Product description:
Highly prized throughout history, the Cypress tree was considered to be sacred by ancient civilizations. Soaring into the sky its vertical growth and tall elegance represents to the ancients our connection to the spiritual life and is considered a symbol of immortality, yet its roots went deep into the soil allowing these higher energies to be grounded into the earth.
However, Cypress is more than just a symbolic plant, ancient doctors advised ill people (whether their ailment was of soul or body) to walk in their midst while touching them, to liberate them from their anguish and better manage the sorrows of life.
