The Rowan Tree and Protection

February’s Full Moon falls during the time of the Rowan Tree. Rowan is a symbol of protection. Interestingly enough, Rowan can also symbolize intelligence. Usually, when a tree has more than one meaning, the meanings are very similar or very compatible. I think it’s nice that protection is linked with intelligence, rather than strength or combat. It can be a reminder that there are many ways to protect yourselves and each other.
