I have been making up some beautiful Tree of Life amulets in various gemstones.  I have designed them to hang in a window, clear nylon line is provided.  They look just so beautiful and the sun will charge the crystals which then raise the positive vibrations in the environment they hang in. Some glitter in the sun and others like the quartz will also throw rainbows around the room.  I sell these for £7.50 at events and from my workshop or £9 including post and package in Britain.  Please contact for up to date availability.

Tree of Life Symbolism

The Tree of Life symbol meaning represents different qualities/virtues like wisdom, strength, protection, beauty, bounty and redemption. It is also considered to be the symbol of the 'Creator'. The tree is associated with the creator because it provides protection, supports abundant fruit production and thereby, regeneration. This analogy can also be used to describe the life of humans. We as humans develop 'roots' of our beliefs, 'branch out' by means of wisdom and the 'trunk' (mind & body) keeps them connected.

The Tree of Life meanings as perceived in different faiths, belief systems and cultures, resonates with a simple and strong message of unity. The Tree of Life symbol indicates that all forms of life are connected through a cosmic energy and that we as humans should live in harmony with rest of the living beings.

The Celts of ancient times believed that trees had several powers and also provided people with food, shelter and warmth. Different life forces including insects and animals took shelter in these trees. These creatures were in turn sustained by the Tree of Life. The symbol of Celtic Tree of Life has been preserved for centuries and is portrayed in various ways today. The different parts of the tree are assigned specific meanings. Roots of the Tree of Life are considered to be the foundation and they symbolize the Otherworld. The trunk of the tree joins branches and roots. It is therefore associated with the mortal world. The branches connect the worlds that are present above and below. The reason behind the Tree of Life becoming popular is that 'Nature' is worshiped through this symbol.

Kabbalists believe the Tree of Life to be a diagrammatic representation of the process by which the Universe came into being. On the Tree of Life, the beginning of the Universe is placed at a space above the first Sephirah, named Kether ("crown " in English). It is not always pictured in reproductions of the Tree of Life, but is referred to universally as Ain Soph Aur (Ain - Without, Soph - End, Aur - Light). To the Kabbalists, it symbolises that point beyond which our comprehension of the origins of Being cannot go; it is considered to be an infinite nothingness out of which the first 'thing' (thought of in science and the Kabbalah to be energy) exploded to create a Universe of multiple things.

Egyptian Culture: Acacia tree of 'Saosis' is considered by Egyptians as the Tree of Life. As per the Ennead system (nine deities) of Ancient Egyptian culture, Isis and Osiris are believed to be the first couple. They emerged from the Tree of Life.

Baha'i Belief System: As per the Baha'i faith, manifestation of God in reality takes place through the Tree of Life. In today's times, 'Baha'u'llah' the founder of Baha'i is considered to be the Tree of Life. The 'Book of Covenant' is also associated or identified with the Tree of Life.

Assyrian Beliefs: In the Assyrian civilization, a series of criss-crossing lines and nodes were used to depict the Tree of Life. The meaning of this symbol is said to be multi-valent and the priests have not yet concluded as to what is the exact interpretation/translation.

Chinese Mythology: A dragon and phoenix are included in the depiction of Tree of Life in Chinese mythology. The dragon is revered for immortality and 'Fenghuang' a creature similar to the phoenix is second only to the dragon in terms of the respect offered. There is a reference to a tree in a Taoist story, which bears a peach once in three  thousand years.                Wikipedia
