Welcome
We honour a cycle of the year which incorporates the Celtic Wheel of the Year. They can be read about here. We undertake priestly functions at celebrations and other rites of passage. Please contact us for handfastings, burials, namings and other blessings. Our services can be gained for travelling and out of pocket expenses, and a donation to a charity of our choice.
The Druids of Albion support the work of The Druid Network, the Ceile De, Honouring The Ancient Dead, the Ord Brighideach International, The British Druid Order, The Druid Forum, OBOD and many other groups and organisations, so please see our Links page. We have a druidry teaching or training facility to our order which was originally started by Chris Turner and has been completed and revised by Geoff Boswell. Please see our page here. |
FocusThe Druids of Albion have a teaching focus to their activity and utilise or advocate a range of resources or techniques available in Druidry and Celtic Christianity today from a wealth of diverse and respected teachers.
Objectives
1) To promote and support the continuing development of the living principles of Druidry as an expression of the One Light, The Holy Spirit, or the Awen.
2) To bring our work into the public forum and to make our spiritual practice accessible to all without obligation or prejudice. 3) To aid and assist our practice to become truly universal in all respects: geographical, cultural, and spiritual. 4) To contribute to the networking of druidic spiritual expression and sharing the expressions of Awen Consciousness. 5) To contribute to community development and capacity building. 6) To contribute to the representation of our work in the interfaith arena. |
Our Celtic spirituality
When Christianity first came to the British Isles, it had a distinctly Celtic flavour. It was characterised by a continued reverence for Nature as the face of the Divine. The One God spoke simply in the solitudes of wind and woodland, sea-wave and mountaintop... and for centuries, the old Gods and Goddesses – the many faces of The One - continued to have a place in the hearts and holy days of the people.
This Living Celtic Spiritual Tradition is a moving and intelligent Path that is a new testament to its ancestor; the mystery tradition of Druidism. It lives in relationship with the imminent and transcendent Divine and expresses a deep faith in the transformative power of Love, all leading toward unitive-consciousness. It honours the Earth as Divine Manifestation, the Mother of mystical experience, the hollow of God’s hand.
