For both beliefs, the Trinity Knot symbolized the way in which the three separate essences were vitally interconnected. To Christians, it illustrated the essential core of Christian belief where God was the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Thus, trees were considered living entities, possessed with Infinite Knowledge and Wisdom…symbolically representative of the Cycle of Life, Death and Renewal, and symbolically connected with the three planes of existence: mind, body, and spirit. These energies were identified with spirits and the Celtic Druids believed that trees were given these spirits, who dwelt within, and were perceived as attributes of the Supreme Being. The Druid religion was based mainly upon an awareness of natural and supernatural energies. As such the Celtic Zodiac is based upon the cycles of the Moon, with the year divided into the 13 lunar months established by the Druid religion. In time, the Celtic people eventually designated a tree to each of the 13 Moon Phase’s in their calendar, in accordance with its magical properties. The Celts envisioned the entire Universe in the form of a tree, whose roots grew deep below (in the ground) and whose branches reached up high (into the Heavens). Each tree has particular magical qualities whose secret mysteries come from the ancient Celtic alphabet, the Ogram. The year is divided into 13 lunar months, with a tree (sacred to the druids) assigned to each month. The Celtic Zodiac is drawn from the beliefs of the Druids and is based on the cycles of the moon. It is based on an ancient Celtic symbol system.
