Are you interested in the Elder Futhark Runes but don't quite know where to start? Maybe you know a bit about their day to day uses but would like to know more about their history? Dive into runes with this Elder Futhark Runes 101 Class taught by McKenzie of WitchRunes. In this class, you will learn the basics of the Elder Futhark runes. Topics that are covered include:
- Rune History - Rune Meanings - Use in Personal Practice Including: Utilizing individual rune energies, Bindrunes, and Divination - Related Symbols
The purpose of this class to give a basic introduction and understanding of the Elder Futhark runes. Runes are ancient and contain a vast amount of knowledge. Having a general understanding of where they come from and what they stand for allows for a deeper connection when utilizing them in your practice.
Upon purchase of this course, you will receive a Word document with links to 5 YouTube videos. These videos can only be viewed by those with a link and cover the topics of: - Introduction and Rune History - Rune Meanings - Use in Personal Practice - Example Rune Reading - Related Symbols The total time needed to watch these videos is approximately 2 hours. Videos should be watched in the listed order.
In addition to receiving a document with the video links, you will also receive a PDF handout of the presentation slides used. These slides use minimal color for easy printing and may serve as a helpful reference.
Why choose this course, and how does it differ from others? For starters, this class differs because it not only includes a written handout, it also includes video explanation. This may be helpful if you are someone who learns better from audio or a visual/audio format. This course may also be helpful if you are someone who learns better by learning in smaller increments. When I teach this class in a group format, it is a straight 2 hours of learning. This pre-recorded format is helpful because you can take it at your own pace.
In addition to the different format, I find that many beginner rune guides do not include the depth of background and usage which I provide in this course. Some may include a brief history and rune descriptions, while others may include rune descriptions and vaguely cover methods for usage in personal practice. This course incorporates all of these aspects to provide you with a well rounded understanding of the Elder Futhark.
Completion of this class is a prerequisite for participation in other Elder Futhark Runes classes by WitchRunes which more deeply cover topics of use in personal practice.
