Celtic Tree Sign

In this article, discover your celtic tree sign, also referred to as druid tree sign or celtic birth tree astrology.

The Celtic Druids divided the year into 13 months based on the phases of the moon. So rather than centering time around they sun, they centered it around the moon – the lunar calendar. They also believed that trees and plants have symbolic attributes which can be linked to a person according to the time of year you were born.

Which Celtic Sign Rules Your Birthday? 

Birch Tree (Dec 24-Jan 20)

People born under the Birch Celtic tree sign (or Beith, Celtic translation) are known as The Achievers.

In Celtic astrology, this symbolizes you have the ability to go far in life when you focus your energy on specific goals.

Your energy comes from a fire that burns deep within you, but that fire will consume you if you are aimless. It’s always important for Birch Trees to have direction.

Your biggest challenge in life is to discover who you are and what you want. As you discover your purpose, you become the Light that others follow. This may involve a career move or becoming involved in an activity within the community.

Your biggest gift to humanity? You make others smile and see the humor in life, no matter how hard their circumstances. This may be borne of your own experiences, but not always. You are after all, a Light bearer and trusted servant of the spirit world.

You make the world a brighter place by your practical advice and unique spiritual outlook.

The best way for you to uncover your life purpose, is to first ensure you are emotionally stable, not up and down. Find your inner calmness and try not to be triggered by other people. When you are calm, the world around you is calmer.

Compatibility Signs: Vines and Willows.
Crystal: Clear quartz rejuvenates birch people. Place one of these small crystals in your bath water, or foot spa, to boost emotional healing.

Rowan Tree (Jan 21-Feb 17)

People born under the Rowan Celtic tree sign (Luis is the Celtic translation) are known as The Thinkers.

If you are true to your Celtic astrological sign, it means you enjoy pondering the big questions in life like Who am I? Is there a God? Is there alien life in the Universe?

The answers you receive eventually, over time, are supposed to help us all.

They say, there is always one good book within a Rowan tree sign waiting to be written. Have you written a book yet?

Some may think you aloof, but that’s only because you don’t need to hog the limelight – you are much more interested in observing and learning. When you do speak, your words have greater impact. Others tend to want to hear what you have to say.

Rowan’s are perhaps the most spiritual Celtic sign, although you can be a late developer in this regard.

While you are good at fitting in, shape shifting to your environment, it is only once you accept that you are different to others, that you can go on to achieve extra-ordinary things.

Compatibility Signs: Hawthorn and Ivy
Crystal: Green peridot crystal boosts your confidence so you can finally realise how unique and special you are. Keep this stone near you while you sleep.

Ash Tree (Feb 18-Mar 17)

People born under the Ash Celtic tree sign (Nuin is the Celtic translation) are known as The Enchanters.

You were born to enchant the world with your enthusiasm and creativity. Some of you will spread joy through your writing, art, converstation or cooking, or something else entirely unique to you.

You are highly sensitive which means dull weather, negative people and unattractive environments can adversely effect your mood. To counteract this, spend time in nature – a walk in the woods, park, or by the sea.

There will be times in your life, when you act like a recluse. These periods could last weeks, months or even years. But eventually, you always re-emerge more enchanting than ever.

Consider yourself a butterfly, but one which cocoons and is reborn several times in a lifetime.

This is normal for the Ash, so go with the flow.

Compatibility Signs: Willow and Reeds
Crystal: Coral stone allows your imagination to take flight. Keep this stone near you, or wear it as jewellery.

Alder Tree (Mar 18-Apr 14)

People born under the Alder Celtic tree sign (Fern is the Celtic translation) are known as The Pathfinders.

You are considered the most popular of all the tree signs, probably because you know how to ‘blend’ with people – you can shape shift to match their mood and intellect.

Because of this ability you may find people seek you out for advice, they have confidence in you and your abilities, even if you don’t always in yourself!

When you reach for the stars, others feel you are rightly fulfilling your destiny. When you believe it too, there are no limits to the magic you can achieve.

Compatibility Signs: Birches and Hawthorns

Crystal: Ruby helps you focus and make decisions. Keep this stone near you, or just wear something ruby-red for a few days when you need a bit more clarity about life.

Willow Tree (Apr 15-May 12)

People born under the Willow Celtic tree sign (Saille, Celtic translation) are known as The Observers.

You are the most intuitive (even psychic) of all the tree signs. If you are true to your Celtic astrological path, you will seek out psychic development courses.

The Willow is in tune with Mother Nature and is ruled by the moon, so lunar phases will have a big effect on you.

You may find you are luckier than most people, or your luck increases when you act on your intuition. Your intuition is the voice of angels guiding you.

You may not enjoy being in the spotlight, but don’t let that hold you back from being everything you were born to be.

Willows make great psychics, mediums, healers, therapists, nurses, counsellors, hairdressers and beauty specialists.

Compatibility Signs: Ivy and Birch

Hawthorne Tree (May 13-Jun 9)

People born under the Hawthorne Celtic tree sign (Huathe, Celtic translation) are known as The Illusionists.

The face you show to the world is quite different to the person within, the real you. In fact people, even those closest to you, would be surprised if you started saying what you really thought.

It’s important that you know, there is a flame of passion simmering within you. When the moment is right, it will alight and transform your life.

One day, you wake up and sense or KNOW, that now is the time to follow your heart. This could happen in your 20s, or in your 40s, 50s or 60s.

As you are so used to keeping your true thoughts to yourself, it will come as a surprise to others when you are finally ready to reveal some truths.

Dearest Holly tree sign, you will never be defeated by life, so know that it is always safe to push yourself and take a few risks.

You are kind to those you meet along the way. While some take advantage of your kindness, you feel superior in a way and are thus able to give generously.

This superiority is not a negative attribute, rather it means you feel blessed – simply to be alive on this beautiful planet Earth. You recognise others are not always able to view life with the same degree of wonder and appreciation.

Compatibility Signs: Elder and Ash

Your purpose in this life is to absorb knowledge, be that through books, courses, travel or a variety of experiences.

You may chop and change jobs, interests and hobbies many times over your life. Don’t take this as a sign of ‘failure’, rather it means you are successfully completing your life mission.

Some know you as the ‘lively’ one and others know you the ‘quieter’ one.

You are aware that society likes to pigeon hole people, but you are not pigeon-hole material. You are changeable and you were born this way so you could be adaptable to life.

Use your natural charm and ability to roll with the changes to create a fruitful career, family and home life.

The Reed is often mentioned in the bible, it is considered a spiritual plant and it is thought that those born under this Celtic sign were meant to help others achieve their life purpose.

For some this means being a parent and paying attention to your child’s education (your child chose you as a parent for a reason).

You know in your heart that if you ‘settle’ for a safe life and avoid risks, you are always likely to feel you are missing out.

A life without adventure, is a life half-lived, no matter how short and sweet the passion.

Travel, romance, friendship, laughter and fulfilling work – you need it all, and should strive for it all.

Sure it might be easier to settle, to lower your expectations, but in the process your soul hurts. You are a soulful person, there’s no escaping it!
