The green man, the Oak King, is depicted in the Celtic Tree Calendar. Oak, ‘Darach’ in Gaelic or ‘Duir’ in the ancient Ogham calendar, runs from June 10th to July 7th, being the 7th lunar cycle of the Year. The Oak King also reflects the warmer half of the year, after the summer solstice.
A perfect gift for anyone born between the 10th of June and the 7th of July or celebrating Midsummer, which takes place over the lunar cycle.

Sueno’s Stone near Forres is the tallest remaining Pictish standing stone in Scotland.
The Stone is tied to legends of three witches who lured warriors to their deaths, each victim's fate carved onto the stone. Lore tells of witches crafting wax effigies to curse victims. In the legend, they were eventually imprisoned inside the stone, but if the stone were broken, they would be released.
Other grisly local reports tell of those accused of being witches, sealed inside nail-studded barrels, rolled off cliffsides, into the sea, or burning heather.
