Duir

Missing image
The Oak is the king of all trees
Sacred with the ability
To experience life while changing become
Who they were meant to be as wise guardian.

Symbol of truth and steadfast knowledge of the soul
To rise above the human vices of greed to know,
That self sacrifice will bring ye closer to the thy ‘Self’
Creative and generous of spirit to the wealth

Of leadership with a breadth of solid integrity as a vision.
Easily inspiring others with a personal magnetism.
Calm during a crisis and are not easily swayed,
Speaking the truth no matter the consequences weighed.

Optimistic
Philosophic

Determined responsibility to survive,
Enthusiastic sense of humor to arrive
Enjoying life's many confrontations
Formidable enemy to opposition.

Alias as Moon of strength, security and the Bear,
Bright as the sun and intuitive as the night with care.
Jupiter rules this tree of Wisdom with tenacity
In freedom, tolerance in abundance and plenty.

White horse it’s delineation of endurance
Stamina and faithful loyalty in resilience.
Wren and Otter are King Oak’s totems of wit
Hawk as subtle joy of life cunning forthwith.

Clear of sight and of memory far
In musical notes a shooting star.
Understands that power is a small price to pay
and utilizes gifts of kindness with fair play.

Summer solstice the White Horse of the Oak becomes
The Unicorn of the Holly in transformation.

    Truly a marvel of spiritual invocation and
    rhyming adjourn into the beliefs of the Druid.
    I can't find a thing missing here that is associated
    with this spirit! Actually, there is much added here
    that I was not aware of. Thanks! Blue
