TO PLANT A WALNUT TREE


In To Plant a Walnut Tree Trevor Waldock embarks on a quest to find how we can use our experience to create a fruitful legacy – something he calls eldership. Privileged with the gift of experience, elders can see the broader perspective and hold their leaders to account. Their wisdom may be needed to solve a problem, understand a dilemma, resolve a conflict or map a pathway through complex and unfamiliar territory. They make way for, and they guide, generations to come.

We can all aspire to live and lead this way. The discovery that one’s life can be a journey that makes sense, and not just for oneself in the short term, can change everything. Waldock’s compelling narrative may be the key to examining many of the challenges society faces at all levels – it speaks to leaders in all aspects of life, be they in business, health, education, or local and national politics. It is not limited to gender, culture, education or age.

SACRED WALNUT TREE TO BE PLANTED

WALNUT TREE MEDICINE WHEEL


A Medicine Wheel is a physical manifestation of Spiritual energy. It is a wheel of protection and healing. It enables us, to gather surrounding energies into a focal point helping us realize our visions and rise to our fullest potential.

Elements may be added or removed from a Medicine Wheel, bringing new lessons and truths to help us along as
we move through the wheel of life.

This Wheel is made from Black Walnut. The Walnut spirit awakens freedom of spirit, telling us it is time to break free of the cocoon. It will even herald
the coming of opportunities to follow our own unique path in life. Walnut is a tree of initiating and initiation. The key is to be true to one's self when aligning with
these energies. Self-deception and delusion result in chaotic disruption instead of creative transition.

SYMBOLISM OF THE WALNUT TREE

Walnut Tree

*Nature-Speak/Ted Andrews
Keynote: Power for transitions: hidden wisdom.

Walnut is one of those trees with strongly aromatic leaves, bark and fruit. There are varieties of walnut trees, each with their own unique characteristics. The butternut variety has a fruit that is a true dye. It will stain the fingers and cannot be washed off. Black walnut wood has been a staple of furniture makers. At one time, black walnut trees were so plentiful that they were even used for snake-rail fences. In some cases, the wood actually changes color when viewed and lighted from different angles. This hints at walnuts secret life and power.

The autumn equinox was a time for the ritual gathering of nuts--especailly the walnut. It was an act that was as magical as it was mundane. It provided food throughout the winter and spring, but the gathering of nuts was a way of using the equinox energy to awaken abundance, prosperity and wisdom over the next year. Carrying the nut was a way of awakening fertility.

The walnut has had many uses throughout its history. Its shell made excellent dyes. The nuts were turned into flour and added to cakes. Tea made from its leaves was good for stomach indigestion and other digestive imbalances. Native Americans used the oil in a variety of its ceremomies and celebrations. On the other hand, folklore teaches that eating the walnuts helped to cure and prevent madness.

Walnuts activate hidden wisdom within our own life circumstances. Its appearance alets us to pay attention. We will begin to hear and see things that have been going on around us but had not noticed before.

Walnut helps us make transitions of all kinds. This is reflected in its protective shell. We are less sensitive to the changes occurring. Its energies are often catalytic in the manner in which changes will manifest. The walnut reminds us that - if allowed to play out - all changes will be of benefit. The walnut cleans and strengthens auric field so we can see clearly what needs to be changed and how to accomplish it from the clearest perspective possible. Walnut holds the power of rebirth and when it becomes a totem or messenger, the esoteric aspects of death and rebirth become predominant for at least a year in our life. A staff or wand of walnut in meditation and magical practices reveals apply these mysteries constructively within our life.

HOW TO PLANT

Planting Walnut Trees
1
Walnut saplings do best if planting in spring after threat of frost. You can plant in fall, 8 weeks before you first frost date. Choose a walnut variety that is suitable for your region.

2
Plant your sapling as soon as you get it. If you cannot plant it straight away, keep the roots moist by wrapping them in wet newspapers or paper towels. Keep the roots moist, not wet.

3
Select a site that is in full sun with loose, well-drained soil. Dig a hole twice as big and deep as your tree's roots.

4
Create a mound in the center of the hole with soil. The mound should be high enough that when the walnut tree is placed on it, the trunk will be level with the ground and the roots will be completely covered. Place the tree on the mound and tease the roots out so they drape down the sides of the mound.

5
Add soil until the level of the roots are reached. Add compost or fertilizer around the roots. Two of three handfuls of compost are sufficient. Add the fertilizer according to package directions. Finish filling the hole, tamping the soil down around the roots.

6
Water the walnut sapling. The tree will need to be watered every other day during its first growing season.

7
Mulch your sapling. Spread the mulch to the drip line of the tree. Create a "doughnut" of mulch around the tree. Pull the mulch 1 to 2 inches away from the tree and create a doughnut of mulch 3 to 4 inches high. You will need to keep the mulch away from the trunk as your tree grows.
