Like people, trees are all individuals. 

Energy is magic!

Magic is not a practice. It is a living, breathing web of energy that, with our permission, can encase our every action.'

Welcome in the Yew Energy

"Haunted in the Eaves of October
Spirits and Gnomes come out to play
To deck our homes with remembrance,
Witching up the powers of the Fay!"


Hello Tree Lovers,

​
With the Irish New Year of Samhain coming up on Nov 1st, I thought it was a good time to chat a bit about the Yew Tree, whose roots seem to be planted firmly in the underworld…
At dusk on Samhain, the Celtic people celebrated thebeginning of the new year. As with many ancient cultures, they honored the cycles of light/dark, life/death and the sacred symbolism of opposites, believing that new life and light was birthed from the season of darkness. Samhain was a portal into the underworld where the veils became thinbetween the seen and unseen unlocking access to the spirit world of our ancestors.
The ancient yew tree is connected to the time of Samhain, a sacred treeto the druids who saw it as a representation of the eternal cycle of life and death. The yew is one of the oldest living things on earth and is connected to the Crone of the triple goddess. She is the ancient goddess of wisdom who carries the seed of life into the other world for renewal. Known also as the tree of life and death it holds the medicine of death to the finite self and gives birth to immortality. This tree wisdom offers great healing as it helps us overcome fear of change. Through change there is always a new beginning and transformation into embodying the next greater whole of ourselves.
The yew reminds us that in seeing our eternal nature we can embrace the knowing that death, connected to the Lungs and the breath of life, are just portals to rebirth. 
The wisdom of the yew has touched my own life deeply this past number of years and has become my personal totem for the initiation into transformation. It has taught me that all life experiences are mirrors that reflect back what we need to learn to grow wiser. That in the darkness there is always light and surrendering to the natural cycles of change arewhat make us beautiful, alive and free.

Yours under the Elm,
Ian

    Ian Claxton

    Ian Claxton is a traditional healer and founder of Ogham Tree Flower Essences and Oracles.  He is originally from Dublin and trained as a scientist, where he gained a bachelors degree in Biotechnology and later a Masters in Integrative health science.  Although he found his career very rewarding, he felt inexplicably drawn to the energy healing practices of eastern Asia. So, in 2001, he decided to leave his life behind and studied Traditional Chinese Medicine (which includes acupuncture and herbal training). He left Dublin and studied in Beijing, China and after that came back to live in Galway in the west of Ireland to set up his practice.
     
    During his studies, he developed a growing interest in the life force, Qi and energetic medicine. He trained as a Celtic shaman in Galway and started to combine his tree/plant training with this practice. He started to combine these modalities together in a complete system of healing.
     
    During this time, he met many Master Shamans and Druids whom he trained under and got guidance from and learnt respect for the spiritual energy of life.
     
    Ian feels honored to have this opportunity to share the knowledge and gifts of this sacred land with people worldwide.
