the go. I can read up on runes anywhere, anytime. Pull a few if needed in designed spreads, or even freestyle mode is fun to play with. So far all the information seems to match up pretty well with what I've learned too, so I'm excited to expand and learn more.
