Celtic Tree of Life Keychain
|
The Celtic Tree of Life is another great representation of the Celtic heritage and their spirituality. The tree of life keychain is constructed of pewter. The length of the Celtic Tree of Life keychain is approximately 1 1/2 inches.
The Tree of Life is a significant symbol in just about every culture. Its branches reach into the sky, the roots are deep in the earth, it dwells in three worlds- a link between heaven, the earth, and the underworld, uniting above and below. It is both a feminine symbol, bearing sustenance; and a masculine, visibly phallic symbol- another union.
The Tree of life was a central part of early Celtic spirituality. In Celtic Mythology the Tree of Life was thought to represent the 3 stages of life. To the Celts, the tree was also a source of basic nourishment- a bearer of food, a provider of shelter and fuel for cooking and warmth. Without trees, life would have been extraordinarily difficult.
