Celtic Origin

Work was work, life’s great, yadda yadda; now!..I gotta talk about something...
As most of you know, my religion is firmly grounded in Christianity, though I hesitate to call my relationship with my creator ‘religion’. I’m no afraid to search into the roots of other religions and listen to people whose perspective on life and everything else open-mindedly (s’that a word?). So today, I was shopping over on Amazon to get ideas for the ‘Mouto-chan’s birthdays and Christmas presents (even though I already have them in part -.-). Now, there’s nothing I like more...than good, well-made, cheap, Celtic-style jewelry. And any time I look at jewelry (or anything) for anyone else I end up looking at stuff for myself. So I went browsing, and I came across this little place called Silver Insanity. They have some nice stuff. But anyway, I saw these ‘Celtic Birth Charm’ necklaces. And I was like...huh. And they were very pretty and I realized that there were 12 of ‘em. There’s one for January 1 - 22, January 23 - February 13, February 14 – March 8, March 9 – 31, April 1 – 23 , April 24 – May 16, May 17 – June 8, June 9 – July 1, July 2 – July 24, August 17 – September 8 , October 2 – 24, and Dec 10 – 31. There are some gaps, but that’s not really the issue that bugging me. What bugs me is that I had no idea there were ‘Celtic’ birth charms...( this one’s mine btw!) So, like anyone I put ‘Celtic Zodiac’ in the Google search engine and got this page back. From what I gather (and I knew this), the Celtic Zodiac is based mostly on plant life; more specifically on trees. But I can’t find anything about birth ‘charms’.
Does anyone know anything about this? I’d love to find a site that explains which charm is for what month, why and what it represents. I’d continue searching, but my pills are kicking in. I wish I could give it a bit more effort though. I’ve been packing today and making sure I’ve gotten everything for Mecha Con. You’d be surprised how many things you remember you might need when you get right down to packing (like ice chests with tons of drinks and sandwich meat and so on). I’m really beginning to fade here...I just realized that a show I said I didn’t get and thought was silly just went off. So..=_=’ g’night.

Take this quiz!

Didn’t quite agree with this result, so I retook the quiz and gave the questions a bit more thought. I got this:

I’m more inclined to agree with that result.
