Legends and myths about trees

Celtic beliefs in trees (19)

C for Coll (Hazel) - August 5th - September 1st

“Tree of Knowledge - 9th month of the Celtic Tree Calendar (Ref)”

Color: Orange; Star: Mercury, Saturn: Gems: Topaz, Pearl; Gender: Male; Patron: Hermes, Mercury, Aengus; Symbols: wisdom + divination, poetry + learning, knowledge + intelligence, healing (healing) arts

About a dozen or so species of hazel species are found in the marshy regions of the Northern Hemisphere. The hazel leaves are rounded with jagged edges, velvety soft to the touch, and turn yellow or pink in the fall. The hard nuts of the hazelnut ripen from mid-August to October. Wrapped in ragged leaves, it is said that it takes 9 years for a hazelnut to bear a full crop. The number nine is the sacred number of the muses who are in charge of our intellectual activities. This is one of the reasons why, since ancient times, the hazel has been associated with inspiration in the arts and learning.

The ancient Celts regarded the hazel as a tree of knowledge. All knowledge was intertwined within the husk of the hazel nut. This is where the idiom "in a nutshell" comes from. The hazel is the tree of white magic and healing, the poet's tree. Its sacred berries were the food of the gods as well as a source of inspiration and immortality. For the ancient Celts, there was no better expression than poetry, neither in art nor in magic.

An ancient Irish code, handed down to posterity as the 'Sacred Triad', stipulates that anyone who intentionally cuts down a hazel tree is guilty of death. No other tree has been given such high status, except the apple.

The hazel is said to be a talisman of good health and protection against all kinds of disasters. In Ireland, on Beltine and Solstice, a cow is led in front of two huge torches, with its back covered in hair roasted with a flaming hazel wand, as a curse against magic and bad luck. Sometimes hazel twigs were also tied to horses' manes to protect them from fairy magic.

The planet that rules the hazel is Mercury. The hazel is inseparable from water, but the ruling element is air. It is said that the hazel is surrounded by the magical power of mercury, which enhances mood and brings inspiration.

木にまつわる伝説・神話

ケルト人の樹木の信仰 (19)

C for Coll (ﾍｰｾﾞﾙ) - 8月5日～9月1日

『知識の木 〜 ケルトの木の暦（参照）の第9月』

色: オレンジ; 星: 水星、土星: 宝石: トパーズ、真珠; 性: 男性; 守護神: ヘルメス、メルクリウス (マーキュリー)、オェングス; シンボル: 知恵＋占い、詩＋学問、知識＋知性、治療 (癒し)の技術

ハシバミの仲間は、北半球の湿地帯に十数種ほど生息している。ハシバミの葉は丸みを帯び、縁にはギザギザがあり、ビロード��ように柔らかく、秋には黄色やピンクに色づく。ヘーゼルナッツの堅い実は、8月中旬から10月にかけて熟す。ボロボロの葉に包まれたヘーゼルナッツは、実がなるまで9年かかると言われている。9という数字は、私たちの知的活動を司るミューズたちの神聖な数字である。古来より、ハシバミが芸術や学問のインスピレーションと結びついてきた理由のひとつがここにある。

古代ケルト人はハシバミを知識の木と見なしていた。すべての知識はハシバミの実の殻の中で縒り合わされていた。「一言でいえば (in a nutshell)」という慣用句はここから来ている。ハシバミは白魔術と癒しの木であり、詩人の木である。その神聖な実は神々の食物であり、インスピレーションと不死の源でもあった。古代ケルト人にとって、芸術においても魔術においても、詩に勝る表現はなかった。

アイルランドの古代の掟は「聖なる三位一体」として後世に伝えられ、ハシバミの木を意図的に伐採した者は死罪に処せられると定められていた。これほど高い地位を与えられている木は、リンゴを除いて他にはない。

ハシバミは無病無災の護符であり、ありとあらゆる災害から守ってくれると言われている。アイルランドではベルティネ祭や夏至の日に、背中に魔法と悪運から身を守る呪いとして、火のついたハシバミの杖で毛焼きがほどこされた牛を２本の巨大な松明の前に引き出す。馬のたてがみにもハシバミの小枝を結んで、妖精の魔法から身を守ることもあった。

ハシバミを支配する惑星は水星である。ハシバミは水と切っても切れない関係にあるが、支配元素は空気である。ハシバミは水銀の不思議な力に包まれており、気分を高め、インスピレーションをもたらすと言われている。

“Larks, Larks, Give us Summer,

We’ll give you Winter–

There’s no food left for us”

—Elizabeth Wayland Barber, The Dancing Goddesses

I set the first of my bird buns out in the hazel tree this evening to begin the ritual to coax Spring that will culminate in the drowning of Morana.

This is hopefully the last winter storm. We always seem to get one last bit of snow in the week before or after my birthday.

[stitchwraith-stingers]

someone on twt pointedthis out but hazel often sings and hypes herself up and i think thats so cute.....

[cloudwisp]

childhood friend caleb, when you both were younger, taught you how to tie your shoelaces using the bunny ear method and finish it off with a double knot so it doesn’t undo easily.

[ughigottaheadache]

So like are we all in agreement that Bunny was somehow involved with Trey’s death orrr..?

Bc we know he and Lacey met in highschool and his death was sudden and unexpected bc he was so young, that’s it, that’s all we get about his death. I wouldn’t put it past Bunny who had grown so fixated on Cherie that she would try to use her son a second time to be a means to an end.

If there ever is a dlc, I would be so happy just to get a little tiny pinch of info ab his death, we already know enough ab his life and how much he loved Lacey and Hazel, but seriously I just want to know how he died it’s eating at me! Most everything else had a little knot tied at the end of it this is the only mystery rlly left besides the catfish’s actual story.

For all we know his death could’ve left some threads that had been buried with that house Hazel couldn’t see til now. Though now that I think about it, it’d be cruel for Hazel have to see his death how she did the demises of others in the game. Hm.
