But I still might give it a shot tho, I think i can control my body somewhat while in a trance so, i should be able to probably vibrate the runes, i'm still trying to master the trance state
When I was a beginner, I jumped into vibrating massive amounts of runes. Although this was not ideal, and I had to work on my focus and trance, mastering those is not required to get effects from your runes or other energy.
In other words, I would simply view it as part of your spiritual practice, which you improve alongside your other skills. There are cases where using runes, especially on good dates, would be very beneficial for someone, even if they are not fully competent just yet.
In regards to depression, for example, this June 21st (Summer Solstice) is a great opportunity for working with Saulo. Another example of where runes (or mantras as a whole) may be useful is with your AOP, or with deep cleaning. For me, it felt easier to chant large amounts of energy, as opposed to inhaling an equivalent amount, which allowed me to put lots of energy into those activities.
For a trance, you do not always need a trance just for vibrating the runes, although proper focus is more necessary here. You should still feel the energy regardless of a trance. Yet, when it comes time to program and direct the energy, this is when you want a trance. Furthermore, don't forget to spend 1 or 2 minutes feeling and further visualizing the energy after you program it with the affirmation.
If you do the above, you should not have any problems with runes.
Lastly, the exact cause of your depression will be seen in your astrology chart. For example, Neptune can bring general sorrow, Saturn can bring poor self-esteem or feelings of unworthiness, and a weak or debilitated Sun or Mars will recent in overall low fire in your soul. Fixing these usually requires a combination of freeing workings, planetary squares, as well as other 40 or 80 day workings.
