Relationship Layout #2

 

 

Difficulty: Easy

This relationship layout focuses more on the common ground of the relationship, with three runes in the middle column showing the common ground. The middle column essentially displays the past, present, and future of the relationship.

Rune #4 stands for the common base of the relationship, which may be thought of as the past events which have shaped their characters, bringing them together. The current connection that binds them together is Rune #3, indicating the values shared. Rune #7 implies the common goals that would keep the pair together moving into the future.

The columns on either side show what each partner brings to the table. Remember, relationships need not be romantic, and the partners could even be groups rather than individuals. In this layout, the other person is on the left-hand side and the reader on the right.

Runes #1 & #2 indicate the separate personalities of each member of the relationship. These runes form a sort of bridge with the runes beneath them, #5 & #6, which show the qualities that each partner offers the other person, and thus to the relationship as a whole.
