🌳 Deep in Limpopo, South Africa, there’s a tree that doesn’t just live — it remembers.
The Venda people call it Muri Kunguluwa — “The Tree That Roars.” When the wind rushes through its massive branches, it lets out a deep, earthy sound, like the breath of something ancient. 🌬️
Over 2,000 years old, this baobab has stood through storms, droughts, and generations, offering life to all who come near. Its hollow trunk holds up to 4,500 liters of water, elephants gnaw at its bark, baboons feast on its fruit, and birds, bats, bees, and bush babies make their homes in its arms. 🌿🦣🦇
But Muri Kunguluwa is more than a tree. It’s sacred. Elders once gathered beneath its shade to make important decisions, trusting the spirit of the tree to guide them with wisdom.
It doesn’t just roar. It remembers. 🌌
In its silence, it teaches endurance, generosity, and the beauty of being rooted.
Next time you hear the wind through the trees, imagine what stories they could tell… 🌳✨
