Druidry, sometimes termed Druidism, is a modern spiritual or religious movement that promotes the cultivation of honourable relationships with the physical landscapes, flora, fauna, and diverse peoples of the world, as well as with nature deities, and spirits of nature and place. Theological beliefs among modern Druids are diverse; however, all modern Druids venerate the divine essence of nature. Druidry traces back to the ancient Celtic peoples and Celtic paganism.
