Introduction
to The Druids and Celts
page 4
Druids are also typically homeopathic healers and astrologers. However Druids are principally the teachers of Truth who assist their aspirants in seeing the divine spirit within themselves and indeed within all things. Druids use natural science and experience to verify truths and spiritual development is an interactive process and not a faith. A triad of the three fundamental Principles of wisdom is: Obedience to the Laws of God effort for the welfare of mankind and heroically enduring the unavoidable ills of life.

... on Druid teachings there is an excellent list of active organizations in Drawing Down the Moon by Margot Adler or in Circle Network News a quarterly newspaper that has listings of Celtic and Druid organizations. As Druids typically do not write down their teachings in keeping with a time-honored tradition no books are available by a Druid that describe their teachings. It is suggested to either write to one of the groups listed in Margot Adler's book or visit a metaphysical bookstore and ask around to see if there are any Pagan groups nearby and if there are contact them. As you get to know people in Pagan circles the Druids will observe you and judge your character. If they feel that you have the qualities and aptitude to become a Druid then you will be invited to join their group.
