Celtic Ogham Few Information.

The Ogham Fews, also known as tree runes or Druidic runes are a wonderful tool

to use to help sentient beings heal, make decisions, grow, handle problems, transform

energies and evolve. Historically, we dont know exactly HOW they were used, we

just know they WERE used. This system is my own understanding, based on general

research and inspiration from a spiritual being I knew as The Merlin and from

Dragons. This is, in spite of the fact, that these originated, according to mythology,with the Celtic Being known as Ogma.

We find the trees being named, along with their attributes, in the Welsh Battle of the

Trees (Cad Goddeau). Robert Graves, in his book THE WHITE GODDESS saw them

as a poetic system of spirituality. Some claimed they were an everyday script;

others, that they were a sacred script like Hebrew or Sanskrit; while others claimed

they were a powerful system of magick in their own right, like their cousin, the

Teutonic runes. They have a presence, even in fantasy literature. Ursula le Guin, in

her EARTHSEA trilogy, hints about them when she discusses the sacred grove of trees

as part of this magical world. At present, many serious, dedicated Neo-Pagans, Druids

and Mages are researching and reconstructing their purpose and uses. Apparently

the Druids used trees to represent Universal Forces and archetypes. Each tree had aspecial place in their world view and a special symbol to represent it.

Introduction to the Fews.


2/12



If you look at the Ogham Fews as symbolic images that the subconscious uses for

communicating with your conscious mind, it will be very helpful in your explorations.

They are actually more than that, but this is a good to start with. So how do we get to

know the Fews on different levels?

First, like the tarot, you need to have them about your person for about a week; have

them under your pillow as you go to sleep at night. This way your subconscious gets

used to them and they get integrated with your energies. When you are ready, draw

out a few from your bag and see what it is. Next, ask yourself if youve had any

3/12



experiences with the tree you drew out and what you know about it. For an example,

say you draw out the Hawthorn. So see what you remember as a kid about the tree.

How it had long pointed needles on it and white flowers. How you used to play under

it as a child. Then you might recall learning at the health food store how hawthorn

berry tea or extract is used to help the human heart be healthy. Then you may recall

hearing that fairies like hawthorn trees. So you jot down what you know on computer

or a notebook and start compiling what you are learning.

Next go to the woods and explore all of the local trees. You might discover that there

are mainly pin oaks in your area; and that rowan is hard to find but black walnut iseasy. See how the trees are part of nature. Take both an ecology and a botany class

so you understand the physical functioning of plants and exactly how they fit into your

local ecosystem. See if you can get a special plant walk from your local specialists.

Find a guidebook that discusses trees of your region of the USA.

Next go to the library, surf the web; see what has been written about them. Find

Robert Graves book, THE WHITE GODDESS. Find the Welsh story called BATTLE OF

THE TREES. Look into the local herb and folklore of your area as youll have to make

these real for your part of the world. These are gifts from our ancestors to those of

us whove wandered all over the world. Learn the medical herbal lore and what ones

are used in Flower Remedies. Some of these are toxic like the Yew, Ivy and the

Mistletoe. Others are used as teas or food like the Apple or the Grape. Dont assume

a plant is edible until youve researched it, even then work with a medical herbalist so

you get the right species and way to use it for those of you who may want to use

medically.

Meditate on the symbols themselves and see what they show you. Dialog with the

trees in your minds eye and ask them for knowledge. Offer to take responsibility for

a small area of a park or grove of trees as a gift back to them. Draw the few in a

glass of water with the intention of consuming wisdom and then drink the fluid,

knowing you are bringing knowledge closer to the surface. Make a cake with the few

drawn on it in color and eat it as another way of taking in this knowledge. If you

have connections to spirits from the old country, ask their help.

Approach them in a spirit of play and youll go far, as long as you keep a bit serious

too. But dont rush anything, enjoy your learning and your play. In time these

meanings and even the spreads I have designed and included for you will trigger you

into your own knowings and associations

Using Fionns Window.

Creating Sigils on Fionns Window is a lot like connecting the numbers except you are

turning a word or name into an abstract symbol of power. When you start, draw a

circle over the Ogham few that begins the word or name. Next connect fews until you

reach the last letter when you make a slash mark. Treat small phrases similarly.

Just create each word separately. If you have 2 letters that are the same, loop the

line.

Fewsets and their creation.

