| Judith Shaw - Solstice Tree of Life |
Trees play an important part in celebrations of this season of darkness. Just as the Winter Solstice reminds us of the cyclical nature of the seasons, so too does the Tree of Life. Long-lived trees serve as a tangible representation of the ever-changing rhythms of the year: leaves fall in autumn, branches stand bare in winter, tender greenery emerges in spring, and summer brings the full splendor of leaves, nuts, and fruits. When the night is longest and the dark is deepest, the stars and moon shine even more brightly through the branches of the Tree of Life. Both the Winter Solstice and the Tree of Life symbolize our soul’s journey of self-discovery and our quest for a deeper understanding of ourselves and the world around us. At this time, our hearts are open to the dark mystery of the cosmos, the interconnectedness of all beings, and the unity from which we all arise. - Judith Shaw, The Solstice Tree of Life, Feminism & Religion, 12/25/24
