I'm teaching "Queering the Runes" online through the Fellowship of Fire and Ice! And tomorrow (October 18th) is the registration deadline!

Details:

Monday, October 21st at 6pm PST // 8pm CST

The sliding scale for workshops runs from $15 to $50 based on what you can best afford.

The Fellowship of Fire and Ice is a radically inclusive heathen organization that strives to provide safe spaces to learn heathenry. I am so happy to be teaching with them and honored to be among such esteemed teachers!

Workshop description:

The Elder Futhark create a beautiful system of divination, though finding good information about them can be difficult - especially for queer, progressive, modern heathens and witches. Norse mythology includes an incredible diversity of gender and sexual expression, but this has been largely excluded from books published on contemporary heathenry or runic divination. Even worse, the runes have been wrongfully co-opted by white supremacists and heathens have to actively fight against this stereotype of the rune reader. In recent years, rune readers have been reclaiming the feminine side of the runes, bringing nuance to the craft. In this talk, Siri will explore the queer qualities of the runes through understanding pre-Christian Nordic gender concepts, translating that through a simulation and simulacra, and carving from this root culture a modern future-facing divination system.

Troll Brev. The Portal to Queering the Runes is Re-Opening Hello everyone - I hope you're all doing ok, that you have what you need in this moment.
