Celtic Druidism was one of the most exhalting adventures of the human spirit, but because of the oral nature of Celtic civilization our understanding of the druids-and of the spiritual truths and rituals-remains shrouded in mystery. Yet evidence does exit that gives us a more detailed and factually accurate picture of the Celtic druids and the doctrine that took apprentices twenty years to learn. (Markale, J. 1999. The Druids )

The Celtic tradition is a living, vibrant and practical system for living in todays society rooted in the natural world and in a respect for creation. Understanding the philosophy and practice of this ancient tradition can help every one of us to lead a happier, more fulfilled life. ( Baggott, A. 2000. The Celtic Wheel of Life)
