Knowledge the Old Ways is still to be had; the beliefs, connections with the land or the ‘other-world’ and the worlds of the fae, magic and mysticism. Old books; once the domain of dusty library shelves, now exist in a totally different domain – that of the pdf file.
Celtic Earth Spirit has spent considerable time tracing these files and accumulating them into one resource. They are all free to download.

Knowledge and information of ‘the old ways’ is hidden in many different guises – to name but a few:
- Encoded into mythology
- Hidden in folk-lore
- Behind many of our customs & practices
- In ancient records of beliefs of the people
- Loosely hidden in ‘histories’
- In childrens nursery rhymes
It is available still, if we know where to look for it.
To make it easier to locate books & texts on particular subject matters they are divided into different categories.
As a guide to our thinking; Goblins, Pixies and Fairies would come under ‘Folk-Lore & Mythology’ but the same wee folk who inhabited Scotland would be listed under ‘Scottish Texts’. Use the links below or the Nav bar to access the categories.
