Description
The old Fairy Tree at the hill of Tara, Meath, Ireland is one of my favourite places in the world. Usually, we tie a rag loosely to the branch and make a wish. Other's leave small gifts or weave some grass to tie on it. Some call it the Rag Tree and other's a Prayer Tree. People have been asked to stop sticking coins into the bark as this was damaging this ancient Hawthorn. there is a lovely timeless energy in this place and is worth a visit if you come to Ireland. My daughter in this image decided to get into the tree and give it a hug!
