OGAM: The Forest Beyond the Trees
OGAM: The Forest Beyond the Trees
A 6-week in depth course on Ogam
With renowned author and Celtic scholar Erynn Rowan Laurie
Join author and poet Erynn Rowan Laurie in a journey through the early Irish ogam. More than just a tree alphabet, ogam is a forest of possibilities for poetry, divination, spiritual work, healing, and magic. Examine historical contexts, origin stories, poetic codes, and modern innovations with the author of Ogam: Weaving Word Wisdom. Taking this course will give you the tools to create your own spiritual and magical philosophy centered in the use of this fascinating system.
Erynn Rowan Laurie has been practicing various forms of polytheistic, animist spirituality since 1984. An author, poet, and professional madwoman, Erynn writes and teaches about the sacred arts of Filidecht, or Gaelic poetic spirituality. Originally from New England, Erynn lived for decades in the US Pacific Northwest and currently resides on the shores of the Adriatic in Trieste, Italy. Erynns books include Ogam: Weaving Word Wisdom and the poetry collection Fireflies at Absolute Zero.
