They are known to also have a great deal of compassion for animals, as well," she said. "Through nursing and the power of prayer, they have a unique ability to relieve the suffering of others. As far as religion goes, their faith is rarely orthodox, however, they have a strong, deep sense of spiritual matters. They tend to be able to adapt to most situations and can recover from a variety of emotional blows."
Anna thought some more and then continued. "Ash people can also frequently have trouble when dealing with the practicalities of everyday life. They tend to be easily influenced by others and can let this effect their life by lacking self-confidence and being isolated," she finished. " Very nice. Five points to you." Quote:

They may look like they are frail but emotionally have the ability to recover from almost anything. They are easily influenced by others and despite their intutive and compassionate nature; can be low on self-confidence and risk becoming isolated. Their hypersensitive nature can undermine their self-confidence and ambitions. They aren't the best equipped type to deal with the practical nature of every day life; and are often half in a fantasy world." " Or 'The Land of the Sidhe' as the Celts like to refer to it. Five points." Quote:

They have a creative genius for making money but often fail to carry things to completion. They require careful direction as children in order to learn to use these talents to their fullest. Ash people tend to have a rather mystical quality about them and are drawn to fantasy worlds. They love the theater and movies. They are usually attracted to the ocean or any other body of water either with great fascination or great fear. There is no in-between when it comes to their feelings about water. Their career choice should never involve too strict a routine. The arts are a good choice but because of their compassionate nature they are often attracted to the medical field. They are also good at organizing charity functions. They are very gentle people and are easily hurt, yet they are well able to cope with the negative as well as the positive. They are kind and considerate friends although they are sometimes lost in a fog. Ash people are great lovers and caring parents. They are romantics and dreamers." " Excellent! And, thank you for pointing out their relationships with water. 5 points." Quote:

"The weakness of the ash tree shows openly, once you try to suppress their will for liberty." He quoted unsurely, wondering what on Earth that meant.
Professor Kapoor listened as Clifford explained about the Ashes in his own words. " Through their minds, yes, but not quite through their intellect, as they are more 'dreamer' types. Four points."
" Many times, the Celtic Zodiac's symbolic trees will have certain attritbutes which are echoed in nature. Ivy, for example is said to be a very co-dependent personality, with a strong need to be surrounded by friends and people, much the way natural Ivy requires a trellis of some kind in order to grow upwards...to ascend! This sort of similar relationship occurs in another Zodiac tree, which sprouts catkins in order to attract bees and start their pollination as it is symbolic of 'the cycle'?"
