This ogham displays your obvious identity, the part of you that everyone knows.

Ur Blocked

Tree/Plant: Heather
Kenning: ‘Flower of Dreams’

Blocked Heather is escapism, false hope, or emotional dissociation. Dreams without grounding become fantasy. Tend your dreams like gardens, not castles in the air. Hope is sacred—not to be wasted on illusions.

Spiritual Lesson: Dreams demand roots as much as wings.
Reflective Question: What fragile dream do I need to protect and nourish?
Affirmation: ‘I dream with rooted hope.’

This ogham shows unconscious driving forces that neither you nor your company is aware of about you. This is the Great Unknown.

Tinne

Tree/Plant: Holly
Kenning: ‘Warrior’s Crown’

Tinne, the battle tree, grants you the armour of spirit. Now is the time for honourable combat—whether internal or external. Holly speaks to inner resilience, self-defence, and strategic action. You are not called to start wars, but to win them if they come. Focus your energy. Fight for what feeds your soul, not your vanity.

Spiritual Lesson: Victory is hollow without a worthy cause.
Reflective Question: What is truly worth fighting for now?
Affirmation: ‘I wear the crown of sacred battle.’

The secrets you keep from others are shown by this ogham.

Saille

Tree/Plant: Willow
Kenning: ‘Sweeping Elegance’

The Willow bends but does not break. Saille teaches the mastery of emotion—the art of yielding without defeat. Here, grief is not an enemy but a river to be crossed, danced with, and honoured. Your feelings are powerful allies, not burdens. Dreamtime, prophecy, and creativity surge through the Willow’s domain. Trust your tears, your visions, your poetic instincts. They are the currents carrying you toward deeper wisdom.

Spiritual Lesson: Mastery of emotion is achieved through movement, not denial.
Reflective Question: Where am I refusing to let grief or inspiration flow?
Affirmation: ‘I bend; I do not break.’

This is your Blind Spot. This is what you asked about - what you wished to be made aware of by this reading.

Fearn Blocked

Tree/Plant: Alder
Kenning: ‘Shield of the Warriors’

When Alder is blocked, the call to act becomes a coward’s retreat or a reckless charge. You may be standing in the wrong battle, wasting blood for pride. Or worse, refusing a battle that desperately needs your presence. Beware false peace. Some bridges must be burned before the right ones can be built. Know what you are fighting for—and what you are willing to surrender.

Spiritual Lesson: Strength is found not in stubbornness, but in sacred resilience.
Reflective Question: What cause truly deserves my courage right now?
Affirmation: ‘I am the bridge and the battleground.’
