Draw One Ogham

 

 

Difficulty: Easiest

The one-ogham reading is ideal for focusing on just one thing without potential complications. It can be used for just about any question, including to draw a ogham of the day, week, or month. It can also be used repetitively, pulling one ogham at a time to watch a story unfold.

Beith

• Tree/Plant: Birch
• Kenning: ‘Brightest of Trees’

The path clears before you, washed clean by the rains of old griefs. Beith marks the sacred threshold: a pure beginning, unburdened by yesterday’s debris. You are given leave to start again—with clarity, with lightness. This is the white bark of renewal, sacred to Druids as the tree of purification and rebirth. You are called to honour your beginning without apology, even if it feels fragile. Innocence is not weakness. Every ancient forest was once a single trembling sapling.

• Spiritual Lesson: Purification requires surrender; beginnings require mourning.
• Reflective Question: What old story must I finally lay to rest to allow my rebirth?
• Affirmation: ‘I welcome the purity of the unknown.’
