The Celtic Tree Zodiac

ᚃAlder

Celtic tree zodiac · Mar 18 – Apr 14 · Ogham Fearn · the Fox

The alder month of the Celtic tree calendar (Mar 18 – Apr 14), paired with the fox in the animal zodiac.

Alder is the tree of courage and pathfinding: the nerve to go first and cut a way through uncertain ground. With the fox's cunning, wit, and adaptability, it finds the clever route — its lesson is to use that quickness in the open, not only in the shadows.
