The Witches' Runes

Master this Historic and Powerful Divinatory System
Step-By-Step, Rune by Rune

First presented by famed occultist Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki, the Witches' Runes, aka Stones O'Leary, are a set of ten marked stones that have traveled the world by way of occult teachers and students. Now, for the first time ever, this obscure system of divination is presented in its original form for a general audience.

Josephine Winter and Jason Tremain present each rune in its own in-depth chapter along with meditations and journal prompts. Josephine and Jason encourage you to explore each rune’s traditional meaning and how it connects with you on a personal level. You will also learn how to create your own Witches' Runes and interpret the symbol combinations. Much simpler than tarot or the Elder Futhark runes, anyone can pick up this system and find that the future is just a stone's throw away.

"A wonderful book that opens the door to a mysterious, almost forgotten system, which has lasted through the ages and deserves to be better known."
—Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki, author of Highways of the Mind, The Sacred Cord Meditations, and others

"The Witches' Runes teaches a versatile and deceptively simple divination system. Readers will find practical, down-to-earth answers to their questions in these pages, as Tremain and Winter present a modern take on a form of divination uniquely suited to a witch's needs."
—Jack Chanek, author of Tarot for the Magically Inclined

"The Witches' Runes is an accessible, practical, working guide for learning a unique system of divination. Tremain and Winter lay out history, folklore, myth, and magic to help the would-be Witches' Runes diviner become intimate with these special stones. This unique and elegant system is given a home in these pages and many will find sustenance and inspiration here. A magical guide to mysterious symbols that will offer clarity, power, and meaning."
—Fio Gede Parma, author of Ecstatic Witchcraft and The Witch Belongs to the World

"The Witches' Runes by Jason Tremain and Josephine Winter is nothing short of a triumph! This is an authentic and inspiring work dedicated to a rare and powerful divination system rooted in the lore and praxis of magic and Witchcraft. Within these pages, the authors uncover a seldom-seen method of magical meaning-making! Not only rare but one that honors and expands upon the work of luminaries such as Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki, Gardnerian High Priestess Patricia Crowther, and Australian Craft pioneer Simon Goodman. I found this book to be much more than a manual. This book is a living, breathing invitation into the ongoing practice of uncovering the mystery of the Witches' Runes. Tremain and Winter guide the reader through every facet of the stones from creation to maintenance and symbolism...Their words don't just inform; they activate the unseen, carrying forward sacred threads of witch-lore into their own practice. An indispensable, spirited, and wholly magical resource!"
