The pomegranate tree is one of the oldest symbols known to humankind. Some believe that its branches were the very Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.
Within this symbol lives another myth: the story of Persephone, who went down into the underworld to find herself in the darkness and then return to the light.
Both Eve and Persephone walk the same path, from innocence to maturity, from dream to reality, from sleep to awareness.
A ripe pomegranate opens up and shows its secret meaning: the freedom of spirit.
Mature feelings are free from dependence. Once you taste the pomegranate, you leave the world of shadows while keeping within yourself the harmony of Light and Shadow. In this harmony lies freedom, wholeness, and maturity, the mystery of abundance and inner strength.
A person free from attachment does not hold on. In this artwork you can see how the tree gently releases its fruit, carefully laying the path before it. Mature feelings are about the ability to give freedom and show care at the same time.
The ever-living pomegranate tree can be passed from generation to generation as a symbol of prosperity and the continuation of your family line.
