Essence maker, Amy Murphy-Watts, was asked to create a tree essence from the Cedar of Lebanon tree that is over 250 years old.
Creating essences is always a very special moment, but when you are asked to create a tree essence from a Cedar of Lebanon that is over 250 years old, well that is an honour. The Cedar of Lebanon was commonly planted from the 1740’s in this country, in nearly every stately home. Given the size and presence it has you can understand why. In its native home the Middle East it was used to build temples, due to its size and durability, with the essential oil being used for coughs, medicines and antiseptics. The cedar in the private gardens of Goodwood House definitely has a majestic presence and when you are standing beneath its boughs you have the feeling that you are just a passing energy, and that this tree will be there for many many years to come.
When you take the time to tune in to trees, standing under their branches, leaning on the bark or just sitting near them, most people will feel a sense of calm. It’s the perfect way to tune back into nature after a busy day, feel the grass, putting your back to the tree (or hugging the tree) and just taking the time to breathe.
And when I make an essence from a tree, this is what I am intending to capture in the water, the vibration and wisdom of the tree. And each tree has its own energy.
As essence makers, we capture the vibration of a plant, flower, tree or crystal into water. Much research is now being done to show that water ‘holds memory’. Its vibration can change, depending on what is surrounding it. For any of you who are interested in this please look up Dr Emoto or Veda Austin, there are many images of water showing different vibrations. We essence makers have always trusted that this is so, but the more research that is being done, much of it now scientific, is just more proof that we are all working at a particular vibration. And improving our own vibration means that we are emotionally more able to cope with the general stresses of life, being the best version of ourselves.
I felt a deep connection to the Cedar of Lebanon and set about making the essence. I am a pendulum dowser and dowsed to see where the best spot was to make the essence. I placed the bowl of water underneath the branches of the ancient tree and left it there for about an hour. I sat far away from the bowl, so as not to interfere with its energy and as it was a sunny day, enjoyed sitting a while. And apart from being checked by the head of security (I realise that what I do looks rather strange!) all went well.
The essence was ready after about an hour, having absorbed enough of the vibration of the tree. I then bottled it up with brandy, a preservative, and then I decanted enough for the Goodwood family to use. The Cedar of Lebanon is a particular favourite of Duchess Susan, and as soon as I had made it, I delivered her a bottle.
The message from the tree was quite clear. To take time to breath and be peaceful. To help connect with your Higher Power, the Divine, God, whatever you choose. Clearing away unwanted energies, letting go of self loathing and connecting with your ancient wisdom. Quite a powerful tree!
If you are in any of the large parks around the country look out for this tree and just spend a while sitting, breathing and being at peace.
