This Page tells you about our Runes Course:

See here the details for our 24-rune Futhark alphabet Course, including Rune Stance and Galdr/Rune Chant, for full embodiment of each Rune and finding your true Voice:


How the Rune Course Works:

For each rune you receive two audios: The first audio is a presentation, and then the second audio is a vision journey audio to understand the deep meaning of that Rune, and to understand, also, how you stand in relation to the life area covered by that Rune.
There are many supporting documents as well. This is a correspondence course. We correspond in detail.

Michael Conneely. has taught the Rune Path Course for twenty-four years and offers himself as a most dedicated, caring and supportive teacher. He lives with his wife Maggie Pashley in a healing network in the far West of Ireland on the Sligo Atlantic Coast, close to the most ancient Sacred sites in Ireland. He is the author of six visionary books, and I has an Oxford University MA.

Picture
Michael studied Old Norse and the Norse Sagas at Oxford, where one of his tutors was Christopher Tolkien, the son of JRR Tolkien. 

Picture
Michael completed a five-year ethnographic Field Study: this was a university-based social-anthropological study: an Ethnography of spiritual forms new to the modern west. The method of this huge study was to live in the institutions under study. The spiritual pathways Michael's study focused on were the areas of Hinduism, Buddhism Tibetan and Theravada), paganism, shamanism and Utopian Community - mainly based at Glastonbury. 

Picture
Ancient alphabets and Gods and Goddesses are Michael's heritage. His family on my mother's side come from Co Galway, including the ancient DNA of the West of Ireland stretching back to the Neolithic. Michael's family on his father's side include shamanic Yakut tribesmen from the Barents and Baltic seas.

Michael also teaches The Ogham, the Tree Alphabet of the ancient Irish Druids, which has a totally different energy from the Runes, and its connection to Otherworlds. See my Ogham Course Details.

Lia Cruse

Picture
Lia Cruse is originally from a small coastal town in Florida, and relocated to Southern California 2 years ago. Lia was taught shamanic practices starting approximately age 5 until she was 15 by her grandfather, an Indigenous American Medicine Man, who later became a Chief of a small tribe in the North-Western Panhandle of Florida, USA. 
 
Some years after his passing, Lia met a Reiki Master and Shamanic Healer, who taught her Usui Reiki, achieving her Master’s Attunements in 2011. During this time, Lia also came to learn and develop several intuitive abilities and how to utilize these in healing.

Picture
Lia then came to learn under an Armanen Rune Master, from whom she learned the healing and magical nature of the Armanen Runes. With him Lia developed occult magick practices, shadow work, soul or astral travel, and the basis of her Norse studies and was initiated as a Rune Master and Shamanic Healer. 
 
After her initiation, Lia became very drawn to the runes of many systems and began collecting, studying and working with as many runic systems as I could find. Straying away from current most commonly known, and seeking out systems that are all but lost to the modern world. Working with them on an intuitive level, to uncover as much of their lost wisdom and magick as possible. This is a constant passion and study that is still part of Lia's life to this day. 
 
Lia's college course was the study Cultural Anthropology with Religious Anthropology and Shamanistic Anthropology the primary focus of study. 

Picture
Lia then began working with Rune-path and feels that she has found that there are no words for how this path will grow you on a soul level.

The growth echoes into your life in ways that are positively unimaginable.

Taking a shamanic path to know and live the purpose of your soul is an experience that is incredible, indescribable, revolutionary, healing, and a magic unlike any other.

​Lia feels deeply honored to work in these areas and it is my greatest hope that I bring to our students the greatest support and all of the magical, life changing, healing and learning experience possible.

READ MY VISIONARY NOVEL RUNE MAGIC
Available worldwide on Amazon as paperback or kindle. 
Reviews for Rune Magic - A visionary Novel by Michael Conneely
‘Got a Kindle for Yule. Ordered first book on Kindle - Rune Magic! Am LOVING it!! What I like about your book is that it is teaching through the art of storytelling. The story draws you in, and you also absorb the lessons. I'm a writer too, and I'm already learning from you!’
Susa Black

‘I have read this book too and found the details so well described, it was like seeing a movie in my mind but more!’
Leslie Anne Raven
USA


I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Michael Conneely shows a deep and clear understanding of the underlying mythology, yet his narrative flows easily and convincingly. He handles dialogue well and his descriptions are quite vivid. My own knowledge of the Norse legends was superficial. Conneely incorporates an excellent overview into his story and uses the legends to neatly illustrate the path of humanity.

The Runes are divided into three AEtts, or three groups of eight, each of which declares about a different realm of human existence and consciousness:
The first Aett, Freya’s Aett is all about what it is to be a successful human being.
The second Aett is of Heimdall the Guardian of Bifrost, the Rainbow Bridge, and it is all about seeing circumstances rightly, especially adverse circumstance, so as to begin to share divine awareness and start to become the Spiritual Warrior.
​The third Aett, is the Aett of Tir the War God, and is all about what it is to see the things of the world with Divine Consciousness, and Co-create to share the divine task of bringing forward your own personal evolution, the evolution of our planet. ​​
