Description

Rooted deep in the soil of Old Ireland, a language grew that was both pragmatic and magical. The writing system known as Ogham, like the people of ancient Ireland, spoke of the magic in every seed and every deed. Each letter in their writing linked itself to a species of tree and the lessons those trees have to teach. Through archaeological research, ancient poetry, botanical insights and stories translated from Old Irish manuscripts, this full-color illustrated volume will guide you through the twenty trees of the Ogham. Along the road between the Tree of Beginnings and the Tree of Endings, you'll gain a greater understanding of the philosophies that guided the people who used this writing form, and lessons that can help to guide us now. Letter by letter, learn the magics of the trees.
