Donald McKinney is the convener of the Celtic Circle and is a former lecturer in Spanish history and politics. Since 1986 he has actively been involved in pursuing a spiritual path, though of course at first it wasn't clear that was what was happening. Find out more here.

His experiences, which saw him transformed from an atheist have transformed his life. He now works with earth energies, spirits and trees and sees them as major tools in helping spiritual awareness and development to occur.

He is the author of Walking the Mist: A Practical Guide to Celtic Spirituality, and Celtic Angels: Angelic Guidance for Your Path Through Life.

He lives with his partner in East Lothian and is a partner in Body & Soul, Scotland's foremost New Age business. He gives talks and workshops all over the UK, Ireland and North America.
