** Celtic Tree Astrology ~ Hazel ** Hazel - The Knower August 5 - September 1 If you are born under the energy of the Hazel, you are highly intelligent, organized and efficient. Like the Holly, you are naturally gifted in academia, and excel in the classroom. You also have the ability to retain information and can recall, recite and expound on subjects youve memorized with amazing accuracy. You know your facts, and you are always well informed. This sometimes makes you appear like a know-it-all to others, but you cant help that; youre genuinely smart and usually know the right course of action because of your impressive knowledge base. You have an eye for detail, and like things to be “just so.” Sometimes this need for order and control can lead to compulsive behaviors if left unchecked. You have a knack for numbers, science and things that utilize your analytical skills. You like rules, although you are typically making them rather than playing by them. The Celtic tree astrology sign of Hazel joins harmoniously with Hawthorn and Rowans. According to Celtic Astrology you were born under the Hazel moon, a time for focussing on gaining more knowledge and wisdom and enhancing your senses and awareness. Magical skills and knowledge are believed to be gained from eating Hazel nuts. People perceive you to be very wise, artistic and understanding although you find it hard to grasp this conception of yourself, you are a radical thinker and an idealist; it will be worth your while to gain understanding of your inner strength and identity. As a Hazel child you may feel heavily burdened with being so wise and knowledgeable but as you mature it will become one of your most valuable assets, for the Hazel contains all the knowledge of the world and make superb teachers. In Celtic Astrology the animal associated with August 5 – September 1 is the Salmon whose Gaelic name is Bradan (pronounced as bra-TAN.) As a salmon person you are remarkably fresh, inspiring and wise in your thinking, a clever being that has knowledge of the arts and science. You like to take the initiative with projects in life and have great communication skills. You are a very perceptive and intuitive person who is a keen observer of life with a connection to the mystical side of life. The Hazel encourages us to seek out information and inspiration in all things and emphasizes the value of the enquiring mind and of learning of all kinds. Just as the hazel concentrates all its goodness and its continued existence in the kernel of its fruit, so we attain wisdom by reducing knowledge down to its purest form and passing it on down the ages. Through meditating on the essence of wisdom, we gain creative inspiration. Like the limbs of the hazel, we must remain pliant in our approach to learning. Concentrated thought in an open mind can, like the hazel, become a connection with the divine source of all things. The hazel teaches us the noble arts of learning, teaching, communication, and healing. The hazel produces its nuts in fall, after having spent the year building the inner strength to protect them. The shell of this nut is so hard, in fact, and contains its treasure so well, that is was the inspiration for the phrase in a nutshell. Born under the sign of the hazel tree, you also have an inner treasure to offer - the fruits of your knowledge. Your wisdom and ability to communicate ideas make you capable of transforming the thoughts and opinions of others. Be careful how you wield your word-wizardry. Wakening from the dreaming forest there, the hazel-sprig sang under my tongue, its drifting fragrance climbed up through my conscious mind as if suddenly the roots I had left behind cried out to me, the land I had lost with my childhood - and I stopped, wounded by the wandering scent. - Pablo Neruda Whatsyoursign/goddesstree
