On Tuesday, I returned from Stockport, I went through the most unusual tree and I think I have ever seen it (this says something as I saw a lot) on the A515 towards Ashbourne. It was a tree full of shoes and shoes hanging from the branches …
This was strange to stop taking a look at myself and asked myself if he symbolized the number of people who have lost their lives on the road curve?
However, after returning home and searching in the tree, she discovered that she had some meaning, although she is discussed … somewhat mysterious.
the site Ludchurchmyblog The documents that the common belief is that travelers who are going through will throw their old shoes in the tree as a form of happy luck or to celebrate their journey. Over time, this tradition has turned the tree into an attractive and unexpected road side.
It also states that some local population claims that the tree has magic properties. They believe that the shoe suspension in the tree brings good wealth and exceeds bad luck. Others say that shoes represent lost souls or travelers who never return …
However, I came across a Facebook post suggested some other meanings of the tree. One of the commentators wrote:
“One of the ancient warriors in the army told me that he used to drink in the old club that was when people were leaving Boxston, it was a tradition that your husband’s most revolutionary husband was suspended in the tree, so to start your new way in new shoes. Dunno how true but I loved the story ♥ ️ ‘
Since the publication of our superficial page on Facebook, I discovered that this was not of its kind, there have been a few across the United Kingdom.
Although many believe that by hanging shoes/shoes in a tree may be associated with the gang, it seems to have many spiritual meanings.
Some suggest that it indicates a person who died, with a shoe belonging to the dead person, and when their soul returns, you will walk high above the ground, closer to heaven.
The Buxon Boot Tree tree and its story seems to be a puzzle forever … and I think there are many other stories because people do this tradition.
So, if you are reading this blog and hung your shoes or shoes in its branches, I will be interested in knowing the story that attracted you to do this.
