Simply look around you,look into the eyes of a child, into the eyes of your lover, your mother, your friend, or simply touch a tree. Have you ever hugged a tree? Hug a tree right now... One day you will come to understand that not only did you hug the tree, but the tree also responded, it also hugged you back. Then for the first time you will discover that a tree is not just an object, it is not just a certain type of plant described in encyclopedia. It is an unknown God in your backyard – so green, so blooming, so close to you, beckoning you, calling you again and again.
Experience is something that can be written down in a notebook, used in a movie or posted on a social network. “Experiencing” the experience is a feeling of surprise, a thrill of merging, a gentle touch and a feeling of our connection with everything that surrounds us.
The woman on this card is not just touching the tree – she is in unity with it, she practically became one with it. This is an old tree that has seen hard times. The woman’s touch is soft, respectful, and the white color on the inside of her cloak reflects the purity of her heart. She is modest, simple, and she has the right attitude towards nature. Nature does not hit the drums when it is expressed in a flower, it does not play funeral music when the trees let their leaves fall. When we have the right attitude towards nature, it can share many secrets with us.
If you have never heard what nature was whispering to you, it is time to give it a chance.
