Druidry

"Emma Restall Orr (Bobcat), author of Druid Priestess (a.k.a. Spirits of the Sacred Grove), Living Druidry, &c., says: ""There are a good many books on Druidry, but few have such a valuable blend of academic and historical with authentic experiential as Greywolf offers here."" Flick M.: ""The Druid path sensitively and evocatively explained. What I liked so much about this author's writing is that there is absolutely no side to him, no sense of ego or of talking down to the reader. His beautiful prose takes you straight to the heart of Druidry, connects you to the spiritual aspects of the natural world and the turning wheel of the seasons. There are some very moving rituals in the book too. Whether you are a newcomer or a Druid of many years, there is much of value here. I've both read about and practiced Druidry for years, but this book put me right back in touch with the reasons why I've always identified with this spirituality. Everything is clearly explained, but with depth and insight. Highly recommended."" Ronald Hutton, author of Pagan Religions in the Ancient British Isles, The Triumph of the Moon, Shamans, The Druids, Blood & Mistletoe, Pagan Britain, The Witch, &c., said of the 1st edition: ""I enjoyed the book so much ... it stands in the tradition, otherwise occupied by ... Philip Carr-Gomm and Bobcat (Emma Restall Orr), of 'contemplative' Druidry, aiming at personal experience and empowerment and individual action. What sets it apart ... is the very high degree of genuinely visionary and transcendent operation recorded in it ... it is the book of an ecstatic, and for me the finest moment in it is your account of your eagle-flight, which is classic shamanism ... I think that you are probably a shaman at the core of your being, quite convincingly dressed as a Druid. This may, in fact, be the role which the ancient Druids actually performed, and your instinctual way of being at present is far closer to it than that of most modern Druids."""
