This podcast episode is a delightful conversation I had with a Celtic Druid named Matthew McRoberts here in Boulder, Colorado.
About Matthew...
Matthew comes from Ireland and is ordained as both a Celtic Pagan and Celtic Christian priest, as well as in the Grail Bloodline tradition. He is a treasure trove of knowledge and wisdom about Celtic spirituality. We shared a lovely recorded conversation together in his flat and then we met up with my partner for a tea ceremony downtown Boulder.
It’s my first recorded conversation live from the road, something I’ve been planning to do since we started our RV trip. I’m looking forward to bringing you more of these conversations from incredible people I meet along the path.
An Experience of Celtic Spirituality...
Matthew shares some of the tenets of Celtic Spirituality and how closely they are related to Hindu and American Indian pantheons.
He illuminates a few Celtic legends and Bible stories, like the Prodigal Son, interpreting them from a Sophionic (feminine/wisdom) perspective rather than the traditional Soteriological perspective (salvation based). He also shares some of own incredible story being born in Northern Ireland as part of the warrior culture there.
The Legend of the Morigan...
I initially called Matthew because I’d been having visions of The Morigan, the dark priestess of Celtic Spirituality who is often depicted with a crow. I reached out to him because he runs a Celtic Christian and Pagan ministry here in Boulder and he mentioned the Morigan in his opening description. In the podcast he shares the origin story of the Morigan sisters and the significance her archetype can have for our journey into the darkness within.

About Matthew
Matthew McRoberts (baptised Máta Áltheséir Mac Connachíe) is a native of Belfast, Northern Ireland. Born to American parents, he first came to the United States at age nine. He spent his first two years in Brooklyn, New York, and then moved with his family to Minnesota where he would spend his remaining teenage years. After a deployment with the US Army in Afghanistan, he spent time travelling the world, seeing much of South America, North Africa, Western and Southern Europe, and portions of the Middle East. Three years ago, he came to Colorado (on a greyhound) to start a new life on the front range. He's been attending Naropa University for his first Bachelor's degree since.
In his adult life, much of his education, training, and spiritual focus has bounced back and forth between multiple traditions. In the last year since winning a lifelong battle with substance abuse and alcoholism, he has shifted his focus onto a subject that has long been dear to his heart, and never far from his mind, Celtic (specifically, Irish) Spirituality. Both Christianity and Paganism. He is an ordained Druid, and additionally holds ordination with two other traditions, a Celtic Christian, and Grail Bloodline tradition.
