Pine cones, throughout history, have symbolized the "pineal gland", or "Third Eye", and by association the esoteric act of awakening it. Even the natural behaviors of the pine cone have an esoteric meaning.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As it ripens, the pine cone slowly opens to release its mature seeds. This process is symbolic of the expansion of consciousness that accompanies the opening of the pineal gland and the awakening of the Third Eye.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Will humanity as a whole give birth to a new awakened consciousness?
