The Mysteries of Druidry | Free Book
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. It includes:A professionally researched survey of Druidic history, tradition, and customsDetailed descriptions of the mysteries of Celtic spirituality, including the Sacred Truth, the Great Marriage, the Hero’s Journey, and the OtherworldPractical guidance for meditation and ceremony, for individuals and for groupsThe Celtic story of the creation of the world, presented together with a plan for re-enacting the story in ritual
“An exemplary look at one man’s approach to Druidism, with excellent food for thought and suggestions for group ritual and personal practice . . . His personal stories of working with and discovering the spirits of the land are inspiring and useful guides to the readers.” —Erynn Laurie, author of A Circle of Stones, cofounder of the Inis Glas Hedge School
“With gentle clarity, [Myers] writes 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 of Kissing the Hag
In The Press
"An excellent study of the way in which Druid spirituality can inspire
and help us today."
"Despite the flurry of books on Celtic
spirituality in recent years, very little has seen print that combines
a solid foundation in Celtic tradition and scholarship with practical
guidance for those who hope to follow a living Celtic spiritual path
in today's world. Brendan Cathbad Myers' The Mysteries of Druidry
fills that void admirably, with a clear, accessible, and forthright
exploration of Celtic tradition as the foundation of a personal path
of mystical transformation that's profoundly relevant to the problems
and possibilities of the modern world. This is a book I would be
delighted to recommend to my students, to members of my Druid order,
and to anyone interested in Celtic spirituality as a living path for
today."
"Few books on Druidry successfully blend the
intellectual, the emotional, and the spiritual aspects to create a
truly representative work on Celtic mysteries. The Mysteries of
Druidry is one of these books. It is clearly written by someone who
has practical experience in Druidry, making it one of the most
enjoyable, inspirational, informative, and beautiful books on the
subject."
