Hi all. I have a question. If the Ancient Druids only celebrated only four holidays ( two of which are Beltaine & Samhain or Samhuinn) why do all the Druid Orders (ADF, Keltria & OBOD) insist/require that we celebrate 8 holidays??? I realize it might be because of a Wiccan influence(?). But if Druids only celebrated only four, why do we celebrate eight? BTW, I'd like a list of the eight holidays with all the alternative spellings/names as well as the dates they are celebrated on ( not to mention their astrological dates). I don't ask a lot do I??? &lt;GGG&gt;
