CEREMONIES OF THE ROSE

The Roses are calling you – calling you back home – can you hear them? Will you respond?

The secrets are revealed – the energy moves gently yet surely through the landscape of power that is exposed as we stand together, the Sisters of the Rose, reunited in this age in order to distribute the information and knowledge of the sacred rose that has been kept concealed for centuries.

We are not alone any more. We are ready and change is possible. After all isn’t change just a choice? We are ready to be connected to the world in a different way. We have been the energy of difference. We are now ready to be fully received and to open diverse doorways of possibility. We are prepared to increase our vibrational frequencies. During the night we are journeying to the sacred Healing Fields of Heaven which we may not visited in a long time—centuries in fact. These sacred fields are reflected not only as the visible Fields of Heaven – they are also reflected within our bodies, our physicality.

An amazing thing happened to me whilst I was writing this book—I journeyed to the Healing Fields, and, night after night, I had the same dream. I was standing, observing the sacred landscape, with the rose archangels and great masters. As I watched, the tents took on a luminous glow with the most extraordinary colours. I do not recall having seen such colours before. Each person who came to the fields was allocated a special tent in one of these astonishing colours. With the tent came a distinctive rose angel who was attired in colours matching their special tent. I had the feeling that profound change was taking place for each person who chose to visit. And night after night the feeling intensified. When I see this amazing place, I feel quite emotional. It is so very beautiful and filled with profound peace and tranquillity. I am sure you too can see it if you look carefully. There are different layers in the healing fields. There is a key to a new level which is just being opened and which may well be facilitated by the energy contained in this book. Guiding people here to facilitate their own personal journey is really one of the most beautiful gifts we can give to anyone. The Healing Fields are the place to be for the rose people, their family, friends, and for all those who seek the enlightenment and the comfort of the sacred rose.

DEDICATION AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

This book is dedicated to the core of rose women who have helped so much in uncovering the nature and form of the sacred rose and whose courage under fire remains undiminished. May the glory of the Sacred Rose continue to support your freedom and independence, your right to be seen and heard in this world and your ability to make a profound difference within it. I salute you all.

INTRODUCTION

What would it take for us to restore, in ourselves and in our community, the sense of the sacred that is often lost in the fragmentation of modern life? What would it take for us to express our inner creativity to the world? What amazing changes would come from that? Embodying the energy of the sacred rose assists us to reach our full potency. In this book the ability to access higher levels of sacred rose consciousness is facilitated through ceremonies, initiations and attunements. These ceremonies enhance our journey of personal destiny. The descriptors – ceremonies, initiations and attunements—have been used interchangeably in this text – all mean the energy surrounding a move into a new level of knowledge and wisdom of the sacred rose. This energy is deep, all-pervasive and central to the depth of our understanding of ourselves as we journey within. It pre-supposes an understanding of the existence of a dynamic and enveloping world of energetic vibration coexisting with our material world.

Rose ceremonies in the form of initiation or attunement form a special component of rose energy training.¹ To initiate a person is to assist them to reach a different level of energetic vibration. Initiations are more potent and long-lasting when accompanied by an understanding of the implications of energetic change. To incorporate new energy permanently requires dedication—body work should also be a continuing part of this sequence. Symbol therapy is the foundation of the practice and it facilitates contact with rose consciousness, which is our own spiritual core. Rose consciousness is the pathway to advanced energetic vibration that utilizes the energy of the Sacred Rose. The appropriate symbol therapy to assist with the integration is outlined in my book ‘Rose Alchemy – the Reiki/Seichim Integration.’¹ The same ceremonies given in this book were used in the original highly secret Rose Academy which existed first in Atlantis.

There are eight rose initiations – and three money initiations—some linked to a particular life experience as a member of the ancient mystery schools, the Sisterhood and the Brotherhood of the Rose. Breakthroughs come when the energy of the two people concerned is activated and raised and this is entirely possible during any initiation. It is feasible to reveal the energy that we want to change in our world – with change as a result. Expanded energy levels and raised vibrations ensure clarity of purpose. A raised vibration reinforces the positive power of symbolism – and the opposite also applies – the symbols reinforce the vibration. Such power flows throughout the session that often personal symbols are gifted to the recipient. This can also happen if you are using this book to carry out the initiations – the words have been reinforced in a way that will ensure the highest vibration possible as long as the work is done with a clear and sacred intent.

