Hi ive always beleived that trees have spirits. I think they are one of Gods most beautiful creations. Our world would not exist without them.
I hate to see them cut down.Ive always felt that they have feelings.I mean when they are cut,they bleed, not the same colour as our blood, but they lose sap and thats like us shedding blood.

I knowyou probably think i am mad thinking this way about trees but ive felt like this about them since ive been a little girl.
Trees stand tall and majestic and are full of mystery.They stand there for hundreds of yearsand if they could talk i would be one of the first to listen. Because im sure if they could talk we would learn so much more about the world and its mysteries.

They were here long before we was and they are the life line of this planet just as the rain is the life blood of this planet.God bless juditha

C-Mon, I burn fire wood and write on paper dont you?? LoL. I see a lot of stuff on here as boarderline but this is way out there!

Every single being has it’s spiritual spark the main difference between de human spark and a tree spark is the conscious of  the self. Each one as role in the creation and as humans they are eternal.

Did you ever get close to a huge old tree that is like a meter through the trunk?  They seem to have a gravity well all their own.  Kinda cool they suck you in closer when you get next to them.  

Nothing wrong with loving trees.  I admit to cutting them down all the time for lumber and to heat our house,  but I've planted hundreds and hundreds over the years and it's great to watch them grow up too.  Trees are cool.  We have an oak tree on our place that we think is over 300 years old.  We call it the grandfather oak.  (Don't worry, not going to cut him down :))  If you love trees, you'd love Oregon, we got lots of em.

As for tree spirits.  My beliefs certainly allow them a spiritual element.  It's not quite like ours, but they have a birth, life, and a death, so they must leave a ripple in their own spiritual way in their own fabric of existance.  Now I know we have different beliefs in some ways, but what you say about them being here long before us is very telling.  The way people talk you'd think we've been running this show forever.  In fact, we're made of the same stuff as trees, and we wouldn't exist without trees and other plant life.  They were crucial to our origination and remain crucial to our existance.  They are a prime primitive example of life existing because it can.

One last note on trees.  Please try to take it in the light hearted way I mean it.  We have a landslide on our property.  There are about 40 trees on it that have travelled 25 feet with the earth involveded in the slide.  How exciting for a tree to travel 25 feet in a month!  I'm still waiting for some to notice they're headed for certain death and move off the landslide, but none have figured it out yet.

Hi Bud S I went to a place in england where i live called the Water Gardens and there was a tree there 500 yrs old . I remember thinking about all those years this tree had stood and how many people had stood next to it.Theyare beautiful to look at and theyt will always hold a certain mystery about them. Oregon sounds lovely i will have to go there one day .  God bless juditha.

Interesting to see this posted here now; I have tree issues in my life right now.

another level of interaction:

climate

or something like that.

Is there a relationship between loss of trees everywhere and the bleaching of some coral reefs and the decrease in allowable fishing levels (New England fishermen are in trouble because their limit keeps getting lowered, but the fishing stocks are being depleted) and what else?

This is a little off topic unless maybe someone has some info to relate on trees in the afterlife. Where do the tree spirits go?

Trees are beautiful ,they are truly spiritual ,they have been around since time began ,they give the planet oxygen ,their is something about trees that make them really special ,i bet many of the really old trees could tell a tale or too if only they could talk we would learn so much about this planet . deanna

Hi  Lucy There are trees in the afterlife not the same as earth trees but  spirit trees . I have seen pictures of this which a girl of forteen painted from having an NDE EXPERIENCE. She painted this from her memory of seeing the afterlife . She painted rivers ,flowers, animals , birds. So its a bit off topic but not to much . God bless juditha

Hi, I too love trees. I once saw a cut trunk lieing aside a street, and there were still growing leafs out of it. I was curious what would happen when I tried a retrieval of that treetrunk? So I sat down on it, closed my eyes and made an attempt. There was a field (in the meaning of "magnetic/electric etc. field") connected to the trunk, it was resonating with it, and when I tried to communicate with the field and the trunk I got the impression that the dieing process is like the weakening of the resonance that field has with the treetrunk, and the field and the trunk will separate finally, but something from that trunk, don't know how to call it, was flowing into the field, going back, this was the death process. It's was not that individualistic like with humans, but there was still a kind of information from this specific treetrunk what was added to the field.

Shiver me timbers!  No, seriously, I got shivers reading your post Spooky.  I totally relate to what you're saying about tree spirit.  I've not experienced  it like that or could have phrased it that way, but I think you've summed it up quite succinctly.  I'm starting to think there is much to be learned from this in the bigger picture.  Just like we started learning in grade school by looking at an onion cell under a microscope, perhaps other spiritual realms hold some education for us as to the way things work on the basic level.  As was mentioned above, trees have been here a long time, and probably preceeded us in "spiritual" frontiers if that's possible, as well as physical.  This is so interesting.  I'm going to have to tune into trees more carefully with this in mind.

Could the resonant field you sensed be the same as our field and we have just adapted it to individual awareness over the millenia?  Like the onion cell has a cell wall and we have one without adapted for animals.  A sort of evolution of the spiritual dimension.  Now my mind is spinning.  Thanks for your post!

Hi Bud_S,

This field re-absorbing the tree's essence felt to me connected to what is best termed as "landscape". Not in the sense of geological or biological facts, but as the impression a landscape gives to us. It's the plants mostly, but also little animals have to do with it, and whether it's hilly or flat etc, it's the ensemble's direct effect to us before we consider the details. And yes, imagine over the landscape is floating fog, then you may have a picture of what I got.
Similarly, I had an impression of a field or realm when I once cared about a dying mouse in the woods. Similar, but different. It's another realm where the mouse had gone to, at least that's what I felt. The tree's field was more connected to the earth than the mouse's field.
And, with humans it's special again, they are much more drawn away from the earth's life sphere than plants or animals. BUT- I once stood on a meadow and started a little meditation in which I imagined to have a look from a viewpoint out of my body. So, I "saw" my body from above, and it was odd, to see your body truely only as a body, ok, you have control about it, but in that moment the priority was that my body belonged to the earth's life system. You know, we all know that in theory, but to actually get it somehow visually/perceptual is different. The shape of my body was blurred and it was a swirl, I think it was turning counter-clockwise seen from above. So, we belong to various levels, our physical bodies and the rest of us from which I can't say in how many aspects it could fall apart.

On the other hand, I had journeys to an all encompassing field. This is like the idea of Chi or Prana or ether. All things exists through it's foldings and swirls in a more than 3D space, and that way all is connected. This is when I meditate about the Buddha state and Nirvana (well, no surprise).

I think the understanding of these different fields and how they work together is the (or one) key of true magic.

The Devas are a little known (to humanity) group of beings, whose little understood role, is that of working extensively and supportively with the energies of nature, including with plants, and in a different way, with humanity. If only people understood of their existence and role, the Devas would be appreciated and thanked a lot more...

These posts are quite meaningful to me. Thank you.

Spooky that is quite an image! So I see a picture where even as it takes a long time for a fallen tree in the forest to decompose, the process reflects something spiritual gradually seeping back into the tree spiritual world.
