There are not actually very many articles about modern druids, there are organization websites like the one for the Order of Bards, Ovates, and Druids and A Druid Fellowship

And there are several good blogs like John Beckett on Patheos, Damh the Bard (a very well known and influential figure in modern Druidry), and the Archdruid Report by John Michael Greer, the Grand Archdruid of the Ancient Order of Druids in America

Thing to remember is that there are three main approaches to modern Druidry, one is as a religion, people who worship gods, perform rituals, so on, those that approach it as a spirituality and therefor don't hold gods or ritual with as much importance and focus more on themselves than outside forces, and then those who approach it as a philosophy, these people might not even be theistic at all, and tend to focus on the physical world rather than the spiritual one. There are people fall in between of course but that's the basic gist of it. You're going to have to figure out where you fall in that before you have a better idea as to what kind of information and guidance you're looking for.

A few books you could look at are:

The Path of Druidry

The Druidry Handbook

Bonewits's Essential Guide to Druidism

A Brief History of the Druids

It's important to try and read something like that last book especially to give you some sort of context as to how and why modern Druidry came to be. It isn't an ancient religion, we have no ties to the ancient Druids, and very little knowledge about them at all. So to avoid looking foolish, I'd suggest definitely reading something about the history of the Celts and the Druids, and the modern movement.

Also, spiritual ecology books are a good supplement, Druidry is focused on nature so of course learning about nature, ecology, biology, and such is only going to help you. My two favorites are Spiritual Ecology: The Cry of the Earth and Mystery Teachings from the Living Earth: An Introduction to Spiritual Ecology

Being new to discovering your abilities is the BEST! I am so excited for you!

As a medium, I find it important to always work through the heart, and to be sure I am grounded and centered before doing any Spirit work. Build your relationship to Soul/Higherself. I found connecting IN to my own Soul brings the clearest energy. Begin learning your own energy, sooner than you know you'll be able to discern energies and begin clear communication.

Soul1.org is a great site to learn to clear your Central Channel. All of this clearing work will serve you in the long. You'll be so happy you laid a basic foundation for yourself.

There is also a book Soul Psycology by Joshua David Stone that has tons of excellent information in it. Basic framework to higher development. He has written a lot of books, most I am not a huge fan of, but this one I enjoyed. Another fun one, especially of you like working with visuals (sacred geometry) Sedona Beyond the Vortex by Richard Dannelley. If you enjoy books about Channeling or Archangels check out What is Lightbody by Archangel Ariel channelled through Tashira Tachi-ren.


Find a solid network of people that you can feel comfortable with for learning. No matter how you choose to learn, or who you choose to learn with, just remember you have the power to do everything you're hoping to accomplish! Your teacher, should you choose to work with one, should be leading you to your own power.

Edit: typos (of course) x2.

Sure! I started gathering info on YouTube, so social media witches are strangely my first true love - I get a lot of inspiration seeing actual people practice. I rec Kelly-Anne Maddox for her psychological and tarot content, and Hearth Witch for her practical info - it’s like she reads all the books and presents the best parts. I like Behatilife for astrology and predictions (though I know that’s not every SASS witches bag! She’s very motivational though).

I love Fotis Casper on YouTube for meditation music, he creates music for every full and new moon that somehow correlate with the positions of planets (he uses tones that correlate to the resonance of planets- something I’m sure science witches among us could think is cool).

I don’t particularly love witchcraft books, but when I formulate spells, Scott Cunningham’s Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs is the best resource. https://www.healing-crystals-for-you.com is my favorite place to look up crystal meanings.

I’m super privileged to have a ridiculously amazing local new age/witch store that gives me so much inspiration.

As a bonus, my most useful crystal is garnet, and my favorite deck is the Queen of the Moon Oracle.

There's some fun stuff at Adventures Unlimited Press. One example would be Anti-Gravity and the World Grid.

u/SimplyMermaid88 · 3 pointsr/tarot

I'm not feeling well right now so I'm just gonna post the amazon link and if any one is interested they can PM me. But I would really like some oracle cards or another halloween related deck.

The moon is a symbol of feminine energy, emotions, intuition, dreams, and the subconscious. You can use astrology to trace it's transit through the signs to see how your emotions will be influenced throughout the year, and use it's cycles to work magick. I know not all wiccans practice magick, but if you're interested in working with the moon this is a great book that really added something to my moon working: Moonology by Yasmin Bowland

u/axolotl_peyotl · 2 pointsr/conspiracy

While I agree, I've actually read some of this guy's stuff (Scott de Hart), but only as a coauthor with Joseph Farrell, who happens to be one of my favorites (the guy writing this blog).

Obviously I have no idea what claims are being made, but Farrell has actually mentioned this whole Percy/Mary Shelley thing before, so my curiosity on this subject was piqued a while back.

If you're interested, you should check out The Grid of the Gods: The Aftermath of the Cosmic War and the Physics of the Pyramid Peoples by Farrell and de Hart. It truly is fascinating stuff.

