TREE OF LIFE SYMBOLISM:

The Tree of Life symbol has a long history, crossing many cultures. While it would be overwhelming to explain its significance to each culture, the Tree of Life has overarching themes and meanings that span across many peoples.

* A symbol of connection to all things: The tree has roots that reach deeply into the soil, acknowledging its connection to, and accepting nourishment from, Mother Earth. Leaves and branches extend into the sky, acknowledging Father Sun and accepting the energy that it transforms into nourishment. The Tree of Life symbolizes that you are not an island, but are deeply connected to the world around you and dependent on it for your ability to grow and thrive.

* A symbol of family and connection to your ancestors: A tree symbolizes the generations of your family; a tree sprouts from a seed, grows and branches out, sees how far it can go, and then creates a new fruit that gives life to the next generation, to begin anew. The Tree of Life also symbolizes family through its intricate network of branches, showing us the continuity through all generations. We are connected through ever-expanding branches to our parents and grandparents and to our children and our children’s children.

* A symbol of your growth into a beautiful and unique person: When trees are young, they pretty much all look the same. But, as they grow older, they weather storms and are battered by the forces of wind and water. Their branches may break and grow back in a different direction, or the very soil beneath them will erode away, causing them to grow even stronger roots to hold on. Over time, they become very unique and beautiful in their eccentricity and idiosyncrasies. They are just as we all wish to become – shaped into fascinating, intriguing individuals who have weathered hardships and broad experiences in life that have made us into who we are.

* A symbol of rebirth: In the fall, trees lose their leaves and enter a death-like hibernation for a few months. But come spring, the tree sprouts tiny buds, bursts forth with dramatic blooms and leaves and is born again. In this way, the Tree of Life is a symbol of a fresh start on life, positive energy, good health and a bright future.

* A symbol of immortality: A tree grows old, yet it bears seeds that contain its very essence and in this way, the tree becomes immortal.

* A symbol of growth and strength: A young tree starts out with shallow roots that strengthen and grow deeper over time. Branches start as small buds and stretch upwards, reaching for the sun and sky. Just like this tree, a person grows stronger over time and strives for greater knowledge and new experiences.
