Friday, November 6th, 2009
The Green Man, also known as the Man in the Tree, is a Druidic icon that represents humanity’s kinship with the woods and the trees, the cycle of birth and renewal, and irrepressible life. Also known as Derg Corra, the Man in the Tree is accompanied by a stag. He is known as the Celtic guardian of Knowledge. The Green Man is a symbol whose existence pre-dates that of Christianity. He is usually shown as a male head formed as a leaf mask.
