FRED HAGENEDER’S GATEWAY TO THE MEANING OF TREES IN CULTURE AND CONSCIOUSNESS
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.
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.
Trees are guardians protecting all life on Earth, just as a single tree gives refreshing shadow under the summer sun. That’s why everywhere in the world humans have respected, loved and revered trees. Evidence for this goes way back into the Stone Age. The wisdom of trees is as old as the dawn of human consciousness.
The Tree of Life aka the World Tree is an ancient and global symbol of the totality of a universe in which everything is imbued with spirit.
