I am sure you have noticed that the main theme of my site is that of the Green Man. He is a symbol of nature, the god of vegitation. He can be found in many places including your local garden center as various garden statues. In Europe he can be found in many churches, shrines, alcoves and gardens. He is present in many different cultures. He is a symbol of life, death and rebirth. 

I am personally rather found of all the different incarnations of the Green Man. What are your thoughts on this? Please share you thoughs with us.
