Midwinter Holly Greetings Card by Meraylah Allwood

£2.45

A charming card with sprigs of holly surrounding a bright flame. Reproduced from a painting originally done for “The Wisdom of Trees Oracle”.

In Celtic lore, the Holly King versus the Oak King was a metaphor for the changing of the seasons. The evergreen holly symbolized the enduring nature of life during the dark days of winter, while the deciduous oak symbolized the fullness of life during the light-filled days of summer. When the oak dropped its leaves in autumn, the evergreen leaves of holly became symbols of hope for continued life.

This card comes cellophane wrapped and is 100mm x 1150mm (4 inches by 6 inches). It's blank inside for you to write your own message.
