Hymn to Asherah

This wisdom tree, this wisdom tree,

Holy house of the Mighty Mother!

She

who journeys across the sky,

lingering in its arms.

This crystal root

stretches deep, deep within,

deep into the abyss.

The wisdom of the holy tree is this:

know thyself, asleep as awake,

and know the One is She.

Blossoming at the tip

of a quivering twig,

it’s good to feel connected

to a strong tree.
