We are a contemporary Druidic order based in Liverpool affiliated to the Council Of British Druid Orders (COBDO). Our membership comprises many people from many walks of life and on a wide variety of spiritual paths. We embrace many spiritual paths including Pagan, Rosicrucian, Golden Dawn, Wiccan and Spiritualism; we gather together under the symbol of the phoenix embracing a vision of humanity appreciating its true spiritual nature and nurturing that spiritual spark in all sentient life. The phoenix symbolizes the individual rising from the ashes of ignorance into the light of spiritual truth and appreciating the spiritual side of our nature and nurturing it to achieve fulfillment and happiness in an overly materialistic world.
We were honoured and stand proud to have been made members of the Council Of British Druid Orders (COBDO) in March 2007. POD are proud of our beloved heritage and are one of the druid orders named in the Loyal Arthurian Warband. The Phoenix Order of Druids is a family based order that holds rituals for all the equinoxes and sabbats and we have, in our short time, performed handfastings, naming rites and burial and cremation rites. The arch-druid and founder of POD is Wayne and is one of the only authorized Pagan chaplins in the UK.
