Daily Card (Celtic Tree Oracle): NgEtal - Reed (12 month: October)
The Ivy grows, spreads and flourished in many conditions - cultivated land or wasteland, in light or in near darkness, in fertile soil or on rubble and stones. It will push it's way through tiny cracks and crevices to reach the light and it is strong and difficult to destroy. Since ancient times, the Vine and the Ivy hav been regarded as enemies. If the Vine, through intoxication, releases prophetic powers, the Ivy, in contrast, puts you in touch with your own inner resources, giving you the ability to see through the eyes of th esoul beyond the everyday world.
Holly is known as the plant that is best in the fight... While during the summer when all is green and alive, it's leaves are soft and pliable, in the winter when it's the only thing left green, it's leave become hard and sharp to protect itself from browsing animals. A male plant symbolizing fatherhood and paternity, this plant has always been considered a potent life symbol ~ both for its long year foliage and it's winter fruits. This would was a popular for the making of spear shafts.
This card actually weals a dual meaning linking to both the Heather and the Mistletoe. Heather shows us the link from the spirit world to the fertile earth, linking us to the spirit world and mistletoe adds in an all healing component. 
Today there is a heightened ability in prophetic powers, meditated on the answers you seek, ask the spirits or other powers how to accomplish the things you need accomplished, use your own "seeing" eyes to find what you need. Today the powers are in you. 
As today's card,, we are protected from enchantment. If you turn a Rowan Berry to see the bottom, you will find the five pointed star, the universal symbol for protection. This card will help you to retain your senses so that you can distinguish good from bad, harm from help, and will help you to use your spiritual path to turn away anything that threatens your serenity and peace.
Honeysuckle hides the truth that is within. As you look deeper into where honeysuckle grows, you find where it truly comes from, the base of the winding crawly vine that can take over and entire area or structure. Drawing this card gives you the ability to distinguish what is false from that which is real and worthwhile, allowing you to find your way to the center of the truth. It will help you to tread softly and safely staying true to your belief and to yourself. It will also help you to discover your truth without distractions meant to lead you away. 
Good at collecting, such as the Magpie. This card indicates a gathering together of sweetness and value, or at a skill in collecting. So one of two things could be happening today. The things you need to reach a goal are gathering to you now so that you can achieve this goal or you will be given the ability to gather the things needed to reach a goal.
This card symbolizes, reminds us, to continues our search for self, inner self and outer self. Like the vine that can grow anywhere, it pushes through the stones looking for light as we all need to continue to move forward regardless of what we face looking for peace and enlightenment in our lives. Also, in the spiral of the vine, you have a part to play - to assist in the spiritual journey of others as they also do in yours. 
The first day of the new year will bring much learning to all as things continue to change and shift. This card tells us to look to old knowledge to understand events of today. In the next year, talk to an elder, contact your ancestors, visit an old sacred site to find understanding in the problems and issues of today or to help you make those big decisions concerning your future.
