Heartwarming and powerful.

Speaking of heartwarming and powerful, doing ceremony in the center of Stonehenge was amazing. Two days before Stonehenge the Hopi elder who was to do the ceremony was
asked to instead fly to Australia to preside at an important event with/for Aboriginal folk. I thought a local well-known practitioner had been asked to stand in, but on arrival at
Stonehenge she told me I was doing it; whatever I felt appropriate. To be allowed to do prayer standing on a spot of soil where prayer has been done for thousands of years, and to
feel and see how strong the energy ran, and the reaction of the folk in the circle; not possible to describe.

Definitely remnants of ancient tradition still happening.
By the way, the Celts weren't very interested in the Solstices. Stonehenge was as old as the Roman Colosseum is to us now when they first happened on Stonehenge. That "sun rise on the Solstice" thing commemorates something millenia older than Druidic anything.
