Though I am not druidic, I understand
what beltaine is. I had(past tense)
friend who studied druidism passionately.

What I can say about druidism is that
it is very UK and how we see it here is
perhaps mangled, and since I am in
the USA what do you expect, they mangle
every good thing.

I hope you have a good Beltaine,
From,
Ghosthunter

yes - High Priestess, or Second Degree - although don't work with a coven anymore - i'm more or less a solitary. am also an ovate in the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids (although somewhat "lapsed"). my High Priest and Initiator has AS too, interestingly enough, although i didn't realise until a while after i knew him (and was initiated)
