There is unrest in the forest Trouble with the trees For the maples want more sunlight And the oaks ignore their pleas The trouble with the maples (And they're quite convinced they're right) They say the oaks are just too lofty And they grab up all the light But the oaks can't help their feelings If they like the way they're made And they wonder why the maples Can't be happy in their shade There is trouble in the forest And the creatures all have fled As the maples scream, "Oppression" And the oaks just shake their heads So the maples formed a union And demanded equal rights They say, "The oaks are just too greedy We will make them give us light" Now there's no more oak oppression For they passed a noble law And the trees are all kept equal by hatchet axe and saw!

Don't know whether you will ever see this message..... So I was in the woods the other day, a very special place, and I felt a calling to one particular tree🌳🌳🌳 not knowing it was a Yew tree, or anything about it, I stood and put my hand against a large piece of the tree which had been chopped off. I wanted to give the tree reiki for where the human had taken her limb. I wasn't expecting this, but I felt a surge of love and healing energy move right through my palm, up my arm and into my heart. Having a very natural gift to speak and listen to trees, I heard it say, please look in my undergrowth, I have a gift for you. I looked down in the undergrowth and there was the very arm that had been chopped off. I picked it up and looked at the most beautiful impressions of red, deep dark blood red and brown on its bark. A very heavy piece of wood, approximately 3 1/2 ft by 6 in wide. The tree clearly indicated to me that it wanted me to take it home and I only found out yesterday that it was in fact a Yew Tree. I have often been told by psychics that I have a gift I should be a death doola... so it hardly surprises me that I had this connection to a tree, which pertains to the underworld, death, rebirth and the life beyond the life. I just wondered what you would personally do with this beautiful arm of Yew? Would you make runess from it, or perhaps magical pendants... or do you feel it's just something to hold and meditate with? Some feel it is bad luck to bring it in the house and so it is perched on my balcony in the sun. I do hope this is a good omen and a genuine gift from the tree and I would love to hear your thoughts. Using could be negative in any way please be honest with me to help me make an informed decision as to how to work with the tree gift 🌳🌳🌳 Thank you for your wonderful video. ❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing your experience in the woods. I would definitely leave it outside of the house. This will represent a form of protection. Because it was from the woods and not a graveyard it will be ok. Sometimes when you feel a connection to something in nature, there is usually a good reason for it. Place the wood outside you front door if possible , if not then on your balcony.
The claim that 'many' yew trees in churchyards predate the churches and by inference were planted in pagan religious sites is not backed up by botany and archaeology and is based on the flawed calculations of one Allen Meredith in the 1970's. The vast majority of yews in churchyards were planted at the same time as the construction of the churches.
amazing thank you for your work!

Such great video again
Good informative video. I love Yew trees - I like their strange shapes!
There is unrest in the forest
Trouble with the trees
For the maples want more sunlight
And the oaks ignore their pleas
The trouble with the maples
(And they're quite convinced they're right)
They say the oaks are just too lofty
And they grab up all the light
But the oaks can't help their feelings
If they like the way they're made
And they wonder why the maples
Can't be happy in their shade
There is trouble in the forest
And the creatures all have fled
As the maples scream, "Oppression"
And the oaks just shake their heads
So the maples formed a union
And demanded equal rights
They say, "The oaks are just too greedy
We will make them give us light"
Now there's no more oak oppression
For they passed a noble law
And the trees are all kept equal by hatchet axe and saw!

Typically flawed right wing ideation. Trees are not people.
Thank you ,it is said that if you have a yew tree in your garden you will never be poor.
I did not know this one! Thank you for sharing.
I LOVE Yew trees because their needles are so soft. It's sad they are associated with death, toxicity, and the underworld.

Here in the western us we have a yew that produces a powerful cancer treatment compound.
Yes Taxol and Taxotere made from yew needles . Trees are truly super and special.

The pink fruits are edible but the seed in the middle is toxic.
