Oak

The oak is endurance rooted. Druidic tradition revered the oak above all trees; Zeus’s sacred tree at Dodona was an oak whose rustling leaves were read as oracles. Jungian analysis reads oak-dreams as the arrival of a long-standing strength — a capacity the dreamer has grown slowly over many seasons. An oak struck by lightning is classically a symbol of sudden revelation changing a settled life. Notice whether you stand under, climb, or are sheltered by the oak.
