DESCRIPTION:
245 Pages
The Druids were the mystics, philosophers, and magicians of the ancient Celtic world. Their spirituality was borne from their near-worship of poetry and music, their warrior prowess, and the world of nature.
The Mysteries of Druidry reveals this mystical romanticism as it was in ancient times, and shows various ways to bring it to life today, in both private and social realms. Thoroughly researched, provocative, and informative, the book carries the reader back to the world of the Druids, not just through Celtic mythology and traditional storytelling, but through the author's own experiences of living and traveling in Ireland and visiting its sacred sites.
The Mysteries of Druidry combines a high-quality "training manual" for modern spiritual Celts and Druids with an original and thought-provoking philosophical account of the spiritual meaning of Druidry. It includes:
* A professionally researched survey of Druidic history, tradition, and customs.
* Detailed descriptions of the mysteries of Celtic spirituality, including the Sacred Truth, the Great Marriage, the Hero's Journey, and the Otherworld.
* Practical guidance for meditation and ceremony, for individuals and for groups.
* The Celtic story of the creation of the world, presented together with a plan for re-enacting the story in ritual.
* The remarkable human side of Druidic spirituality.
"An excellent study of the way in which Druid spirituality can inspire and help us today."
— Philip Carr-Gomm, Chosen Chief of the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids, author of The Druidcraft Tarot, and Druidcraft
"Within an oral tradition such as Druidry, those who write of its teachings tread a fine line, yet in this book Myers succeeds. For with gentle clarity, he writes as if telling stories, not only of myth, folklore and Celtic history, but also of and for our Celtic present. With his words, he inspires, calling the reader to breathe in the songs of the ancestors, and so to sing those songs with both a celebratory pride and a profound relevance for today."
— Emma Restall Orr, Joint Chief of the British Druid Order Author, Principles of Druidry and Druid Priestess
"Cathbad's The Mysteries of Druidry is an excellent account of this often shrouded topic. He brings a deft touch to this highly informative and illuminating book."
— Nicholas R Mann, Author, The Isle of Avalon and Druid Magic
