Introduction to Druidry
Wednesdays at 7 pm, September 9th – 23rd
Join Jack for a 3-part discussion of modern Druidry—what it is, where it comes from, and what the major groups are. We’ll discuss druidic philosophy, the Druidic Orders, the Bardic magic of inspiration and of story, and the art of cultivating wisdom.
Along the way we’ll touch on the Arthurian tales, the old gods of Britain and Ireland, The Mabon and how to pronounce it, a soup that makes poets, an infamous forger of Welsh poetry, Gerald Gardner’s copy editor, and of course, Stonehenge.
Buckle in, folks, there’s a lot of weird to cover.
