How Dare They?

5/1/2022

Have you forgotten that it is
your mind, body and spirit
that they try to enslave to their needs???

1) catholick church claim
Unam Sanctam - This is the papal bull (public decree, letters patent, or charter issued by a pope aka church law) that was issued by Pope Boniface VIII on 18 Nov 1302CE. In this ‘bull’ the dogmatic propositions on the unity of the Catholic Church are declared, all people must belong or be owned / controlled by the church to gain eternal salvation, it declares the pope as the supreme head of the Church and that all people must submit to the pope, that all people must belong to the Church to attain salvation. The ‘Unam Sanctum’ declares the temporal as well as spiritual supremacy of the pope. This in effect is a church law that gives total power to their pope over all physical and all spiritual aspects of human life i.e. the pope owns your soul...
The original ‘Unam sanctam’ document is lost, but a version of the text can be found in the registers of Boniface VIII in the Vatican Archives. Because the original ‘Unam sanctam’ document cannot be produced it is void (not valid or legally binding) and their claim could not be defended in any court of law!

Pope Boniface VIII

The Papal Bull ‘Laudibiliter’ was apparently granted by Adrian IV to Henry II to become the lord of Ireland in approx 1155-60CE. But it was only in the year 1174CE that King Henry II first produced Laudabiliter which he said he got from Pope Adrian IV, permitting him to go to and rule over Ireland. It was many years after Adrian's death that a copy of the Laudabiliter first appeared in the Expugnatio Hibernica of Giraldus Cambrensis. Giraldus claims to have seen the original and presents a copy of it in his book ‘Expugnatio Hibernica’ around the year 1188CE. This is the only known copy and I believe it to be a forgery because there was no actual original. Dimock, who edited Qiraldi Cambrensis Opera, says that De Expugnatione Hiberniae (the book by Giraldus that includes his copy of Laudibiliter) is, in great measure, rather "a poetical fiction than a prosaic truthful history”. Many of Giraldus’s claims about Ireland are pure fantasy designed to legitimise Henry II in his ‘church approved’ control of Ireland.

Paraphrased, the terms of the Bull Laudabiliter are that: The Pope grants the King of England the right to "enter and take possession of" Ireland for God's honour and the welfare of Ireland. The Irish people are to accept the King of England with all honour and obey him dutifully as their liege lord, with the exception that the rights of the churches of Ireland are to be "inviolably preserved".The Papacy and Church of Rome are to receive one penny a year from each house in Ireland.The King of England is charged to improve the habits of the people of Ireland, particularly their lives, manners and conversation. The King of England is charged to ensure that the Christian Church is adopted by the people of Ireland, and the Christian faith "planted and increased".

There is no original Laudibiliter in the vatican archives. There is only the copy in the ‘poetical fiction’ book by Giraldus. Giraldus’s book is full of lies, distorted tales and wild fantasys all designed to empower Henry II to conquer Ireland in which the church is given a great deal... one penny / year / house for doing nothing.

Because the original ‘Laudibiliter’ document cannot be produced it is void (not valid or legally binding) and the claim of every english monarch to rule over Ireland with the popes approval could not be defended in any court of law!

This happened before ‘Unum sanctum’. But until the ‘Unam sanctam’ and the ‘Laudabiliter’ are successfully challenged in a court of law they have legal standing and thereby imperialism displaces indigenous practices.
Con Connor, senior Ard Druí /i\ with the Celtic Druid Temple challenged their odious imperial law system on the Hill of Tara at High Noon 23rd of April 2016 - see the video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjGZ_Ll0btQ and read the essays at

2) big pharma seeks total ownership
The weaponised flu that is currently being used used to terrorise the people of the world has multiple agendas. One of these is the claim of many ‘axeene’s’ to cure it but it is repeatedly demonstrated that being ‘axed’ does not stop you getting the engineered long term health problem... But - included in their ‘axeene’ is rDNA. rDNA is Recombinant DNA, this is a technology that uses enzymes to cut and paste together DNA sequences of interest to big pharma. By interest you may understand that ownership and control and profit to big pharma are meant. Effectively they make up new DNA to replace the natural immune human system. This means that it is no longer ‘your DNA’ but instead big pharma can claim ownership...

All mRNA vaccines are types of vaccines that use copies of molecules called messenger RNA (mRNA) to produce a synthetic (unnatural) immune response. The vaccine delivers molecules of commercially produced mRNA into human immune cells and thereby changes ownership right from you to big pharma. This designed mRNA becomes a blueprint to build foreign (unnatural) protein that they claim would normally be produced by a virus. These unnatural protein molecules are claimed to stimulate an adaptive immune response that teaches the body to identify and destroy the corresponding virus.

The first human clinical trial using ex vivo dendritic cells transfected with mRNA encoding tumor antigens (therapeutic cancer mRNA vaccine) was started in 2001. Four years later, the successful use of modified nucleosides as a method to transport mRNA inside cells without setting off the body's defence system was reported. Clinical trial results of an mRNA vaccine directly injected into the body against cancer cells were reported in 2008. This is all about unnatural experimental mutation of the natural DNA in people and it is becoming very obvious that it is not a cure for anything as many of the vaccinated are catching the disease anyway and many are dying from it.

