The Spirits in the "tree" souls never want to be forgotten!

A while back a friend came to see me. He was concerned about another friend, who seemed obsessed with a tree that he drives by every day near his house. He was pulled so much to this tree, that he would just sit near it in his car for hours, and started to take branches home that had fallen off onto the ground. He was starting to act like a different person. He was having trouble sleeping, and couldn't think of anything else but the tree.
One look at a picture of the tree, and I knew right away it had been a "hanging tree"! I could picture the poor families from the area, women and children, lined up and hung one by one in the branches. This was done by the Indians in the area at the time of the great Indian wars. I could see and feel the anguish of the men they loved finding them there, and taking them down. There was so much sorrow.
The tree held on to this sorrow. I believe that many of the people were even buried close to the base of the tree. Some of the souls were trapped inside of the tree, since it seemed like a safe and nurtuting place for them. The sadness however still overwhelmed the tree and the area.

I believe that the man taking the branches was reincarnated from the time period, and his family were some of the people hung there. I immediately instructed him to return the branches he had taken, since it was the same as taking something from a grave. He returned the branches, and started to feel better, but still wanted to know more about the people and the connection. He visited the local historian to try and confirm what I had felt.

Within a few months, he was driving by the tree, and saw that it had fallen down. The parks people were removing it. The entire inside of the tree was hollowed out, the space where all the souls were residing. He had a sense of sadness, and at the same time a sense of relief upon seeing this. I believe that once the souls were recognized, and their horror remembered, they realized it was time to be released and move on into the light. No one ever wants to be forgotten. They want to be remembered!
