Druidry encourages us to love widely and deeply. It fosters:

Love of the Land, the Earth, the Wild ~ reverence for Nature.

Love of Peace ~ Druids were traditionally peace-makers, and still are: each ceremony begins with Peace to the Quarters, there is a Druid's Peace Prayer, and Druids plant Peace Groves.

Love of Beauty ~ The Druid path cultivates the Bard, the Artist Within, and fosters creativity.

Love of Justice ~ Druids were judges and law-makers. Traditionally Druids are interested in restorative, not punitive, justice.

Love of Story and Myth ~ Druidry recognises and uses the power of mythology and stories.

Love of History and Reverence for the Ancestors ~ Druidry recognizes the forming power of the Past.

Love of Trees ~ Druids today plant trees and Sacred Groves, and study treelore.

Love of Stones ~ Druids today build stone circles, collect stones and work with crystals.

Love of Truth ~ Druid Philosophy is a quest for Wisdom.

Love of Animals ~ Druidry sees animals as sacred, and teaches sacred animal lore.

Love of the Body ~ Druidry sees the body and sexuality as sacred.

Love of the Sun, Moon, Stars, and Sky ~ Druid Starlore, embodied in the old stories and in the stone circles, teaches a love for the Universe.

Love of Each Other ~ Druidry fosters the magic of relationships, of community.

Love of Life ~ Druidry encourages celebration and full commitment to life ~ it is not a spirituality that wants us to escape from life.
