Druidry: Rekindling the Sacred Fires introduces Druidry as a spiritual path, especially as it is taught and practiced in the British Druid Order (BDO), one of the largest and most influential Druid Orders in the world with, despite its name, an international membership. The book covers a host of topics, from the nature of Awen, the holy spirit of Druidry, to the interface between Anglo-Saxon shamanism and Druidry known as Wyrd Druidry via the roots of modern Druidry, the meaning and use of altars, the festivals of the Wheel of the Year, robe-making, the Druid community, Druid camps, the Ogham alphabet and much, much more. It ends with a very useful guide to further reading and other Druid and Pagan groups. Over 100 well-chosen illustrations help bring the tradition vividly to life.Contributors are Badb, an ancient Irish Crow goddess; Brian Bates, author of The Way of Wyrd, The Wisdom of Wyrd, The Real Middle Earth, etc.; Sandy Buckle, BDO Groves Administrator; Amanda Hart, BDO co-chief, senior oncology nurse and alternative therapist; Andy Letcher, author of Shroom, singer-songwriter and lecturer in Psychedelics at the University of Exeter; Flick Merauld, author of (among others) The Sacred Round: A Witch’s Guide to Magical Practice, Praise to the Moon: Magic & Myth of the Lunar Cycle and Spellcaster: Seven Ways to Effective Magic; Emma Restall Orr (Bobcat), author of Spirits of the Sacred Grove, Principles of Druidry, Kissing the Hag, The Wakeful World etc., and joint chief of the BDO from 1995 to 2002; Philip Shallcrass (Greywolf), author of Druidry: A Practical & Inspirational Guide, co-chief of the BDO and editor of its distance learning courses, musician, artist and craftsperson; and Alan Tickhill, founder of the UK-based Raven College of Shamanism.
