The Tree of Life sitting on top of a phoenix. Logo for Sacred Resurgence.

     Behind this two-colored logo is the belief of being able to start over again even when things don't always look up. 

     The logo uses phoenix rising and the tree of life, which gives me that rooted feeling of newness. When we research the life that comes from the old ways, it's clearer, healthier and stronger.             

     This type of combination, having the phoenix rise and the tree of life. means that there is nothing limiting you. There is no glass ceiling. The only thing that stops anyone from going above, beyond and past where they have come from is themselves.      

     Not only is the tree of life rooted, but it has the leaves and the changing leaves that come from branches started from a prior life continuing into this new life. With these new leaves you are able to reach out, reach further, reach higher, and know that you can do anything your mind allows you to do. 

     When you see this phoenix rise. rising out of fire, the ashes that we believe have been left behind are not ashes. They are our paths, maybe our sins, or failures or disbelief about who we are, who we were, where we come from and now where we're going as we rise to the top.

     In Catholicism, the Tree of Life in the Garden of Eden is a symbol of Christ and His Cross, representing eternal life and redemption from sin. Just as Adam lost access to the Tree of Life, humanity was restored to hope for paradise through Christ's sacrifice on the Cross. For Catholics, the fruit of this Tree of Life is available through the Eucharist, which gives spiritual nourishment and connects believers to the life of God, offering a path to the eternal paradise promised in the Book of Revelation.

     In Catholic thought, the phoenix is not a literal event but a symbolic creature standing for resurrection, particularly the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and spiritual renewal. The symbol emphasizes triumph over adversity, a fresh start after trying times, and the promise of eternal life. Nusca, R. A. (November 28, 2024)
