Druidism did not have a priest hood.


" Druidism did not have a priest hood. Religion is a Latin word meaning "to be tied with ligament" ­ this means to be have something fixed to you or to be held to a set of laws. Priests interpret these laws and in doing so they put themselves above and between you and the source. This denies your right to full and direct connection to source except through those who claim to be your betters. "

  • George King Sadly we are bound most often by Greek or Roman or both definitions. And often find ourselves beating one against another. 

    Like in this case.

    While those of my ways believe the Druids reserved what most think of as Worship and Religion for use with and for the Celts or Toutas (tribes) they served blending both the Toutas old gods if they had migrated it lands with Druids and the genius loci (guardiansor spirits of a place) along with other Forces (Gods Goddesses Otherkin) that they knew together as needed by the Toutas forms of food production and industries. 

    Perhaps Transmigration being the one exception to this.

    Transmigration:The Druidic belief that the life essence or soul of a living thing would pass immediately from their old vessel into a new lifeform after their physical death. << (ref. FatherOak {dot} com)

    I for one know of no sources to define how they would have defined thes terms that are tainted by the very definitions being used against each other here. An especially our pre-Iron Age Selves.
