HISTORY

Wearing the Tree of Life symbol isn't just a fashion trend; this ancient symbol represents different things to different people. For centuries, the Tree of Life has been a highly symbolic pattern for many cultures around the world. There's something about the Tree of Life that inspires, grounds, and calms.

It is a universal symbol that transcends religions and cultures, and no group can claim it for itself.

In Buddhist tradition, the Bodhi tree has always been revered, as it was under this tree that the Buddha attained enlightenment. The Bodhi tree represents the path to enlightenment and, as such, symbolizes life.

In ancient Egypt, the tree of life was believed to be a symbol of death and abundance, with branches representing the sky, the tree symbolizing the center of the universe, and roots reaching down to the underworld.

In Celtic culture, the tree of life is often depicted with branches reaching upwards and roots delving deep into the earth. It represents the connection between earth and sky, according to the Druids. The Celts believed that trees were the ancestors of humans and even saw them as gateways to other worlds.

MEANING OF THE TREE OF LIFE

The Tree of Life has many spiritual and religious meanings. Here are some universal representations of the Tree of Life:

🌸 INTERCONNECTION
The Tree of Life represents this bond, this connection that exists between us and the world around us. The circular aspect of the symbol represents the world, and the tree represents all that it contains. It also shows a cyclical structure with everything related to it.

🌸 STABILITY, STRENGTH AND GROWTH
A tree is a symbol of stability and strength. The image of roots sinking deep into the earth reminds us of the strength to overcome trials and tribulations, of being rooted in something. It also symbolizes growth, since a tree is the result of many years of slow and patient growth, the transition from a vulnerable sapling to a vigorous tree.

🌸 INDIVIDUALITY
Every tree is unique and has its own characteristics, if you look closely. At first, trees look alike, but over the years they grow and become unique. They gain character and beauty, enduring all kinds of difficulties and challenges to remain strong and vibrant. Like the tree, we are all different, and the tree of life reminds us of this.

🌸 RENAISSANCE
A tree may lose its leaves and appear dead, but when conditions are right, it comes back to life and beautiful leaves reappear. Thus, the tree of life symbolizes rebirth and the passage of difficult times. It is a new beginning, a new path forward.

🌸 FERTILITY AND FAMILY
The word "tree" is often used to refer to the relationship with family and ancestors. We say "family tree" to symbolize the numerous family connections with various people throughout the generations.

The tree symbolizes fertility and is the means by which life perpetuates itself, whether through seeds or saplings. It is green and lush, a sign of fertility and vitality.

🌸 CALM, PEACE AND RELAXATION
There's a special atmosphere when you're under a large tree, a feeling of strength, peace, and relaxation. It's a feeling we rarely experience otherwise. A tree rarely stirs. On the contrary, it's calm and peaceful, giving and rewarding in serenity.
