‘Fascinating...I’ll never look at a rose in quite the same way again.’ Adrian Tinniswood The rose is bursting with meaning. Over the centuries it has come to represent love and sensuality, deceit, death and the mystical unknown. Today the rose enjoys unrivalled popularity across the globe, ever present at life’s seminal moments. Grown in the Middle East two thousand years ago for its pleasing scent and medicinal properties, it has become one of the most adored flowers across cultures, no longer selected by nature, but by us. The rose is well-versed at enchanting human hearts. From Shakespeare’s sonnets to Bulgaria’s Rose Valley to the thriving rose trade in Africa and the Far East, via museums, high fashion, Victorian England and Belle Epoque France, we meet an astonishing array of species and hybrids of remarkably different provenance. This is the story of a hardy, thorny flower and how, by beauty and charm, it came to seduce the world.
What happens when a former Zen Buddhist monk and his feminist wife experience an apparition of the Virgin Mary? “This book could not have come at a more auspicious time, and the message is mystical perfection, not to mention a courageous one. I adore this book.”—Caroline Myss, author of Anatomy of the Spirit Before a vision of a mysterious “Lady” invited Clark Strand and Perdita Finn to pray the rosary, they were not only uninterested in becoming Catholic but finished with institutional religion altogether. Their main spiritual concerns were the fate of the planet and the future of their children and grandchildren in an age of ecological collapse. But this Lady barely even referred to the Church and its proscriptions. Instead, she spoke of the miraculous power of the rosary to transform lives and heal the planet, and revealed the secrets she had hidden within the rosary’s prayers and mysteries—secrets of a past age when forests were the only cathedrals and people wove rose garlands for a Mother whose loving presence was as close as the ground beneath their feet. She told Strand and Finn: The rosary is My body, and My body is the body of the world. Your body is one with that body. What cause could there be for fear? Weaving together their own remarkable story of how they came to the rosary, their discoveries about the eco-feminist wisdom at the heart of this ancient devotion, and the life-changing revelations of the Lady herself, the authors reveal an ancestral path—available to everyone, religious or not—that returns us to the powerful healing rhythms of the natural world.
There's a little bit of magic in the air ...A story about love, friendship, and the connections between things … and people.An artist sits in his London studio, drawing roses. Unbeknown to each other, six women from all over the world have each commissioned him to draw a rose for a friend in crisis: Betsy, from the American heartlands, who's about to lose her farm; Lola, an Argentinian in self-imposed romantic exile in Spain; Amala, a beautiful Indian bank executive whose emotional bankruptcy has taken her to the brink of despair; Gisella, a young Italian housewife, who prefers her daydreams to returning to the job which she dreads; Miriam, a widow in South Africa, whose inability to stand up for herself means that she's oblivious to her own desires, and Kate, on the verge of marrying the wrong man, returning to Australia after a love affair in England went sour. As the drawing of her rose evolves, however, each woman's life begins, slowly and mysteriously, to be transformed …
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’.
