It came exactly three weeks after I joined/ordered. I signed up on a Friday, and it was mailed the following Monday. So it took 18 days to get here from the UK.
I opened it the day it came in, and skimmed through the ritual book and the one for the next celebration ritual, in addition to the first introductory gwersi. On the road trip yesterday, I read through the two ritual books from cover to cover, in addition to the intro book I had read online already.
Here's what was in the package...
Druidry poster
Wild Wisdom booklet (introduction to OBOD)
The Sacred Grove booklet (tree planting program)
The Book of Ritual (introduction to druid rituals with suggestions for modification/personalization)
Lughnasadh ceremony booklet
Gwersi - two introductory + first four of the paid course
Today I'm hoping to start journaling some notes about what I read through yesterday. I also need to figure out how I want to do the next celebration ritual, since the local group changed the day and I won't be able to go.
I'm also starting to think about ideas for organizing and storing my materials as I get them. As of right now, I'm considering a hanging file box with a lid. One section for the intro booklets, one for the rituals/ceremonies, and a section (or sections) for the gwersi. I can also put printouts in there. I haven't decided definitively yet, but I will probably go with this idea.
Until later,
