Walk among the trees, loose yourself in the woods, find your way to the grove...

"Magick often works with symbols: as you walk amidst the trees, you are changing yourself and your world. The harp of the woods sings sweet melodies. What is the next enchantment on your way? Find it and go for it." (Fries: "Cauldron of the Gods, page 511)

"Sometimes man looses his contact with the Great Spirit. He must then try to reestablish it. To do so he sits down on the ground near a tree and looks at it. He continues to look at it - UNTIL THE TREE LOOKS BACK AT HIM!" (Qoute from: Danielson: "Träd i Marker och Myter")
