The #Yew symbolises death & Saturn, but also the rebirth of light at the #wintersolstice. The Yew is Old Magic, dreams, otherworld journeys & connection to ancestors. It is perseverance leading to transformation & renewal.

The Spindle Berry is known as Robin’s Bread, as the robin guards it from other birds. The berry’s Latin name is Euonymus, after the mother of The Furies. A reminder that although alluring, the red berries are toxic to humans. #FolkloreThursday Flower Fairy illust: Cicely Barker

The Fairies of the Autumn - The Crab-Apple Fairy, ca. 1926
When time began the snow had no colour, & the flowers of the earth refused to help. It was only the snowdrop who took pity & offered up its colour. In return the snow has always protected the snowdrop from the harshness of #winter. #German #FolkloreThursday #Image: Cicely Barker

Crab-apples, Crab-apples, out in the wood,
Little and bitter, yet little and good!
The apples in orchards, so rosy and fine,
Are children of wild little apples like mine.
The branches are laden, and droop to the ground;
The fairy-fruit falls in a circle around; - Cicely M. Barker
The Blackthorn rules the dark half of the year from #Samhain. It is dark moon magic, an "increaser of secrets." Its thorns are the pins in a poppet, its wands used for cursing. A tree protected by faeries, its berries are the sloe. #FolkloreThursday

As well as carrying the devil’s curse on all those who eat them after #Michaelmas, blackberries can protect your home against vampires. If planted nearby, a vampire gets distracted by counting the berries & forgets his harmful intentions.

“My shoots are tipped with buds as dusty-grey
As ancient pilgrims toiling on their way.”
The Wayfaring Tree is a sign that you are on or near a path. It was plentiful on the medieval pilgrim route from London to Canterbury.

“The apple never falls far from the tree”- you always end up resembling your parents in some ways. Referred to in a 16th century German book of #proverbs, but probably ancient Ottoman.

I was always entranced by Cicely Mary Barker's Flower Fairies when I was little. So happy to hear there's a show devoted to them @GardenMuseumLDN - here's the beyond-magickal Nightshade Fairy – the deadliest of them all #art #museums #BookLoversDay
“Rowan tree & red thread make witches tine their speed”- an ancient #Scottish rhyme. Known also as witchentree & witchwood, the Rowan was planted by homes to protect them from harm, & by churches in #Wales to watch over & protect the dead.

The #NewMoon in #Cancer, at 3:47 am on 13th July, rules all white flowers. Their petals bring gentle healing to a new moon that is sensitive, nurturing, tearful & introspective, & opposes the lord of darkness, Pluto, in #Capricorn.
