If you're interested in making a casting cloth this is what I did.

It is square 24" by 24" and brown. I used felt because there are no threads that'll unravel and I'm not a sewer. The cloth can be any cloth but not leather as it's symbolism is different and has a different energy to it. I believe symbols have their own unique energy. There is quite a bit of different energies involved which I'll get into later. The cloth must be brown as other colours have different meanings. Brown is typically a grounding colour and we want the reading of the rune stones to be grounded in our reality.

But for now. The square and the colour brown symbolize earth. The smallest circle is past/ring of potential. The middle circle is present/ring of causation and the largest circle is future/ring of manifestation.

The empty space on the very bottom of the image is south, closest to the reader, and is the place of giving. Moving clockwise, the left space is the place of holding/west, the top space is the place of receiving/north and the space on the right is the place of decisions/east.

I'm beginning the workshop by taking the runes one at a time to get familiar with them. You don't need a rune set for this, just paper and a pen to start with.

You can make a casting cloth anytime.

If anyone is good with numerology, I'd like to know the meaning of 24 as the cloth is 24 by 24.

Have fun making the cloth.
