The #folklore and folk #magic associated with the #Whitethorn.

Part of a series of videos on the sacred trees of Britain and Ireland, their associations in the #Ogham ' #Celtic' #Tree #Alphabet and their symbolism, folklore, #mythology and practical and magical applications in #history and today.

The #May-Tree, or #Hawthorne or Whitethorn is sometimes thought of as the sister tree to the Blackthorn.

It is an ambivalent tree with both positive and negative associations in the Old Ways. A lot of this is to do with the #fairy folk, the good people or the Sídhe.

In the Ogham, it represents the letter #H ( #Huath) and denotes fear and horror.

Other associations include #healing, #fertility, sexuality, #protection, boundaries and #death.
