A quick review of the statistics for The Green Man shows that the two top search strings that have lead to this site this month are "Green Man" and "The Green Man".
It makes a bit of a change from "Spencer Tunick" and "Worlds Tallest Tree" which are the usual two. A bit of an odd combination that, I am sure I can make something bizarre out of it with a small amount of effort. But I digress, Green Man, is top this month and it is hardly surprising. May, afterall, is the month of The Green Man. It is spring time in the Northern Hemisphere and pagan celebrations of renewal and fecundity abound. It is no wonder that people are searching for more information on The Green Man. He symbolises the triumph of spring and summer over autumn and winter and is popping up in celebrations across much of America and western Europe.
In the Southern Hemisphere the days are shortening and the cold, wet weather is setting in. We can only watch in envy as men and women across Europe and America dance joyous and naked around the bonfire. Why no join them? Put that bad news and negativity aside for a moment and release your wildness.
Trust The Green Man, it is very therapeutic and a glass or two of seriously strong scrumpy cider before hand never goes astray either.
There are many jewels hidden amongst the leaves in this forgotten part of the ancient forest. Spend some time browsing and you are sure to find some. Click here or continue your search below

Was there an uptick?
Well probably in March too but it is the May Day festivals that feature the Green Man fairly heavily.
