This Great tree lives in the centre of Annwn and is the first Tree of Creation. The ancient Bards called it Trefuilngid (Tre ecohair), the tree of the three keys or three saplings. This tree is alive with Song, Dance, and Merry Making. And on its limbs the birds of Rhiannon sing so beautifully that whoever hears them remains in a timeless state. It is realm of Youth and Promise, a land where a fountain flows with sweet wine, where age and sickness are unknown. It is in this place that The innermost circle from which all life springs can be found. Look carefully at our original design to find the wee Folk hiding in the tree, two lovers in an embrace hidden in the leaves. From this first Great Tree, the Mother Goddess, Dana brought to Tara {Ireland} a branch with three fruits: nuts, apples, and acorns. From this branch all trees of the earth took root. As a symbol of this belief the Bards of ancient Ireland wore a musical silver branch as an insignia. Each silver branch was said to be a casting of the original branch of Dana. Even the Kings bowed before the Bards who wore the silver branch of the Great Tree, alive and singing in the centre of Annwn, the Realm of the Fairies.
