Polytheism Today

Ep 20: John Beckett, Druidry, and Public Ritual


Listen Later

My guest today is John Beckett, Druid and author of The Path of Paganism and Paganism in Depth.  John is a Druid in the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids, and a member of Ár nDraíocht Féin. He has served 12 years as the Coordinating Officer of the Denton Covenant of Unitarian Universalist Pagans and 3 years on the Board of Trustees of CUUPS Continental. His blog, Under the Ancient Oaks, is part of the Pagan channel of Patheos, the largest multi-religion website in the world. John lives in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and earns his keep as an engineer. He calls his personal practice “ancestral, devotional, ecstatic, oracular, magical, public, Pagan polytheism” because, as he says, he hasn’t come up with a catchy name for it yet.