Recombinant DNA or rDNA is a technology that uses enzymes to cut and paste together DNA sequences and Messenger RNA or mRNA vaccines force cells to make a protein that will trigger an immune response. For any vaccine to be successful, certain quantities of mRNA must be taken. But this is not easy - the mRNA molecules are too large to get through the cell membrane and because they carry a negative charge just like the cell membrane does they simply reject each other in the same way that two magnets repulse each other. mRNA is easily degraded by skin and blood... The double defence system of our healthy immune system against such industrial medications should have informed all scientists that their technology is against the natural world order, they obviously ignored this and chose money instead. No ethics or morals, no love and no respect for natural health - these scientists should all be named and brought to justice in the courts of human opinion and then stripped of all assets they accumulated by deliberately doing wrong.

From the tech speak above you can see why they need to keep on ‘jabbing’ as it is now referred to. They know where their synthetic medication policy is going and they know that it is wrong too. In the long term with enough of their forced medicine in a human body they can lay claim to ownership of your unique but now modified ‘blueprint’ because they have got enough of their muck inserted in you.

This violates your rights in so many ways, it interferes with your life span and reproduction potential - it breaks our inalienable fundamental rights as guaranteed in Bunreacht na hÉireann and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), adopted by the UN General Assembly in 1948. It contravenes the Principles of International Law Recognized in the Charter of the Nüremberg Tribunal and in the Judgment of the Tribunal, 1950.

But you have rights if stand up and exercise those rights. Bigpharma and the governments of the world all seek to reduce / remove your rights through fear, coercion and bullying tactics. If you want more info on our Celtic Druid Temple, Indigenous Religion of Éire Policy Statement and to know how to politely decline all or any unnatural medications please see - https://www.celticdruidtemple.com/membershipcards.html

Join us in the Celtic Druid Temple, the Indigenous Religion of Éire and get an ID card.

All the information about the ID card and how to use it to prove your chosen indigenous religion and claim religious exemption is also freely available - people may simply use that info if they wish...

3) deep state opinions as the only truth
The main stream media is rigged to support the plans of those who wish to rule over the people instead of serving the best interests of the people. The tv, radio and newspapers provide state approved opinions for their viewers, listeners and readers. Most people are habitual in that they will usually get the same media i.e. the same paper every day or every week and so on. RTE is a state controlled but funded by the people media visual and audio programming system. RTE is the Irish version of George Orwell’s ‘Big Brother’.

It has multiple distractions from what is really going on in Ireland and across the world with soap operas, football and disaster stories of pop stars etc. It is part of the deep state resource and does not serve the people any more. Maybe it did once, a long time ago but it no longer helps us.

It does not show how to gain food or fuel or shelter abundance - instead it only shows food shortages, bird flu disasters etc and tries to criminalise turf cutting and burning by the indigenous people of the land and reports homelessness ignoring the huge volume of empty houses available. RTE selectively ignores claims by the senior garda that the gardai at the violent and unlawful eviction at Falsk 11-12-2018 did not witness any criminal activity despite the evidence of a video to the contrary (we hold a copy). RTE as national broadcaster (paid for by the people) did not make any fuss about having a man who swore an oath to serve his queen suddenly become the senior garda in Ireland. No questions were asked - did he un-swear his oath to the queen? did he take the garda oath? You know this list of RTE not serving the people is very long, everyone has their own unique recall of ‘that is not true’...

It is easy to fix this one: do not pay the tv licence fee, get rid of your tv or tv’s, turn off the fascist radio jocks who insult people who hold their own opinions, only get free newspapers for lining the pigeon shed, lighting turf and wood fires in your homes etc etc.

We cannot expect that the political puppets that the deep state chose to perform for us will fix any thing as their positions of power depend on them preserving their system, the bigpharma vaccines are not healing us or strengthening our immune systems and at the same time they seek to destroy our personal sovereignty and almost all media is ‘smoke and mirror’ distractions from what is going on...

But you can chose another path...

Notice to CDA - No approval or support for your group

NOTICE 01/12/2021
To the Secretariat of CDA

You are hereby instructed to remove the following direct or indirect references from the CDA website known as https://celticdruidalliance.wixsite.com/celtic-alliance that refer to the Celtic Druid Temple that imply our approval or support for your group from your public webpage immediately. You may not use references to the Celtic Druid Temple that imply authenticity or validation now or in the future to promote your activities.

This NOTICE includes and requires you to remove:

1. Your currently online statement that was originally written by Con Connor - “The Celtic Druid Alliance had its inaugural gathering at Temple Crom in the west of Ireland on the 22/23 September 2016. The Celtic Druid Alliance is a European based global organisation hosting a platform for compliance with the Primordial Tradition. It is founded on integrating the true principles of Love and Light and is open to include all beings and ritual gatherings that truly aspire to a connection with a Celtic appreciation of the Primordial Tradition. The Celtic Druid Alliance has an Inner Council whose members are senior Celtic Druids within its membership organisations.”

