Pine trees also make good medicine. Pine needle tea is delicious

Wishing where did you get your chickens.

No, I they have all been cancelled. I have to get my dogs eyes checked and all the places around here are either closed or can’t do them till April.

The vets here will not allow the owners inside with their animals. Which vet are you seeing?

Person on the Northern CA thread needed to rehome them. She's moving out of the country.

They have the pine cone courtyard in the Vatican.

Very pretty and interesting, but my research so far indicates it is a relic of paganism, and no indication that it is considered sacred. Looks like it is basically an architectural element in the courtyard. May have been sacred to early pagans?

Many religions , native Americans, Christian
m
The most popular and widespread spiritual symbol is that of the Christmas tree.

There are many legends about the origin of the use of pine as a Christmas tree but the true origin of this tradition is not clear.

According to Christian tradition, St. Boniface brought down a giant ash tree, the Yggdrasil, which held all levels of the world from heaven to hell.

Instead, he planted pine as a symbol of God’s eternal love and filled them with candles symbolizing the purification and light of Christ.

Another legend says that Saint Boniface knocked down a huge oak tree that took with him all the trees that surrounded him except a small pine tree, which he called “tree of the Child God”, symbolizing its triangular shape of the Holy Trinity.

The tree far predates Christianity.
