History of the Green Man
The Green Man is a figure of mysterious origins with references dating back thousands of years in many different civilizations. It represents life and the cycle of growth, but most importantly it embodies sustainability in the modern world.
Although specifics about its beginnings are not known, the Green Man is most often associated with the Celts. Most frequently depicted as a man’s face, usually ranging from middle aged to elderly, it often appears within leaves, branches, vines, and flowers, as being born from the natural world. Our Green Man is a Eucalyptus Green Man, Eucalyptus being the dominant native tree species in Australia.
The Green Man is seen as a symbol of growth and rebirth, the eternal seasonal cycle. This union with nature and mutual reliance upon one another is a powerful message of the Green Man. Is the Green Man a child of Gaia, the Earth Mother?
