“Will you ever begin to understand the meaning of the very soil beneath your feet? We (Native Americans) are the guardians of this sacred place." Blue Cloud, Mohawk 

Just as Native Americans are the guardians of their sacred place, 
so we are the guardians of ours.
      
Druids were believed to be the priests of our native spiritual tradition ‘the old religion’ of the peoples who inhabited the islands of Britain and Ireland, spreading through much of Europe. It is increasingly understood, and within the Druid community acknowledged, to be of an older indigenous if ever-evolving religious tradition sourced within these islands.The Iron Age tribes who inhabited these islands in what is called the 'Celtic' period believed deeply in animism (all things have their own spirit) – their spiritual leaders may have been the Druids but they also had their shamans, their wise women/cunning men,  all of the tribe members would have followed the spiritual tradition. They knew the cycles of the seasons and the movement of the stars, they knew the natural magic of the land and the energies that flow through our universe. We cannot recreate their time but we can seek to regain some of the knowledge that we have ‘mislaid’ and apply it to the 21st Century. 
Celtic Earth Spirit seeks to provide a resource for all who wish to live an Earth Spirituality; and we do 'live' an Earth Spirituality - just saying that we are a Druid does not make us one - this is a way of life - this permeates into everything we do - and it is what we do that affects the Earth - we must 'walk our talk'

Book Store
Celtic Earth Spirit - working in conjunction with Amazon - now have a specialised book store with sections on Druidry, Celtic Myth and Legend, Celtic Spirituality & Wisdom, Arthur - Merlin & the legends, Tree Lore & Herbalism and Eco-psychology - Earth & Nature.
The books and/or their authors are known to us  (or recommended to us) and are known to be good subject matter.  Just because a book is not listed by us does not mean that it is not good - just unknown to us, but let's face it there is a lot of rubbish out there and the aim of the book store is to help you to avoid wasting money. 
The Book Store is a separate astore within Amazon and will navigate you away from this main site - don't worry you can easily return by clicking the Celtic Earth Spirit link at the bottom left of the sidebar on each book store page.
Celtic Earth Spirit earn a small commission for each book that you buy through this astore - this helps to fund the continuation of this web-site, please support us and help us to keep going by buying your books through us.

Love & honour the Earth for it blesses your life & governs your survival
Keep each day sacred and celebrate the turning of the seasons
Do not hold yourself above other living things or drive them to extinction
Give thanks for your food - to the creatures and plants that nourish you
Limit your offspring for the Earth cannot sustain multitudes of people
Do not waste Earths riches on weapons of war
Do not pursue profits at the Earth expense instead seek to restore its damaged majesty
Do not hide from yourself or others the consequences of your actions upon the Earth
 Do not steal from future generations by impoverishing or poisoning the Earth
Consume material goods in moderation so all may share the Earths bounties
