THE DREAMING TREE [sold]

Tribal cultures in Brazil tell stories of a mystical dream tree - those who fall asleep beneath its branches will wake with special powers of healing and magic such as being able to speak with animals and walk between the worlds. Here the Earth Goddess dreams among the roots of the tree, releasing healing magic deep into the Earth.

BUDDHA AND THE BODHI TREE [$400]

The Bodhi Tree provides shade to whoever sits beneath its branches. As Siddhartha dreamed under the tree, a brilliant light emanated from his head to shine over all of the earth. And though many distractions were sent to disrupt his meditation, he reached enlightenment and became a Buddha.

AVALON-ISLE OF APPLES [$400]


Many locals of Glastonbury in England believe the Tor (hill) that rises above their town to be the Island of Avalon - the otherworldly place where King Arthur lies and the Holy Grail entices, the gateway to the realms of Gwynn up Nudd - King of the Faerie. Avalon is sometimes called the Isle of Apples, the place also known as The Summerlands or Heaven.
