FRED HAGENEDER’S GATEWAY TO THE MEANING OF TREES IN CULTURE AND CONSCIOUSNESS
The cultural history of the yew tree reveals surprising insights into the origins of the Nordic World Tree, Yggdrasil, usually hidden by orthodox doctrine.
Deadly longbow vs Christian symbol of Resurrection – the yew tree played a big part in defending Wales – it’s about time it got some protection back.
A major genetic study of the European yew reveals the origins and migration pattern of this unique tree, and its evolutionary response to regional climate.
Gaia is the entirety of the material Earth and all living organisms on it = the ecosphere. A self-regulating system that has evolved over 3.8 billion years.
Trees play a huge role in the personal and collective psyche of all humans, not just for obvious practical reasons (food, shelter, air quality) but also for being sacred gates to other realms of consciousness and experience.
Forests are essential organs in the metabolism of planet Earth, maintaining the balance of the ecosphere, global climate, and regional weather patterns.
The world’s forests are active players in maintaining the equilibrium of world climate, not just passive victims succumbing to global heating.
Climate disruption is not the only reason for mass tree dying caused by ever new bugs and diseases. Landgrabbing and pollution have much to answer for.
The origins of the Yew tree reach back to the Upper Jurassic, the age of dinosaurs. Today the oldest trees of Europe need a better conservation status.
The Yew tree (Taxus baccata L.), the oldest native tree species of Europe, is full of surprises and enigmas, both in botany and in natural history as well as cultural history. Here’s a concise introduction.
