Welcome!

Julie Brett: I have followed a pagan path for the last fourteen years, but have always had an affinity for the spiritual and for nature. After learning about green witchcraft and following this path for many years, I found Druidry in 2007 while living in Glastonbury in England. I studied with a mentor from the British Druid Order and was initiated at both Avebury and Stonehenge in the Bardic grade in the same year. After returning to Australia in early 2008 I began the group Druids Down Under and have been working on researching the unique aspects of being a Druid or a Pagan in the Australian environment. During the formation of Druids Down Under I was also studying comparative religion and anthropology at Sydney University. Druids Down Under is now growing steadily with a strong facebook discussion and networking group and a small group in Sydney which holds social gatherings and workshops.
