Beloved Olive Tree

Her Golden Oils

::A love letter to the Olive Tree::

I’ve been spending my days slowly emerging from Mother Winters arms as Springs beckons me into her beauty & fragrance.. 

A true mother queen of Earth has become such a beloved ally & friend for me offering an invitation to find such delight in her heavenly realms. Olive Tree’s precious golden life-giving oils a true gift to my soul.. hydrating my body back to life, supercharging my cells with her robust sustanance in preparation for the turn of seasons. 

I adore the mystery of plants.. I’ve been eating olive oil my whole life, but plants are so brilliant in the ways that they reach out their branches, roots, fruits, or flowers offering their heart’s to join them in ever deepening relations.. Always in the perfect moment, the perfect time… plants are always on time. 

::So here you are, my love letter to this mother queen of earth::

In my longing to make every moment romantic & my quest to find all of Gaia’s most beloved nectars & scents, I take a longggg deep breath in & out.

Olive oil & fresh warm sourdough bread is my breakfast in bed at 1:00 pm. 

the windows are open a gentle breeze dances through my room.. the sun is shining the birds are chirping & an ecstatic bliss fills my being.

ahhh the simplicity of fresh bread & olive oil. 

Her charming warm love, her golden essence slowly drizzled on the bread.. like a taste of heaven i want to last forever.. 

As I slowly savor each bite & taste of Olive’s nectar, golden life pulses through my body. I notice Her essence slowing time down as I taste her liquid divinity dripping off the edge of the silky, gooey sourdough bread. How long can a moment last, I wonder? Does eternity exist within a moment? “To savor is to slow time down.” The Olive tree reminds me. 

Olive oil is a soothing nectar of Gaia. A warm embrace of the Mother. 

Her rich radiant taste the synesthetic fragrance of golden beauty. 

She is the savory golden counterpart to Honey, the sweetest golden nectar of Mother Earth. 

The simplicity of olive oil & fresh warm bread is a series of love letters that are never signed “goodbye” only “see you again soon.” 

Beloved Olive tree, you make my deep longing to make every moment romantic so easy.. you are the meeting of eyes & the love letter given between lovers who have been longing to find each other for their whole lives.. life times even.. You are renewals of declarations of love & beauty. 

You hold much magical powers. An ancient guardian & provider for life on Earth, some of your trees living thousands of years. You are elegant, wise, providing some of the most rich & nutrient dense sustenance for human consumption. Symbolizing peace, hope, light, renewal, victory, beauty, & reverence.. you are a love story, a love letter, & a beautiful celebration. Your heavenly aroma & taste has the ability to bring one’s soul home to profound nourishment / sustenance. 

In Greek Olive means ‘to shine.’ Your gentle intelligence is deeply rich with life. & your sacred golden oils help humans to shine by warmly giving them life & nourishing love. You are a heavenly realm of love, beauty, & nourishment. 

I love the way the plants of my ancestors weave their way back into my life in such loving ways.. Thank you to my ancestors for always nourishing me with olive oil & fresh baked bread. Tho I may be across the world, the lands of my bone people always singing me home. 

Oh sacred olive tree, thank you for your golden oils of light. One day I will spend the days under your trees, sipping freshly brewed coffee, eating your oils on bread with figs & plums, peaches, nectarines & grapes listening to the wind, reading you love letters & celebrating your beloved essence. 

for now though,  I will savor each moment I get to be nourished by your oils & taste in your heavenly fragrance. 

Love,

Jessica
