In episode 105 of Gifts of the Wyrd, I welcome back Imelda Almqvist to discuss her latest book, Portals, Patterns, and Pathways: A Handbook for Rune Magicians, Star Gazers and Myth Makers.
We talk about the Uthark system, rune axes, mythology, astrology, and the many ways this book invites you to explore the runes from an entirely different perspective.
This is not another book of rune meanings, it is an invitation to turn the rune wheel dial back a notch and take a step through a portal to a whole new adventure in working with the runes.
Portals, Patterns, and Pathways: A handbook for Rune Magicians, Star Gazers and Myth Makers is published by Collective Ink Books and is available in paperback (via Amazon) and eBook.
You can find Imelda on Facebook and Instagram, but the best place is on Substack where she posts articles on a variety of topics each week.
Listen to other interviews with Imelda: Episode 84 about Yule traditions and Episode 65 discussing her book North Sea Water in My Veins about pre-Christian spirituality of the Netherlands region.
