There are several instances in Through the Looking-Glass where the word "wood" or "forest" is used as a symbol for the tree.
This is a well-known symbol associated with the unconscious according to Jungian psychoanalysts. The forest was revered by the Celts as a sacred site. The "trials" a hero must go through in literature also include this technique as one of the tools they can use to help them.
