We have passed through the Solstice Gateway and may be feeling a little stretched in all directions by the recent astrological Grand Cross. The Cross ancient symbol which forms the structure of medicine wheels and returns us to the Great Tree reminds us that we are whole beings formed of earth air fire and water. We are fluid beings who can dance to the north south east and west. We are vibrations resonating through tears laughter songs and words. We are this and yet we are not this. We are all of it and none of it. We are absolutely in it and completely beyond it. We are impacted by everything that happens to everyone whilst being also precisely individuated. So when the waters of the world are polluted our tears taste oily when we sing for the creatures of the sea the vibrations are heard and felt. We are intimately deta... 2010-6-30T00:00:00Z http://www.therosewindow.org/page14.htm#66673 June News From Katie RoseJune promises Jubilation and ReJoycing as Juno Goddess of Fertility and Celebration invites us to recover our Joy this month. Finding the bliss of our truth can be like hunting for treasure without a metal detector. We may find ourselves in mental labyrinths or meeting dragons at the door to our preciousness or maybe our dream got so buried under so much lifestuff that we cant even remember where or what it was... As the roses bloom however we may catch the scent of inspiration and dare to dig a little deeper to break out from the bud and unfold in the summer sun allowing our beauty to be seen.May has seen many changes for me. I wish to extend heartfelt love and gratitude to all those of you who connected with me at Alchemy The Centre.

To initiate any change requires admitting we are always at the beginning starting once again with the fresh breath of a new day. Emerging like chicks from shells we can feel like we crack up as we crack open. To resist the chaos and madness is just to invite further insanity so lets embrace it all and dance leftfooted with glorious abandon along the spring songlines.Whatever cosmic jokes life is playing on you may you tread lightly this April.

Detachment is love without expecting anything in return and without self importance Deepak Chopra It is truly the perfect time to celebrate our own unique gifts and fine tune the way in which we can contribute to the collective.

This time of Initiation when we make resolutions and commit to changes in our lives urges us to become leaders in our lives mastering ourselves inwardly so that our outward leadership becomes clear and bright.True healing lasting change occurs when we have transformed the many levels of our being by tuning in and listening for the resonance of our heartsong. This may require a tuning out and letting go of old conditioning thought patterns and behaviours to make space for our true soul sound to resound.At this time when the magic of nature is happening underground we can dig deep in the roots of our being to find our true needs desires and intentions and align with the authentic source of our being.Wishing you a bright beautiful and insightful start to 2010 xxxx 2010-1-9T00:00:00Z http://www.therosewindow.org/page14.htm#54656 XXX SOLSTICE BLESSINGS XXXIn the deep winter night we celebrate the light In the flames of the fire we find our hearts desire In the branches of the tree we set ourselves freeIn the roots of the earth we find our true worth The light returns and we begin our voyage towards Spring...

Like the Roman Feast of Reversal Saturnalia when slaves became masters for the day Solstice is an invitation to seek out and celebrate the light within the dark and the dark within the light. It is to the evergreens that we look for inspiration midwinter to the Holly with its bright red berry nestled like a winter rose amongst the thorns reminding us that beauty and the beast sit side by side at lifes banquet to the giftbearing Christmas Tree the kiss bestowing miseltoe or the Buddhas Bodhi Tree whose leaves whisper the wisdom of enlightenment. Wishing you deep midwinter peace amongst the branches of the Tree of Life..xx 2009-12-12T00:00:00Z http://www.therosewindow.org/page14.htm#12241 The wonderful things about saints is that they were human. They lost their tempers scolded God were egotistical or testy or impatient in their turns made mistakes and regretted them. Still they went on doggedly blundering toward heaven. Phyllis McGinley 19051978 I find this quote remarkably reassuring. Have just read Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramhansa Yogananda and found it absolutely mind blowing and very inspiring.Not only are the Yogis in it capable of extraordinary happenings dematerialising and reappearing at will reading the future providing insight into the deeper mysteries of the cosmos to name but a few but they are also wonderfully human. To celebrate our humanness is to allow ourselves compassion and to share in the huge crazy learning experience which is life on the earth plane. In our weakness and vulnerability so I am repeatedly reminded we find our strength. It is the courage to be in the midst of the chaos which makes sense of it all.
