Many alders grow along the creeks where I live. Always being careful not to trample the small creatures who blend into the creekside environment, I love to walk along these creeks. Being among the alders I feel their protection and wisdom. Sitting next to an alder along a creek is indeed a wonderful place to let go down to what really matters and to receive real natural strength. In addition, the odds of connecting with faery are good! You've inspired me to get back out there. Thankyou!
I love trees! I grew up around ancient woodland, played there as a child and the garden at my childhood home is mostly a spinney so I lived with the trees-almost in the woods really for many years. Great video :-)
Excellent video - you had loads of information which I omitted from my video about alder trees as knowledge of this tree isn't expansive online. Loving the spiritual / folklore aspects you included. Subbed.
They're everywhere around Seattle- I'm told they're the first trees to grow in poor soil, improving it for others later, so it's like they bring bare ground under their branches, under protection.
I started to feel love for trees ...always like them but this was different. ..if branches were damaged etc it's like I felt it like pain etc...I now see that it's part my path but didn't even think about witchcraft at the time...many things naturally led me to it!!! Thx for your videos lots info that others don't offer...you are beautiful ...all the best...
Hi Sophie, that sounds like a good idea for a video :). Yup there are a good few books out there. Also if you can find and Open Pagan/Wiccan group in your area, you can go to Open Rituals to get a taste of what it's like. Spend time in nature, tune into and follow the cycles of nature, the seasons and the waxing and waning of the moon. That's a good place to start! :) x
Aww thank you! Apologies for the delayed reply, it was a busy week. It was last Wednesday, and thank you for thinking of me! :) I hope you enjoy the energy of the Alder! :) x
In the movie (Isn't she great) with Bette Midler - The movie is about the person that wrote (The valley of the dolls) and in the movie the writer is talking to a large tree then later on introduces the tree to her soon to be husband..
love this series thank you for sharing. i asked before when you would be doing the elder tree and you said you would do it later in the series. do you have an idea of when you can do the elder tree? thanks again for this great series.
Nice presentation Laura :) Alder is perfect for shields as it is uniquely water-proof - the last thing you want is a damp and rotten shield :)
I love that :) Thanks :)

The Fender Stratocaster "Standard" guitar is made out of Alder

Oh! I didn't know :) in that case, enjoy learning, spend time enjoying nature - there is plenty of time to learn the rest. X
alder seems to be the wood i should use as a wand

You should do relaxation videos.. You have the perfect voice.
I'd like have this info written down...is there a way to get it so can print it out...???
Go to the bookstore, read, study, and learn all you can.
this is wonderful:)
Blessing to you )o(
Wiccan do as we please....
think you will be doing the elder tree soon?
Can you do one on Rowan trees or mountain ash
yay! my birth tree...do they grow in USA? I must research...I'd love to have a fallen stick from one : )
pipes and whistles are made from Elder rather than Alder. There is no pith in alder. Love the videos though!!
It's my birth tree
