Making Your Own Tree Magic
When there is a tree you are drawn to, you are already experiencing its magic. You will want to get to know your magical friend, so look at its shape, its leaves, and even its fruit or nuts, if your tree has any. Research the tree’s magical properties, whether or not its fruit or nuts is poisonous to people or animals, and its medicinal properties.
Take photos of your tree in every season and state of leafing. Have someone take a photo of you with the tree. Take a rubbing of one of its leaves. You might even want to paint its portrait. As you spend time with your tree, be quiet. Trees don’t use the power of speech as they have no tongue, teeth, or lips. They communicate through their roots. So sit on the ground beneath your tree. Take off your shoes. Place your feet flat on the ground. Lean back and place your hands flat on the ground too. Connect. Spend time together.
