Who is the god of the druids?

Introduction to Druid

The word Dryad originally came from Druidism, that is, Druidism. Dryad in Roman and Greek mythology means the goddess of the forest. It is said that every oak tree is inhabited by elves, and these tree spirits pass the Oracle to human beings through tree demons. Therefore, Dryad usually appears as a tree spirit in his later literary works.

The original meaning of the word druid is "someone familiar with rubber trees". Historically, he was a Celtic priest. His main feature was that he lived in the forest and was good at using herbs for medical treatment. Acorns are sacred to them. Celtic was a barbarian scattered in Gaul, England, Ireland, Europe, Asia Minor and the Balkans from the 5th century BC to the 1 century AD. Druid priests are proficient in divination, meticulous in rituals, and good at calendars, medicine, astronomy and literature ... At the same time, they are also synonymous with law enforcers, bards and explorers. Both men and women can become priests of Druidism, and they can act as priests, wizards or prophets in their families, and they also enjoy a lofty position in society. Some historians equate druid priests with Brahmins, Magi, priests and shamans in India.

The Historical Origin of Druidism

Europeans generally believe that druidism advocates nature and neutrality, and they regard the whole wasteland as a hermit at home. They let their special forces protect nature and balance the whole world. In modern fantasy literature, druids are worshippers and defenders of nature. In order to protect nature, they can fight against any force. Druid's original English name is Druid. The first half of druid means oak tree in Greek, and the second half is similar to the suffix "-wid" in Indo-European language family, which means understanding. Druids take acorns as sacred fruit, so the ancient meaning of Druids' names refers to people who are familiar with oak trees. The famous "Merlin" in King Arthur's time is said to be a wizard with extraordinary power. In fact, she should be a druid with considerable practice.

Druids worship nature, and the worship of oak is the symbol of the supreme god, so they think that mistletoe parasitic on oak is a panacea with sacred skills and the best curative effect, and of course it needs to be collected through a particularly serious ceremony. This ceremony can only be held on the days of full moon and new moon, or on the sixth night of every month. At this time, Arch-Druid, the highest priest of the Druid, wore a white robe and gold jewelry and cut it off from the tree with a golden sickle.
