John Moriarty: Philosopher, Mystic, Shaman

John Moriarty was an Irish writer and philosopher acknowledged for his profound insights and mystical perspective on modern life. He was born on February 2, 1938 in County Kerry and died there on June 1, 2007.

John Moriarty was a philosopher who lived before his time and his wisdom is even more relevant in 2025 than it was thirty or forty years ago. We have come through some experiences in the past few years that have caused many people to question how we live and the destructive impact that human behaviour has on the planet and consequently for our own wellbeing. There is an increased sense that something needs to change, and it needs to happen soon.

There is a lack of elders and true wisdom teachers for the times we live in. John Moriarty was such an elder. He offers nourishment for the soul and opens a path of reconnection.
