Character Reference Of The Hawthorn Tree Sign

Hawthorn tree people are full of innovations and new ideas. People born under this sign are multi - talented and adapt easily to any changes in their lives. They have personal qualities akin to the celtic bards and druids of old, often excelling in the performing arts and naturally drawn to spheres of influence. Generally, their great strength is knowing the weaknesses of their adversaries or any opposing forces, but they are not ruthless people, merely clever strategists. People born during the first two weeks of the lunar month are more impulsive and have a more sensual nature. Their positive traits are, however, extremely consolidating once they have decided upon their course of action. People born in the last two weeks have a distinctly different approach to all things, and are much more difficult to pin down regarding personal relationships or commitments of any kind. Their positive traits are linked to a wider vision that opens the locked doors of the mind.
The hawthorn is a small tree that was often used for hedging, and it has a mixed reputation.  Known to be both a sign of fertility and death, it was said to contain the knowledge of both reproduction and transformation.  Both of these processes take time - and if you were born under the sign of hawthorn, you have an innate understanding of both the importance of process and the necessity for change.  Your challenge is to use that understanding to guide you when undertaking new starts - don't rush.  Wait, and prepare carefully
