Observations and Anecdotal Information

Known in ancient European lore as the Goddess Tree, elder is associated with Venus, Hilde, and the universal goddess energy.

In Europe, elder trees were planted in cemeteries, to keep “evil spirits” away.  Elder is known as a protector, especially in psychic and spiritual realms.

Elder is regarded as a tree of thresholds; involved in birth, death, and rebirth.  The spiritual energy is one of transformation.

Elder is associated with Crone energy; that of the wise woman, seer, and healer.  One of its great teachings is that of respect.  Its energy reminds people of the need for honor and respect, in life and in death.

Elder flower absolute energetically supports us in learning from our mistakes, forgiving, and moving forward so that we can see the good within us and the good things that we have done.