So yeah, I can't vouch for the veracity of this particular claim, but I have read this author before and I have a strong affinity for him and Dr. Farrell, who I started a sub for.

Your vibration is rising, which has the multiple effects you described. Rising vibration just means you're becoming closer to the high order principles, such as Love and Truth. You now have more Love and Truth in your reality experience than before. One could also say you're being activated.

The ability to feel other people makes you an empath. The level of depth and detail of your empathic perception, especially now that you're awakening, is not something other people have. Your ability can be classed as a psychic ability. Your budding ability to see auras makes you slightly clairvoyant at this time as well. Of course as you grow all of this is subject to change.

Lots of people have experienced what you're experiencing. I've seen literally hundreds of people waking up in their own way, which usually involves discovering how reality is all connected, it's multidimensional, we can have psychic abilities, we do have souls that incarnate, and we all have a purpose to be on Earth. There's lots of stuff online for empaths and awakening people. I'll toss you a basic skeletal framework of what I think is relevant to you now. There is however, much more. Start with the ones I labeled most important and come back on later dates to the other stuff. If you try to look at all of this at once you'll burn out your mind.

Articles:

10 Signs You're an Empath

Signs and Symptoms of a Spiritual Awakening - most important

Books:

Psychic Empath Development - most important

Conversations with God: Book 1

Videos:

my seemingly out of the blue spiritual awakening experience - most important

Awakening 101 "The Field" & A story that changed my life - most important

Combo: On Synchronicity, by Carl Jung & On Synchronicity: A Reader Reflects

Teal Swan on Ascension

The 4th Dimensional Shift, What to Expect

Energy Healing to Remove Limiting Beliefs - try this and see if you can feel the energy he sends to you. It will help prove that multidimensional energy is real and can be used as a tool.

Crosspost this to r/psychic and r/Soulnexus for even more help. Browse Soulnexus, look at the posts this past few months and just start clicking stuff. It's a lot to take in at first, but you will eventually be able to synthesize it all together and understand it. Use Google and learn all the terminology and the perspectives in the new spiritual community.

Tip: you can use your emotions to tell what is right for you at a particular time. If the information contains fear or makes you feel fear or overwhelmed, it's not useful now. However, something that isn't right for you one day, you may look at again another day and get it.

If information gives you high order emotions like Love, Joy, Hope, Inspiration, etc. then that is a sign that the information is good because it contains a high degree of coherency and resonance for you. We are in a multidimensional universe and live with multidimensional bodies. Your emotions and your heart are connected to the high intelligence of the higher dimensions which is why you can use your heart to guide you in the way I described.

Now, I sent you all those links to stuff you can look at, however all of that is external and can get too confusing. Don't overwhelm yourself! The most important thing for you to do is to use your inner guidance, because your inner guidance is always right for you and doesn't lie. If you were to pick only one thing to do, you have to try directed intention meditation. While meditating, think, imagine, and ask for signs to appear in your life from your higher self or oversoul. Ask to be guided to the information you need. Ask for clarity and a smooth awakening process. You can do one of these meditations. It may take a few tries. Feel free to message me if you hit a wall or have questions.

Following for the good Norse pagan books.
My pagan book club just read To Walk a Pagan Path by Aleric Albertsson. He is a bard. its pretty interesting. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FM5E1QC/ref=oh_aui_d_detailpage_o04_?ie=UTF8&psc=1#nav-subnav

He totally disregard's the rational I propose for consideration based on vocabulary I used. Let me remind anyone reading here;

https://www.amazon.ca/Orb-Project-Klaus-Heinemann-Ph-D/dp/1582701822

even Ph.D's can be idiots. Talk to doctors of medicine who were trained out of country for their opinion on vaccines or verify their countries vaccinations protocols yourself and see how they compare.

Everything is ultimately geometry, the maths and theory of Nassim work (aka why we are here). And David Wilcock did a whole season on Wisdom Teachings on the various planetary motions that indicate geometric patterns (e.g. Galaxy spirals and pentagons; saturn's hexagonal storm; jupiter's "Eye" storm coordinates) and same on this Planet, places like Hawaii are nodes of particular high activity on a double merkaba style. Book called The Energy Grid by Bruce Cathie is a fantastic book about this. And there are guys such as the russian scientist Aleksei Dimitriev who have published highly interesting papers on how we are entering a new, more densed area of the Galaxy, and how it will affect our Sun, and thus all of life as we know (Law of One books talk of it as a density phase, the fourth in this case). This is what is connected in the ascension era, in which our DNA and consciousness will become more evolved and experience awareness differently, with more clarity. By the way, our DNA is also formed in a holographical spiral structure of the galaxies. In this case, the dodecahedron.

We are undergoing the transformation of a living cosmic geometry, which we are fractals of.

Opened my eyes to possibilities outside my conscious experience of the world in a very enjoyable read of his experience on a magical island in Indonesia where colors have sounds and dance is a language.

STRAWMAN. The "between-life" does not match religious dogma.

Contemporary descriptions of the afterlife all agree.

Its not reward or punishment and its not our final destination.

I'd suggest comparing the between-life descriptions of:
