About this title

Synopsis:

This guide to the modern Druid movement features essays from the chief Druids of Britain, France and America, as well as from established writers, mystics, historians, healers and psychologists. The Druid tradition lies at the heart of Western spirituality and today it is experiencing a renaissance unprecedented in its long history. The Druids, like the Native Americans and the Aborigines, revere and respect the earth. They see Nature as their teacher and mother. Druidry today offers a spiritual way that includes an understanding of healing, creativity and the need to place our love of the land at the centre of our lives. Expressing the excitement and breadth of the modern Druid renaissance, this book is a celebration of the flowering of a tradition that is ancient yet ever new.
