Let's imagine that you're a tree.
And in spring and summer, you are the happiest, most aligned version of yourself.
You are bearing fruit, you have all of your leaves and you feel the most confident, aligned version of you.
And then the season starts to change...
Your leaves start to fall.
The fruit...
Nowhere in sight.
And you superstitiously ask yourself:
What did I do to cause the leaves to fall?
What did I do to change this experience?
And as the tree with no leaves and fruit, you start to feel separate,
Unseen,
Insecure,
Fearful of circumstances.
Then projected upon that
Is a belief that all of these symptoms
Show that you are not as aligned as you were
In the previous seasons of spring and summer.
And then this spiritually oriented superstitious tree says:
What do I need to do to get back to the confidence that lets me know that I am aligned?
And so the tree engages in various spiritual processes...
Healing modalities
And works and works and works,
Through the fall
And through the winter.
And the moment the winter
Becomes
Spring...
The leaves come back.
Fruit is regrown.
And the tree thinks:
I must have done it right!
I am back in my alignment!
And this happens
Seasons
After season
After season.
Until the wisdom of the tree says to itself:
It is not your doing that causes the leaves to fall.
It is not your doing that causes the leaves to return.
It is simply,
You
Discovering the seasonality of experience.
To which the tree says:
But I should be able to be as confident in the fall and the winter, as I am in the spring and the summer.
And the wisdom replies:
That's not what it's meant to be.
That's not the experience fall and winter have for you.
And to experience that you are less aligned during seasons that purposely bring up scarcety, insecurity and vulnerability...and to then imagine all the extra busy work that has to be done to reclaim what is only meant to return at the season in which it belongs, is just a dream. A dream that this awakening tree will wake up from.
