A Treasury Of Druidic Triads

[Dave TheDruid-3X3Participant]

Awens to All:

Here is my 2012 Samhain 3X3 Triad of Wisdom and it once again addresses some of the Dark Issues of
Life in this Sabbath that takes place during the Darker Time of the YEar.

This 3X3 Triad is based on the fact that I have had some Personal Problems and Issues recently to
the point that I went to my Favorite Buddhist Temple and asked the Buddhist Priest whether or not
this Life on Earth is actually a Life in an Upper Plain of Hell.

The Buddhist Priest replied that in order to get to a Better Plain of Existance for one’s Next Life,
to make sure to work on keeping ones Mind as Peaceful and Tranquil as possible.

But since I have been thinking that this Life on Earth is actually an more Benevolent Upper Plain of
Hell, I have wrote a 3X3 Triad dedicated to pointing out the things that indicate that this Life is
actually an Upper Plain of Hell where we all are made to Suffer so many Pains and Sorrows all the
time.

And for this 3X3 Triad, I was able to think of so many Triads of Wisdom that shows how this Life is
actually an Upper Plane of Hell that I could write another similar one in the Future that I could
call “Whilst In A Life In Hell” or something like that.

For this particular 3X3 Triad, all of the Triads all start with the same line, which is something
I have done in Past 3X3 Triads.

So here is my 2012 Samhain 3X3 Triad which is called ‘In This Life In Hell’ and it goes:

In This Life In Hell:
– There Is Illnesses,
– Diseases,
– And Chronic Suffering.

In This Life In Hell:
– There Is Genocidal Wars,
– Territorial Wars,
– And Religious Wars.

In This Life In Hell:
– There Is Betrayals,
– Treacheries,
– And Scams.

——————————————————-

In This Life In Hell:
– There Are Psychopaths,
– Controloholics,
– And Megalomaniacs.

In This Life In Hell:
– There is Arguments,
– Issues,
– And Disagreements.

In This Life In Hell:
– There Are Weird Accidents,
– Things Going Wrong,
– And Stupid Mistakes.

———————————————————-

In This Life In Hell:
– There is Intolerance,
– Inconsiderate Acts,
– And Incompetence.

In This Life In Hell:
– There is Child Abuses,
– Parent Abuses,
– And Spousal Abuses.

In This Life In Hell:
– There is Unhealthy Needs,
– Desires,
– and Addictions.

3X3

[Dave TheDruid-3X3Participant]

Awens to All:

One day, while in a 2017 Business Meeting, I stated to a Property Manager that a Triad about how Trust Works.

I thought that I had Written that Triad into one of my Past 3X3 Triad Poems but when I recently checked, it turned out that the Triad I had stated at the Meeting was something that I had just suddenly created off the top of my Head. So I therefore decided to write the Triad I had Spontaneously Created into a 3X3 Triad Poem and it is now being made into my 2024 Imbolc 3X3 Triad of Wisdom Poem.

Here it is:

Trust Is:
– Hard To Create,
– Must Always Be Maintained,
– And Is Easy To Destroy.

Without Trust:
– There Is Suspicion,
– Corruption,
– And Betrayal.

Things Which Need Trust:
– Taking Care Of Others Health,
– Safety,
– And Security Issues.

—————————————————-

What One Must Do To Create Trust:
– Behaving Politely,
– Being On Time,
– And Keeping A Personal Secret.

Ways To Maintain Trust:
– Good Communications,
– Keeping Your Promises,
– And Being Reliable.

Trust Is Easy To Lose Because Of:
– Paranoia,
– Delusional Thoughts,
– And Effects Of Post Traumatic Stress.

—————————————————–

Fastest Ways To Destroy Trust:
– Showing Unhealthy Desires,
– Getting Caught Lying,
– And Stealing Valuables.

Without Good Communications Of Trust:
– There Could Be Confusion,
– Uncertainty,
– And Stupid Mistakes.

People Most Needed To Be Trusted:
– Friends,
– Family,
– And Fellow Coworkers.