This is still seen at https://celticdruidalliance.wixsite.com/celtic-alliance

Note: In the NOTICE dated 28/11/2021, you were formally instructed to remove all written contributions by Con Connor from your website known as https://celticdruidalliance.wixsite.com/celtic-alliance.

There is no longer any true ‘alliance’ after the expulsion of one of the founders when Denis Guillio declared in his accusation - “Pour la simple raison à mon sens notre Tradition ne peut être galvaudée* tel que le fait l'Obod”. (* treacherous word). Meaning - “For the simple reason, in my opinion, our Tradition cannot be ‘soiled, sullied, stained or contaminated*’ as Obod does”. This bizarre and unsubstantiated accusation by Denis Guillo did not use established channels to settle disputes as agreed by Denis Guillio and Joaquin Punto and it quickly resulted in Joaquim Pinto pronouncing sentence (without consulting his two support guardians as he was required to and expelling Con Connor and the Celtic Druid Temple from your group. His diversionary tactic was to demand that I should not have a Patreon page to share my work on but his real purpose was to limit or restrict my public success. All this was done with total disregard for the Oath, Aims and Roles of your group which have since been taken off line as it is now abundantly clear that they did not truly apply to many members of your group.

2. Your cultural misappropriation of an Irish welcome ‘as Gaelige’ as first written on your website by Con Connor - “Tá failte romhat”

This is still shown twice at https://celticdruidalliance.wixsite.com/celtic-alliance/official-annoucements
Note: In the NOTICE dated 28/11/2021, you were formally instructed to remove all written contributions by Con Connor from the CDA website known as https://celticdruidalliance.wixsite.com/celtic-alliance.

Cultural misappropriation of a traditional welcome greeting from our Gaelic culture by your foreign culture that might imply to others that your group has authenticity or validation by our Irish group now or in the future to promote your activities is a form of ‘culture theft or hate crime’.

3. Your online claim below that will in the future be seen as implying ongoing authenticity or validation for your group by the Celtic Druid Temple is a deliberate misrepresentation of truth.

“The first edition took place on 23rd to 25th of September 2016 at Temple Crom, Co. Roscommon in the Sovereign Republic of Ireland.”
https://celticdruidalliance.wixsite.com/celtic-alliance/gatherings
Note: In the NOTICE dated 28/11/2021, you were formally instructed to remove all written contributions by or references to Con Connor from your group website known as https://celticdruidalliance.wixsite.com/celtic-alliance. Recent dishonesty by Denis Guillo and Joaqium Pinto demonstrates that your group does not honour its agreements. Consequently, your group no longer has permission to display any link, script or foundation claims that make mention of the Celtic Druid Temple from the date of this NOTICE.

4. Your group’s online presence makes claims of being both ‘Celtic’ and ‘Druid’. Yet your leader, Denis Giullo shows on his website that his lineage or ‘Notre filiation’ (or direct translation by google – ‘our parentage’) starts with the freemason John Toland followed by the notorious opium addict and forger, the fake druid freemason known as Iolo Morganwg.

https://clairierebellovaque.webnode.fr/a-propos-de-nous/
Note: Obod uses the masonic philosophy's of Toland and the opium inspired fantasy's of Morganwg but these notions cannot be seen as Celtic or Druidic. Just like electricians are not heart surgeons – anyone pretending that freemasons are Celtic Druids are telling a lie. This shows that Denis Gullio is using the same misrepresentation technique that is also used by obod. There are two claims by obod for their lineage 1) a group founded in England in 1717 by the freemason John Toland and 2) to the freemason Henry Hurle in England in 1781. Denis Guillo or his group Collège du Chaudron des Druides cannot be accepted or recognised as Celtic or Druidic in any way if their claim of lineage goes back to the same freemasons as obod. Denis Gullio initiated Joaquim Pinto into the same freemason tradition of fake druids as obod and Pinto in turn may have done this to others.

The original request by Guillio and Pinto to me Con Connor in 2016 to set up and lead a new group on pure Celtic lines was seen by me firstly as respect but also as a sign that they wished to make a true connection to the real Celtic Path. I refused to lead but instead worked with them to create an alliance but they have both worked together to evade their agreements with me. The Aims, Oath and Roles in that alliance were crafted to show them the way back to a Celtic Path but it is clear now that they are locked into a hierarchy lineage from freemasonry. I tried but there is no Celtic Druid Alliance.

Your group may not use the term ‘Celtic Druid Alliance’ with truth or honour because your group covertly holds on so tightly to freemasonic hierarchical principles. Your group stands in dishonour for cultural misappropriation alongside obod.

Failure to comply with this NOTICE will have consequences.

CDT out of cda – CLOSURE

29/11/2021

Some feedback on recent political manipulations...

