Thank you Laura, that was beautiful

thank you for sharing this information...really good video...and whenever i see a birch i just have to have a hug...love how the bark feels

Lovely video thanks Laura ❤

Love all your video's please dont stop.

Thanks Layla :)

the native Americans used the bark as a skin on their canoes as it is water proof if you ever look at old cowboy type films you may see it there it looks like big square shaped patches also our ancestors would drink or make a syrup from the sap when it runs in spring great video

Very nice video very nice spoken I love the aesthetic of the video I love the poems very nice for some simple knowledge on Birch

wonderful video, I love the gloves too, she should definitely think about selling them. hugs Sara

I keep drawing the rune "Berkana" which is the Birch. Thanks for this beautiful homage to this tree of many gifts :)

Thank you! :)

I love how your videos are informative, interesting, and well produced. Keep it up, please!

Definitely! I love the Elder - will do it soon. Thanks.

Lovely video as always Laura. The Birch has always been one of my very favorite trees. I think I will have to go hug one and spend a bit of quality time before January is over! Thank you so much! Blessings!

wonderful Laura, really interesting information, can't wait for the next one, x

Originally brooms were made of broom.The planta genista is a hardy shrub with long,straight branches ending with yellow blooms,that can endure rough use in this way.Godefroi d'Anjou (Geoffrey of Anjou,father of Henry II of England) placed a sprig in his helm as a badge,by which the family earned its name,Plantagenet.Your series is a marvelous bridge to greater knowledge!Thanks and Cheers!

Thank you very much for watching :)

I was just looking up birch :) wonderful video

beautiful video, i love how you are so informative, keep up the good work! I'm looking forward to your next video :)

Thank you Sir :) x

BTW: Of course, the besom is itself a fertility symbol and has other uses, in addition to sweeping out sacred space. Interestingly, the Futhorc Rune Beorc is generally associated with the Birch, but The Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem says, in part, of the Birch: "... is without fruit, it bears even so, it bears shoots instead of fruit ..." This has led to the conjecture that the Beorc Rune was actually an icon of the Black Poplar tree and not the Birch. --Brightest Blessings

Great video Laura!

I have always, since a young child, have loved and felt an "affection" for the Birch Tree. Thank you for your wisdom, insight and gentle teaching! )0(

Hey Laura, Are you going to go through the entire tree calender? I'd really like to see you cover the Rowan tree.

Thank you for sharing and posting, you have a pleasant 'stage presence.' I'm am pleased you didn't fail to mention the role of birch with regard to the traditional besom, viz., "Besom, besom, witch's broom Sweep out evil, sweep out ill Make the round of the ground Where we do the Lady's will ..." Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for posting a fine video. Brightest Blessings.

Thank you Julie!

in swedish folk magic, birch gum gathered in may is used to open one's heart

Thank you Hyliea!

Thank you very much Jessica :)

Lovely! Thank you :)

I've been reading about Pendle Hill.... Have you visited that place ? Thank you for sharing all of your adventures.

your gloves are awesome!

Hi :) Thanks for your question, a lot of pre Christian lore states that the New Year starts after Samhain, on Nov 1st, and yes that would in Pagan terms be the New Year. I say new year as it's our 'cultures' New Year - and the Birch is the first tree after the rebirth of the Sun. Robert Graves wrote in the White Goddess this to be the order of the Tree Calendar, however this has been debated, and I've books in which the author creates their own Tree calendar/Ogham based on their favourite trees.

I'm glad - thanks! :)

Thank you :)

great video! can you do one on the elder tree?

beautiful :)

Hi, up until the 27th it is Ivy (Gort) and from the 28th October it is Reed (Ngetal) :)

I placed a piece of birch into a house clearing spray how should I use it, I should chant or ask the help of Venus, you said it was a loving energy so I could use in positivity sprays ? I'd like to hear what you'd do thanks for the video, you are lovely

I am a little confused as to why there are slightly different versions of the tree calendar. For example; the book I have, The Healing Power of Trees by Sharlyn Hidalgo, has the year starting November 1st. Just like to know your thoughts on that. =)

I hmmm i would like to know what is the tree for October preferably late October going over the 28th

I love your videos! Thank you sooo much for sharing! ........................I just wanted to say I like your gloves, Who are they by?
