Here are a few links to web pages that I think are well worth a visit and perhaps may widen one's perception and knowledge, besides just being interesting reading sometimes on what is happening around the world.
The Ophidian or Serpent-venerating Traditional Craft, (such as used by the Ordo Anno Mundi), has been around for a very long time. One of its magical texts, the "Oera Linda Book", has sections that date back more than four thousand years. Every ancient culture recognized a primordial Serpent-deity associated with wisdom and power, dwelling in the watery Abyss deep below the Earth's surface.
Journeying the Druid Path is a personal voyage of Discovery, in which you will find contains secrets, doorways to other worlds, events and places. To discover these secrets you must explore. Open your mind to all possibilities; use your imagination and use the ancient magick of the Earth and Ancient Powers. Do not assume the path is static, for the 'real' world of the Druid Path constantly changes and evolves. As it grows, you too will grow...To learn more about the The Order of Bards, Ovates & Druids, go to their personal site at http://www.druidry.org/
For those others, who do not wish to join an order, but practice
alone to start with and who are interested in following an Authentic Course in
Celtic Druidism - or who feel that the lore of King Arthur touches them
personally, can follow the way of, The New Forest Centre, founded by Douglas
Monroe, and should first buy his two books, ("The 21 Lessons of
Merlyn" and "Lost Books of Merlyn"). The books take you
through an engrossing adventure and a psychological journey into history and
magic. Here is a masterful reconstruction of Celtic Mythology and
Arthurian Legend combined into a programme of practical instruction in Mythical
Thinking and Magical Techniques. I urge all Wiccans, occultists and of
course those interested in serious life quests to read this adventure of the old
religion introduced in such a wonderful way as has been done by Douglas Monroe.
Then to visit his excellent site, at www.newforestcentre.com
or http://members.aol.com/newforestcentre/home.htm
for more details.
Yet more on the Druids, another site offers an archive of Adobe Acrobat PDF files which contains the complete text and illustrations from the printed copy of A Reformed Druid Anthology. If you download all the files, you can print and bind your own copy of the book, if you like.
A list of other Druid Links that you may find interesting.

Alexandrian Book of Shadows (Public Domain) is at - http://www.omphalos.net/bosh/index.html
Wiccan / Alexandrian (I'm surmising that this stemmed from the newer practices of today, where fierce and petulant opposition to modern roots fades into a harmonious way of Wicca). Presented here is a document drawn from public domain sources and is also readily available in the work of Stewart and Janet Farrar, most notably the "Witches Bible Complete" and this link is at - http://www.wiccanway.net/bos.html
If we are ever going to be complete in offering links to on-line Books of Shadows, while at the same time offering our thanks to people who have done more for Wicca than most in the last 20 years, it must go Janet and Stuart Farrer in offering the public so many wonderful books with the dedication and simplicity of their superb explanations, in making Wicca truly for everyone. In grateful thanks, we have placed a link to the Janet Farrar and Gavin Bone Web Site, Wicca na hErin, which gives their public domain Book of Shadows within its pages.

Seax-Wica was the inspiration of Raymond Buckland. In 1973 fed-up with the egotism and power trips exhibited by some others within the craft, he decided to leave the Gardnerian tradition feeling it no longer met his religious needs. He felt that the craft needed to develop beyond ego trips and self-gratification into a bone-fide religion, which did away with an oath of secrecy and became more democratic and enjoyable. To learn more about Seax Wicca you may visit Ray Buckland's Home Page
The Home Pages of Seax Wicca from the "Coven of the Spiral Seax" in the heart of England, who's aim is to teach all that are interested about the tradition of Seax Wica.

own political & ethical agendas. Blessed be those that follow this
philosophy. I support enlightenment through education and explanation. I hope
this website helps contribute towards that goal.
General
and Fairy Folklore of the Celtic countries and their myths and legends.
A pleasant and very informative site to spend some time in.
The Pagan Year Common to many early beliefs was the practice of linking events that took place to a cycle. The cycle became the year and rather like a wheel that keeps turning, so one year was succeeded by the next. This site has tried to put together some brief notes in the pages for each month of the year. In many cases it is not possible to assign particular events accurately, farming festivals were often linked to the weather and state of the harvest, Christian festivals were often linked to dates that were moveable, and the months in the various calendars to not fit exactly to the months of the calendar in use today.
