The broad wings of the guardian tree, holds a special place in history, cleft way back through the tree-rings of time, to the Viking age and beyond where it is revered as ‘Yggdrasil’ the connecting element in all worlds, the Tree of Life, of guardianship, rebirth and healing
The strong yet graceful Ash, is cherished for its true fine-grain, to make a handle for an axe, to a spoon for a newborn.
