Runic School

with BRIÖNA JOLIE

Six-week guided runic training to learn and utilize the runes. We will journey through the oldest form of the runes, the Elder Futhark, and their ancient Nordic magick.

When brought into your life, runes can be used as a tool for your spiritual journey.

As you build a relationship with the runes, they will help clarify your path, and strengthen your soul’s magick through their shamanic essence.

The Ancient Runes

Runes, otherwise known as the Elder Futhark, are ancient Nordic symbols that became the origin of the old Norse alphabet and language. Each letter contains a story with magical properties connected to the cosmos of the universe. When spoken aloud the rune emits a certain sound frequency, to transform or amplify certain energy the rune worker intends to work with.

Runes have been used for thousands of years yet are not widely known or understood by many. Their magick is mysterious to the public eye, but special souls are called in to learn and utilize their medicine (you).

In Runic School, you will learn the runes to communicate with the spirit world, to receive guidance on your path, or to work with the symbols for energetic power in your practice.

Learning the runes from a reliable source and origin will place you on the right path to create a solid rune practice. Briöna will pass down masterful teachings from the teachers before her and her relationship to the runes, gods, and goddesses.

  • This training is for you if...

  • You are drawn to the runes and their symbols but have never practiced before and want to learn from a teacher and space which honors the runes magick and origins.

  • You have a bit of practice with the runes but are ready to gain more clarity of their traditional and shamanic meanings. 

  • You wish to learn to read the runes to give yourself or others clarity on their souls path.

  • You would like to utilize the runes to enhance the power of your spiritual practices, ceremonies, and healing work.

  • You may have Scandinavian or German ancestry and want to connect with your ancestors in a meaningful way through the runes.

Utilize the elder futhark

Explore different methods of utilizing the power and frequency of the runes as well as creating bind runes for enhanced everyday magick. Experience the runes, the Gods, and the spirit of northern magick through guided Shamanic Journies led by Briöna.

It all began 5 years ago when I met my husband who introduced me to the runes. Ever since the runes became apart of my world they have enhanced my life. My magick strengthened, my practices felt more powerful, and my connection to my Nordic ancestors began to flourish. The runes then lead me to my shamanic path in 2022, where I then became traditionally trained in the ancient symbols from my rune master and shamanic teacher.

Now I am so honored and ready to pass on their wisdom and magick to you and witness the runes support you along your spiritual path as well.

Important Common Question

Do you need shared ancestry to work with the Norse Gods or Runes?

Norse Gods and Goddesses work with those who are open, ready, curious, and connected in any way to the runes or northern magick.

They do not turn their backs to those simply based on DNA or ancestry. They often meet folks from all backgrounds through symbols, dreams, or a deep inner calling first.

My own runic students who don’t share any Norse ancestry have had PROFOUND experiences with the runes and the Gods, spirits, and magick connected to them. In the beginning, they were surprised by how deeply they connected to them, but over time, it’s become second nature.

This is not a closed shamanic practice, all our welcome.
