The membership administration and webmaster department will be on vacation until July 20, 2021. Support tickets and other inquiries may not be answered until after July 20. 

Thank you for your understanding.

We are happy to announce that we have launched a new self-study Meditation Course. The course does not come with mentoring, but is free for all members of NOD. Its main purpose is to help students of other courses with their meditation practice, but you can also take this course if you're not enrolled in any other courses.

The Meditations Course is a practical journaling course involving meditations and visualisations which are intended to demonstrate your own personal growth in this aspect of personal practice. The course provides 39 meditations and journaling exercises to be performed over a period of 13 months. By keeping a journal you will be able to look back on your entries and see the progress you make and this will aid in your future development.

You can find the Meditation Course here:

In 2006, we introduced the "Oran Mor", the quarterly Celtic E-Zine of the New Order of Druids. It was introduced as a service for upgraded members, and each edition contains a variety of articles, including NOD news, seasonal-related articles, book reviews, stories, artwork, poetry, and much more.

In order to improve communications with NOD and its members, the Council has decided to make the Oran Mor e-zine open to all members of NOD, and no longer just the upgraded ones. This means that, as of today, you can download the latest edition of our e-zine every time it comes out, as well as every previous edition published between 2006 and now. Many hours of reading enjoyment guaranteed!

What do you need to do to access the Oran Mor?
All you need is to be a member of NOD with a registered account on our website. It doesn't matter if you're a free member or an upgraded member.

Once you've logged in, go to "My Services" and then to "Oran Mor E-Zine". Then you just click the "download" button, which will bring you to the list of all editions of our e-zine. The most recent edition is on top. 

You can also just go to this link directly (after you're logged in) and then to "download":

We will still send an e-mail to our NODNews mailing list every time a new edition of the Oran Mor is released (4 times a year), so you'll know the newest edition is ready for you to read whenever you wish!

Our e-zine is published in PDF-format. This means that, just like the handbook courses of our online Druid college, you'll need a PDF reader installed on your computer or device in order to open it and read the Oran Mor. Acrobat Reader is most commonly used, and is a completely free program, though other PDF readers exist as well.
