The Druids Garden

Well, dear readers and friends, the collapse is well underway.

One of the common questions that comes up about druidry is whether or not you can call yourself a “druid” and when.

Last weekend I had an opportunity to offer the Keynote at the Plant Cunning Conference in Central New York.

One of my favorite times of the year is spring–when the land is awakening, and the green is returning!

When I first started writing about the idea of refugia over a decade ago, the idea where we would intentionally create nature sanctuaries, pockets of life where the land could flourish, grow, and be protected from everything that is going on outside.

When I stand on the edge of our own land here that we have tended and regenerated for almost a decade and look out beyond our property line, I see so many things.

In today’s post, I want to return once again to the tsunami that is breaking against humanity–the rise and frenzy of Generative AI.

In my last post, I shared my magical bardic process for recreating the four elemental symbols that I photographed from the Museum of Alchemy, Speculum Alchemiae.

There are so many ways to honor the Awen as a druid–the spark of inspiration, the flow of ideas, and continuing to pursue a project that must make its way into the world.

At the beginning of January, I always do a 10-day spiritual retreat.
