Some understand the Tree People as living perfectly balanced lives.
With their roots deep in the Earth, tall crowns high in the Air, and
strong trunks connecting & bringing everything together in the Here
and Now. Lower, Middle & Upper Worlds.
Through the ages, the Grandmother & Grandfather Trees have gathered
and contain deep amounts of wisdom and knowledge. They bring all this
together into the Here & Now. It is the Tree Peoples wish, and of the
Fae who tend them, to share this deep wisdom and understanding with us.
Go find an old growth tree, sit at its base with your back against the
trunk and try to join with with it and feel this energy. If you
start to get a floaty sensation or feel a little light headed and
woozy, it means that you are opening and starting to tap into their
energy. If that sensation makes you a little hesitant, just remember
that Love is the strongest force in the Universe. Love makes you
strong, fear makes you weak. At that moment, if you wish to continue,
then open your heart, and let all the love that you carry within, flow
out around you, and join with the Tree. You will know if you succeed
... then we can hook a basket to your feet and use you like a hot air
balloon :)
The older the tree, the more it contains, the more powerful it
becomes. On the south shore of Lake Quinault on the Washington State
coast, resides the worlds largest Spruce tree. This tree is so
powerful, the air around it actually shimmers. The Magick is visible
for all to see.
If you connect with such a tree, your roots will go beyond just the
depths of the Earth and all the lives and energies that the Earth
nurtures. These roots will take you into the Past, Time, Lives and
History. You can feel the Ages within your bones. The scope and
breadth of its crown beholds the possibility of 'things to come' and
holds open a window to look through. The immensity of its trunk is the
container of all this power, wisdom and understanding. To join with
it, you will step outside of our linear time line. The Past and Future
will be in the Here & Now. As the Tree People and those beings who are
with the tree, live.
You do not have to travel way out to Lake. Quinault, although it is a
worthwhile pilgrimage. Find an old growth tree closer to home. Ask Him
or Her to teach you, then listen for their words. They may come as a
sound or voice, or feeling the words are within your mind, or the
understanding of what they are sharing may seem to just flow upwards
from within yourself. When an old growth tree is cut down, all this
wisdom flows back into the Earth and is lost to us until that Tree
Spirit can be reborn and reaches its old growth state again.
There is a Guardian at this Gate. Most of the Guardians throughout
Mythology are Human descriptions of this Guardian or Guardians, but
over time, they have come to be interpreted as creatures outside of
ourselves. But this Guardian is not outside but contained within
ourselves, allowing us access only when we are ready. The password ...
is Love.

You got that right, the password is love.
I love communing/communicating with tree people. When I moved to New Zealand I was amazed at the beauty and wisdom of tree beings, here. The Kauri, (a short video) Tane Mahuta Tree, took my breath away when first I saw him. He spoke words of wisdom that were put into a poem, (photos follow) the Pohutukawa is the NZ Xmas Tree which turns red of course at holiday time, and the Puriri is strong healing Tree, she will not be moved when she roots herself deeply.
Thanks for this beautiful post Jennifer!! Yes folks ask permission to enter before you move into the bush or the forest, and then listen if its time to go in...that way you can gain passage into the spirit realm as well as the physical one and interact consciously with the beings who live there.
Blessings from the land of the long white cloud!
