Wisdom of the Trees
The importance of trees in this time.
Many prophecies from the past and ancient cultures are saying that we live in a very special time on this planet. A time of big changes.
According to the true Mayan Calendar new powerful light energies will come to the planet at the end of May 2006. The Breakthrough Celebration which will be a process and not a single event. With this cosmic light many “growing” problem may occur for the many humans on this planet.
Many of us do feel that time is speeding up, which actually does not mean that the time is speeding up, but the events which are happening in a certain period of time are.
This can cause confusion, and a feeling of being ungrounded.
Many old cultures do believe that tree are teachers and special being on this planet. The Native American are calling the trees “Standing people”. I love this name for them as this gives them the respect we should give to them.
Many books are written and articles about trees about the beneficial side of trees in all their aspects.
I just would like to give a suggestion how we can ask our old teachers in this time for help in order for an easy growth into the human race we are supposed to be.
But at first let us have a look at a tree. A tree is deeply rooted in mother earth with its roots. His branches and crown are reaching high into the sky. With other words, a tree is connected with the energies of the universe and with mother earth. Both energies are always flowing up and down merging with each other and radiating around the tree.
As a human we do not have material roots or branches, but yet we can become aware of the energies of the universe and mother earth.
This simple breathing meditation will help us to be a “human tree”
Find a tree in your imagination or on a beautiful place. Ask the tree if he is willing to “work” with you. You can do this in your mind and just simply feel if the tree is welcoming you or not.
Stand with your back against the tree and feel that your teacher is behind you. You are protected and safe and well.
Breath in and feel the energies of the universe flowing through your crown chakra into your heart chakra, and as you breath out, how the energy goes deep down into mother earth.
Do this 3 times.
Breath in and feel how the energy from mother earth is flowing in you through the sole of your feet into your heart chakra, and as you breath out feel how this energy goes high into the universe
Repeat this 3 times
Breathe in the energy from the universe and the energy from mother earth into heart chakra, and as you breathe out radiate this energy around you. Radiate peace and love to all that is while doing so.
Repeat this 3 times.
Open your eyes and say thank you to your tree.
If you do this regularly you will certainly feel the difference between the earth and cosmic energies and how they are merging in your body. A sense of calmness and peace and love will be the benefit of it.
You may also do this with your tree charm, as this is the connection for you to a special tree. Every tree specie has different divine blessings for you, which may affect this meditation too. Please have a look at the Ogham page for further information. Copyright way of joy 2006
