Probably everyone has seen an image of a pine tree in Japanese drawings and paintings. Battered by the winds, with a crooked trunk, it has become one of the symbols of the Land of the Rising Sun. Pine is a totem tree for a person who, despite all the blows of fate, has the courage not to fall and not submit. Such a person can be bent to the ground, but not uprooted. Moreover, the evergreen pine is a symbol of constancy and longevity.