Sacred scripts throughout history, have been utilized to aid in accomplishing various

purposes, be they spiritual or secular. The resultant patterns are often called runesor charms. In honor of the Celtic Ogham Fews, I call these patterns Fewsets.

Please note that these are not the same as Sigils, though they serve a similar

purpose. By the way, the Ogham Fews and Fewsets work well with Reiki, especially

for healing animals, plants and Gaia.

The Fewsets design can be linear or circular, graceful or precise, tiny or huge,

spacious or compact or whatever you feel led to do with it, depending on your

intentions. They can be carved, painted, designed on a PC, drawn on dirt or sand,

visualized in the mind and projected outward, they can be drawn using incense smoke

or with food color and eaten on food. Let your imagination be your guide. They can

be intuitively combined or spell out a purpose, goal or energy. Most of what you see

on the charts were intuitive combining, done in the past. I tend to place small dots

between fews, but not always. It depends on how everything looks. The designs

can grow with you. Some are basic and will stay that way. I have Fewsets that I

have used over the years, including Fewsets to be added to your ritual tools.

Here is an example of intuitively creating a Fewset. As an aside, when you banish a

negative energy (even if you ARE transforming it into positive energy), make sure to

follow up and fill the vacuum with a positive energy. Take the situation that you want

to change and place it in the center, then you surround it with fews for change. Say

you are tired of bad luck, and would like a breather from this energy for a while.

You also want to transform what you are experiencing now into good luck and be able

to cope while you are processing the shift. You want all this in a simple Fewset. First

you draw the blackthorn in the center of a line. Next you add the Vine right

beside the blackthorn; this turns it into the Elder, a major transformation few, while

helping you find discipline. Next you add the white poplar, which you draw

over the blackthorn. This helps you put distance between you and the bad luck whileyou heal that which is within that is attracting it. Finally you add both the oak and

the white birch. The oak gives strength and good luck; the birch brings in vitality and

new positive beginnings. (I like symmetry and working with mirror images, so I

repeat it at both ends.) Then since I surrounded the blackthorn with the other fews,

i have placed a Sacred grove at one end and a Mistletoe at the other just because it

feels right. Split them up if youd rather. So the final basic fewset looks like below.

If you like boundaries, you can place it in a circle, square etc. I recommend you

enclose your name and other special Fewsets. They can be on their side or top to

bottom. Please always add an extra positive Fewset to strengthen the positive

change you started here. Theres the bad joke from when I was first starting on the

magical/spiritual path. Nature abhors a vacuum, thats why witches ride brooms . .

10/12



A fewset that spells out your purpose can be created in the following way. Say you

want to bring the energy of abundance into your life and want to create an abundance

fewset. So you spell it out in Ogham: A/Silver Pine-B/Birch-U/Heather-N/Ash-D/Oak-

A/Silver Pine-N/Ash-C/Hazel-E/White Poplar. Here is a square, continual, looping

version. The Fewsets can have other symbols added to them, like the male dragon

symbol I added to the abundance fewset. Just make sure the energies of the

different symbols feel compatible and if the other system allows intermingling.

Determination of Spirits using the Ogham Fews.

Determination of spirits and entities in a situation, no matter what it is, can be useful;

especially if they are not seen by the Lightworker. This is best done using a link to

the situation, unless someone in the know tells you that things are dormant and you

can sniff around. The following are NOT traditional meanings and usage of the fews;

they were revealed to me in meditation. You need the reading cloth and only the

following Ogham Fews in your bag: Mistletoe, Beech, St. Johns Worts, Morning Glory,

Ocean, Honeysuckle, Heather, Grove, Willow, Elder, Yew, Oak, Silver Pine, the Wild

Rose and Blackthorn.

You hold the link and the bag in both hands and see their energies merging so the

fews can speak to you. Then you place the link aside and draw out a few or two. If

several come out together, that is a strong indication, but you see what all comes out

and stop drawing the fews when you recognize a combination. Note the Blackthorn

has a general meaning but with different fews it has different meanings. I was shown

the following combinations to mean the following Entities.

Astral Beings (General): Grove plus Hawthorn

Curses: Blackthorn plus willow &/or Beech (from a past life)

Demons: Blackthorn (Morning Glory may be present; if the Wild Rose is present you

may have a demon from a ceremonial magic grimoire or tradition (such as the Lesser
