Celtic Tree Astrology

Most people are familiar with Western and Chinese astrology, but did you know that there are other forms? One such form is Celtic Tree astrology, created by Celtic Druids who assigned a tree to letters of the Ogham, or Shamanic alphabet. Unlike Western and Chinese astrology, there are 13 Celtic Tree astrology signs instead of 12. As you’ll see, they’re similar to the Western signs that occur at the same time:
