An ancient path calls me body and soul. Whisper of my land, song of my ancestors. Etched in stone, carved in root and branch, preserved in ice and evolving in fire. It is held in the runes, calling me home, drawing me on, whispering of a power I will soon know in my bones.
Connect with the runes through ancient sources, story, song and energy channelling. Build your understanding and skill in their uses for seership, healing, magic and personal transformation.
Awaken to the Runes is an experiential journey into the mysteries of the Elder Futhark (the most ancient rune ‘alphabet’). Journey through the course of a full year, meet each rune in the Elder Futhark and work with ancient and modern rune practices. Awaken is delievered on line and includes self-study content and in-person monthly circles.
Awaken to the Runes
An on-line programme connecting you intellectually, intuitively, physically and energetically to the power and wisdom of the runes. 27th June 2022 – 28th June 2023
CLOSED FOR ENTRY
For those who feel the calling of the lands, myths and magics of nothern Europe (whether through ancestry, heritage or interest) in-depth teachings about the chakras, reiki or the Zodiac are frustratingly easier to find than than teachings abotu the runes, seidr, galdr and the mysteries of Yggdrasil. Awaken was created in response to this absence of support for those called to the spiritual pathways of the north. It is an immersive year of group circles and multi-media modules bringing you the runes as they would have been taught: orally, person-to-person and through multiple means of connection. The programme supports you not just in deeply knowing your runes but in actively working with them on a daily basis.
Runes are ancient keys to inner and outer transformation. The foundation stones of the spiritual heritage of northern Europe and well springs of wisdom and magic. So many of us crave authentic and powerful spiritual connection to our Earth, our ancestors and ourselves. To this day the runes remain embedded in the Germanic languages (inc. English, German, Dutch, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Icelandic). It is in our gift to reclaim them for a modern age where spiritual wisdom and soulful purpose have never been more relevant to our ability to survive and thrive.
~ Maggie Rose Cunningham, Founder of Magin Rose and creatrix of Awaken
Maggie’s knowledge is deep and well-researched. She is an expert on so many subjects and she manages to expertly bring everything together in a clear and compelling way. My personal favorite is the story telling. ... It is years since I listened to stories and I have realized what an amazing and ancient tradition it is. It has been such an honour to take part in this course and I am so glad that I still have months left of learning and growing within this marvellous group.

TESTIMONIALS
Your teaching style was excellent. You allow for enough time for people to go off on tangents, but you keep it to time and hold the space really well. Your calm and gentle delivery coupled with your obvious authority in the subject matter works particularly well as a teaching style and I also appreciated the humour and (slight) irreverence you bring as well! ~ Emily Ounstead, UK
You have a deceptive ease which gives a sense of your experience and I was able to trust you quickly. I found you provided a warm and holding space that gave me nurturing and rest. This brought it’s own depth which allowed two important new images to emerge, which I am still working with and gaining benefit from ~ Tim Frost, UK
I would advise anyone to work with her who is stuck in a rut whether physically, emotionally or spiritually and needs a helping hand to get back on their feet again. I have worked with many therapists in the past and Maggie is truly amazing – a leader in her field, and I cannot thank her enough for all she has given me. ~ Sorrell Robbins, UK

Maggie talks about the programme
Many years ago I put out a wish that I wanted to study the runes in such a way to really know them, not just intellectually, but in my bones. This course is making that wish a reality that grows more vivid with each module. I highly recommend this rune journey.
