Prayer Tree?

I don't think this will get far but, I would greatly appreciate some prayers, I'm going through a tough time.

I had a bad argument with my mom, a lot of it my fault so it is understandable she wants me to move out, because she also wants to retire and be an empty nester, I'm just applying to a lot of jobs while going to school.

My dog also passed a day ago, so...It's been rough.

Just looking for some prayers.

Wishing Trees

luna-tormenta: Oooo! The ribbon wishing on trees is such a good idea! Could you explain more on that?

From Secular Celebrations - Lughnasadh

Sure thing! There are many cultures and traditions that do something like a wish tree or a prayer tree. The basic idea is that there is a designated tree where prayers and wishes are hung with streamers, ribbons, or paper strips, often as part of seasonal festivals like May Day.

There are a number of variations on the idea that include offerings to local saints, deities, or land spirits and different objects that people leave at the tree, such as shoes, coins, or alcohol.

If you decide to make a wish tree, try to make sure that anything you hang on the branches is biodegradable!

(Photo I took of the prayer tree in the garden of St. Brighid's Well, Kildare, Ireland, April 2016.)

This is one of my keepers. I thought it only fitting to use a Bowie blade on this beautiful set of scales with wood from the prayer tree, dating back to the Civil War.
