Artistic Rendering of The Queen of the Order

Seeking members for the Clergical Council

As most of you know that The Celtic Pagan and Druidic Order of Constantine reemerged into the mainstream on 01 November 2021 by order of The Queen.  Since 584CE (AD) Our Order has been in Seclusion as a Monastic Order of Celtic Pagan and Druid Clergy.

After 1438 years in a seclusionary status - Queen Morrigan, our elected Queen, made proclamation of the Edict of The Tuatha Dé Danann, rendering Our Order open to the public around the planet. 

With the amount of Member Temples and vacant catchment areas worldwide we are in desperate need of Member Clergy of the Order.  

If you have felt the call... If you have a sense of purpose... Perhaps you may want to consider joining our Clergical Council.  

Training is free and in person - either face to face or by video conferencing. 

If you are interested in becoming a member of the Clergical Council simply send us a note from our contact page. In the subject line write: Maiden Knight or Master Knight Training.  

Fair Winds, 

Master Benedict Turcotte, D.D.

Scientists at CERN observe three "exotic" particles for first time

GENEVA, July 5 (Reuters) - Scientists working with the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have discovered three subatomic particles never seen before as they work to unlock the building blocks of the universe, the European nuclear research centre CERN said on Tuesday. The 27 kilometre-long (16.8 mile) LHC at CERN is the machine that found the Higgs boson particle, which along with its linked energy field is thought to be vital to the formation of the universe after the Big Bang 13.7 billion years ago.

Now scientists at CERN say they have observed a new kind of "pentaquark" and the first-ever pair of "tetraquarks", adding three members to the list of new hadrons found at the LHC.

They will help physicists better understand how quarks bind together into composite particles. Quarks are elementary particles that usually combine in groups of twos and threes to form hadrons such as the protons and neutrons that make up atomic nuclei.

More rarely, however, they can also combine into four-quark and five-quark particles, or tetraquarks and pentaquarks. "The more analyses we perform, the more kinds of exotic hadrons we find," physicist Niels Tuning said in a statement. "We're witnessing a period of discovery similar to the 1950s, when a 'particle zoo' of hadrons started being discovered and ultimately led to the quark model of conventional hadrons in the 1960s. We're creating 'particle zoo 2.0'."
