The word “awen” is used by some modern Druids as a Celtic equivalent to the Sanscrit word “aum,” intoning it when doing trancework, thusly: “aah-ooo-enn..."

The Mesopagan Druids have as their most common symbol the “Awen” or “three bars of light,” shown here (left) in the simplest form. The word “awen” means “inspiration” in Middle Welsh, and in Mesopagan Druidism it represents the primal sound and light caused by “the” Supreme Being pronouncing “His” name to create the universe. Mesopagan Druids have a great deal of metaphysical theory based on this and related triplicities — most of it coming from the early Unitarian preacher and prolific forger of ancient manuscripts, Iolo Morganwyg (who pretty much created Mesopagan Druidry to begin with). The Order of Bards Ovates and Druids places the Awen inside a set of three circles (right), representing Iolo’s three “stages of existence.” As you can see, some people use the Awen with and some without the three dots symbolizing the Supreme Being (and some with a single dot).-
