On Hallowe'en of 2002, I embarked on a journey that would comepletely reshape my life. I attended my first Druidic ritual and found my spiritual home.
The
purpose of this website is to present the documentation of my work with Ar nDraiocht Fein's Dedicant's Programme. Hopefully, it will help keep me accountable through the process and will possibly inspire and help others with their work on the DP or their own spiritual journey.
The site is seperated into four sections:
-
The first is basic information - the story of how I found ADF, a little biographical information and some links of interest.
-
The second section is "The First Triad" of work for the Dedicant's Programme. It consists of an essay in which I discuss the Nine Virtues of Right Druidic Living; and essay covering the history and ritual of the eight High Days most of ADF observes; four book reviews; and an essay describing the Three Kindreds and my relationship to them.
-
The third section is "The Second Triad" of DP documentation and contains a description and photos of my home shrine; an essay on grounding and centering practises I use in meditation; and an essay covering five months of daily meditations; and an essay describing my role in nature and how to lessen my impact on the Earth.
-
The final section is "The Third Triad" and contains descriptions of all High Day rituals I've attended and/or taken part in; an essay on how I've created my own hearth culture by hobbling together bits of Irish and Scottish mythos; and the text of two Oaths - my First Oath as a pagan and my Dedicant's Oath.
