Yew Tree medallion

Yew Tree

The yew, long planted among graves, foretold illness and disappointment to come. For a young woman to sit beneath one was to be filled with fears over her fortune and her lover's faithfulness; to see him standing by it, to hear of his misfortune. Sometimes the dream asks what loss you feel gathering in the shadows ahead.
