He explains The ancient history and inspiring beliefs of the ancient Druids; Druidic wild wisdom and their tree-, animal- and herb-lore; The mysteries of the Druids' seasonal celebrations; The Druids' use of magic and how their spirituality relates to paths such as Wicca; This guide will show how the wild wisdom of the Druids can help us to connect with our spirituality, our innate creativity, the natural world and our sense of ancestry. The life-enhancing beliefs and practices of this spiritual path have much to offer our 21st-century world.
