They knew astronomy/astrology, mathematics, medicine and were priest-scientists among the pagan Celts. All people were divided into two main types: with a plant soul and with an animal soul. People with a plant soul are cordial and natural, love nature, blood ties, peace and comfort mean a lot to them. People of animal nature are cold, put spiritual kinship above blood kinship, they are distinguished by entrepreneurship.
For people with the soul of an animal, the Druids used massage with chopsticks. They are cut from the trunk or branches of healthy trees. Those who wish can make sticks themselves, you need to know how this or that tree works.
