The second of my Ogham tree flags. This one is for the silver birch...a tree of enchantment known as the the 'lady of the wood'. There are so many legends and ancient uses of the birch tree....including its use as a living maypole at Beltain. From the first Ogham inscription in Ireland the birch is associated with the sun god Lugh this first inscription was to warn him that his wife was being taken away to the land of the faerie....some may think that is appropriate in my garden.
I used a white Tibetan Prayer flag in my flag. White symbolising air and wind and the Windhorse image at the centre of the flag galloping like the wind carrying the wish fulfilling jewel which radiates peace, wealth and harmony.
Two in place...23 to go!
