Greenman
Wild Man of the Woods
The roots of the Greenman go deep into our psyche. He is the cycle of death and rebirth through personal sacrifice. He is the primordial self who seeks to express his wild nature in tame elements. Through his explorations, the greenman finds his place in the world and his rhythm in nature. It is by making mistakes that he learns who he is and who he is not. This basic instinct to discover his limitations and rise above them pushes him to be strong and fearless when faced with any situation.
There is a greenman or greenwoman in everyone. When you are ready to go looking, set up a place to meditate and light this candle. Go deep within to find your primordial self. This strength is found low in the belly and is more in tune with the earth and the stars than it is with your ego.
You will know you have found it when you can feel the heart of the earth beating. Let the wisdom of the greenman within teach you about your own wild nature and the cycles of life. Learn how you can use this power to overcome your own hurdles and find your own natural place in this world.
