Axis mundi

The World Tree, Axis Mundi, Torus, and the Electromagnetic Fields The axis mundi is the central line between the celestial poles, the World Pillar, but also the tunnel or tree trunk through which shamans journey into other realms. The word šaman (shaman) comes from Siberian Tungusic languages and means “the one who knows” because a shaman is well aware that this reality is just a tiny branch of an ever-growing World Tree, Tree of Life, or simply World Tree of Life. Ever since ancient times…

The axis mundi (also cosmic axis, world axis, world pillar, columna cerului, center of the world). "When we go to the center, we leave behind time and place and separateness. We come to our Source and are in the Being from which we ever flow and in which we ever stand and apart from which we are not." ~ M. Basil Pennington,

Arbre de vie / Tree of Life

The axis mundi is an imaginary vertical axis or linkage as a center pole, running from the sky through the ground, uniting heaven, earth and underworld.

For the Maya, the trees constituted the ambient living environment, the material from which they fashioned homes and tools, the source of many foods, medicines, dyes, and vital commodities such as chocolate and paper.
