The Greek αδει(αν)ός (adei(an)os) means empty, because Aeneas's mother, Venus, in the form of a hunting woman was very similar to the goddess Diana and because the Aeneid describes that since Paris (mythology) the temples hallow an empty name and she went down the empty sky when Eurytion held the arrow ready on his bended bow.

This is one course in the long awaited, expanded coursework and study that waspreviously offered in the Summerlands and which was published in the Journal of the Henge of Keltria. It has been greatly expanded and is patterned on Udemy classes (and may well be presented there in the future). Ogham Keys to Wisdom is an introductory study into the ways of Druids that explores their hidden knowledge while also establishing a systematic approach to implementing that wisdom within modern Druidic practice. It does this through a nine fold investigation into the elemental qualities of everything as understood by the Celts and Druids.Currently there are three courses available to chose (through the link above) out of a total of nine. Each course and its class lectures has its own materials and audio/video presentations to assist you in attaining wisdom.

Class 1 -THE TRADITIONAL ROLES OF DRUIDS
The Druids were the intelligentsia of Celtic society and fulfilled many roles within it. They witnessed oaths and remembered feats and traditions. They were also the spiritual specialists and the traditional leaders of the sacrifices to the gods among the Celts. To guarantee that oaths would be faithfully remembered and that the traditions covering the basis of Celtic law would not be sullied, Druids served as official witnesses and were required to at all times hold to the truth. Any Druid found to be untrue would no longer be recognized as a Druid by the people and would effectively be caste out or exiled from their society. Truth and being are the oaken roots of Druids in the life of the people. A Druid's truth is found in the strength and straightness of the ash and the ever-springing resilience of the yew.- Our Forms of Truth

Class 2 – SEEKING WISDOM
I have always maintained that Draíocht is a seeking of truth and a stewardship of harmony. I commend anyone (whether Druid, Christian, atheist or otherwise) on the overall harmony that is contained within their words or way of life. Their harmony in being speaks well of the communion that Nature has shared with them in their lives and workings. A triad that I am particularly fond of is that the three strong supporters of the wise person's pursuit of wisdom are knowledge, information and inquiry. It is my firm belief that these three come more readily to the person who maintains an open mind and a trained and discriminating memory.- Spiritual Harmony

- We must give of ourselves so that we may receive of ourselves
- Druids are TRUTH SEEKERS and STEWARDS of HARMONY
- Responsibility and Spiritual Abdication
- The Testimony of our Enemies
- According to Caesar
- According to Dio Chrysostom
Class 3 - TRUTH AS CREATION
Truth is the power that creates. Words describing a thing paint a picture of its creation. Words are the tools and sometimes the roadmap. Words bring the image of a thing into our minds and create them there. They are also the smoke that leads to the fire as well as the signal itself given by the fire to thoughts and awareness. The source of that fire is to be found inherently within wood and will, as well as in the ability of life to store energy within forms that are harmonious to other life. Perhaps Carbon, Oxygen, Hydrogen and Nitrogen should be our gods (or at least our Dúile)? They are the forms that support life and our physical selves.- The Quest for Truth

Class 4 - TRUTH AS PHILOSOPHY
Much has been said about the idea of truth here in this work and especially as it is understood by Druids. The following early Irish remarks on the subject can provide us with a common point of discussion and reference. The treatise is found in one of the earliest Irish writings on the In King of Mysteries, Early Irish Religious Writings, is reproduced here as an aid to discussion and in hopes that others will be encouraged to further research both the book and the subject. The author of the book was an Irish Christian monk, Colmán mac Beónai, who was related to a line of Irish kings, Druids and Filidh. Carey says that the work itself seems to be drawn from the following sources: 'the monastic treatises of John Cassian (died 435) , on the sapiential books of the Old Testament and probably on native wisdom literature as well…'- The Idea of Truth

And the form of the man to be made king used to be shown to him in a dream, his shape and his description, and the manner of work that he was doing.

Class 6 - PRESERVING SHRINES
There is a specific reason why Druids study to learn what is known about the world around us. This reason is very much like why we build databases for computers and software in the modern world. Druids study and databases are constructed so that resources are available when one is attempting to simulate or emulate life in a predictive or creative manner. Stated another way, the more accurate information one has, the better model of reality one can construct.- Centers of Spirit and Schools of Learning

- The Center Of Truth And The Edge Of Uncertainty
- Truth as Law
Class 7 - NATURE'S TRUTH
Discovering a truth is a timeless instance of all times existing within one's self. I thought I could better express this idea in a tale of kingship and sovereignty:He sat on a lush green mound rising out of the surrounding plain, itself shaped like a breast of nourishment for his people who were arrayed before him. Some were there for the games and the crafts. Others came to seek his justice or a boon. Still others were there to remind him and the people of the gods and the traditions of the old ones. As he gazed on the gathering, time stood still and took him to that fireside long ago when he had been on his own quest of seeking. A seeking of truth and self it was for this king of kings and sub-kings. For at that time he was but a youth and not the leading candidate to become a king at all. His brothers all outranked him in age, in stature and in the skills of warriorship and the lore of tradition. They sat around the fire with him, sharing the quest.

