With NASA recently announcing that there was a 13th star sign, and throwing many astrology enthusiasts into disarray, we took the time to go back in time, and revisit Celtic tree astrology.
Background:
Celtic tree astrology is based on the ancient idea that our time of birth is pivotal to the formation of our personality and behaviour. But when the Druids devised their astrology charts, they didn’t use constellations like other cultures. Instead, their symbols were trees. The druids had a profound connection with trees and believed they were vessels of infinite wisdom.
Each Celtic Zodiac Sign corresponds to a given tree, a letter of the Ogham alphabet, a Guardian Animal, a Celtic God, and other items such as Gemstones.
