Experience the strength and purity of fire, the emotional alchemy of water, the profound reality of earth, the awareness of air, and the transcendent mystery of spirit.

Enter the realm of myth where magick and the mundane blend. Druid Power is your guide to finding your way to the Otherworld and back again-richer, wiser, healed, and whole.

1.0 out of 5 stars Just terrible..., September 28, 2005

By 

S. A. Martin-Nunez "All Around Spiritual Seeker" (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Druid Power: Celtic Faerie Craft & Elemental Magic (Paperback)

Why would someone with no Druidic training whatsoever even bother writing a book on the subject? Whatever the author's credentials may be, none of them have to do with Druidry at all. That is obvious in this book which is purely fabricated and must have come out of the imagination of one who practices Celtic flavoured Wicca and magick.

Sorry to dissapoint everyone, but celtic wicca, or made up systems that could fall into the catagory of celtic wicca has nothing to do with druidry.

It isn't that the material provided in the book won't work. They will, of course, just like any ritual or spell written up by any individual will... But it is misrepresented as Druidry. It is not. There are better books out there for that.

Most of the information the author offers in this book on druidry in made up. I have studied druidry for awhile now and thought this book was one of the worst i have come across. The book doesn't even make a very good drink coaster, so do NOT read this book.

1.0 out of 5 stars Run, don't walk, away from this horrible book, September 29, 2006

This review is from: Druid Power: Celtic Faerie Craft & Elemental Magic (Paperback)

Run, don't walk away from this book. It's a hodge podge of modern Celtic Wicca, a sprinkle of Faery Wicca and a dash of ornamental magic with some dragon silliness thrown in. There is nothing Druidic about it. While it may contain potent exercises for self actualization, it's disgusting how she steals the word of Druid. She should have stuck to the subtitle - Celtic Faery Craft and Elemental Magic. There is a ridiculous romanticized history essay and while preaching about being open to wisdom, she is yet remarkably derogatory to modern druidry. It's awash in New Age and psychology psychobabble.
