”Suomalaisessa kansanperinteessä jokaisella puulajilla oli oma haltija. Katajien haltija oli Katajatar. Katajien henkien kerrottiin olevan kaikista kauneimpia ja ystävällisimpiä.
Pihlajien Pihlajatar. Tuomien Tuometar. Havutar oli havupuiden jumalatar. Honka oli mäntyjen haltija, sekä karhujen emuu. Puiden henkiä pidettiin metsänjumala Tapion ja jumalatar Mielikin tyttärinä.
Puiden palvonta oli hyvin yleistä kaikille suomensukuisille, itämeren suomalaisille ja saamelaisille heimoilla. Suomessa perheillä oli pihalla erityinen haltijapuu. Uskottiin, että puun sisällä asuva haltija suojeli perhettä ja perheenjäseniä.
Haltijapuulle uhrattiin aina suurina juhlapyhinä ja elämän merkkipäivinä. Haltijapuu istutettiin, kun perhe muutti taloon tai lapsen syntyessä.”
