Thinking about posting a fan fic but scared at the same time. I'm a first time author, usually just relegated to editor for others. How do people have the fortitude to post stories? 😑

So damn true

“Nothing exists except atoms and empty space; everything else is opinion.”

– Democritus (c. 460 - c. 370 BC)

Druidry is based on what we can assume from Ancient Druid traditions. Which includes the religions that were around at the time as well. Now here's a very important thing, we don't know much because the Druids would pass things down through oral tradition, and the Christianization of the Celtic nations caused it to die.

What we know about Ancient Druids: Druid was a job position and status, they did a lot of things like advise, heal, and mediate conflicts.

Modern Druidry is not Ancient Druidry. We literally cannot be like the ancient Druids because we don't know enough about them and we also aren't going to be advising kings that's just- not happening.

Modern Druidry, however, is based in what little we know. No one is claiming it is exact, and if they are, they are wrong.

What we know about the culture where the druids existed: Holidays, clothing, religion (thanks to some Christian priests who wrote myths down during the Christianization of the nations), legends and other mythology not relating directly to religion, the Fair folk (aka Fae).

With what we know about Ancient Druids, and what we know about the culture itself, we have attempted to combine into the religion/spirituality of Modern Druidry. We call ourselves Druids not because we are advisors to kings, but because we are honoring the Ancient Druids that were once spiritual leaders and important members of society. What we follow is hopefully something close to what Ancient Celts would have followed.

Why? For a lot of reasons, but let's just go with the simple answer "because we like it" just like with any damn religion.

Okay, where do I get a space pony? Because this thing is adorable.

On This Day in Cryptid History  

November 14th: In an evening in 1974, on Bald Mountain, Washington, a fiery object was seen in the sky, and a week later, residents around the area reported a horse sized, green glowing creature. Supposedly the Men in Black were seen in the area as well.
