It has long been considered unlucky to fell an oak. Burn oak leaves as purification. The wood is used for all-purpose wands. Acorns are carried as fertility charms, to preserve youthfulness, and to ward off illness. Hang in windows to protect the house.
Men can carry acorns to increase their sexual attractiveness and prowess.
Sacred to Athena. Regarded as a symbol of peace and wealth, and a sign of safe travel. Elements of Mars and Fire. Used in protection and healing. Place cut onions in a room to absorb illness, leave overnight and throw away in the morning.
