Alright due to the constant encouragement of various people I’ve volunteered to do this lesson. Now if you don’t know the druids are a very tree based group of magical practioners they hold nature on a very high pedestal as do most nature based religions. And as a result of this high respect for it we vitalize the various aspects of nature in our magick. Today I’m going to talk about tree magick a aspect of druid magick I like to pride myself in but that’s neither here nor there lol. Alright first off I would like just to give a list of the magical properties (or magickal uses I guess you could say) of trees then segway into the druidic sacred trees.