3X3

[Dave TheDruid-3X3Participant]

Awens to All:

When I came upon a Poem by the 16th Century Poet Herrick, I noticed that each of the Stanzas were exactly 4 Lines with is similar to a Triad Stanza except there is a Long First Line, a 3 or 4 Word 2nd Line, a 2 Word 3rd Line and the ending 4th Line is as long as the 1st Line with the 1st & 4th Lines Rhyming and the 2nd & 3rd Lines Rhyming.

So I took that style of Poetry Writing and made one to Celebrate Flowers of Spring & Summer writing exactly 9 Stanzas which is my 3X3 Style of Triad Poetry Writing to be E-Published on Spring Equinox.

Here is goes:

3X3 Herrick Style Poem On Flowers:

Springtime Flowers Come On
Spread The Petal
With Metal
And On They Spread On

Summer Flowers Follow Then
Smell Their Perfume
With Plume
The Bees Come On The Glen

Flowers Bring On Seeds
In Groups Of Buds
Great Floods
Flow On In Wind Speeds

—————————————-

Fruits Come From Flowers
Grow In Groups Lots
In Plots
Baskets In Many Stores

Bees Love Many Blossoms
Foraging For Nectar
Also Fare
Taking Such To Queens Bussoms

Without Flowers On The Plain
Much Will Not Grow
And Blow
Causing Plants To Refrain

—————————————

In Autumn The Flowers Wane
Wither And Fall
With Paul
Creates Medicines For Pain

Flowers Are Of Benefits
Full Of Good Will
They Fulfill
In This World They Fits

Flowers A Source Of Beauty
Spread Their Fronds
With Bounds
They Are Of Such Pretty

Who’s Paul?

[Dave TheDruid-3X3Participant]

Actually, maybe I should have made that ‘With Pawl’ instead.

And it should have been Pawl which is something that Ratchets through. I guess I meant how the Season ‘Ratchets’ through each other.

Oops – I forgot to post my 2024 Samhain 3X3 Triad of Wisdom Poem last October 31st.

So better late than never so here it is:
————————————————-

Awens to All:

My 2024 3X3 Triad Of Wisdom is based on an Article written by Nimue Brown when she wrote about Victims & Victimization.

It is about what we all have to deal with when Vicitimized by Others.

It Goes:

*Victims Have To:
– Meditate,
– Reflect,
– And Stop Playing It Up Too Much.

When Victimized:
– Post Traumatic Stress Occurs,
– Do Not Be Ashamed,
– And Tell Someone Who Can Help.

It Is Not Your Fault:
– That There Are Sociopaths,
– Psychopaths,
– And Scammers Who Victimize Others.

————————————————-

Meditating:
– Clears The Mind,
– Refreshes The Soul,
– And Relieves Stress.

Reflecting On What Has Happened:
– Helps Learning From Past Mistakes,
– How To Avoid Being Victimized Again,
– And Brings Wisdom That Can Be Shared.

Playing Up Being The Victim:
– Grinds The Axe,
– Does Not Bring Relief,
– And Makes You Look Unforgiving.

—————————————————

One Can be Victimized:
– Financially,
– Sexually,
– And Emotionally.

Post Traumatic Stress:
– Prevents Forgiveness,
– Can Cause One To Become Introverted,
– And Trust In Others Is Forever Lost.

Playing Up Being The Victim Too Much:
– Makes You The Villain,
– Makes Your Issue Redundant,
– And Sets A Bad Example For Other Victims.

Your friend sounds like a nice person – is he also a druid? I came in here to find out about druids and their beliefs but am finding the site difficult to navigate. As you seem to be in charge perhaps you can advise me?

[Dave TheDruid-3X3Participant]

Awens to All:

Upon receiving Bobcat’s Book ‘Living Druidry’, I noticed that it has exactly 9 Chapters so instead of writing an Extensive Review, I will write this Short Little Review about it.

I found it to be more like the Spiritualities of Druidism and found those Spiritualities presented in much the same way as Carl Jung presented his versions Spiritualities in his Famed Red Book. So I would more like call this Book, ‘The Spiritualities of Druidism’ instead of ‘Living Druidism’.

If you want to find better information about such Druidistic Subjects, they are covered far better by Bobcat in her Books, ‘What Is Druidry’ and ‘Living With Honor, A Pagan Ethics’.

