Celtic Shamanism and the Druid Wisdom Tales


Indigenous cultures preserve and pass on their wisdom teachings in sacred stories.  The Druids were the keepers of memory, the storytellers, poets, and wisdom teachers of the ancient Celtic peoples.  From accounts written by Greek and Roman writers and the earliest Celtic tales written down in the Christian era, we discover the Druid teachings regarding life, death, morality, and the important human values that constitute a meaningful and worthwhile life. In our own age of doubt, cynicism, and moral confusion, we need the perennial wisdom of ancient peoples more than ever.  In this workshop we explore through storytelling, shamanic journeys, rituals, and meditations, the moral philosophy of the Druids regarding God, creation, suffering, joy, death, free will, and the call to lead a decent human life. The workshop is for people with shamanic skills who want to enrich their personal lives with the spiritual ideals of these ancient priests and priestesses of nature.

(Prerequisites: Participants must know how to journey into non-ordinary reality and to work with power animals.)
