Endings & Beginnings.. 🍂🌱
I adore this yew tree, over the last 6 years I've watched this branch curve, arch and now anchor into the earth.
Yew trees are often called the tree that 'walks', and this one is the perfect example.
The main trunk of this yew will eventually wither, but the tree will live on. Because this branch has started 'stepping' to support the next phase of its life. The roots are now spreading, and the branch is transmitting new nourishment from the old trunk to the earth and back again.
Like a river.
This is one of many reasons that yews are linked with transformation, death and rebirth.
Reminding us that an ending isn't the end,
Something that's been one way for a long time can still change,
And the essence can be carried forwards into new life.
If you're facing a rebirth of sorts, go stand with the yew, let it whisper the secrets of life through challenge.
