Beltane

Wood AnemoneWIGHT Druids are intending to offer their usual open public celebration of Beltane on Thursday, May 1, at The Longstone, Mottistone, as close as possible to sunrise.

The date and timing, of course, coincides with a long-standing regular fixture for Wight Morris and we will naturally respect (and enjoy!) their performance before embarking on our own celebration of the festival.

As always, all will be welcome who approach with open heart and mind, and in the spirit of mutual respect that is the Druid ethic.

All hail to the May!

A Perennial Course in Living Druidry

WIGHT Druids are getting together a small group to study ‘A Perennial Course in Living Druidry‘, developed by Emma Restall Orr (Bobcat), founder of our close affiliates, The Druid Network, and author of many books on the subject of modern Druidry.

It is envisaged group meetings will be only once per lunar month, outdoors in the wild whenever possible, and will follow the wheel of the year using material Emma has made freely available online, so anyone taking the course can always go at their own pace. No pressure, here. No exams. The aim is simply to enjoy, and to share inspiration.
Some people have already expressed an interest and it is currently considered that the course should start soon after Beltane (May 1).
There are no fees involved – everything Wight Druids do is always offered free of charge – and anyone interested is welcome to jump in at any point during the course.
This course does not directly address the ‘nuts and bolts’ of Druidry, although anyone joining can of course be shown how to find all of the more practical, basic or more advanced, teachings for themselves, but is designed to lay the best possible foundation for integrating Druidry as a personal way of life, and to offer deep inspiration to all who are already following this beautiful natural path, or who are considering walking this way.

Let us know if you are interested. E-mail scribe@wightdruids.co.uk

May the Awen be with you.
