Tree Spirits

What are Tree Spirits: Tree spirits are ancient and wise, offering healing magic, wisdom and insight.

A Tree Spirit is a type of nature spirit, and effectively the “living soul” of a tree. It has much in the way of wisdom and healing to offer those who are willing to listen and absorb. Tree spirits are ghostly and otherworldly, often glimpsed out of the corner of the eye in a darkened wood or a flash of sunlight through the forest canopy. Primarily, tree spirits act as the guardians and life force of the trees. Responsible for nurturing and growing them, the tree spirits are keen to share their wisdom regarding the care of the planet, particularly that of forests, woods and the wildlife that dwells within. They are also excellent healers, and leaning against the trunk of a tree can bring about great restorative powers. Tree spirits are not entirely bound to their tree; they can venture a short distance away. Legends tell of folk becoming unsettled in forests at night, because of the tree spirits stirring and walking about the woods. Tree Mothers The “Tree Mothers” or “Mother Trees” are female tree spirits much older and wiser than their younger counterparts, and have become known as matriarchal trees with a plethora of important spiritual wisdom to offer those eager to learn. Tree mothers tend to be found in very old or mature trees, often in an ancient wood, and sometimes even in groups.

Approaching a Tree When you have found a suitable tree slowly approach it from a distance of about eight meters. Do this with an attitude or respect, after all the tree can't move away from you and you are coming in its space. With hands stretched out in front of you, palms facing towards the tree walk very slowly until you feel the first layer of the tree's aura. Stop at this point and introduce yourself to the tree. The aura of a tree has seven layers. Four of those are outside the tree, the fifth is in the bark and the last two within the tree. Slowly approach until you have felt four of the seven layers of the tree's aura.
