So you want to become a Rune Healer? Here’s how to start
If you’re reading this, you’ve already decided that rune healing is your path and are looking for guidance on where to begin. If you’re still unsure, I recommend visiting my page on becoming a Northern Tradition healer first, then coming back when you’re ready to take the next step.
Ready to begin? Here's your path
Healing for Yourself
Runes work with mind, body, and spirit. They are energies, symbols, and sounds with deep wisdom, energetic landscapes, elemental forces, and spirit guides attached to them. To wield them effectively, you must first know them intimately—which is why my foundational programme is designed to span a full year.
Awaken to the Runes
Join the Programme
In this programme, you will connect deeply with each of the Elder Futhark runes through six core elements, including story, song, and meditation. The course includes modules on self-healing and healing for others, along with nine additional comprehensive training modules covering various healing techniques:
Voice
Body
Colours & Elements
Crystals, Minerals & Earthlore
Animals
Soul Lore
Plants, Herbs & Oils
Working with Guides
Bind Runes in Sound
Awaken includes 4 certification routes including my Level 1 Path of the Healer Certification,
Awaken to the Runes
Healing for Others
Once you complete the Awaken programme, you become eligible for my two-stage training in offering rune healing to others.
Step 1: Healing for Others LIVE
Join two half-day immersion trainings (via Zoom) on distance healing and working in partnership with your runes and clients. This training runs twice a year. If you are near the end of your foundational programme, you may take this course in the Spring or wait until after graduation.
Healing for Others LIVE is also a key component of my shamanic programme, Yggdrasil’s Path and can also be taken independently for those who simply want to experience the power of giving and receiving rune healing in a communal setting.
Step 2: Healing for Others Certification
The certification process includes:
10 self-paced modules guiding you in setting up your healing practice (from energetics to Zoom logistics, client feedback, and contracts).
Submission and assessment of your core session plan.
Completion of three case studies based on the techniques learned in Healing for Others LIVE and self-paced training.
Students have three months after completing Healing for Others LIVE to submit their assessments and finalize their certification.
Licensed rune healer
I bring 25 years of experience in higher education, specializing in quality assurance, ethics, and student support. I take my responsibility as a trainer seriously, ensuring my rune healers receive the highest level of guidance and credibility.
All certified rune healers can become licensed through Magin Rose by joining my Mastery Programme for Awaken graduates. This membership includes:
Monthly circles, co-working days, and a peer support forum.
An ever-growing hub of resources.
Exclusive benefits for licensed rune healers:
Invitations to four healing shares per year to refine your practice.
Access to a resource bank for use with your clients.
Listing on the Magin Rose website as a licensed practitioner.
A strong peer community is essential for healers. After all, who heals the healer? Who supports them, helps them grow, and walks with them when their calling feels particularly challenging?
Questions?
If you’re interested but would like a taster before committing, I invite you to sign up for my next Healing with the Runes masterclass.
And remember, I am not the only rune healer out there. Take the time to explore your options. Ask yourself:
What do I truly want from a trainer?
How do I want to feel during my learning journey?
What kind of support is essential for me?
How do I learn best?
Be selective—your future clients will thank you for it.
