sub rosa

hidden in plain sight. mysteries. learning + teaching.

This week’s reflection is from the Rose Oracle.

The rose has been a symbol of secrecy for millennia. The ancient Romans wore rose garlands on special occasions and when these were hung above important meeting places, the conversations that took place beneath were considered sub rosa, or ‘under the rose.’ It was understood that things said ‘under the rose’ would be kept secret and not repeated. There’s also an image of the ancient Egyptian God Horus sitting with a rose and holding his fingers to his lips, symbolizing silence about the deep mysteries.

The card is a reminder that the great mysteries are available to us to uncover + remember. Secrets that are waiting to be found, teachings that your soul might be ready to learn.

Look beyond what your eyes can see + dig deeper.

You are here to uncover lost wisdom, ancient secrets + deep mysteries.

Are you being called to study the great mysteries, to live the great questions, + step into your role as a teacher, guide or mystic? Are you being called to question things + unearth the truths unknown?

Soul inquiry

Press play + journal/reflect on the question underneath

What are you being called to study, learn more about, or unearth?

May we remain compassionate encountering souls disconnected from the truth of who they are: love💗

May we remain open, soft, loving + forgiving when we’re treated any way other than what we deserve ☯️

May we continue to embody peace + walk lightly through our days 🪄

One step at a time.
One breath at a time.

And so it is + so it will be.
