Grove of Eithne

From FOI Co-Founder Olivia Robertson:

"In our Grove of Eithne in Clonegal, we honour all true traditions of every race and religions: we respect Ireland’s many ways from the pre-Celtic Firbolgs and Formorians, to the Tuathe de Danann and Celtic Christians. Dana has showed Herself to me and so I follow her way. Her hair is of the sun, her skin is pale as the moon and her turquoise blue mantle surrounds our islands as the sea. Yet She may appear with golden-ebony skin of Africa or with the copper glow of the Mayans. She is both Earth Mother and Queen of Heaven."

Written Language of Ancient Scotland

A study recently published by Professor Rob Lee of Exeter University presents findings that the Pictish stone monuments might actually contain a form of writing, using pictures. "The new study, published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society A, instead concludes that the engravings represent the long lost language of the Picts, a confederation of Celtic tribes that lived in modern-day eastern and northern Scotland."

Aisling, Magazine of the Druid Clan of Dana

"Aisling" was a magazine devoted to the work of the Druid Clan of Dana, produced in the early to mid 1990’s. The magazine produced some fine and thought provoking articles. One, written by Steve Wilson, appeared in Aisling issue no. 8, 1995, titled “Woodcrafting the Art of Magic.” It produced a high level of response. It has been cited as a reference by numerous authors and sources.

See: “Wicca and Druidry” an article featured on the OBOD website with reference to Steve's article.

Entrance to Dana Temple (Old Abbey)


Excerpt from "Guide to Clonegal Castle" by The Rev. Lawrence Durdin-Robertson M.A. (Dublin), Baron Strathloch, Priest of Isis, 1990

"The old ruins to the North of the Castle have always been known as the "Abbey." It may have been used by Franciscan monks, or it may have been part of the Augustinian Abbey of Abbeydown, two miles to the East. There are no records (written); it is thoughtto be over 600 years old ... It has two very old cells, which may have been oratory chapels. They have 3'6" roofs and date back to the 15th Century."
