The ginkgo is revered as a lucky charm full of mythical powers and has its origins in Asia. Thanks to its symbolic power, it can be found in many temples there. Its resilience and adaptability is fascinating:
The tree can live for over 1000 years and its species is said to have even survived the Ice Age. The bifurcation of its leaves stands for Yin and Yang in Chinese philosophy - so the ginkgo leaf is not only used as a good luck charm reminding us of our own inner strength, but also as a mediator of our masculine and feminine aspects as well as for finding our inner balance. This characteristic is even reflected in its Latin name Ginkgo biloba = two-lobed.
