In Celtic lore, hawthorns are "faery trees" that guard gateways to the Otherworld. Solitary hawthorns are believed to be meeting places for faeries, and disturbing them is said to bring misfortune or sickness.

In Celtic lore, white willows shimmer under a full moon, sacred to Brigid for healing & poetry. Fairies dance beneath, luring mortals to the Otherworld. A willow’s whisper inspires bards, but beware its fairy paths! #treelore #Celitc

Enjoying some herbal tea and reading some herbal tree tarot cards from my dear friend Dana O'Driscoll's TreeLore Deck. I've learned so much and connected with the trees in my area since working with this deck.

The Birch tree, Canada’s white-barked sentinel, dances in boreal forests. For Cree and Anishinaabe, it’s K’i, crafted into canoes and baskets, symbolizing resilience.

A hollowed tree stump sits in a forest clearing, illuminated by sunlight. A wooden bench rests nearby, and the forest floor is scattered with leaves. The black-and-white treatment emphasizes contrast and mood. — The stump shimmered in sunlight, like a sigil reactivated. The bench leaned close, as if listening. “It’s awake again,” it whispered. The forest stirred. Somewhere, a path rerouted itself. A crow took flight, not startled — summoned. The quest hadn’t begun, but the story had already changed.

The Ylfen Strap coils tight around an ancient ash; it whispers secrets to the wind. Does it hold the Ylfe captive, or shield the mortal wayfarer from their reach? To break the seal is to choose. Does it keep them in—or you out? Do you dare?

#MythologyMonday 🌳
🌳 In Norse myth, #Yggdrasil is the World Tree that connects the Nine Realms. Gods meet beneath its branches, the roots touch the underworld, and creatures like Nidhogg the dragon and Ratatoskr the squirrel call it home. As long as Yggdrasil stands, so does the cosmos. #treelore

Got a sleepyhead, stubborn pear tree? Lore in these parts says you have to have a talk with it. Give it a firm warning and a gentle tap with a switch - this tells the tree it's time to wake up and produce! #FolkloreThursday #TreeLore #Folklore

The Hawthorn Treelore. The Ancient Hawthorn is no ordinary tree, it’s a living threshold, revered as a portal to the Otherworld and a gathering place for Fae. Rooted at the crossroads of myth and reality, its blossoms herald the end of spring, and marks summer’s fade into Autumn

02. Messidor honoring the Oat

Herb: Purple Loosestrife • Lythrum salicaria & Sweetbriar Rose • Rosa rubiginosa

Card: The TreeLore Oracle • Black Locust - endurance, resistance, hermitage
Notebook: Chronicle Go-To w/ Mohawk paper, dotted & Col-o-ring swatch booklet Fountain Pen: Sailor hocoro - gray, F #30inks30days Dominant Industries Maple Open notebook with handwritten text from the post at top of the page with additional text: “Yet, the nature of our interactions with plants and landscapes shouldn’t be militant. We can adjudicate and negotiate a mutual coexistence by understanding how plants arrived and how they might leave. Even the most pernicious threats to biodiversity in various parts of the world—purple loosestrife in the United States or Canada goldenrod in Europe—remain well established beyond our wit’s end. Engaging with these species is, at best, a subject of control; a mountain of data from so-called ‘invasion biology’ suggests that eradication at landscape scale is ineffectice and implausible. This isn’t the white flag of surrender because nobody should be at war with plants. Many of these weeds, especially non-native ones, are abundant because of human activities. In the garden, one of the primary life-giving forces to undesirable plants is organic pollution, the over-enrichment of soils as a legacy of previous gardening or agriculture. While mitigating this after the fact requires time, if you garden in highly fertile soil, minimize the amount of organic material that returns annually.” — Kelly D. Norris, Your Natural Garden, 2025.

Notebook: Chronicle Go-To w/ Mohawk paper, dotted & Col-o-ring swatch booklet Fountain Pen: Lamy Studio - dark brown, M Ink: Monteverde Moonstone Open notebook with handwritten text from the post at top of the page with additional text: “A procession of the Argei took place, as we have seen on 16-17 March, but we do not know what happened at their sacella. However, more is known about the activities on 14 May. Dionysius of Halicarnassus, who witnessed the ceremonies, says that after offering the prescribed preliminary sacrifice, the pontiffs, the Vestal Virgins and the praetors, together with those other citizens that might lawfully attend the rites, threw from the sacred bridge into the Tiber 30 effigies made like men, which were called Argei; this, according to Dionysius, was a later substitution for a human sacrifice to Saturn in primitive times. Other sources add a little more detail: the wife of the flamen Dialis, the flaminica, who accompanied the procession, was forbidden to comb or dress her hair, that is she must display signs of mourning in place of the wedding dress that she usually wore (Aulus Gellius); the Argei, which were thrown from the Sublician bridge, numbered 27 and were made of rushes (Varro); they were thrown into the river by the Vestals (Festus).” — HH Scullard, Festivals and Ceremonies of the Roman Republic, 1981.

Treelore isn’t doing well. He was taken to the vet for heavy panting, drooling, and extreme pain. We have to monitor him constantly, as he mostly stays in one spot, getting up only to eat or use the bathroom, and I have to carry him.

Our vet hasn't diagnosed the issue, and it seems the space between the discs in his neck may be causing pain. We want a second opinion, but it's too expensive.
