Intuitive Rune Reading Class

This course will take place  September 23rd, 2023 at 2200 UTC or 5pm (1700) EST.

This course will feature heavily the modern tradition of research, insight, experiment and synthesis on the topic of runes that we’ve put together over the past few decades as well as my own personal opinions and interpretations. In addition to the literal translation(s) of a rune, each has additional meanings based on its relationship to other runes in a reading, personal experiences of the reader, and the reader’s instinctual interpretation.

The goal of these classes is to familiarize students with this way of processing information from runes, and to help expand each person’s library of meanings for each rune.

NaNa will begin each session with an overview of their “rune story” for each aett.

These stories add momentum, cohesion, and broader themes to the whole runic alphabet. Then, the class will have time to discuss how to tease out additional meanings for the runes and integrate them into readings. The first three classes will each cover one aett of the Elder Futhark, and the fourth class will be for discussion of rune reading techniques and mechanics, with an optional overview of the additional runes from the Younger Futhork. Classes will be via Zoom: 10-11 PM UTC on 2, 9, 16, and 23 September.

Here’s the Zoom info for the first session

About the Facilitator: Nariatious (NaNa)
Lokean, Heathen, Animist
Rune Reader, Seer, Novice Astrologer

Nariatious has been a practicing Heathen for over twelve years. Born in southern California,
astrology, tarot, medicine cards, and numerology were always close by but none of those
systems were a good fit. A year after recognizing that Loki had become a part of their life at
some point, the runes presented themselves and quickly became the most comfortable
divination tool to use. Not only were runes intuitive to learn, but the possibilities for
interpretation were infinite.

Over the last ten years, NaNa’s reading style has solidified and they now use the flexibility of
each rune’s meaning to flesh out answers and build more cohesive interpretations. This unusual
reading style combined with a natural love of teaching meant that a class on Intuitive Rune
Reading was inevitable.
