Spirit Food – Fig
ORIGIN
The fig is one of the oldest plants on the planet, outdating wheat, barley and many other sources of nutrition humans consumed throughout time. The fig dates back to Africa, to prehistoric times when dinosaurs walked the land.
The fig is best known for being the tree under which the Buddha received enlightenment. It is the first fruit tree to be mentioned in the Bible and some religions believe it is the tree that Eve picked from in the Garden Of Eden.
Figs can also have powerful impacts on everyday life, both in a positive or negative fashion. In Bolivia, they believe that walking under the fig trees can cause illness due to the soul-stealing spirits that dwell around them. In Papua New Guinea it is believed that evil spirits escape from the roots of the tree if they are cut down. Kikuyu women in Africa smear themselves with the sap of fig trees to ensure pregnancy.
