Tree of Clarity
arbor clarita paraguayana
Grows best where puzzled thinking abounds
Sitting under this tree, in the round hours of midday and full
moon, will bring great clarity of thought and dispel all confusion.
It is important that the Mortal sit without speaking and that
he come alone to the tree place.
Southern sages also tell that the mature, fallen leaves retain
some of their clarifying power (but not all of it) when they
are removed from the ground and transported over the hearth.
Steady fixing of the gaze will help clarify some of the smaller
confusions (but not the largest ones).
