Next in my dnd party’s level 10 (actually 11 now my bad😅) redesigns is Yew! My twilight cleric satyr! She’s an empty-headed, heart-full, moonlight wandering champion on Selune!  She hails from the most northern reaches of our setting so it was nice making her outfit reflect that a bit more🌙🐏❄️
She’s been absolutely going through it as of late, having met Shar, dying a few times, and losing some family on her journey. But getting to wear armor that previously belonged to an avatar of Selune doesn’t hurt!

This originally was going to be a painting apron, but at the time, I hadn't gotten top surgery, and I never felt good about wearing this.
Lo and behold I don't actually use it for painting but I do absolutely clean my apartment in it and have a great time feeling like a little Brownie listening to music.
It's nice to be back at the gym after surgery, and it's nice to *kind of* feel good about my fantasy dwarven adjacent shaped body lol.

Legends and myths about trees
Celtic beliefs in trees (26)
I for Idho (Yew) - December 21st Winter Solstice 
“Death of a king in his waning 6 months - The Celtic Tree Calendar (Ref), the end of the beginning, the beginning of the end ...”         
Colour: dark green; Star: Saturn; Gemstone: olivine; Gender: female; Metal: lead, Element: earth; Patron: Banba, Hecate; Symbols: resurrection, death + rebirth, eternity, path to meet ancestors + land of the soul
Today is the winter solstice, also called the hibernal solstice, the day in the northern hemisphere when the sun is at its lowest altitude in the south and day is shortest and night longest during the year (reversed in the southern hemisphere).
Yew is an evergreen tree with dark green leaves and red berries. The yew is a robust tree with a thick girth and an extremely long life. It is probably the longest lived of all trees.
As soon as the downward reaching branches reach the ground, the tree begins to grow strongly, as if it has been reborn as a new tree. The eldest living yew tree is in Europe is said to be the Fortingall Yew, in Perthshire, Scotland, and it has been estimated between 3000 to 9000 years old.
In addition, the yew's hollowed-out heartwood, especially when wet, looks like a flayed animal, and when cut it appears to bleed, so the yew is increasingly said to be a sacred tree. Yew sticks were believed to be able to divine the future, and yew sticks were used as 'writing pillars' to engrave the Ogham script, as they could be preserved almost forever.
As the druids believed the natural law of reincarnation, where the soul becomes reborn as another person, the yew was seen as a protector of the soul during the journey to the Otherworld. Some believe that the road to the Otherworld is shaded by rows of yew trees. Furthermore, the yew is said to stop any obstacles caused by evil spirits from the other world.
As a sacred 'tree of immortality', believed to protect and purify the dead, yews are often planted in cemeteries, many of which are as old as the church or much older.

ケルト人の樹木の信仰 (26)
IはIdho (イチイ) - 12月21日 冬至
“衰えゆく半年の王の死 〜 ケルトの木の暦(参照)、始まりの終わり、終わりの始まり…”
色: 深緑; 星: 土星; 宝石: オリビン; 性: 女性; 金属: 鉛; 要素: 土; 守護神: バンバ、ヘカテ; シンボル: 復活; 死+再生、永遠、先祖に出会える道+魂の国
今日は冬至、北半球では太陽の南中高度が最も低く、一年の間で昼が最も短く夜が最も長くなる日(南半球では逆転する)。
イチイは濃い緑色の葉を持ち、赤い果実を実らせる常緑樹。イチイはたくましい樹木で胴回りが太くなり、ものすごく長生きをする。おそらくすべての木の中で最も長生きする木といえるだろう。下方に伸びた枝が地面に着くと、新しい木に生まれ変わったかのように、力強く生育を始める。ヨーロッパで最も古いイチイの木は、スコットランドのパースシャーにある『フォーティンゴールのイチイ』と言われており、樹齢は3000年から9000年と推定されている。
また、幹の中が空洞になったイチイの心材は、とくに湿っていると、一見皮を剥がれた動物のようで、切れば血を流すようにも見えるため、ますますイチイは聖なる木だといわれるようになった。
イチイの杖は未来を占うことができるとされ、またイチイの棒はほぼ永遠に保存できるため、オガム文字を刻印する「文字棒」として使用された。ドルイドは、魂が別の人間に生まれ変わるという輪廻転生の自然法則を信じていたので、イチイはあの世への旅の間、魂を守ってくれるものと考えられていた。冥界に至る道はイチイ並木の木陰になっているという説もある。さらに、イチイは異界の悪霊が起こすいかなる障害をも食い止めるという。
神聖なる「不死の木」として、死者を守り浄化すると信じられたイチイは墓地によく植えられ、その多くは樹齢が教会と同じか、またはそれよりずっと古い。
