The Sacred Ogham or Celtic Tree Alphabet has been in use since the 4th century and can be used both as an alphabet and as a divinatory tool or oracle. Trees were considered sacred to the Druids and Celtic people and each tree was given it's own symbol to express and tap into the trees energy.
We are blessed to live close to ancient woodlands and the majority of the woods in these sets is from gifted and fallen trees from these sacred groves. Other woods have been carefully gathered from our garden and close to our home so the energy is pure and very strong!! Each set of Ogham Staves is handcrafted by us with our love and full intention. They are left as natural as possible, with just a little carving to make them comfortable to hold and we burn the corresponding Ogham symbols onto each stave for additional energy and protection.

Birch - Beith, B, beginnings, renewal, youth
Rowan - Luis, L, protection, expression, connection
