RE: Nordic Runes 5. #0709
That book is a white-gloves effort. It's been forty years since I was in those archives. Translations might be available for different subject matter or as straight copy, but the chapter I read was full of notes, and it had interesting dialogue of a 'teluric' fluid once used to light up the stones in ceremonies. You might need to apply charm to your nearest Mage of Rosicrucian Golden Dawn mysteries to find out more. All I have here are very short notes. At the time I believe I was following research on the myth/legend of, singing the stones weightless, to move monoliths into place, considering Stones of Stonehenge may very well have travelled from Eire. The mention of 'teluric' fluid is about the ceremonies of quarters of the year.
Best of luck. Keep on keeping on😇

Thanks @simon62!!!
'teluric' fluid , sounds pretty crazy, maybe some kind of fluorescent chemical mix? I will keep on investigating this...
Thanks for all the information!
=)
It used to be easier to access archives, but it can be done. I call it cotton gloves archeology - the research has still to be done on many city, borough and town council archives, in England at least. Here in Australia it can be easier or not depending on focus of local council, but usually here they are glad to accept whatever help they can get.
Interesting... Sounds like an exiting intro to a fantasy book, finding an old undiscovered "magic book" with a treasure-map hidden inside, down in the archives of a library somewhere... =)
That's one way to interest the reverse-logic computer-kids to actually search the grandpa's attic.
A bit like looking back on a long-life and viewing all the sephiroth that one has stopped at and travelled through, again and again. A treasure maze of discerning levels, in which one might find treasures of mind, romance, and other adventures.😇
I remember as a teenager, I used to enjoy looking at micro-film of old news papers in the archive of this library, I remember I was looking back at certain key-points (maybe sephiroth's) in recent history, moments I could still remember from my youth... I never went "deeper down the rabbit-hole" wearing white-glowes and everything! =) But I guess it is never to late... =)
Libraries are in a choice at present. The populace (states/councils etc) are so in love with the digital cloud, that already they cannot see the downside of - for instance - study, where a student in my day might take a library table and have a pile of books on one subject. All open in chapters and page of the one field in that subject, so writing a paper, it is info gathered from several professional writers referencing that particular viewpoint of that professor or graduate student. Digital cloud cannot show so many pages with the ability to flip a page back and forth without the intervening info getting in the way as computer scrolling cannot do. An on-line llibrary like steemit is trash if it cannot be accessed.
Searching archives is very much a treasure hunt. However much hurry the commerce wants to promote computer access able info, I cannot see library archives becoming defunct. When the power is down, and that should be an expectancy for anyone living next door to someone different in a world of terror, then the book comes into its own. The computers are helpful tools, but until such time as their digital cloud is accessible in a language all can understand, it seems there is not enough attention paid to archiving 'how-to' books and other informative instructions. 200+ years in Australia, and the aboriginal dream time stories and cultural lores are still not recorded, and without books, the history leading to today is forgotten as vet's die.
Ah well, one can only keep on keeping on.

So much for stupid steemit, having to go elsewhere to communicate. Bloo-y rubbish!

Should do the trick.
Just upload it there and post the link.
My preference is Calligraphy with a feather-quill, but next time one of the kids is by, I'll try remember. You could just email me.
