Understand the Secret Language of Trees....

Capture energy, align your intent, and deliver a transformation through the wisdom inherent in wood.
Sounds fantastic, but primal people the world over venerate trees as a living symbol of their dreams and aspirations and, of Life itself. For not only in its abundant generosity towards humanity, but also in its universal symbolism of metaphysical principles, every tree is an offshoot of the World Tree, (the Ygdrasill in Norse mythology) that grows the world over, in every climate under the all seeing Sun. Modern society values the tree for little more than its market value, but our primal ancestors also knew a great deal about the world they lived in, and applied that knowledge accordingly. If some of those ancient applications should again come to light, would it not be of value? If you could capture a piece of your primal past, focus the secret wisdom, knowledge, and power inherent in a simple piece of wood, would you? Apple is the symbol of beauty, innocence and youth.
