Celtic Tree Astrology

If growing up means it would be beneath my dignity to climb a tree,
I’ll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up! Not me!
Peter Pan
Celtic Tree Astrology has its roots in the spiritual traditions of the ancient Druids, the priestly class of the
Celtic people. These revered figures saw forests as sacred spaces and believed that trees were
vessels of profound wisdom and cosmic connection.
Central to their worldview was the concept of the universe as a great tree - its roots symbolising the past, the trunk representing the present, and its branches stretching toward the heavens,
embodying the future and the afterlife.
Celtic astrology follows a lunar calendar composed of thirteen moon cycles, each associated with a specific
sacred tree. According to Druidic belief, the tree connected to a person’s birth moon influences their
personality, strengths, and destiny.

Though the reed is not a tree in the common sense, the ancient Druids recognised its power. To them, any tall plant with a woody stalk held the spirit of tree energy. The reed, with its strength and grace, was revered and given a sacred place in the Ogham - the mystical alphabet of the Celts.
