Week 14: Symbolic
“There are spirits in the trees, if you know how to listen.”
Week 14: Symbolic
“When the spirits awaken.”
A dear friend invited me to her cabin in Montana, and not far from the road, we stumbled on these trees—tall, still, watching. I knew immediately: this was sacred ground. The kind of place where stories live in the bark and the spirits hum beneath the pine.
At night, we returned with intention.
My friends helped paint light behind the trees—summoning forms that felt alive, like forest spirits coming forward to dance with me. I held my book, stepped barefoot into the clearing, and let the moment unfold. I moved with the silence, the shadows, and the stories we couldn’t see, but could feel all around us.
This image is a collaboration of imagination, light, and sisterhood. It speaks of unseen energy, magic in the everyday, and the way symbolic storytelling reveals itself when you slow down and listen.
