A spiritual metaphor for life: the pineapple

Take the rough skin and note how protective it is. How much care it takes of the soft fruit within. Just as your Aura protects you and keeps the softnesses of your Soul safely wrapped within.

See the flesh as your body - fibrous and malleable, yet also firm. Your physical body is a wonderful thing. Perfectly designed for your world. Now note the pineapples hard inner core that gives the fruit strength and robustness much as your spine does your body.

But also this core represents the column of energy that flows through you aligned to your Chakras. Keeping you balanced and solid within the Aura. Holding the pieces of you together. Allowing your Soul to have a safe harbour within your physical body and this physical world.

Lastly, consider the leaves. Spiky and upward. Look at the fruit the right way round and they may reflect your thoughts reaching out to us, up to the heavens. But turn the fruit over and do they now not remind you of your roots into the Earth grounding you in this life.

For the pineapple is a complex fruit, but so are you. Complex yet simple. Complete yet seeking completion. The pineapple exists to bring joy, so do you.
