Celtic Zodiac Hawthorn Pen

(Crataegus Spp.)

Northern Europe and America

May 13 to June 9

 

If you were born under the Hawthorn Moon (May 13 to Jun 9) you tend to be a busy, social person who likes to take the lead and get involved with organizing events. You may be a natural performer, and always take a protective stance for those that are close to you.

 

According to myth, the Hawthorn tree was the source for the Christ’s crown of thorns. Ancient Celts believed the tree could cure a broken heart. American pioneers used the wood for tool handles.

 

The black Celtic Knot on the top of the pen is not an applique, but inlaid ebony.
