Trees

lora, including trees, contribute to the environment, absorbing what they need from it, absorbing what we leave as waste in it. Studies revealed that trees communicate, something dowsers and other sensitives always knew. Trees have life systems including what was named a heart.

When my husband and I planted trees on his beachfront property in Josiah's Bay, Tortola, V.I. (UK) he intuited how the trees wanted to be oriented.    
The front door is an aetheric opening two feet up the trunk through which energy enters.

I dowsed to check where their front doors were located. I asked the trees if they were happy where they were. All of the individuals' responses were positive.

Recently, it was revealed that trees have more than one door. And we have recently learned that humans have more than one brain, three at this point.
That is not to say there is a correlation but that somewhat complex organisms have similarities. Scientists revealed that trees talk to each other about survival.

From a National Geographic video called "How trees secretly talk to each other in the forest":

Hub trees are the oldest and tallest that have greater access to sunlight. Their leaves form the canopy. I thought that there was competition, with leaves blocking sunlight to the forest floor below, however, they do provide for the floral beings below.

Photosynthesis produce more sugar that is absorbed by underground fungi
through their mycellium, a mass of threadlike roots that intertwine within the tree's roots. In a beautiful exchange, the mycelium provides the roots with water and nutrients (nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus) from the soil. This fungus and root relationship is called mycorrhiza (mycos=fungus, riza-root).
All of this occurs underground. Exchanging necessary elements and warning trees when a threat is determined.

Studies revealed that a hub tree sets up tens of connections within a stand. Studies also showed how important the older and taller  individuals are in that
almost half of the connections organized among trees would be lost if one was removed." c 

Every individual, in my garden or Mother Nature's, is important.

Merge with Trees by Allison L. Williams Hill

Dr. András Zlinszkyat Aarhus University, Denmark, used a laser scanning technique in order to measure the precise location of branches and leaves of 22 tree and shrub species.

In 2015, he published observations of substantial unexpected movement cycles.

Science has also found that some trees raise and lower their branches several times in the course of one night, indicating a cycle of water and sugar transportation, like their own version of a heartbeat.

In one statement, Zlinszky explained: "During the night period, some trees lower their branches by up to 10 centimeters (4 inches) prior raising them again with the Sun.

This is such a slow and subtle process so that until recently it has been thought that just a few families do it, now it has been learned that it is more widespread. a

A massive web of hair-like mushroom roots transmit secret messages between trees, triggering them to share nutrients and water with those in need."

Like humans, trees are extremely social creatures, utterly dependent on each other for their survival. And, as it is with us, communication is key.

After scientists discovered pine tree roots could transfer carbon to other pine tree roots in a lab, ecology professor Suzanne Simard set out to figure out how they did it.

What she discovered was a vast tangled web of hair-like mushroom roots — an information super highway allowing trees to communicate important messages to other members of their species and related species, such that the forest behaves as “a single organism.”


The idea that trees could share information underground was controversial. Some of Simard’s colleagues thought she was crazy.

Having trouble finding research funding, she eventually set out to conduct the experiments herself, planting 240 birch, fir and cedar trees in a Canadian forest.

She covered the seedlings with plastic bags and filled them with various types of carbon gas.


An hour later she took the bags off, ran her Geiger counter over their leaves and heard “the most beautiful sound,” she says in the Ted Talk below:


“Crrrrr… It was the sound of Birch talking to Fir,” she said.

“Birch was saying, ‘hey, can I help you?'”

“And Fir was saying yeah, can you send me some of your carbon? Somebody threw a shade cloth over me.”

She also scanned the cedar’s leaves, and as she suspected — silence. The cedar was in its own world. It was not connected into the fungal web linking birches and firs.

The birch and fir were in a “lively two-way conversation,” Simard says

When the fir was shaded by the birch in summer, the birch sent more carbon to it. When the birch was leafless in the winter, the fir sent more carbon to it.

The two trees were totally interdependent, Simard discovered, “like yin and yang.”

That’s when Simard knew she was onto something big… In the past, we assumed trees were competing with each other for carbon, sunlight, water and nutrients. But Simard’s work showed us trees were also cooperators.

They communicate by sending mysterious chemical and hormonal signals to each other via the mycelium, to determine which trees need more carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and carbon, and which trees have some to spare, sending the elements back and forth to each other until the entire forest is balanced. b

Trees!
Isn't this wonderful to know?
If flora can do it, we can do it.
We are similar except that we are mobile and they are not. 

“The web is so dense there can be hundreds of kilometers of mycelium under a single foot step,” Simard says.

The mycelium web connects mother trees with baby trees, allowing them to feed their young.

A single mother tree can provide nourishment for hundreds of smaller trees in the under-story of her branches, she says.

Mother trees even recognize their kin, sending them more mycelium and carbon annd reducing their own root size to make room for their babies.

This new understanding of tree communication had Simard worried about the implications of clear-cutting.

When mother trees are injured or dying, they send their wisdom onto the next generation. They can’t do this is if they are all wiped out at once.

“You can take out one or two hub trees, but there comes a tipping point, if you take out one too many, the whole system collapses,” she says.

Often clear-cut forests are replanted with only one or two species. “These simplified forests lack complexity making them vulnerable to infection and bugs.”

