Last week I have visited the 1000 Year old Lime Tree in Heede, Germany.
I do not believe this tree is 1000 years old, I have meditated a while in the tree, and came at estimately 1100 years.
This tree survived several wars, and has been saved from being used for heavy weaponry construction (catapults) by one of another general from an army in the middle ages. I became disturbed by other visitors, so my meditation stopped here.
I'll come beack here next time, while in the tree I became earthed as never before... ..well that's a lie, but it earths good. ;)
Huge
In the tree, yes with my dog. (Sorry for the bad quality)
I'll update this blog once I have visited this tree again.

The oldest and biggest European linden in Heede
She is just there. Just strike the path along the Volksbank in Heede and you can not miss. What a tree. With over seventeen meters circumference and 15 tribes this tree is very present. It seems experts say the oldest and biggest in Europe by lime. A lime is soon, in our country, a millennial lime mentioned, but in the case of that of Heede seems really true. The tree is huge in size and at a height of several meters they branched into fifteen tribes, each with a size of more than a mature tree. Really a tree to bow before it. Heede also located one kilometer east from fifteen Bourtange in Groningen.
The story goes that the first solitary lime grew up a small rise. Only in 1467 the fortified town was built around it Schärpenburg The lime tree and acted as the court place to gather the sincere. Of Schärpenburg is nothing more to be found. In 1673 this town was completely burned by the Dutch. The commander, a Swedish general in Dutch service called Rabenhaupt, even ordered the linden tree that survived the war had to be cut. Fortunately, that sentence was never carried out and the tree saved. In 1942, a hurricane tore off three strains. The lime survived. In 1945 was almost sealed the fate again. The German army in its final days when she thought that the tribes would cut off a wonderful platform would remain for placement of a cannon. Fortunately some Nikolaus Kuper here on a last minute stop to stabbing.
In 1983, another tribe cut away. This strain was so eroded that the situation became too dangerous. But all in all, they are now. "The Linde Dicke," as he called in Heede. What a life this monument behind. Thousand years events unfolded around this tree. Unique, a monument.
There is still an annual procession to the lime. Many priests have nominated the Mass from the belly of the lime.

I'm just back, actually wanted to spawn a new blog, but I'll do that later on another recurrent visit.
What struck me was the serene athmosphere energetically spoken.
It must affect the aura, because I felt calm and loved. And this is not just me, because what struck me too are all the visitors, many people visit this tree, even on this rainy day. I walked three rounds around the tree and emptied my mind. A lot of images streamed in my inner-eye, and I'd love to investigate further on that on another time. For now I just let the Love flow in and out. If I am not misunderstood then the energy coming along the michael leyline through stonehenge to moscow is unblocked in this area. It felt good.
I burried a precious crystal in the tree, lit a candle in the tree, and wished him blessings.
I will come back. :)
That is awesome.. I guess the energies inside and around this tree is high. Think for a second how much wisdom this three has got during all this years..
It's today a gray day on this holiday, a nice day to bring a visitation to this almighty tree again.
And there is another Fortress close to these places, a Star Fortress built during the Eighty Years' War (c. 1568–1648) when William I of Orange wanted to control the only road between Germany and the city of Groningen which was controlled by the Spaniards. This road followed a sandy ridge (tange) through the marshes.

This tree is closely related with the hundreds of trenches I discovered in the Elemental Forest Fortress.