Class 8 - DRUIDIC TEACHINGS
The ancient Druids had specific stories in mind when they created such Triads for themselves and their students. In this way, each Triad could serve as an index to the tales in much the same way that some consider Ogham were used to index knowledge and memories. It is a matter of debate as whether there is an Ogham - Triad link. My position and the underlying foundation of what I've uncovered in my own studies demonstrates that there is such a connection. A linkage between Triads, Ogham and tales, would fit right in with the existence of the three phrase Ogham of Morann Mac Main, CúChulainn, and Mac ind Oic. The Briatharogan (as they are called) define the qualities of past, present and future, as well as land, sea and sky. These cosmic ideas and relationships can also be extended to the three components of body, mind and spirit in a person.The three phases of body, mind, and spirit are associated with the Word Ogham of Morainn (the physical), the Word Ogham of CúChulainn (the mental), and the Word Ogham of Aonghus (the spiritual). They can also be considered as being representative of Past, Present, Future; Tradition, Experience, Inspiration; Body, Mind (in an active sense), Spirit (in the sense of higher level mental states). A judge, such as Morann was; a warrior, such as CúChulainn; and a deity, such as Mac ind Oic; would each represent a different perspective in the lives of people and the world.

Class 9 - WISDOM TEXTS
Truth was valued above all else in Celtic society and by the Druids. Their teachings were almost completely oral and it s said that little survives of them. This would not be entirely the case. The truth be told, on the arrival of Christianity and its scribes and written language, a blossoming of wisdom teachimngs was created and preserved for later days and the literate world. These are often imbedded with Druidic wisdom that have been preserved for us from the past even if they are also a mixture of Biblical and classical sources as well. The new wise people and sages of the Irish incorporated wisdom wherever they found it but combined it with uniquely Irish and traditional teachings as well. Often these texts are interpreted beyond the scope of their foreign origins to form a window into the minds and teaching of the pre-Christian Druids and sages. The words that follow are a sample and an introduction to this wisdom that speaks to us across time.- Three Wise Druids
- Morann mac Main
- Cormac mac Art
- Cú Chulainn

- Timna Chathaír Maír - The Testament of Cathair
- Old Irish Wisdom Attributed to Aldfrith of Northumbria: An Edition of Bríathra Flainn Fhína maic Ossu
- A Miscellany of Irish Proverbs
Class 10 - FINDING TRUTH
The expression 'finding one's truth' is sometimes an euphemism for dying, while 'dying' is itself an older (more Shakespearian) euphemism for having sex, Beyond these two expressions for finding truth, there is an esoteric practice that is mentioned in conjunction with both sex and death, as well as with wisdom and magical abilities in the teachings of Amergin that is popularly called the 'Cauldron of Poesy.' However it is that one finds one's truth, it is certain that where truth exists, the source of creation, life and death, as well as knowledge, is also to be found. In Judeo-Christian mythologies, all of these values and gifts are found in the Garden of Eden story of Genesis. In the Irish Druid tradition, these wonder-sources are presented in groups of tales known as Imrama and Echtraí. The Imrama are daring voyages to islands and strange lands. The Echtraí are adventures into realms of wonder and the Otherworld. In a sense these two genre are descriptions that are akin to religious experiences.- Religious Experiences

Class 11 - LOOKING BEYOND THE OBVIOUS
It's maintained by most academics that not much survived about the practices and rituals of the Druids. This point is both correct and completely wrong. It's true that there are no rituals and 'how-to' manuals penned or scribed by the Druids that have survived until today or that have been discovered through the ages. However, it is also true that much was written about the Druids by their contemporaries and also by those who survived from their era. These writers and recorders of information about the Druids include classical historians, philosophers, military leaders, Christian monks and scribes, inheriting Poets and Filidh, as well as Brehons, Seanchaí and physicians. There are volumes and volumes of information about the ancient Druids, as well as myths, traditions and artifacts from their practices of the past. In addition to that, there are currents, streams and threads in the Celtic folklore and folk practices that seem to be echoes of Druidic practices of the past. Even today we have festivals, holidays and celebrations that originated or were performed and practiced by the ancient Druids. This is what we know about the Druids from the ***outside*** through folklorists, scholars, observers and historians. There are many additional worlds and insights to be known and learned about the Druids from the ***inside*** of their practices, techniques, ideas and mind-sets.- Hiding in Plain Sight

Class 12 - UNDERSTANDING UNIVERSAL TRUTH
How does one understand a Truth so large that it is Universal? This is one of many questions that is asked, has been asked and will continue to be asked of, by and for Druids. The myriad answers to this question are varied in their scope and limited in their effectiveness by the realty experienced by those who address it. Simply put, the most universal answer is only given by a mind as large (or larger) than the Universe itself. Any more limited answer or mind will have its short comings in the ability to address all of the possibilities or the ultimate reality. The scope is simply not there in a limited mind, understanding and set of experiences. Before one gets frustrated with the impossibility of it all, there is a simple answer which resolves all of the difficulties inherent with the ripple effect of expanding knowledge and awareness. The answer is to remove the limits on mind, awareness and existence.- The Truth Makes us Naked

Chapter 13 - THE SPIRIT OF POETRY
In Patrick Ford's, The Celtic Poets, there is a story translated and retold that inspired me to present it here in my own worlds with hopes that its filidecht could work a change or two in the current surroundings. It speaks to what both newsgroups seek to discuss, the ways of Druids and their spirituality. Here is a story from the Irish traditions of the past that we would do well to embrace in today's artificial and illusory world:Senchán Torpéist was on a poetic circuit which took him to the Isle of Man. His retinue was large as befits the chief Ollamh of the Poets. His clothing was befitting his rank, the best that nobility deserved according to rank.

Class 14 – BEING AND NON-BEING
The power of truth in the poem brings us to the ultimate questions of what does it mean to exist? What is life and what is death? The answers to these questions are found in the natures of the three deities of creation, destruction and being itself. Along with these three deities are the two additional being of everything and nothing. They are the fathers and mothers of all that can be. Druids put names to these deities in the abstract and as persons. The inherent strength within these names would give a person control of everything. For that reason, the names are hidden and only attainable by those who have realized their own truth in being. In the discussion that follows we will call the first three by the familiar Irish names of An Dagda,- Grief from the Heart
