This workshop offers a female-centered approach to learning about the Elder Futhark runes. The Old European root words from which the word “rune” originates mean “mystery” or, “to whisper.” It has been suggested by many runic scholars that the written form of runes originate in the dendritic patterns found in our own bodies and throughout Nature, from the structure of a tree trunk and its branches to our own circulatory system. The shape, form, and energetic pattern emanated by each rune is rooted in the mysteries of nature from which this ancient alphabet was derived. Participants in this pre-conference class will learn the basic meanings of the 24 runes, how to pronounce, write them, and use them in some basic, magical, and practical ways.
