I’ve been seeing a chiropractor for a few weeks now, fixing a twisted pelvis and a curve in my spine, which I’ve had for a number of years but did not realise. My sessions are twice a week, in Winchester, so it gives me the perfect opportunity to not only have my breakfast in Kneaded, a great cafe with chef-cooked food, and delicious hot chocolate, but also to meet up with friends and do some energy work around Winchester.

Today, ( 28th Feb 25) Chris and I went to Crab Wood, in Sparsholt, Hampshire, to visit a tree. One of the trees I wanted to show Chris, we could not find, but we connected to some others instead. One of them, I wanted to specifically visit on behalf of a friend in Ireland, but to connect with this one, I first had to touch base with the Mother tree deeper in the woods.

As usual, when we meet a tree, we walk around it anti-clockwise. Once we had completed one circuit, we stood facing it, and Chris felt his heart connect with the heart of the tree. (He had received the heartwood symbol which Malia (a friend form California) and I had been gifted by a pine tree in Micheldever woods last October). Chris received his from the lovely old tree in Winchester Cathedral grounds last week, which I will write about too, as they are all connected.
Once Chris had connected to the heart of the tree, he saw bands of colour around the tree, half a meter above the ground and about a meter out from the tree itself. The colours were light brown, brown and orange.
I had the idea to walk around the tree again, to see if more were added, but instead, the rings moved with me. Chris then walked around it again, and the same things happened. The bands of colour moved with them. So it was our connection to the tree that was creating them. This was a new experience.

I stood with my back against the tree, feeling a pull to do that and Chris saw the tree reaching towards me as if it was giving me a hug. With my back against the trunk I became aware of my spine being as straight as the tree trunk, as though I was part of the trunk. Sap rose up my spinal column and into my head and from my head I was aware that the sap was rising into the branches that emerged from my head, as though I was the tree. The sap fed the leaves and branches in a delicious way and I felt very connected to the vitality of the tree itself, and to the sun, to which my branches were reaching.

Chris, with his back against the trunk felt the energy rising from the earth up through his feet and into this veins, spreading out through his body, to the heart, which was important because his heart was now connected to the trees. From there, it went to his shoulders, down his arms and out through his hands. Finally, it spread through his head, meeting at a point at the top. He felt the impulse to spread his arms out and then his fingers, so he too became a tree.

My biggest feeling then came from the tree to share her energy with others. The consciousness of the tree needed to be sent out to other people so they could connect with the trees in this way. She said that Mother trees did not differentiate between fir trees, oak trees, beech trees or larch, etc. The energy was shared, sent out to all, so every tree could benefit. She did not make the decision that one group of trees were privileged to receive her knowledge and energy while others had to stand in want, but that every tree would be given it. (later I understood what this meant when I received channelling about writing a book about the connection between Runes and Trees; not something I understand, but which I’m sure will become clear!)

As I stood with my back against the tree, I began to see a gold disc forming at the level of my lower Tan Tien, on the Hara line, its centre at my centre and expanding horizontally a metre out from my body. As I later discovered, this was an information disc, for the project of the tree book.

Chris was drawn to two oak trees a little distance away so we headed over to them. I had brought water from the two springs at Glastonbury, the red spring and the white spring and shortly thereafter, I found why I was told to bring it. As we wandered over to these oak trees, Chris was suddenly told that they were called Arthur and Guinevere, which completely surprised him. Then he was told that the Mother tree we had connected to was called Albion. He found this hilarious, and strange. But, I’m guessing this is symbolic of something the trees were trying to show us around the masculine and feminine energies of Albion.

Once we got to the trees, I was told to walk an infinity symbol around them, connecting them together, like I had done before here but on the other side of the woods. Once we had walked one round of the symbol, which is all they needed, I anchored the centre of the symbol where the lines cross over, with a sapphire, which relates to the sapphire level of the crystalline energy-field around the earth.

Focusing on the sapphire, I then saw a small white flame with a yellow centre grow from the ground beneath the sapphire. The white flame is a flame of renewal. I have anchored a white flame, much larger than this, in Coldridge woods in Wiltshire, which was my very first flame experience, but this flame had a tiny yellow centre. Not sure what that means but it reminded me of a Frangipani flower which I saw a lot of in Egypt.

Once this was done, it was time to visit the beech tree down by the road, which holds the sapphire energy around it. However, as we walked back towards the Mother Tree, I spotted a piece of iron, part of a plough which had been discarded. In Egyptian hieroglyphs, the plough (also called a Hoe) is not only a letter, Mer, but also a ritual object. In the Gaia Method Earthways, we use it as part of the creation of foundations of ‘temples’. In the past, this was part of the sacred building process of building physical temples, but in our work it signifies building energetic landscape temples. So, it felt like a little reminder that we were building foundations.

Although saying that, it could just have been part of a plough. 😁

We continued on our way to the other beech tree, saying a mental thank you as we passed the Mother Tree.

At the beech, by the road through Crab Wood, we connected to the amethyst sphere around the tree which I had anchored there last year. I had been ‘told’ to bring a bottle of water to make an essence here so, after pouring some of the Glastonbury water at the roots, connecting it, again, to the other trees. I took it out and waited for what to do. Immediately, an energetic, hand, that looked cartoon-ish, formed from the sapphire energy and plunged itself into the bottle of water in my hands. It remained there, infusing the water with its energy and then it changed frequency and became yellow topaz. This felt like crystalline sunlight.

With both of those energies now in the water, the last energy that appeared was the sapphire, which formed a sphere around the bottle just as the amethyst sphere contains this tree. This sphere not only contains the bottle, with its two energies inside, but also adds its sapphire energy to the whole. This is the first time this has happened so it was very interesting. I understand that the essence is for those who work with trees in this way, connecting them energetically to other trees and connecting an energetic tree-field.

It was interesting that the Arthur and Guinevere infinity connection was on this side of the woods. I had done the same thing at the other side last year (and which Chris did not know about) and two trees were also connected to each other with the infinity symbol, One was feminine and the other masculine. But it was a Mother and a Brother tree that had to be connected. Again, holding some symbolic meaning that the trees understood.

So that was the end of that, until I got home and channelling came through telling me about a connection between runes and trees. I’m still trying to work that out, but they did say it would take time…
