Hi everyone, my name is Christopher Robin and I am so thrilled to be here with all of you. I just submitted my application last night so I havenāt even been accepted yet, but Iām really excited to get deeper into my Druidic practice which I have had for decades, more or less. I am now ready for a more formalized path of spiritual nourishment. I am a Christian Mystic who works for a Soto Zen Japanese Buddhist organization while being obsessed with Taoism and Yoda. I am also a poet of the finest order who believes that the spiritual melting pot will stir when we all can decipher the reason a cat will nonchalantly purrā¦.

Hello, Iām Valerie (she/her). I also felt called to the Druid name Willow, so I think Iād like to try that name out in this space. Iāve lived in New York my whole life and in the southern tier for the last ten years.
After a life time of ecospirituality I just started learning about Druidry this year and am excited to pursue this path more formally. Looking forward to getting to know folks here, connecting and learning

Hi there!
I live in the southern tier of New York now, but was born and raised on Long Island and visit my parents there regularly.
It has its flaws but Iām very grateful to the beautiful woods and shores of the island that raised me

Welcome Chuck, I look forward to getting to know you.
Hey there!
Iām from up in Bellingham, Washington and am excited to be here! I grew up in the woods which I think really shaped who I became spiritually, though I never really put a name to my practice till now. Iām grateful to the research that brought me to the AODA (including playing dnd, which really grabbed me by the shoulders and turned me in this direction to start researching 
). The curriculum seems right up my alley and Iām happy to have a structure to learn by. Im happy to be here and happy to meet everyone! Excited to see where the wind blows

Welcome, Gayle! There are many druids here who can thank DnD for helping them find their way here. Bright blessings and fair winds on your journey!

Hello and welcome to the forums! The first I heard of Druids was when playing DnD. One of my player-characters was a Druid.
