'Natural Druidry' by Kristoffer Hughes

Postby the Kite » 13 Oct 2012, 14:24

I'm reading this now, having had to go to some lengths to obtain it.

Short review: it's excellent. A clear, concise, passionate introduction to Druidry. Moreover, and why I'm posting this here specifically, it's written from a very Welsh perspective, in contrast to much writing about Druidry. No confusion of Welsh, Scottish and Irish, no superficial sprinkling of Welsh words for 'authentic' flavour: Kris writes as an insider to Welsh language and culture as well as from inside a deep and wise experiential knowledge of Druidry. A very wise and a very humane account.

Looking forward to his next book, 'From the Cauldron born.'

Pre ordered the Cauldron book. I have had the pleasure of meeting Kris and he is inspirational in person as well as in writing. :)
From decay comes growth, fungal or otherwise. All stages of death are filled with life and life to be. Creation is made up of ugly beauty that is gorgeous to those who can feel as well as they can see.
