  OBOD: WHAT IS AN OVATE?
Modern day Ovates are able to turn in this quest to a number of distinctly Druidic methods of divination, including working with the sacred animals of the Celtic and Druid traditionand working with Ogham, which has come to be known as the sacred tree-alphabet of the Druids.
The Ovate, with their divining skill would have been used to find water sources and sources of metallic ore, for this was important to the Celts who used both bronze and iron.
The North is the place of the Ovate, for it is the Grade in which we learn of 'The spiritual intelligence of the night' [The Book of Taliesin] when we understand the mystery that the spirit is reborn in the place of greatest darkness.

 ovate
Modern usage has since adopted the term ovate, an English adaptation of the Greek use (ouateis) of the proto-Celtic term (wat), and so that is the convention I will stick to here.
The role of the ovate, if we are to believe the texts, was to perform sacrifices, divine the future, and be natural philosophers--that is, to study nature and attempt to interpret its workings.
It is possible that the ovate was a low-level druid, but this seems unlikely, as the role of the druid was NOT in fact to perform magic rites or divine the future (despite the confusion of later texts), but to act as impartial judges and priests, advisors to kings but not under the king's authority.