Hi Con and Niamh!
I read your article. I was not unhappy or sad. On the contrary, I feel that one path has ended and another must begin.
Every being has a fire, a glow within. And that fire, that glow tends to group with other fires, other similar glows, at least until one of them fades or ceases to identify with. Your alliance had a purpose. And that purpose no longer makes sense. Fires must move apart, otherwise one of them will end up extinguishing the other. And I'm glad it's you who's leaving.
You have no idea how honoured I feel to have met you both. Your fire, your passion for what it means to be and live the Celtic culture. The contagious energy and strength that emanates from you and Niamh is something I will never forget. It is etched into my being.
If I thank the alliance for anything it is this, to have had the opportunity for you to have crossed my path. It was very important to me.
With the other members of the alliance... it was different... they are more human and more susceptible to human traits. I don't know if I make myself clear.
I know what it is to be in the shoes of a druid. I have lived and been one. In troubled times. I know the importance of leading people, of guiding beings who are sometimes too human. I remember having to struggle with living in times of change and having to adapt and help others adapt.
Your effort, that of Niamh, Karl, John and so many others around you, is admirable and beautiful to see. The lack of consideration from others shows not only the success of your struggle to walk a difficult path in these times so contrary to what is known to be right at heart, as well as the lack of identification from others.
I implore you, let nothing and no one extinguish your fire, your passion and your brilliance. Even being far away, I still feel it and need to know that it shines and will continue to shine from year to year. Everything that threatens your Being and Living does not need to be around you. And no one can tell you what you can or should do. It is your path, no one else's.
Thank you for being there.
(Name is being kept Private)

Hi, Con. This fragmentation, however, is sad and weird, for i paid for courses back in 2011/2012, for the, at the time Druidic Council (Conselho Druídico). Also true is that i paid for my two first courses with Joaquim, and the third i said i had no means of paying, but he said that i could attend without fee
[I sent - great - thanks. No judgement from me. Just telling the truth of those who falsely accused and convicted and sentenced me with out right to reply.]
You're always welcome, Con.
(Name is being kept Private)

Thanks Con & Niamh for this information I did not have. And very sorry our first exchanges are in these conditions. I will here express only my personal point of view and feelings (and in any case the one of my grove in southwestern of France, and even less the one of the ****** groves organisation). I fully understand the idea of "no money" in druidism because of many drifts we've seen before and also because knowledge should ideally be free. But I must admit that personnally I often wonder if this rule if not too much manichean : what about people working full-time in the tradition ? what about people whose job is being a therapist (or any job in which our spirituality also express itself, ie artist, therapist and so on...) ? Sincerely I don't have the answer yet... except I feel the rule may be too much manichean. Take care of you.
[I sent - Hi (Name is being kept Private), thank you for sharing your thoughts. The idea of no money for druid teachings has its roots in the time when communities provided all the needs of their druids. In ancient Ireland the Celtic clans simply built homes for newlyweds... the unpaid druid would advise on safe locations for these new homes avoiding the fairy / dragon path etc. That society did not even have money! Grá Con]
Not especially in ancient Ireland but also in chamanism and other traditions including also education of children, healings, and other functions. But I feel the modern "no money" rule is more due to people working full-time in non-druidic jobs and non-therapists jobs (exaggerating a lot I would say : "druids 4 or 8 times a year") who can easily decide a "non money" rule.
(Name is being kept Private)

Thats quite a sad development. I was looking forward to come back to Ireland this summer. I never heard Denis talk about all that before though.
(Name is being kept Private)

If you yourself place no value on the knowledge you have gained over the years and show to others seeking that knowledge that you do not value it, then don't be surprised if they also place no value on that knowledge imparted to them.
By the way wife here says it's a simple exchange of energies. Exchanging payment for knowledge is also an exchange of energies.
(Name is being kept Private)

very pertinent
(Name is being kept Private)

I want to share a message of support for you and Con. Yesterday, I saw a post on Facebook about the recent situation that happened with CDA. So, I felt it was a good time to open up about something that happened on my journey and explain how it relates...
(edit - personal details)
Long story short, when I found Celtic Druid Temple and read everything on your web site, I knew CDT was genuinely teaching ancient knowledge and had no secret agenda. I had even found OBOD first and something didn't feel right. You keep confirming the things I was seeing and I'm finally realizing it wasn't crazy. And it makes sense that I'm so careful about my sources now, even though many different paths could be beneficial. The problem today is accessing knowledge without being pushed into fear by those with bad intentions.

