The Rose

[Guest guest]

The Rose

 

The Rose is a symbol of love. That beautiful rich red rose. Kundalini is all

about love and the transformations that come from the multi aspects of love. The

gentle yielding love and the unyielding love. The phenomena based love of the

divine in action. The love of nurturing and the harsh love of lessons being

given and received. The love of God upon the physical being. The love of the

sacred Mother as she guides us and transforms us and helps us to embrace our

imperfections while changing them in the process.

 

The gradual unfolding of the bud into the brilliant living flower of such aroma

and beauty that it has held the five bodies of expression in humans spellbound

and in love in its grace for thousands of millennia.

 

The sharp thorns representing our ascension into our inner balance as we

carefully grasp our issues and learn how to balance them through the grace of

the divine within us. The thorns of protection symbolizing the strength of the

grace expressing through us as we learn to fearlessly go and do as we are given

from the inner grace to go and do in the outer world of challenge.

 

The rose captures us with its truth as the Romans understood as they would stand

under the rose and obeyed its unspoken command to let truth be given and

received in " Sub-Rosa " meaning truth under the rose.

 

The bloom is eaten and cherished and the petals strewn upon the ground by

children and virgins as a marriage ceremony is about to proceed underscoring the

sacred truth of the event.

 

Kundalini is as much a Rose at the heart as it is a Lotus upon the fontanel. It

is as these two forms of grace conspire upon and within us to assist our reach

into the inner and outer heavens.
