Music and culture are highly regarded among Druids, who view poetry, music, and art as inspired by awen, a spiritual force that serves as muse and creative generator. Awen is also a symbol representing modern Druidry, depicted as three rays descending vertically. Druids place great significance on the natural world, especially trees, and seek to live in harmony with nature. Druidry can be practiced as a solitary or as part of groups known as “groves.”
