Vernal Equinox - Governed by Gorse

20/3/2017

 Welcome to the Spring or Vernal Equinox
Equinoxes are the other half of the solstices - when there are equal hours of light and dark. The word equinox is Latin for "equal night". The vernal equinox is the real beginning of spring. Each day the light will grow giving everything hope! The Druids recognized that the Gorse is a voracious light seeker and governed this time of the yearly cycle.
They also understood it was an opportunistic plant, observing the seeds flinging off the parent (mostly on the warmest, brightest days) distancing themselves as far as possible in order to begin a new colony free to have more sun to themselves without the crowding branches of the parent nearby.
We may translate this behavior in our own lives when we feel we are being overshadowed or staunched into a certain pigeon hole. It may be time to leap out on our own and find our own sunny trails. When conformity becomes the norm, the Gorse reminds us to always seek the higher road, the path of light.The bright golden flowers come most strongly around this time so the hillsides do indeed seem to burn with gold. The flowers blossom just in time to feed the newly woken bees - and bees are sun-beings and spirit carriers.
For the deeper delvers - The GORSE Oracle says - It’s time to gather your thoughts and come to a better understanding of your resources. You might be trying to force an issue – Transformation happens when you least expect it.
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.
