Riassunto

A highly readable and beautifully designed exploration of ritual, ideal for all those who wish to add a touch of spirituality into their daily lives. This has the potential to become a core book on modern ritual.

Starting with an introduction to ritual and how it can be used, the book then describes the essential components that make a ritual potent and effective. Although it is grounded in Druidry, it gives a basic framework for each ritual which encourages the practitioner to use the book within their own spiritual tradition.

Inspirational and practical, the book includes ideas for rituals to celebrate a marriage, to welcome and name a child, to deal with grief, deepen one’s creativity, understand the inner meaning of Christmas or simply light a candle to welcome the day.

Dalla quarta di copertina:

Ritual is an art form. However we create a ritual – whether we make it delicate with fine detail, abstract or impressionistic, or as earthy as finger-painting with mud – it always offers us the same opportunity: to pause amidst the chaotic stream of living to look around, to check where we are and where we are going, and to remember how beautiful to life inspired and better able to move with the flows of change and growth.

'Ritual: A Druid's Guide to Love and Inspiration' is based on the wisdom of the Druid tradition, yet it is relevant and accessible to anyone, regardless of their spirituality, Druidry's spiritual philosophy is simply that the world is sacred, vibrant with spirit, with divine creative energy. It teaches us to honour the earth, our ancestors and our individuality, and guides us towards inspiration, creativity, and the freedom to live life fully, richly, blessed with love.

'Ritual: A Druid's Guide to Life, Love and Inspiration' provides a clear understanding of the universal nature of ritual. Exploring ideas for the solar festivals of the year, for rites of passage, the tides of the moon, for healing, change and empowerment, the book offers the reader all they need to create their own effective, unique and inspired ritual practice.