On the subject of paying for courses, this is something I very much appreciate being able to do. Reciprocity is important and I don't want the knowledge for free, because I want you to be supported in the work you're doing. Paying for membership and for courses just makes sense - it would be more costly to be shipping gifts around the world. There's less waste this way and allows you to allocate funds in the best way for CDT. I think we have to consider that we need teachers who focus their time on their spiritual work and are financially supported enough to do that. So, I just wanted to say I believe in what you're doing and that my perspective as a student is very different from those who disapproved.
Grá agus solas
(Name is being kept Private)

With love, respect and admiration for you, Ard Druí Con, and the important work you, and the Celtic Druid Temple do. You will always have my unequivocal support
(Name is being kept Private)

I fully support you Con and CDT. Grá agus solas
(Name is being kept Private)

Wow, shocking behaviour. Absolutely agree and support you Con Niamh Connor . Grá agus solas.
(Name is being kept Private)

This is all very sad
(Name is being kept Private)

From me, Con Connor - On a personal note - maybe Denis should drink less and learn to tame his ego and enjoy the success of others instead of sneaking around in the shadows trying to destroy with insult and slander. Maybe Joaquim should grow a pair and stand with truth and dignity instead of protecting his initiator who is obviously using dark forces on the innocent. Maybe CDA should remove all of the written contribution that I have made by their request from their website and see what is left...
/i\ Con

All,
I agree with the attached statement, how Con does his work is no business of any other organization. Con is both living and walking the path, it is not a plaything for him to dress up at the weekend, I am happy for the letter to be sent to the CDA.
Grá
/i\ Frank

Hi Con,
I have read the draft and am happy to give my approval to send it to CDA and to publish it as a blog on the CDT website. The actions of the Duty Guardian Joaquim and the retired Guardian Denis show the utmost contempt for the Alliance; it's oaths, it's aims and it's hopes. Joaquim acted as if the alliance was a hierarchy, he had no respect for the role of the support guardians, he was in full knowledge of a developing problem, he received communications from members of the alliance and kept them secret from me and the second support guardian, Karl. Joaquim did not honour the protocol of the role of the Guardian instead he obeyed the will of Denis. I am happy that we are removing ourselves from people who act with such dishonesty and lack of honour.
Grá
/i\ Niamh Connor

Hi Con,
I have read the paper and am ok with it. I am quite taken aback by the situation. I had thought Denis and Joaquim had more integrity. Guess I was wrong.
Grá agus Solas
/i\ John

Hello Con,
I've read your text and for me it's okay. Just for your information: you know I thought I could maybe help to solve the problems, but unfortunately I didn't know that Joaquim informed me when everything was over. On a note from me he answered - in portugese. I take this for a personal disdain and absolutely unworthy for a druid that had called me ‘brother’ even two days earlier. No doubt that I'm deeply disappointed about this development. I instantly deleted my fb account, I'll forget these strange guys instantly.

Maybe universe has told us that there's enough to do in our smaller worlds, we won't have enough power to solve the world's problems before things concerning our friends around us here.
Grá agus solas

END

But from https://celticdruidalliance.wixsite.com/celtic-alliance/gatherings on the 29th Nov 2021 - we see a false claim being made -

“Our third Gathering will take place from 11th to 14th August 2022 and will again be based in Ireland. More information will be posted soon on this site and also on the "Friends of Celtic Druid Alliance" page on Facebook.”

My comment -
I have advised them that they have no welcome here and to clean up their mess and to stop making false claims.

I give my love and gratitude for those who have shown support to me by email, message, ‘likes’ and by phone at this difficult time. For those who attacked me I say exactly what “Two Lads Say” in the above graphic. To all who may read this report - always know that your Celtic Path to the Primordial Tradition exists for you regardless of the smog, fog and layers of darkness that others may try to put over it – it is your Celtic Path, believe in it, look for it, find it and walk it.

Samhain 2021 Report from a Seer

27/11/2021

0 Comments

An unedited email from a friend and member of CDT who has attended at ceremony on Tara and here at Temple Crom for many years.

                                                   ***

Unable to attend the Samhain ceremony on Tara being held by Red John, as just home from work late and had been feeling a bit poorly - I hopped into bed just about 7pm.

Closed my eyes in the darkness and shortly after opened my eyes and I was on the hill of Tara. I was looking through the eyes of someone else. Someone who was incredibly full of life, that had a joyous energy. Someone who was outside the scale of a normal person. Someone who moved incredibly quickly and seemed not to be touching the ground, yes, almost as if they were flying.

They moved in and out amongst the people walking up the 'Hill' and round and over their heads at an incredible rate, so I can only assume they were flying. All the time this being was laughing with joy and greeting all the people ascending the hill, delighted.. no ecstatic would be a better description at the people coming to take part.

The loud booming belly laughs while greeting everyone coming up to ceremony was moving the energy outwards in ripples I could almost feel. The moving from person to person welcoming them as they made their way up the hill, dare I say it, almost reminded me of the energy of an enormous puppy greeting everyone. I could see the long transparent body weaving in and out between the people as if it were a smokey transparent ribbon.

As I was at the end of a long tiring day and feeling a bit poorly I found it difficult to keep up with the beings energy, and I asked him if we could sit down. The best way I could describe the 'sitting down' was as if we landed. Towards the East and about 15 ft back from the circle of gathered friends. Sitting down the same way a puppy would sit down, on it's bum, but still towering about 10 - 15 ft above the heads of those gathered in the circle.

The ceremony had begun but I was not going to hear the words as I went over to deep sleep. My remaining memory was of the great joy of the being at everyone coming to the ' Hill' to keep the energy alive.

