To remember that all things vanish is to awaken from the hypnosis of tomorrow.
Then even the smallest moments,a hand upon your skin, light falling across a window, the silence after a beloved voice, acquire an unbearable beauty.
Impermanence is what gives existence its exquisite urgency.
Because what can disappear becomes infinitely precious.

And perhaps this is what it means to truly live:
to stop moving through life absent-mindedly, and to begin touching each moment as if the soul already knows it cannot be held.

KEEP THE PROMISES YOU MAKE
TO YOURSELF.
See how far you’ve come?
Be proud of yourself. If nothing else, one day, you can look at someone straight in the eye and say:
“But I lived through it and it made me who I am today."

Who Were the Legendary Female DRUIDS?

The Druids were the ancient spiritual leaders, philosophers, scientists, healers, and keepers of sacred knowledge within Celtic society.
For centuries, history reduced them almost entirely to male figures, yet ancient records reveal another truth — women also stood among their ranks as Druidesses, seers, healers, and guardians of wisdom.

The Wise Ones of Celtic Society

The word Druid is believed to arise from the Indo-European root deru, meaning “truth” or “true,” later connected to the Greek drus….
the oak tree, sacred to the Celts and symbolic of endurance, wisdom, and divine knowledge.

The Druids formed the intellectual and spiritual elite of the Celtic world. Though their role was rooted within the tribal structure, their influence extended far beyond religion. They were poets, astronomers, healers, philosophers, astrologers, judges, and magicians. Their education was rigorous and demanding, often requiring nearly twenty years of study to master medicine, alchemy, natural sciences, law, ritual traditions, and the hidden workings of the cosmos.

They governed intellectual life, oversaw judicial matters, healed the sick, advised rulers, and developed strategies in times of war. Within Celtic society, the Druids were revered as living reservoirs of wisdom …protectors of memory, knowledge, and sacred law.

Roman Accounts of the Druidesses

Julius Caesar was deeply fascinated by the Druids, describing them as theologians, philosophers, and scholars possessing extraordinary knowledge. Historians who study Caesar’s writings believe he was fully aware that women existed within the Druidic orders. Yet, as with much of ancient history, Roman writers often ignored women entirely, leaving only scattered traces of the Druidesses behind.

Still, fragments survive.

Strabo wrote of sacred women living upon an island near the Loire River, devoted to religious rites and mystical practices. In the Historia Augusta, female Druids are described advising Roman emperors such as Diocletian, Alexander Severus, and Aurelian, women regarded as prophetic figures whose counsel carried spiritual authority.

The image of the Druidess that emerges from these fragments is not one of silence or obscurity, but of presence, intellect, and power, women who stood at the threshold between the earthly and the sacred worlds.

Tacitus wrote of FEMALE DRUIDS while describing the brutal slaughter of the Druids by the Romans on the island of Mona in Wales. In his account, he speaks of women known as Banduri, female Druids, who defended the sacred island and cast curses upon the black-clad invaders.
Tacitus also observed that among the Celts there was no true distinction between male and female rulers, noting the formidable power and authority Celtic women possessed.

According to Plutarch, Celtic women were nothing like the women of Greece or Rome. They took part in the negotiation of treaties and wars, stood within assemblies, and acted as mediators in disputes and quarrels.
The geographer Pomponius Mela wrote of virgin priestesses living upon the island of Sena in Brittany, women gifted with the power of prophecy and foresight.

Famous Druidesses

Irish tradition preserves two principal names for Druid women: baduri and banfilid,
the female poets and seers. Yet the names of most Druidesses have long vanished into the mists of memory. One name that survives is Fedelma, recorded in ancient texts as a woman of the court of Queen Medb of Connacht, described as a banfili. She is said to have lived in Ireland during the 10th century BC.

Perhaps the most renowned descendant of a Druid woman was Boudicca, whose mother was believed to have been a banduri. Boudicca, queen of the Celtic Iceni tribe of Britain, rose in fierce rebellion against Rome during the 1st century AD, becoming an enduring symbol of resistance and sovereign feminine power.

The Worship of Goddesses

The Druidesses honored the goddesses through seasonal feasts and sacred celebrations woven into the rhythm of the year. Among the deities they revered was Brigid, whose presence endured long after the coming of Christianity, later transformed and adopted by Christian nuns as Saint Brigid.

She stands at the threshold of the sacred grove, sickle in hand, invoking the old powers beneath the shadow of the trees - one of the Banduri, feared even by Rome.

By the age of twenty she was already exhibiting at the Salon, and only four years later she received a Gold Medal at the Amsterdam Exposition.

Guard well within yourself that treasure, kindness.
Know how to give without hesitation, how to lose without regret,
how to acquire without meanness.

The mother gazes at the baby in her arms, and the baby gazes at his mother's face and finds himself therein...
provided that the mother is really looking at the unique, small, helpless being and not projecting her own expectations, fears, and plans for the child. In that case, the child would find not himself in his mother's face, but rather the mother's own projections. This child would remain without a mirror,
and for the rest of his life would be seeking this mirror in vain.

I no longer pray
now I drink dark chocolate
and let the moon sing to me.

I no longer pray
I let my ancestors dance
through my hips
at the slightest provocation.

I no longer pray
I go to the river
and howl my ancient pain
into the current.

I no longer pray
I ache, I desire,
I say “yes” to my longing.

I no longer pray as I was taught
but as the stars crawl
onto my lap like soft animals at nighttime
and God tucks my hair behind my ears
with the gentle fingers of her wind
and a new intimacy is uncovered in everything,
perhaps it’s that I’m finally learning
how to pray.
