Eastern White Cedar Medicine Story

Abstract

Using an anthropomorphic approach, a narrative is established from the perspective of Eastern White Cedar, to embody the spirit of the animate being. The characteristics of cedar are visualized through a meditative script. The contemplative prose aspires for a harmonic and peaceful experience that elevates an understanding of the cedar's relations, integral connections, and its surrounding environment. The responsibilities and functions of the cedar's relationships and interconnections, as well as its surroundings, are introduced, including the value of a symbiotic interaction among organisms. The goals and fears of the sacred medicine are identified.
