A Conversation With a Tree Spirit

Today I was sitting under a tree in the south of France. Sometimes I feel how my body needs a break from the noise, the world. I connected with the tree spirit telepathically, something I've practised for quite a while.

I was sitting on a bench. I connected with him in gratitude, saying, “Thank you for your shade.” It was such a perfect moment to relax. I suddenly noticed brown leaves falling off, reminding myself of the heat period.

Then, while I connected energetically, the tree spirit said something back that surprised me, as I wasn't even expecting an answer.

“I’m not concerned about my leaves,” while more brown leaves were falling off. He put my attention on his stem. “I’m already old, settled.” He continued: “This year I don’t carry as many leaves, you’re right.” Almost as if he picked up my thoughts. Then he gave me the energy of, “I don’t compare myself to another tree,” putting my attention on the other tree next to him, blossoming much more. There was a moment of deep peace, and I noticed it was the energy he was emitting.

It somehow touched me, as I can barely feel such a deep presence and peace in any human, if I’m honest.

It was almost like the tree spirit converted the next message to me: “Only you humans are far too bothered about your goals, achievements (= the tree's leaves, fruit). We’re not. Only you humans compare yourself to others far too often (= other people's achievements, goals). We don’t.

Then he was quiet again, as if his message was over, or let's say everything he wanted and needed to say.”

I felt such a deep sense of peace. My mind calmed. New clarity arose.

I noticed what a power trees hold, which we often underestimate.

I’ve been channeling tree spirits for quite a while. Usually, I keep my channelings and internal world to myself, as I know it can easily evoke judgment and weird looks. I was always scared of that.

But today it was almost like the tree made me post this. Share it.

And maybe it serves a deeper purpose why I feel the pull to share this. Maybe it can evoke some inspiration within some of you too, who knows.

Whenever you have a chance, or you feel you lack peace of mind or clarity, connect to the energy of a tree spirit.

Many people joke and say, “It’s just a tree,” but they’re wise beings.

A lot of them act from a far higher consciousness than many humans do, and while many humans are in full ignorance, going, “It’s just a tree,” those trees still hold space for us, provide shade, stand there so tall and strong, not being concerned about our judgment.

If you wish to practise your psychic connection with trees, here's how you can get started:

1. Go to a place and feel which tree you naturally feel drawn towards.

2. Ask the tree if you can touch him, if you wish to place your hand around him. Treat this spirit like a human spirit. You wouldn't just touch another human either.

3. Start a conversation in your mind by saying, for example, "Thank you for being here," or "You're beautiful," or tell him something you feel like sharing. Or simply observe his presence.

Follow your own intuition and notice how his presence touches you, or where this telepathic connection may lead you.

One thing the tree collective has shared with me is that they don't need to be saved. They learn how to take care of themselves. They want to be appreciated. They said appreciation and mutual respect are already enough.
