Living inside the ancient ash… and returning to it… but a dream. I love how you describe it. Thank you sir!

May I ask the meaning of the “symbol” line?

  Thank you! I’m playing around using ogham and, while it it probably more appropriate to use Old Irish for ogham, I decided to transliterate English instead.
  
  English in ogham letters: “Can [y]ou see me in the dream?”

    Now I will sleep less ignorant tonight, 😅😅 thank you! Quite interesting in fact, I checked up “sa grande googlerie” for more information, and came up with chart for Ogham Alphabet. Nice!

      You’re welcome. It’s really too bad there’s not more reliable information out there (and yet, plenty of people claiming to be authorities on ogham). So much interesting information lost from that time period…
