Holly: Oyster

By S.F. Skyheart - May 16, 2024

Each of the Celtic trees correlates with an animal symbol. The Celtic month of Holly, May 16 - June 12, is associated with:

Animal: Oyster

According to The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit deck, Oyster represents unmatched focus and determination. Anything an oyster personality puts their mind to, they achieve with grace and charm. They are very patient, generous, and wonderful confidants who will keep your secrets. Sometimes oyster types can take their gifts for granted, doubt themselves or feel imposter syndrome, which can lead to withdrawing or protecting their deepest desires and life's work. Oyster reminds us that it is important to reveal your inner treasures because the world needs your beautiful contributions!

This may be your sign to focus on something you've been putting off, or to share a hidden talent or skill with someone who will appreciate it. Take care not to stay closed off or withhold yourself from others. Find ways to allow friends into your space so they can celebrate your gifts and reciprocate your generosity and kindness. You deserve to receive love and support as much as you've given it to your loved ones.

Do what lights you up,
Sadie

Please note: Some people start the tree calendar with Birch in January, which follows the solar calendar. However, I learned them in an older tradition, which aligns with the 13-month lunar calendar. It's up to you to discern what feels right for you, of course.
