My friend took this beautiful photo of her mom and daughter hugging a Ceiba (Yaxché in Mayan), the sacred tree of life in Mexican Mayan culture. The Ceiba represents the link between the earth, the sky, and the underworld. A reminder of how everything is connected. Its roots reach into the underworld (Xibalba in Mayan), the trunk stands in the earthly world, and the branches and canopy stretch toward the heavens. Seeing her daughter and her mom in the same embrace, captured in this moment, feels like witnessing love, memory, and tradition rooted in one image.
