Trees only grow more beautiful.
Ogham Output:
The Language of Trees and Tara Sophia
Ogham is more than just a script; it is the language of the trees, sacred guardians of wisdom in Celtic lore. Each Ogham letter is deeply tied to a tree and its archetype, a symbol of life, protection, and insight. As you work with Ogham, you are entering into a relationship with the trees spirits themselves—each symbol, like Beith (ᚁ) for birch or Sail (ᚄ) for willow, opens a portal to the energies they represent.
The strokes of Ogham, often carved vertically along stones or wood, represent the branches of a sacred grove, each mark offering its own message of power, growth, or protection. When we cast Ogham symbols or inscribe them in your magical workings, we call upon Tara Sophia, and open ourselves to her whispers in the trees.
The Power of Symbols and the Unspoken
One of the most beautiful mysteries of Ogham is its gaps—those sounds and letters that modern languages use, but which Ogham chooses to leave unspoken. Letters like “K,” “Y,” and “V” do not exist in Ogham, and this teaches us that some truths are best left in the silence of the forest, in the space between breaths. For example, the sound for “K” may be carried by the symbol for “C,” or “Y” by the symbol for “I,” reminding us that language itself is fluid, mystical, and alive.
"We are quiet because the voices within speak the loudest."
The absence of these letters serves as a reminder that language is as much about intuition and feeling as it is about structure. Ogham encourages us to find our intuition in the spaces between. Hidden keys serve as protection, keeping negative intentions from crashing the sacred grove.
In all your spellcraft & divination, remember that what is not said is as powerful as what is spoken. Keeping your own counsel is a longstanding and wise practice of protection and power.
