A Celtic Yearbook: Journal & Calendar
In this beautiful larger journal edition of A Celtic Yearbook, Lizzy Shannon takes us through the Gregorian calendar as well as the 13 months and single day of the Druidic calendar. Included new tidbits of Celtic and Druidic lore! Like the Native Americans, Celtic traditions were handed down through the generations. Explore legends and superstitions, find out how to make honey mead, hand-made soap, and learn about the Celtic astrological signs that are based on the Dryadic personalities of individual trees. Discover which sign you were born under, who your Celtic spirit animal guide is, and much more. (American spelling)
