NOD News

Due to vacation, the webmaster and membership administration departments will not be available until July 25. Any questions sent to these departments will be handled afterwards.

Thank you for your understanding and have a great Summer!

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.

We are happy to announce that the specialisation course "Becoming Aware" is available as of today to our upgraded members. This course had been closed down in the past due to lack of mentorship, but is now reopened.

The Becoming Aware Course is designed to bring you awareness of the world around you by simply re-learning how to use the senses and how to listen to the messages they bring. This course is about You. It is about honing in on who you are and where you are by listening, seeing, smelling, touching and tasting. 

You can enrol in this course in the usual way: go to the menu "Druid College" and then "List of Courses". In the "Course Categories" dropdown-menu, select "Specialisation Courses", and then scroll down until you find "Becoming Aware Course". Click on "JOIN COURSE" on the right, fill out the application form, and follow the instructions you will receive by e-mail.

If you are interested in taking this course, but you are not an upgraded member, you can find more information about upgrading your account at this link:
