answer: Yes, especially in the US and UK

reviving the ancient religion is difficult because the Celts teaching was oral, nothing was written down. People claiming to "know" how the Druids worked and rituals and such should be viewed with a skeptical eye.

Druidism wasn't the religion of the ancient Celts. Druidism is the name of a paganGanligion that likes to pretend it reflects the religion of the ancient Celts, but it isn't actually a reconstructionist religion. It's more like Irish themed Wicca. In the ancient Celtic religion, Druids were leaders that went through druidic education. Not merely adherents to the religion. If someone calls themself a druid, that's really quite presumptuous of them. It'd be like if someone called Judaism Rabbism and every Jew was a Rabbi.

I'll link a FAQ about Celtic Reconstructionists.

Yes me for one also there are probably around thousands and maybe more of other Druids. Druidry is sky rocketing to popularity
