Today, the term “Celtic spirituality” is an umbrella term, an ambiguous magical term embraced by adherents of a variety of spiritual traditions. There are Celtic Reconstructionists, who attempt to reenact as closely as possible the ancient religious practices of the Celts, neodruid orders who embrace the romantic ideal of the druid as learned scholar and wise religious teacher. There are the Celtic Christians, both Catholic and Protestant, who look to the gentle traditions of Ireland and embrace the natural world and the inner landscape. Finally, there are the myriad numbers of neopagans and Wiccans, who take inspiration from Celtic traditions and symbolism in their rites.
