The tree is perhaps our mightiest ancestor, a supreme role model of wisdom, compassion and patience. They are cornerstones to the ecosystem, tending to the soil, climate, oxygen and waters. They host and support a vast pageantry of organisms, and eventually give themselves back to the soil. Even as decaying logs, they are one of the richest ecosystems. Through their seasonal transformations, they teach the dance of the elements and laws of nature. But we need to be quiet enough to appreciate this.

In this depiction, the Tree of Life carries the chakras or 7 major energy centres. Each one contains a portal to elements of the soul’s journey. Throughout the image are depictions of the cycles of life, birth, death, evolution and transcendence.
