Annym Billagh is an ancient system of healing, originating from my ancestral path with roots in the British Isles, specifically, the Isle of Man. It is possible that the Druids, in particular, the Bandrui, the women who served the people as seers, healers, and wise women, used something similar. Certainly whether Druid or not, the techniques of drawing on the energy of the Earth, Sky and Sea is as ancient as we are as a people. It is based on the knowledge that we are all One, living in a world supported by the Earth at our feet, the Sea from which all life comes, and the Sky, source of our breath, inspired by the Fire of Inspiration, blessed by all that is Divine.

It is my hope in this book that I can give you a few ideas of what the ogham is, where it might have come from, and how I (and others) use it as a spiritual tool. There is much we do not know about the Ogham. It is not known for sure if the ogham was ever used for divination. And finally, it is not known if the letters were ever used to designate lunar cycles. What is known is that there were many oghams – the letters themselves, bird oghams, tree oghams, etc. The letters being symbols for certain words, not all trees as it thought by most today. What we have is a system that uses several oghams in combination that is not necessarily historically correct but that which works for us as a tool for learning. This book deals with those teachings set in a framework of the lunar year.

We invite you to dare to be different in order to discover your own truth. The apple offers protection, strength, comfort, and respite for your journey. ~ Bendis ~	Within the Apple Branch we invite you to work with "the divine madness of the shaman." We call you to journey to the Otherworld to bring back wisdom for application in your life and in the lives of others. Apple represents the spiritual warrior who fears not to travel beyond the mortal realm to face death, sacrifice, and hardship, in order to benefit his or her tribe. The apple branch represents shelter and protection on these intense shamanic journeys. Apple invites you to dare to be different in order to discover your own truth. The apple offers protection, strength, comfort, and respite for your ordeal. As a Dianic High Priestess, ordained by Z Budapest, I created From the Branch Priestess Mentoring as an outreach program for those who wish to study Dianic Witchcraft within the teachings of the Apple Branch Tradition. We use the Sacred Tree Alphabet as a model of continuity of the energies of both the lunar and solar year combined with a great deal of practical experience in all areas of service to The Goddess. Our approach to our magic is to remove the focus from the cerebral ~ to bring the energy down into the body ~ thereby removing barriers and limits to personal ecstasy and fulfillment. This is not always an easy approach, but in the long run becomes a full experience of the whole self, embodying all of our personal magic into an ecstatic experience.