So for this Seasons 2025 Lughnasad, I am writing a 3X3 Triad Poem in which each of the 9 Triads are devoted to each Chapter of the Book describing the how I interpreted the meanings of each Chapter.

Here is Goes:

The Nature Of Druidry Coexists With:
– Amidst Modern Western Culture,
– Our Automobiles,
– And Our Computer Technologies.

We Find Focus In Places To:
– Begin In Our Temples,
– Altars,
– And Circles.

We Are Finding Ourselves In Perfect Nemetons Of:
– Souls,
– Spirits,
– And Shimmering Groves.

——————————————————————–

In Finding Connections Of The Awens:
– We Create Spiritual Webs,
– Open Nests,
– And Weaved Craftings.

Powers Of Nature Lays In:
– The Various Forms Of Deity,
– The Changes Of The Seasons,
– And How Dewdrops Contribute To The River’s Flow.

Our Power Within Anthropomorphizes:
– The Animals,
– The Gods,
– And Plastic.

——————————————————————-

When Letting Go:
– You Accept What Needs To Be Forgiven,
– Adapt To Difficult Problems,
– And Are Able To Drum Out Negativity.

Change Is:
– The Magical Cycles Of Life,
– The Four Sacred Elements,
– And Almost Impossible To Control.

Spiritual Freedoms Are:
– The Mellifluous Flow Of Harmonious Truths,
– Expressions,
– And Ecstasies.

[Dave TheDruid-3X3Participant]

Awens to All:

Change is one of the Universe’s Biggest Sources of Development and thus I am creating a 3X3 Triad Poem on what Change is all about.

It is because of Change being both Good & Bad Aspects of Life that I am making this subject for a Samhain 3X3 Triad as it covers some of the Dark Negative meanings of Life as well as the Bright Side of Life.

Here it is:

Change Happens:
– Gradually,
– Naturally,
– Or Suddenly.

Change Should Never Be:
– Forced,
– Interfered With,
– Or Rushed.

Life’s Changes:
– Being Born,
– Growing Old,
– And Dying.

———————————————-

Gradual Changes Happens To:
– Lifeforms,
– Evolutions,
– And The Universal Galaxies.

Natural Changes Are:
– Seeds Germinating,
– The Tides Of The Seas,
– And The Seasonal Progressions,

Sudden Changes:
– Earthquakes,
– Volcanic Eruptions,
– And Floods.

———————————————–

Humanity Have Forced Change By:
– Clearing Forests In The Name Of Progress,
– Creating Weapons Of War,
– Or With Mind Control Brainwashing.

Changes Of The Universe:
– Creation Of Galaxies,
– Stars,
– And Planets.

Changes Can Be:
– Peaceful,
– Violent,
– Or Tranquille.

No, I am Not In Charge. This is a Website that is run by Grey Owl along with Bobcat.

I am a Participant just like yourself.

Anyways –

Seeing as Imbolc is coming up, I have decided to post the Very First Imbolc Triad Poem that I ever wrote in 2007 and it goes:

What Gives Life Purpose:

Because of a Lack of Purpose:
– Harm can occur for want of a Purpose,
– It can be one of the causes of Suicide,
– One can start creating Fights in order to get a Purpose.

—————————————————————————

– Something that Creates Goodness,
– When you do something that gets Good Compliments from your Peers.

When in a Nice Home:
– Warmth is Enjoyed,
– Tranquility is Achieved,
– And Creativity is Accomplished.

Through Good Spiritual Awareness:
– You gain a Good Relationship with your Favorite Form of Deity,
– Peace is in your Heart,
– And you gain Acceptance.

——————————————————————————-

Because of Fights starting for want of a Purpose:
– Wars can occur,
– Ruthlessness can manifest itself,
– Harm is Created that will Return with Greater Harm.

Through Acceptance:
– You gain Freedom of Spirit,
– Tolerance of others is Achieved,
– And the Cycles of Life is Enjoyed.

With Compliments from your Peers:
– You can hold your Head Up High,
– Good Karma is Imparted into your Higher Self Soul,
– Strength to carry on with such Work is gained.