                                                  ***

My comment-
The Seers name etc is private, there is nothing in it for the Seer other than sharing to inspire others. His Seeing probably included much more detail and information but it must be said - “Well Done, and thank you for sharing this vision”. Such Seeing is only possible from a quiet mind with restrained ego and thinking in neutral mode. No banging of drums, no drink or drugs - just a desire to be on Tara at Samhain.

The picture are of Acorns harvested by /i\ Red John on the edge of the Sloping Trenches on Tara. These seeds are now 8 year old Oak trees planted in the Woodland here at the Celtic Druid Temple. In the pictures the Acorns sit in a carved wooden plate made from Oak that sits on top of a ancient Bog Oak stump in the Outer Temple in front of Temple Crom.

                                 From little Acorns great Oak Trees grow
                                 From a quiet mind we can see with Spirit
                                 From sharing visions we can inspire many

Standing in Truth - CDT out of CDA

25/11/2021

0 Comments

When a wrong is committed against you there are many options and ways to return to harmony. When the wrong is premeditated and is not acknowledged by everyone involved then the process of restoration to harmony can become very difficult, undesirable or even abhorrent. Within even a short time it can become clear that it is not possible to restore harmony to the relationships that once existed. In the situation outlined below I speak my truth with the intention of reaffirming my good name and the good name of the Celtic Druid Temple.

If anyone reading this disagrees with any of the factual points I make in this paper and can provide evidence to the contrary then I welcome your communication to the following email address info@celticdruidtemple.com If I do not receive any such communication by the end of 2021 I will know that the truth stands and that I too stand secure in my truth, honour and respect in that I have protected the integrity of Celtic Druid Temple, its Druí and its members.

Celtic Druid Temple (CDT) is a regulated charity recognised by the Irish state as the Indigenous Religion of Ireland RCN20106003. CDT does not and never could charge for any courses as it is a religious charity and not an educational facility. CDT funds are generated only by membership and by donations – this pays CDT overheads running costs repairs phone tools and fuel for mower, strimmer for 16 acres of woodland upkeep etc. and Public Liability insurance etc. Our CDT accounts are published online every year.

I Con, as Ireland’s Druidschool, charge for the courses I facilitate which includes the Slí an Druí online course, our Celtic Spirituality Weekend etc. with overnight accommodation, top quality food, cotún etc. Running costs include clean bed linen, fuel for Tigín, Temple and Hemp Hall, contribution towards maintenance for our off grid sewerage system and our off grid electricity system, cleaning and so on. I also do lots without charge...

I Con Connor on behalf of CDT was a founding member of the Celtic Druid Alliance (CDA). Joaquim Pinto from a Portuguese druid group and Denis Guillio from a French druid group both approached me and asked me to help set up and be the leader of a new european based international grouping of druids.

I said No, but that I would help set up such a group if we could agree a system to prevent any hierarchy from forming or any individual from controlling or any single expression (religion) from becoming the dominant version - this was all agreed and written down on the CDA website as the Aims, Oath and Role of the Guardians, I have a full copies on file. This was all easily agreed to and I have clear pictures of that agreement that was signed in blue ink by Denis, Joaquim and I as CDA was set up in 2016. It was decided to call this group the Celtic Druid Alliance to show that it is different to the masonic based obod group who present as druids. Denis was the caretaker duty guardian for the first few months until our formal 1st gathering here at the Celtic Druid Temple in Fomhár 2016 when I was appointed as duty guardian with Denis and Joaquim as support guardians until 2019. In 2019 I handed the responsibility of duty guardian over to Joaquim at our 2nd CDA gathering in Portugal when Joaquim appointed Karl and Niamh as his two support guardians. The duty guardian is required to consult with the two support guardians on all matters that affect CDA. Not after the decision is made but before any decision could be made. When this became highly important - Joaquim acted in dishonour.

It was late in the evening of the 14th of November 2021 when Denis Guillo (of http://clairierebellovaque.webnode.fr/) in a private fb msg to me - wrongly accused and judged CDT to be like obod. This is a calculated and grievous insult where Denis seems to think that CDT and I, Con are the same thing and that CDT/I are treacherous to the Celtic Druid Alliance. This happened shortly after I had posted an info graphic about my new Patreon page (shown above) on my personal fb page and the CDT fb page - Denis responded with an ‘angry face emoji’ and I asked him why he did that. Denis responded “Pour la simple raison à mon sens notre Tradition ne peut être galvaudée* tel que le fait l'Obod”. (* treacherous word)

I read this (google translater) to mean “For the simple reason, in my opinion, our Tradition cannot be ‘soiled, sullied, stained or contaminated*’ as Obod does”. It was only later on in the fb ‘msg’ing that Denis said that CDT (meaning I, Con) should not charge money for any of the work I do as a full time Celtic Druid that I began to get clarity of what he was really accusing me/CDT of. This I now believe, was what he had long been saying in the shadows to members of other groups in CDA before he ‘angry faced’ my Patreon post. Next I sent many messages to Denis including - "I suggest that you either present your judgement and condemnation of me to the Duty Guardian of CDA for further action or withdraw and remove your dislike comment on my post about my new Patreon page immediately”. Denis then removed the ‘angry face emoji’ from my personal fb pg, but he did not present his “judgement and condemnation of me to the Duty Guardian of CDA for further action”.

