Animist and author, Kelley Harrell, discusses the Season 6 focus on runes as verbs, starting with Fehu. A nuance that gets left out when we approach Fehu as a noun is that it isn’t just about wealth. To maintain or grow wealth requires that we know how to tend it. When we talk about tending, we're talking about interdependence, which makes Fehu a primary lesson in animism.

Whole new season. Whole new series. 

Author and animist, Kelley Harrell, introduces working with the runes in season... as verbs. As animists, it’s not all about the nouns, but also the relationship between them. How we engage nouns, how we continue to find relationship with them and see where we’re personally connected to them--all of which really means, it’s about the verbs.

As we work through The Weekly Rune for this seasonal exploration of Nigel Pennick’s runic calendar, join me on What in the Wyrd to explore the half-month runes as verbs.  In each episode, we’ll talk about how I arrive at the verb or verbs that I do for the half-month, and how we can find relationship with the rune to take action with it in our lives.

Author and animist, Kelley Harrell, discusses half-month Jera and its role following the trauma of the first three Second aett runes. This episode is the full weekly runecast for 12 December 2021, which are Jera, Ehwaz, then Uruz reversed through the voice of Survivor, along with sodalite. This episode offers a primer on how the body keeps the door of trauma, and how, like the Earth-sun relationship in solstices, our bright and shadowed Selves move in a similar elegant yet complex relationship. The body is the key to our awareness of Self as Survivor. It is the door to our soul, and trauma is what guards that door.
