Sacred Rose: The Soul s Path to Beauty and Wisdom

This book is an invitation to enter the Rose Garden: the sanctuary of the soul that resides within every human heart.

For the Rose is one of the loveliest symbols of spirituality in the western world: a timeless expression of beauty, love, and, ultimately, oneness with the Divine.

Each chapter will take you on a mystical journey through myth, religion, sacred art and poetry, including the Rose in the classical world, the medieval visions of Mary, the wisdom of the Sufi mystics, the hidden codes of the Alchemists, the ceremonies of 19th century magical orders, and the poems of modern visionaries, along with rose windows, the Kabbalah, tarot cards and more.

Within the Rose Garden guided meditations offer gentle but profound nourishment to the soul leading to a sense of inner peace and a deeper connectedness with the essential Self through a uniquely Western path.

One reader affirms: ‘I have travelled over a long time down many different roads to heal myself from the wounds I have suffered. However, Mara, it is your meditations that have been so fruitful for me. The Fire of Roses meditation feels as if on a deep level I have found and own myself with clarity and light’.
