Book excerpt: This book sets out to examine the wider concept of magic and mythology being utilised as an early form of social psychoanalysis by the druids, and how magic theory and occult symbolism developed from this. How this evolution of ritual magic eventually made its way into folklore, witchcraft and freemasonry. From the proto-shamanic world of the megalith builders, to the lost civilisations of the Atlantic fringe, along with the continual changes and challenges to the human experience in the face of traumatic cultural upheaval, the druids and their legacy have played a far more influential role than has been previously acknowledged. The Druid Code: Magic, Megaliths and Mythology utilises folklore connected to sacred sites, developing a bidirectional conduit back through time, to reveal what took place in 2500BC. A shift in human consciousness that made humans what we are today. From Atlantis to alchemy, you will never see history and mythology in the same way again.
