The Dance Lime Tree of Peesten (Germany)
 

Tree of Measurement

The dance lime tree is a sort of green temple. The way in which its leaves change colour as the seasons pass makes it an excellent symbol of the constantly changing nature of life.

It also symbolises the revival of ancient astronomical knowledge based on the observation of the times of sunrise and sunset over the course of a year. These points of reference allow one to understand the organisation of the Eight Nature Festivals which take place each year. Like a sundial, the dance lime tree is a “Tree of Measurement”, determining the various times of the year and the seasons. This aspect is more fully developed in the text on the Eight Nature Festivals
