Part of a series of videos on the folklore, symbolism and Mythology of various flowers, plants, herbs and trees of Britain, Ireland and Northern Europe.

The Oak tree. The door tree. Tree of Kingship. Tree of Druids; of magic, knowledge and wisdom.

Protection, love and honour.

Tree of Zeus, of Jove of Thor
of the Dagda, of the good gods.
Duir in the Ogham. Door.

The Oak; tree of kings, tree of Fionn, tree of the Green Man waxing.

All hail summers King!

All hail the gates of life and death.

Through the oak portal my friends!

Deeper into the forest.
