The cedar, an evergreen, is said to “never die”. Therefore, it keeps the same “mood” all the time - through drought and flood, heat and cold - it remains the same. It is believed to be a very powerful tree, so much so that if someone tries to transplant a young cedar, they will die before that cedar reaches the height of that individual. The Cedar tree is used in medicine to cure ailments such as colds, female obstructions, measles, worms, itch, white swelling, and rheumatism.It has also been used for carving, in furniture, for fence posts, moth proofing, and to keep bees and wasps away.Sometimes deer hunters will use Cedar as a cover scent to mask their own scent.
“The cedar tree was held sacred above all other trees. The reasons for this reverence are easily found in the cedars ever living green, in its balsamic fragrance, and in the beautiful color of its fine grained wood that will not warp or decay. In the old rituals, the medicine men threw the small green twigs of the cedar on the fire as incense in certain ceremonies, particularly to counteract dreams in which ghosts appeared. The Cherokee believed malevolent ghosts could not endure the smell. Environmental sound, the Cherokee believed the wood itself was too sacred to burn as fuel. According to the myth, the red color of cedar came originally from the blood of a wicked magician whose severed head was hung at the top of a tall cedar.” -bluewaters
