I’m planning on getting a tattoo of the Celtic Tree of Life and would like to add a word or two that are related to my Celtic sign, which is The Reed. I’d appreciate if anyone could help me translating the words ’strength’ and ‘wisdom’ into old Celtic. Thx in advance! Jen
You (I take) are female – the strength (fem) deity in Celtic tradition is Mabh (pronounced Mavb (very soft ‘b’) ) – try "ach n Mabh " For Mabh – please check this my Gaelic is ver rusty!!
addition – I bow to the above- but still check the poetry of my source

I take it that by "old Celtic" you are haphazardly referring to Gaelic. If that is the case then:
Strength = Neart
Wisdom = Crionnacht