Denis then said “De plus le CDA vous êtes majoritaire donc quel procès sinon le mien, mais cette fraternité pour moi n'existe plus.” I read this (using google translator) to mean “In addition the CDA you are in the majority so what trial if not mine, but this fraternity for me no longer exists.” How could Denis be on trial by CDA if he had already left CDA? In reality - Denis had already put me / CDT on trial and convicted and sentenced me with his shadow subterfuge where I was not allowed any opportunity of defence. This was his power play for sympathy from his initiated followers because if it was true then he should have left CDA by now if he was really that offended. He never brought his concern about my income from teaching into the light because he had agreed that he or anyone else had no right to do so when we set up CDA in 2016, so instead he used subterfuge. Be aware that Denis claims lineage from the fake druid John Toland who was a freemason and that he does the laying on of hands to transmit that lineage to his students which include Joaquim... This lineage transmission was casually suggested to me in 2016 but I politely declined as I stand in my own truth.

I asked Joaquim (http://www.atdlusitana.org/ current duty guardian in 2019-2022) to help sort this out. Denis had chosen a tricky confrontational method to bring his issue up only after he had organised his initiated members of CDA to agree in principle with his plan. Joaquim’s fb msg response to me showed that the CDA member’s decision of prejudgement, conviction and sentence of CDT/me was already made when he msg’ed me saying -
“I was receiving the same expressions of displeasure from all the French and Brazilian assemblies, which are considering leaving the CDA if it is not implemented as a principle not to charge for teachings or for courses that lead to a druidic degree.”
and
“And that they won't participate in the 2022 Gathering if this situation continues.”
and
“1)- Declare the extinction of the CDA, since almost all the groups will leave, including ATDL that in council also decided to leave (note that during my term as DG I do not participate in the ATDL Council, for reasons of impartiality; 2) - Declare the exclusion of the CDT from membership of the CDA or accept a request for the exclusion of the CDT from membership of the CDA; 3)... (suggestions) END.

This was an all of a sudden surprise to me but on reflection it looks like traditional political manipulation of the gullible as part of a covert set up. Joaquim as duty guardian was obliged to but did not consult with the two CDA support guardians during this judgement/sentencing process. The accusation, judgement and sentence that Denis designed had been made and delivered to CDT/me by Joaquim without any consultation with Karl and Niamh the two current support guardians or with Red John who is a CDA council member. This Denis ‘power-play’ with Joaquim’s ‘initiated obedience’ is like the classic twisted political plot of a cheap tv movie.

I was charging for some of my work as a Celtic Druid long before Denis and Joaquim approached me to set up this group in 2016. From my point of view my adding a Patreon page as an income stream does not require anyone's approval except that of the Patrons who happily support my work on Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/celticpathwork

Joaquim as duty guardian only contacted Karl and Niamh (his two support guardians) after the decision of the Denis lineage was made looking for their (Karl and Niamh) input. This is a sham because Joaquim tried this classic pretend trick after the accusation, trial and sentence for CDT/me was already made.

Denis ignored the Aims of Celtic Druid Alliance, Oath for the Guardians and Role of the Guardians of which he was a co-founder and the Aims, Oath and Roles all have his unreserved approval by his signature. If he suddenly had a problem with me then he knew of the agreed methods to air his discontent. Joaquim (current duty guardian) has also ignored the Aims of Celtic Druid Alliance, Oath for the Guardians and Role of the Guardians of which he was a co-founder and his signature is beside mine and Denis’s signatures. Joaquim shows absolute unreserved support for his initiator into the Toland Freemasonic ‘Druid’ lineage. I have a picture of the signatures of Denis and Joaquim where they both agreed to honour the CDA Aims, Oath and Roles that they have now both clearly dishonoured.

Discussions within the senior Druí of CDT say there is no problem for me to receive income from my work as a Celtic Druid. Our CDT council also says that if CDT was not already thrown out of CDA then we should quickly leave and wash and dry all the CDA dirty laundry in public.

On a personal note - maybe Denis should drink less and learn to tame his ego and enjoy the success of others instead of sneaking around in the shadows trying to destroy with insult and slander. Maybe Joaquim should grow a pair and stand with truth and dignity instead of protecting his initiator who is obviously using dark forces on the innocent. Maybe CDA should remove all of the written contribution that I have made by their request from their website and see what is left...

I asked the senior Druí of the Celtic Druid Temple for their opinion and support for going public with this paper. The following emails show full support for publishing this position paper on recent events in CDA from the senior Druí in the Celtic Druid Temple.

All,
I agree with the attached statement, how Con does his work is no business of any other organization. Con is both living and walking the path, it is not a plaything for him to dress up at the weekend, I am happy for the letter to be sent to the CDA.

