rune stone 2

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.

Awaken to the Runes

An on-line programme connecting you intellectually, intuitively, physically and energetically to the power and wisdom of the runes. Deadline to join is 25th June 2023.

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.

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.

I am absolutely loving every bit of the program, I have to say the power songs are EVERYTHING for me, I am very vocal, I love singing, and mantras, and really help me integrate the rune energy, Thanks so much for all the work and dedication you have put in this program. I am very happy I waited for the RIGHT program for me, and I am happy I didn't hesitated when I found it.

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.

The amount of content that you have developed is astonishing and the structure of the course is fantastic. I'm probably saying this as much as a publisher as a participant. I'm really enjoying it anyway and realise that when I said I was a newbie to the runes, that was an understatement.

The Elder Futhark is the most ancient of the rune alphabets.  It is the magical origins of speech and communication in northern Europe – the key to northern consciousness.  The runes can be used for seership, magic, healing and mysticism.
