Norse Myths & Runes workshop

Saturday workshop with Andreas Kornevall : 10AM-4PM

"Have you forgotten that the old forest is your home?" - Bo Setterlind

Do you want to deepen your understanding of the magic of old Northern Europe?

This day-long workshop with mythographer and storyteller Andreas Kornevall will immerse you in the world of Norse shamanism. We will explore how the Norse pagans used stories, poetry, visualisation, meditation and music to tap into their intuitive knowledge.

You will learn about the runic tradition, practice runic reading, carve your own runes, engage in ceremony and learn about the lore of our local plants.

This immersive experience will have you stepping in the shoes of your ancestors – learning how they thought about the self, how they tapped in to their inner wisdom, and how they understood the world around them.

Hot soup, hot drinks and cake provided. Please bring additional food to share.

“Andreas Kornevall offers a powerful immersive experience of travelling into Norse mythology and Runic divination, food for both soul and intellect. Understanding Runic script as mythic symbols opens a door into the archetypes that inform all human existence, and Andreas' deep knowledge and love for his subject is truly inspirational.” Professor Angela Voss, Christ Church University
