Wise Friend - Nature's Wisdom
Ancient trees are wisdom keepers. They hold within their bark and branch vast libraries of knowledge, history, and earth mysteries. They are fully willing to make these accesible to anyone who makes an effort totune in to their language.
When you approach a master teacher or revered elder it is customary to offer prayers or pay tribute. The old ones love such acknowledgment, and they respond to your recognition of their wisdom by expanding their energy fields and offering shelter. As you sit in this presence, open your inner knowing to a place of receptivity. Relax.... Breath in a slow rhythmic manner, and listen. Messages may come in a whisper or an exclamation. You may receive words, or likely some simple knowing will occur. Trees are renowned poets and givers of riddles, so don't expect exact answers.
Cultivate a relationship with a tree near your home, one you can visit often. Let your experience with this wise friend guide you in learning the language of trees. Once you learn this connection, you may find trees talking to you everywhere you go.
Trees set an amazing example for us to follow - they are firmly rooted deep into Mother Earth while they stretch their branches high up to the heavens and sing praises to the Father as their leaves dance in the wind. Follow their example - stay grounded & reach high!
Blessings be many,
Leisl
