The 21 Lessons of Merlyn Utter shit. This book claims to contain the Book of Fferyllta lost book of Druidism. It claims to contain spells for raising the shade of Merlyn. It claims druids met in the trees. It claims druids came from Atlantis. It claims they worshiped a god named Pharon. It claims that pumpkin is a sacred plant of druidism. It claims that druids were celibate vegetarians. It claims that women are the 21 lessons of merlyn pdf download sex, and very deadly well, we may be deadly.
It claims that mistletoe is something safe to ingest. It claims to have spells which will open portals to Fairyland. It claims that the druids used echinacea. It claims all this and more. Of course, these claims are all false: The Book of Fferyllt : lit.
The name of this so-called books originates in the Hanes Taliesinfrom the Guest translation of the Mabinogionwhere Cerridwen is using a spell from said book. Vergil was thought to be a magician in medieval folklore, but there is certainly no book. Another fake book of Monroe's is "The Gwarchan of Maeldrew" : there is no such thing. There is a "Gwarchan of Maelderew", either by the bard Aneurin or Taliesin, which is an elegy of a fallen warrior--not a spellbook. Michael Everson has a good breakdown of the "charm"--it is certainly not Welsh, much less "Druidic.
Yeah, it's from the film Dragonslayer 21 lessons of merlyn pdf download, spoken by Galen to bring down an avalance and trap the dragon in its lair.
Not only is this yet another piece of stolen movie dialogue, but it isn't even something which, concievably, 21 lessons of merlyn pdf download, could summon a dragon. Unfortunatley, it's entirely nonsense: A elfyntodd dwyr sinddyn duw cerrig yr fferllurig nwyn; os syriaeth ech saffaer tu fewr echlyn mor, necrombor llun.
One attempt at translating this has resulted in some comical jibberish: "O elements of water which lead? At any rate, the so-called spell is actually an englyn about the grave of Myrddin. You don't raise the dead with poetry. Well, maybe MacBeth, but that's another story. Druids never met in the trees. They met in nematons, which are sacred groves, but they sure as hell didn't climb the damn trees.
There is not, never was, and never shall be an Atlantis--not the way it's meant here, as home of the ancestors of the druids. Perhaps the isle of Thera, or similar Mediterranian canidates, experienced an earthquake some years ago; however, it is not the New Age continent that Monroe writes of here.
There is no god Pharon. The name Ffaron shows up in the Mabingion as a tragic figure who died of a broken heart, but he isn't a god. Druids certainly weren't celibate, historically or in legend--for example, the druid Cathbad is said to have fathered King Conchobhor mac Nessa of Ulster. The Druids were a caste, and as such couldn't continue to live if they were celibate. There is no evidence that druids were vegetarians.
Women were, while not relatively equal, certainly had more rights in Celtic society than in their neighbors, and were alloted a certain amount of freedom and education. Much of Monroe's book is full of misogynistic material--such as the outdated idea that sexual activity steals a man's power--all of which has nothing to do with what is known about druidism, 21 lessons of merlyn pdf download. While Monroe suggests making a tincture with mistletoe, it's commonly known that mistletoe berries are incredibly deadly [1].
Many of the other plants Monroe suggests are edible are most definately not. Also, druids wouldn't have known about pumpkins or echinacea, as they are North American plants, yet Monroe has them listed as druidic.
There is no 21 lessons of merlyn pdf download. At least not one you can visit in bodily form. Astral travel, well, that's up to your set of beliefs. And so on. In other words, if you want a comparatively accurate depiction of Celtic religion, read Ann Ross' Pagan Britain21 lessons of merlyn pdf download, or some original Celtic myths and Roman records. Other Responses to 21 Lessons : A review by Ceisiwr Serith : in which he goes page-by-page, dissecting the problems with the text.
Azaz Cythrawl's reaction to the text--a broader look than Serith's, but still worthwhile. NOTE: 1. Mistletoe: while the berries are deadly, the leaves are thought to have many theraputic uses, even in working towards curing cancer.
However, it is difficult to find commercial mistletoe tincture of 21 lessons of merlyn pdf download leaves, and one should leave the creation of such things from scratch to those better-versed in the process. The point, of course, is that Monroe does not mention any of this in his book, 21 lessons of merlyn pdf download.

King Arthur would get advice from his magician, Merlyn, in the mythic stories.