One of the most exciting things about the Rose ceremonies and initiations is that they transform any repetitive cycles for all time. In so doing they contribute directly to the well-being of ourselves and others whom we touch in our daily lives.

In order to remember the wisdom and mysteries of the Sacred Rose it is important to complete all the initiations. Your own wisdom will prevail as they are life changing and may need to be experienced over time. You are the one who will know what is best for you! Once complete you can release any rose bindings and move into the new rose paradigm, the expansive energy of rose consciousness. You will be an integral part of the Rose Revolution!

In simple terms we may describe initiations as a way of creating positive change in one’s life. It is a way of saying to the universe – I demand change! I am ready! Of course they are much more than this – they are sacred ceremonial processes that bring people to a place where they can experience innovative forms of energy. The recipient can use this new energy in all sorts of special ways – to experience a fresh life, to move to a more expansive vibrational level, to generate rose consciousness – this list is just an introduction to an endless range of possibilities.

The energy moves gently yet surely through the landscape of potency that is born as we stand all together, the Rose People, reunited in this age in order to unlock the rose energy to contribute to a new rose paradigm of greater awareness. We are authorised to reveal the knowledge, wisdom, secret ceremonies and initiations of the sacred rose, those that were brought with us from the Rose Star, Sirius, in the very beginning.

There is another step to take before we move into the ceremonies themselves. It might be best to understand a little about the ‘way of the rose’ before we begin. So what is the rose energy? Who are the members of the fraternity of the rose? What is the link between the goddess energy and the rose? Who am I?

This is my journey into the energy of the sacred rose.

MY JOURNEY OF THE ROSE

The energy of the sacred rose found its beginnings in the mystery schools of the fabled city of Atlantis. It has been my privilege to follow the myths and legends of the rose from the time of Atlantis until the present day.

My first experience of the power of the rose was not one of my choosing. I was in a private hospital in Sydney and had just been admitted to my own room. Suddenly I was aware of a person standing next to my bed – a woman in blue. She was very beautiful and emanated a strange radiance. She told me I was to find out about a mystery school called the Sisterhood of the Rose – and to teach and write what I found. She also gave me explicit details of what would happen during my forthcoming operation. I was very cross – I asked her to leave – and finally she did. I was still upset so I asked for the Head Nun of the hospital to come – within minutes she was by my side – I asked her what sort of hospital she was running when a strange woman could appear at my bedside and spout what I termed ‘rubbish.’ After all I was a busy corporate woman with no time to waste on the inexplicable. The aged nun took my hand and said – describe her – so I did – she then said to me – my dear that was Mother Mary – she is quite a frequent visitor here. Well I was thunder struck—the operation happened just as she had described – and from the moment I woke from the serious surgery I knew I would do as she asked.

And so my travels began. Gradually the jigsaw pieces came together and I began to write and to teach. I became a master trainer in both Reiki and Seichim. We travelled the world and my amazing husband facilitated my finding places that provided another piece of the jigsaw puzzle. Early memories include rushing from a high flying corporate job in the city centre to a Balmain bookshop where I taught and began to impart the message of the sacred rose. At one of those seminars I met a wonderful woman who has now created a series of Rose Road cards. It is a selection of these cards, together with special photos of the sacred rose itself that illustrate this, the third book in the rose trilogy.

From that time to now supplementary information has been revealed – people find me in all sorts of interesting ways – some people see me in their dreams calling them as did a student in Mexico City – she opened up my website and found my photo – I was the woman she saw in her dreams calling her! Imagine how amazing it was when I received her letter – this woman is now a close friend even though we have not met in this life – Monic from Mexico City was kind enough to write the introduction to Book Two in the Rose Trilogy – Rose Alchemy – and in the introduction she describes what happened to her
