Myself and two other men in the area have decided to form an ADF protogrove. We have met together twice now, and we have decided to go with an Irish celt pantheon and hearth culture, and the name will be Desert Sage Protogrove. After much discussion and thought, we feel that this plant is the best Representative for the Ecology in which we live and practice our Druidry. The word sage also speaks to us of a person who is wise and kind, some thing the three of us are striving to become. Currently we are planning to do a summer solstice ritual for just the three of us, and a trip to San Diago with coast oak grove at the end of July.
I love the way you have honoured your belief system and the ecology that rings true to your geographical location. A beautiful balance! (and desert sage is a time honoured plant in so many cultures I think it befits your protogrove.) Wishing you the best always, Susanne
