Effortless Druidry: Embrace the Outdoors
- Details
- Written by Nimue Brown
Sitting out is one of my favourite summertime activities. It’s very simple, fairy accessible and allows a lot of Druid stuff for not a huge amount of effort.
In essence all you have to do is sit outside somewhere, for as long as you want.
I favour being close to home, and sitting out at twilight. Being close to home means building my relationship with my immediate landscape. I’m lucky in that I have trees, running water and other greenery nearby. I don’t have my own garden, but if you do, then those are good and secure spaces to sit out.
As a teen I used to sit out on my grandmother’s doorstep, usually to look at the moon. My twenties involved sitting out on my own doorstep, usually with a guard cat for company. Even on that urban street there was plenty to connect with.
I favour twilight because it’s a good time for seeing wildlife and there tend to be fewer people about. Obviously factor in what’s safest and most feasible for you when it comes to timings and locations alike.
Then you just sit. You can meditate, or just be present. You can let your mind wander, or be focused. If you want to make a little ritual around it, include prayer, or offerings or anything else, then that’s workable. It’s also fine to just sit and be open to whatever happens.
No matter how I approach it, I find sitting out to be peaceful and restorative. There is always something to connect with – the earth and the sky are always there. I often see bats. Sometimes foxes pass through, owls and deer call from nearby trees. Sometimes cows are vocal as well. All manner of birds pass over at twilight as they head to their roosts. It’s inviably an opportunity to experience beauty.
