I *love* runes. One of my more treasured possessions is a set of runes my Mom and I made together when she was in a ceramics class. (And she's not even pagan; she's just a cool Mom)
I wouldn't say they're more *or* less powerful than tarot (either/or comparisons are such a limitation, after all) -- they're just different. The runes are simpler, more to the point, which works better with some questions and not as good with others.
I'm glad to hear you're enjoying yours!

I think it depends on personal preference. I like my runes and I seem to get a single "clear" message/thought from them. I like my cards too, in the fact that they usually give me more of a story/possibilities than the runes do.
I guess it depends on what kind of information I'm looking for.

Nothing is comparible to the Book of Taro... perhaps using the Taro combined with the Qabala (as is intended) yo may have better results.
Study the history of Futharkian Runes and get a good grasp of them... they are equally useful, not better... nor lesser.
Symbolic divination is wide spectrum.

runes are very old way to divine, i prefer tarot myself, but i am also anagogic. I occasionally use the I Ching sometimes too. Not everyone can use the same thing, you have to find what's right for you

The tarot is far more revealing, has a much deeper intuitive connection to us, and a stronger connection to traditional Magickal workings. It is superior in every way to casting stones or runes. But whatever works for you, I guess!

I think that each witch has something that is powerful to them that may not be as powerful to another! You follow your own path! What works for you may not work for another at all! There are may types of Wicca and forms of Magick! Check out blessingscornucopia.com and open-sesame.com and see me on lunarfox.mysticblogs.com too! Blessed Be!

I feel that both are equally powerful tools, but the for the most part I think it's the practitioner's ability and experience with a specific tool that determines what outcome they receive. I guess it just depends on what you've worked with in the past and are most comfortable with. =)

Tarot has deeper symbology and is there for easier for me to interpret....But they are both very powerful divinational tools. it is really just a matter of what "speaks" to your subconscious mind better. The imagery of the tarot is what makes it more effective for me.