Hi Con,
I have read the draft and am happy to give my approval to send it to CDA and to publish it as a blog on the CDT website. The actions of the Duty Guardian Joaquim and the retired Guardian Denis show the utmost contempt for the Alliance; it's oaths, it's aims and it's hopes. Joaquim acted as if the alliance was a hierarchy, he had no respect for the role of the support guardians, he was in full knowledge of a developing problem, he received communications from members of the alliance and kept them secret from me and the second support guardian, Karl. Joaquim did not honour the protocol of the role of the Guardian instead he obeyed the will of Denis. I am happy that we are removing ourselves from people who act with such dishonesty and lack of honour.

Hi Con,
I have read the paper and am ok with it. I am quite taken aback by the situation. I had thought Denis and Joaquim had more integrity. Guess I was wrong.

Hello Con,
I've read your text and for me it's okay. Just for your information: you know I thought I could maybe help to solve the problems, but unfortunately I didn't know that Joaquim informed me when everything was over. On a note from me he answered - in portugese. I take this for a personal disdain and absolutely unworthy for a druid that had called me ‘brother’ even two days earlier. No doubt that I'm deeply disappointed about this development. I instantly deleted my fb account, I'll forget these strange guys instantly.

Maybe universe has told us that there's enough to do in our smaller worlds, we won't have enough power to solve the world's problems before things concerning our friends around us here.

Druí Fasach Tionscnaimh Samhain 2021

7/11/2021

I am very happy to announce the Initiations of two Druí Daltaí (student druids) to be now seen as Druí Fasach (Druids of Knowledge). On the Dark Moon of Samhain 2021 which is our Irish Celtic New Year, Druí Garlis and Druí Cait both received the Celtic Druid Temple Cotún Badge. The Cotún is the purple wrap coat and the leather badge is the triple spiral over three leaves (Hazel, Oak and Holly = Coll, Dara agus Tinne = CDT) with their Druí names carved into it in OgamNua.

They both sewed the leather badge onto their own cotton Cotún in a clockwise direction and then they sewed a copper triple spiral above that badge. Druí /i\ Garlis and Druí /i\ Cait stand either side of their main teacher Ard Druí /i\ Con. Both Ard Druí /i\ Red John and Ard Druí /i\ Niamh were involved in the guidance and mentorship of these two Pathwalkers and they both approve of their initiations as Druí Fasach.

They have dedicated much time and effort to finding their own Celtic Path with a focus on the magic of personal knowledge and personal experience of the Three Realms, Three Cauldrons and True Time. Both have assisted and led public Full Moon ceremonies here at Temple Crom and at Tara. We hope they will soon facilitate public Full Moon ceremonies at their own chosen temples. More on this later. They have also assisted at Celtic Pagan Handfastings and Last Rites and will very soon be added to the state register of approved Solemnisers to facilitate at 'legal' or state recognised weddings.

The senior Ard Druí at the Celtic Druid Temple wish the two new Druí Fasach much love, light and laughter as they walk their chosen path of service to the ever growing Celtic Pagan Community.

Happy Celtic New Year November 15th

11/11/2020

The Dark Moon of Samhain is on Sunday 15th of November 2020 – when the Bright star Tlachtga, the Sun and the invisible Moon all set in the west at the same time. To help explain this two are shown here

1) the alignment of the Star, Sun, Moon and Earth from a side view and
2) the direct view as if from Tara showing the alignment of the Star, Sun, Moon to the Earth as they set together on the west horizon.

The ancient druí were astronomers and they studied the movements of the 'heavenly bodies' with a focus on special events. The helical setting of the Bright Star we call Tlachtga (Antares in Scorpio) is one of those special events as the Star gets to shine briefly just after the Sun sets and then it too disappears below the horizon. The energy / light from the Star goes around the Sun and their combined energy goes around the Dark Moon – each 'goes around' increases the vibration / frequency and their combined triple energies make land at Tlachtga at the edge of dusk.

Due to prevailing circumstances we will not hold our open public traditional Celtic New Year Pilgrimage Gathering in 2020. In its place we suggest two options for individual pilgrimage to a “Meeting place of the Three Realms” close to where each of us live.
1) For those who can get out to the seaside, a lake or a river at sunset on Sunday 15th of November 2020; your pilgrimage is to a “Meeting place of the Three Realms” do your triple blessings before the darkness is total and say the goddess's name TLACHTGA and her three son's MUACH, CUMMA, DOIRB out loud. Light a candle in a lantern and declare 'happy new year'.

2) If getting to the seaside etc is not possible for you – then assemble a bowl of water, a rock and a feather / leaf – put the rock in the water and the feather / leaf on top – this is a miniature “Meeting place of the Three Realms” - do your triple blessings before the darkness is total and say the goddess's name TLACHTGA and her three son's MUACH, CUMMA, DOIRB out loud. Light a candle in a lantern and declare 'happy new year'.

From all of us here at Temple Crom; happy Celtic New Year! May all the Gods inspire you to walk your own true Path.
