This weeks challenge is a very interesting one and I love it. It is to find out what Celtic tree you are and write a poem based on that. My husband is the Willow tree and that is one of my favorite trees. But that was not me. So what lovely Celtic tree did I turn out to be well!
REED – THE INQUISITOR
OCTOBER 28 – NOVEMBER 24
Reeds among the Celtic tree astrology signs are the secret keepers. You dig deep inside to the real meaning of things and discover the truth hidden beneath layers of distraction. When there is a need to get to the heart of the matter, the Reed sign will most certainly find the core. You love a good story and can be easily drawn in by gossip, scandals, legend and lore. These tendencies also make you an excellent historian, journalist, detective or archaeologist. You love people because they represent a diversity of meanings for you to interpret. Reed signs join well with Ash or Oak signs.

Mysteries than not.
I love this challenge so much. And the meaning of the reed tree fits me so well. I had to write a poem of my favorite style.

Hi Brenda, a lovely poem. It is interesting that many of the participants in this challenge are reeds, ashes, or willows.
Yes, it is interesting that many share the same.

Brenda, this is a lovely haiku. Your season word is “reed.” I found more reed related season words here: https://worldkigodatabase.blogspot.com/search?q=reed. Reeds aren’t really trees. (I had to look them up). You know the tall stalks that stick out near marshy ground? Those are reeds. I figured cattails might be considered a reed too. That’s pretty cool!
Wow, that is cool. Thanks for the information.
Ah, we are both reeds! Nice to be sharing the mysteries of the universe… Lovely poem, Brenda. 🙂
Thank-you so Marje
