This sturdy tree symbolizes wisdom and strength, both physical and moral.
It is the favorite sacred tree of the gods because, more than others, it attracts Zeus’s lightning. The Celts, who got mistletoe from it, attributed great powers to it. God appeared to Abraham in an holm oak branch, thus symbolizing stability, protection, and strength.
A lush and sturdy holm oak casts longevity, prosperity, and happy old age. Climbing it portends great energy. The branches represent the strength and courage of the dreamer.
If it does not have leaves it predicts loss of property. A downcast holm oak endangers the sleeper’s finances; pruned, portends marital infidelity.
