The horse is a symbol of power and freedom. These are qualities that represent Tived. The horse's mane is made of fir trees. These giants cover much of the landscape in Tiveden. The many lakes and their rocky shores are symbolized on the horse's back. On its side is a beautiful red water lily from Fagertärn. This horse has no saddle and no bridle. It is free to live its own truth. The Tivedshäst is white, the colour of prana--life energy. This horse, like Tived, is strongly connected to the power of the universe. The deep forests and their dark lakes contain ancient wisdom that can be heard by those who are quiet enough to listen. The rocks are the guardians of the soul. They are strong and enduring, like many of the people who have inhabited this area. Let the truth of your heart have the power and freedom of the horse. Let yourself be guided by the wisdom of the rocks, lakes, and forests. Let your spirit be filled by the beauty of the water lily. Tived is in the horse. May your spirit be filled with peace and serenity from this most precious place on Earth.
