Our first publication, Druidry: A Practical & Inspirational Guide by Philip Shallcrass (Greywolf), founder of the British Druid Order, is scheduled for publication on January 1st, 2023. This new edition updates the first, which was published in 2000, adding enough new material to more than double its length. The nine chapters offer a unique introduction to the history, theory and practice of modern Druidry, envisioned by the author as a Pagan, shamanistic, animistic path to expanded awareness of the universe and our place within it. The author reminds us of the long history of Druidry as a deeply ecological spiritual path with roots in an ancient, animistic understanding of the world that sees trees, plants, animals, birds, bees, rivers, rocks, mountains, Sun, Moon, earth, sea and sky as imbued with spiritual power and with their own kinds of sentience. Druidry offers ways of relating to them, renewing connections with the world often lost in the rush of modern life, reminding us to take time out from the constant bombardment of multi-media messaging to remember who we really are and what we might become.
Including information on a number of Druid groups and numerous practical exercises, Greywolf introduces us to the paths of bard, ovate and Druid, from the riches of the story-telling tradition to the magic of shape-shifting.
