Some sources say to place a cloth on the area which you intend for your reading. Then concentrate on your question. Let your runes tumble slowly out of the bag or pouch. As they hit the table say "Urdhr, Verthandi, Skuld". These are the names of the Norns.
After this you should make sure that all runes are face down. Then with your right hand stir the runes deosil. Others say it is okay to pick the runes out of the bag and lay them down as you pull them. Either way will work. It is your choice.
