Entering the Mystery of the Runes at Glastonbury Tor

Runes are one of the many ways humans first learned to write down or record their experiences, and have their own kind of magic as a result.

Mysterious, Meaningful, and Surprisingly Personal Visit at Glastonbury Tor

Connecting with Runes – a surprising result of a visit to Glastonbury in the UK.  (I’m in the photo to the left, wearing the flowery top!).

On a recent visit to my homeland, a close friend and I went on a tour.  We toured what I like to call power spots.  We visited Stonehenge, Avebury, and Glastonbury.

Jeremy White’s Wizarding tour

With only a short window in Glastonbury, we decided to book a tour with someone who truly knows the land. We were fortunate to meet Jeremy White, a practicing British shaman who regularly leads tours of the area.

And, as it turned out, the synchronicities had already begun.

Synchronicities on the Road

The day before, while driving toward Stonehenge, my friend and I were chatting non-stop since we hadn’t seen each other for years.

I began talking about synchronicities, the number 11:11, and the energy of the sacred sites we were visiting. Moments later, as if on cue, 11:11 appeared on our GPS. When parking, the attendant directed us to – you guessed it – Row 11.

We laughed, sensing that something more was at play.

That afternoon, after walking around the Avebury stone circle, we stopped at a local alternative shop. My friend wandered over to a large bowl filled with Runes and decided to follow the printed instructions:

“Place your hand in, pick up a handful of runes, then let all but one fall away. The one remaining is your Rune for the day.”

Naturally, I had to try as well.

Next to the bowl were two books titled Raising the Runes: A Shamanic Journey through Avalon.
The author’s name caught my attention — Jeremy White. Could it be the same Jeremy we were about to meet in Glastonbury?

Sure enough, it was.

We laughed again, marveling at the synchronicity. I joked, “We should buy the books and have him sign them tomorrow.”

Then we opened them and discovered they were already signed. Of course, we bought them immediately.

A Different View of Glastonbury

Meeting Jeremy the next day, we took a rainy tour of both the feminine and masculine power spots in Glastonbury.  By the Holy Thorn, Jeremy helped us with a traditional shamanic ceremony, where a little mead was involved.

Immediately, I felt a shift to another dimension of awareness walking with Jeremy (and it wasn’t just the mead!).  I began to feel the energy of this power spot more and more strongly.

By the time we reached the foot of Glastonbury Tor, the energy there was palpable.   I strongly felt the influence of other dimensions and other levels of consciousness.

When Jeremy mentioned Freya, the Norse goddess, I suddenly saw a three-dimensional image of her rising through him. For a moment, I could see both Jeremy and Freya at once. This was a powerful vision that confirmed I was standing in a place of extraordinary energy.

Shamanic work with the Runes

Jeremy explained that his main practice centers on the Norse Runes, connecting with them as living symbols of wisdom and guidance. Those who resonate with this work, he said, will naturally receive the meanings they most need.

Before climbing the Tor, we joined him in a short shamanic journey. Afterward, we each drew a Rune and shared what we discovered.

The experience left me feeling deeply grounded, yet expanded, with a strong sense of presence and connection to the beauty and mystery of this ancient land.

What Are Runes?

The Nordic Runes originated from the ancient Germanic alphabet, a language of both sound and symbol. In early times, the ability to inscribe a word or idea was considered profoundly magical.

Even today, I think writing our thoughts into form still holds a kind of magic.

Certain Runes were believed to carry special power — especially those connected to gods such as Odin, or to revered elements of nature like the birch tree. Over time, the symbols were carved onto stones or bones and used as tools for divination, healing, and insight.