To ensure the survival of the planet’s lungs at a time when they are most crucial, Simard suggests four simple solutions to end the damage caused by clear cutting :

1. Get out in the forest more — this in and of itself will remind us how interdependent we are on this ecosystem.

2. Save old growth forests as repositories of genes, mother trees and mycelium networks.

3. Where we do cut, save the “legacy” trees so they can pass on important information to the next generation.

4. Regenerate cut patches with diverse native species.

A meditation:

TREES

I AM out here among you. 

Embrace us.  Our trees to your tree.  Shades of green soothe like a cool salve.  As you watch us on a calm day, you may see or sense an almost imperceptible action.  We live, we grow, some an inch within a year, yet, some even slower.  Look at us and breathe in with our rhythm.  Feel the waves subtle though they may feel, to some of you, but they are present.  

Breathe.  The in breath is the gateway to fully using this or any other energy.

This suspends time.  Breathe in - energy, into and through your body.  We do not just take in sunlight and carbon dioxide.  We transmit and react to energy. 

We have all of this information about trees because instruments are sensitive enough to find it. I used to think that when the day moved into evening, the "silent sound" was nature at night as human activity stilled. Now I think it is the trees doing their thing but their noise is the harmonic streaming violins I always hear.

How to Heal with Trees in Nature

I kept postponing this; I desired to have a workshop with the contents called "Green is the Gift: How to Heal with Trees in Nature." In light of all things happening, I don't know when that will be.

“Green is The Gift”

Description: How to Heal with Trees in Nature

 

Our physics lesson.  Our leaves are green because they are all other colors absorbed from the spectrum, leaving the green wavelength.  You breathe in the green.  Carry it to your heart, the center with green as its color.  Amazing how that works, hmm?     Breathe in the green into your heart.  Breath out the Light as your heart light expands.  Continue doing this.  Breathe in deep, breathe out long and complete.  We absorb your waste and return life. Return Light back to us.  It would be appreciated.

Step outside to step within.  Step outside to step aside.  Your active, working Self is directed by your to-do list and responsibilities, the bedrock of your existence.  Even though “Sit with the trees” is a to-do item,  you relax and allow things to emerge and recede.  We cannot emphasize the need for breath, always.  It supports your existence, and ours, I remind you.  Rock, move, sway.  Reach beyond what you are accustomed to.   

It is a reminder of that which is presented and brought into your heart, the place where all energy of the cosmos resides.

Love is a common feeling

Many texts and messages encourage you not to confuse this with romantic love- the feeling of longing, of losing oneself.  In this, you are never more clearer, more centered, or more powerful.

Decisions are determined based not only on mindful logic but regulated emotions thus balancing the various options and addressing all of which needs to be considered.

Reparations- undoing the affects of negative thoughts that weaken, expose the systems to effects that can further weaken the body.

Open the Mind to ask a tree to provide a service for you.

Chalice Well Fountain, Glastonbury, England by Allison L. Williams Hill

Select one that has its branches at a height that allows you to stand unobstructed with your back at its trunk.

Touch the bark, connect with the tree however you wish.  Perhaps, saying ”Hi” in your mind.  Smiling helps a lot by releasing tension, and self-consciousness of doing something most people in your world may not do at all. 

Stand with your back on the tree. Attempt to have the spine completely against it.  Move your feet a little forward of your torso as if you are preparing to lower yourself into a squat position. Don't bend the knees if you don't need to. You will be holding this position for a while. Inhale deeply, slowly.  Exhale deeply and slowly as well.  Close your eyes if you feel safe. Maintain your awareness. Breathe in as deep into the belly as you can.  Release the breath completely.  Attempt to let it all go out of your body.

Ask your new friend to remove the tension from your body through your back and spine. Visualize and/or feel it, in whatever form or sensation it owns, leave. It will travel through the tree into the roots. It will be deposited into the earth. When you feel that the process is complete, increase your breathing to normal. Open you eyes. Bring your legs back under your torso, stand and move away from the tree. Others might need assistance on either side or both sides of their bodies.

You can maintain the state and sift your body to  sit at the base of the tree.  Sit on its roots.  Continue breathing.  Feel the air leave your lungs, feel sensations change in your body as you continue breathing.  I will not state what it should be, what it should feel like.  It will vary per the individual and how you use your body and mind.  It will vary according to your experience of how you live your life. 

There is a direct relationship between feeling tired after you remove yourself from the tree and how you felt before you connected.  The “fatigue” is really relaxation.   If it is a strong tired feeling, it is due to the extreme tension you held within your body.  If you feel the need to sit, please do. 

Take slow deep breaths through your nose. Exhale slowly and completely through your mouth only a few times.  Breathe deeply again and exhale through the nose.  You may wish to close your eyes.  Remember where you are and keep your wits about you.  An alternative is to blink slowly several times.

Take stock of your body parts from your feet up.  How do your toes feel?  Focus on the parts of your  body where you tend to hold tension.  Some develop scoliosis.  If you have, how does the tense or tight side feel now?  Some hold tension in the neck and/or shoulders.  How does that part of your body feel now?

Relaxation is the natural state.  With increased responsibilities and consistent high performance levels, many of us have forgotten how it feels to be naturally relaxed.

A message from mediation:

Love is the answer

Patience is the way

Time is what you have most of

Each moment to express your findings-

Create from the basics and offer gratitude

That you can do

this miraculous thing known as manifesting.

Study your heart and create it outside in your world.

Love,

GOD
