I found a similar list (I think it came from the Order of Bards, Ovates, and Druids). It is pagan in nature, but it dovetails rather nicely with these seven.

The first gift is a Philosophy which emphasizes the sacredness of all life and our part in the great web of creation. It cares passionately about the preservation and protection of the environment and offers a worldview that is ecological, geocentric, pragmatic, idealistic, spiritual, and romantic. It does not separate Spirit and Matter—it offers a sensuous spirituality that celebrates physical life.

The second gift puts us back in touch with Nature with a set of practices that help us feel at one again with Nature, our ancestors, our own bodies, and our sense of Spirit by working with plants, trees, animals, stones, and ancestral stories. Eight seasonal celebrations help us to attune to the natural cycle, as well as to structure our lives throughout the year and to develop a sense of community with all living beings.

The third gift brings healing with practices that promote healing and rejuvenation, using spiritual and physical methods in a holistic way to promote health and longevity.

The fourth gift affirms our life as a Journey with rites of passage: for the blessing and naming of children, for marriage, for death, and for other times of initiation, when it is helpful to ritually and symbolically mark our passage from one state to another.

The fifth gift opens us to other Realities with techniques for exploring other states of consciousness, other realities—the Otherworld. Some of these are also used by other spiritual traditions, and include meditation, visualization, shamanic journeying, and the use of ceremony, music, chanting, and sweathouses; but they are all grounded in specifically Celtic and Druidic imagery and tradition.

The sixth gift develops our potential. Druidry as it is practiced today offers a path of self-development that encourages our creative potential, our psychic and intuitive abilities, and fosters our intellectual and spiritual growth.

The seventh gift of Druidry is the gift of Magic. It teaches the art of how we can open to the magic of being alive, the art of how we can bring ideas into manifestation, and the art of journeying in quest of wisdom, healing, and inspiration.

[...] about the Seven Valleys? Again, not a bad lineup! Or how about the Seven Signs of Celtic Wisdom? Manageable. The Rosicrucian lineup becomes a bit more difficult, and I won’t even try with the [...]

Thanks for the information. I’m jsujt getting where I’m learning about this. Pray that the Holy Spirit caresfully guides me through this so I’m enriched and educated and not drawn “in the wrong direction.” I’m female and have a prophetic music ministry witha healing emphasis. I’m wanting this to help in christian growth and not otherwise. I’m also as I’ve found out somehow multi-Celtic in smoe really interesting ways (most of the connections excpet for Ireland and Scotlan are pretty much severed (I had NO IDEA that Germany, Austria, and Switzerland were Celtic at one time (pre-Christian) Kinda wild.

I learn something new all the time. Cool.
