Unlocking the Secrets of Spiritual Wellbeing: Exploring the Willow Moon – Celtic Tree Moon No.5
Enter the Realm of the Willow Tree: Saille
From the 7th May until the 5th June, we are enveloped by the protective embrace of the Willow Tree, known in Celtic lore as Saille (pronounced Sahl-yeh). Revered for her profound healing energies and nurturing influence, she fosters emotional growth like no other.
Guardian of the Waters
The Willow’s domain is water, the lifeblood that sustains her verdant splendor and symbolizes the ebb and flow of emotions. She stands sentinel, shielding lands and homes from floods and peril. In the tarot, water corresponds to the West and is embodied by the Cup or Chalice, echoing the Willow’s watery essence.
Enchantress of the Moon
Under the Willow’s sway, the Moon reigns supreme, orchestrating the tides of the world with ethereal grace. Linked to psychic prowess and intuition, the Moon mirrors the enigmatic High Priestess in the tarot. Crafting a Lunar Wand from her branches beckons spirits from distant realms, while her hue is mirrored in the shimmering silver of the night sky, her gemstone the luminescent moonstone.
Bearer of Life and Death
Embracing her protective mantle, Willow Trees often stand sentinel near ancient cemeteries, their branches whispering secrets to the departed. Willow wood, chosen for its strength and resilience, lines graves and cradles coffins, offering safe passage to the beyond. In moments of mourning, a sprig of green willow serves as a poignant symbol of solace.
The Origins of Easter Eggs
In the annals of Celtic myth, the genesis of Easter Eggs lies nestled within the Willow’s branches. Legend tells of two crimson serpent eggs, cradling the Sun and Earth, hidden amidst her verdant boughs, birthing the universe anew.
Foundation of Wicca and Witchcraft
The very name “Wicca” and “Witchcraft” finds its roots entwined with the Willow’s ancient legacy, embodying the essence of magic and mystery.
Healing Touch
Beneath the Willow’s cascading tendrils, solace awaits those plagued by headaches, for her bark bears potent analgesic properties, earning her the moniker “Witch’s Aspirin.” Her weeping branches, veiled in secrecy, offer sanctuary from jealousy and bitterness, while Bach Floral Remedies provide balm for wounded spirits.
Focus of Magic
During this sacred month, spells and rituals dedicated to health, growth, nurturing, and the mysteries of femininity find fertile ground under the Willow’s watchful gaze.
Personality Traits
For those attuned to her watery depths, articulate intuition, unwavering will, and shrouded secrets are the hallmarks of their enigmatic nature, their opinions held close to their hearts like precious gems awaiting discovery.
