About this ebook

“Combines spirituality, art, and science . . . an excellent companion for those interested in the healing arts as well as ritual and ceremony.” —Francis Joy, PhD, author of Sámi Shamanism, Cosmology, and Art as Systems of Embedded Knowledge

Renowned author Kristoffer Hughes paints a comprehensive picture of Druidry—where it came from, how it developed into its current form, and why it is relevant today. Hughes shares not only the nuts and bolts of practice, but also its ethics, environmental considerations, and deep roots in history.

Druids are defined by what they do, and this book offers many ways to put Druidic theory into action. Explore what it means to talk with trees, answer the call of wild awakening, honor the ancestors, and work with deities. Use prayer, meditation, and ritual to expand your awareness, develop relationships with the unseen, and engage with elemental powers. Providing powerful Celtic wisdom, this book helps you connect with Awen, the blessed breath of inspiration.

“Packed to the brim with lore and practical tips for exploring and developing your own druid practice . . . Kris’s wealth of personal experience and impeccable research are combined to produce . . . a fantastic and exceptional guide to Druidry for the 21st century.” —Danu Forest, author of Wild Magic

 “The connections Hughes makes with the historical, scientific, and spiritual worlds opens many doors in understanding and leads the spirit to wisdom. The joy with which Kristoffer describes this world is beautiful and his infectious humor and erudite wit shows that this path is both powerful and profound.” —Sian Sibley, author of Unveiling the Green
