The Scottish Thistle Meaning
The Scottish thistle is the national emblem of Scotland for more than 500 years.
Legend of the Scottish thistle tells us that long ago when the Danes invaded Scotland by surprise, wearing no shoes and in the dark, one of them stepped on a thistle, cried out and alerted the Scots and prevented a terrible slaughter. The grateful Scots adopted the thistle as a symbol of their nation, and it became known as “The Guardian Thistle”. Sadly, there is no historical evidence to back up the tale.Whatever its origins, the thistle is one of the most important Scottish symbols.
Adder/Snake - Celtic Animal Sign
In Celtic Zodiac, Adder people have a virtue of resourcefulness, which is one of their greatest strengths. They have also a strong interest in family and excellent memory. They are curious and are always full of questions about how the world works.The snake has long been associated with wisdom and reincarnation.The adder is the only venomous snake found in the British Isles and has the same reputation. The Druids carried an amulet called gloine nathair (serpent glass), which was alleged to be formed from the eggs of an adder. The snake was also thought to embody masculine power, and In the Scottish Highlands, it symbolized the Cailleach's power. Celtic warriors wore a torque with a two-headed snake symbol which embodies this power.
