The Green Man

The Green Man is the symbol of irrepressible life. He is the spirt that stirs the primal urge to grow and renew. No matter how much the Earth is covered or subdued, the wild will always find a way to break through. 

The Green Man is an ancient, primal figure—wild and untamed, a spirit of the natural world. No one knows exactly where he originated from, and though his roots stretch deep pre-Christianity, it is now in the shadowed arches of Gothic cathedrals that he lingers. Carved into the stone of sacred places, his visage watches over the faithful, his foliage-bound face a reminder of forgotten ways. He can be found in the hallowed halls of Bamberg, Chartres, Dijon, Norwich, and Fribourg, his presence a silent testament to old magic, to old rites. In Exeter Cathedral alone, twenty Green Men guard the sacred space, their twisted, leafy forms whispering of ancient powers still entwined with the stone.

Petition the Green Man when you need to reconnect with nature and to channel the energy of the wilderness. He may also assist in fertility magick and rejuvenation spells.
