Earthshine Grove

A Druid Grove in the Chilterns of South Buckinghamshire, generally meeting around Coombe Hill, near Wendover.

We honour the Earth. Mother Goddess and provider of all things. She is well known by her Greek name, Gaia, but in the Celtic tradition, she is represented by many aspects.

We honour the Earth God, Cernunnos. Father of Creation. Who works with the Goddess to cover the Earth with creatures and vegetation.

The Earthshine Grove was conceived of during Lughnasa 2008. There was a call for a more dedicated form of Druidic ritual and, once this was recognised, all things seemed to slot into place.

Earthshine, the light from the Sun-lit Earth reflected in the dark side of the Moon. Earthshine represents the combined masculine and feminine energies of Earth, Sun and Moon. There is much to contemplate here.

In honouring our planet and all life, we take on the responsibility of encouraging others to re-find that connection and offer workshops and courses to help people discover their own Druid's path.

If you are looking to make that reconnection with the Earth, please read these pages to learn more about us. If you feel an empathy with what you read, please get in touch via our contact page and we will arrange a meeting with you.

Rites of Passage

Welcomings, Hand-Fastings, and Passings are all important stages in our life that we need to celebrate or mark with ceremony. Please follow this link if you are looking for these services.

This image of Cernunnos is taken from the Gundestrup Cauldron which was discovered in Denmark in 1891 and thought to date from 1st or 2nd century BCE.
