How to bind these runes?
To bind protection runes, simply combine multiple runes together, like how we create sigils. You can draw your bindrune on a piece of paper or you can carve them into wood, your call. I usually do it on paper as it’s easier and more practical to use in spells and rituals.
Plus, it’s super easy to carry around as a talisman for on-the-go protection.
