Sacred Rose


Dear Blossoming Soul,
Welcome to the final week of the Sacred Rose journey. This week concludes on the New Moon, symbolizing the ‘closed bud’ phase of the rose—a moment brimming with potential for new beginnings and growth. As we approach this powerful lunar phase, it’s a time for setting intentions and planting seeds for the future, even if those seeds remain hidden from sight for now
Our growth can often feel halted or stagnant like we’re in a period of waiting or stillness.
In these moments, it’s easy to overlook the quiet, unseen work happening beneath the surface. Like a seed buried in the soil, there are times when our potential lies dormant, waiting for the perfect moment to burst forth.
Just because we can’t see the growth doesn’t mean it isn’t happening. The seed is simply biding its time, gathering strength, and preparing for its inevitable bloom.
Under the Waning Crescent Moon in Sagittarius, today’s energy encourages exploration with optimism and expansiveness. Sagittarius invites you to reflect on new possibilities and broaden your horizons, even in times of stillness.
This is a period of incubation—where ideas and visions are quietly taking shape, awaiting the right moment to emerge. Embrace this phase with a sense of trust, knowing that the timing of your growth is as much a part of the process as the blooming itself.
Ask yourself:
- What new ideas or visions are beginning to stir within me, even if they haven’t fully formed yet?
- How can I nurture these seeds of potential during this waiting period, trusting that they will grow in their own time?
Use today to reflect on the quiet stirrings within you, knowing that the “dormant seed” will eventually bloom. The journey may be slow, but the growth is happening nonetheless.
Today’s self-love rituals have you taking time to REFLECT & TEA

Daily Oracle Card

Today’s card, THE THORN, aligns with our theme of the Dormant Seed. It reminds us of the importance of protection. It also emphasizes boundaries and clear communication as we nurture new possibilities. Just like the rose guards itself with thorns while preparing to bloom, we too must protect our own budding growth, setting firm yet loving boundaries around what is most precious within us.
THE THORN carries the message that boundaries aren’t about pushing people away. They are about creating the space for growth. Boundaries ensure that the energy we nurture within is respected and preserved. As you explore the new possibilities rising within you under the Waning Crescent in Sagittarius, it’s crucial to create healthy boundaries to protect your inner world.
Boundaries allow us to communicate our needs clearly and lovingly, ensuring we feel safe and supported. Just as a seed needs a safe environment to grow, our dreams and intentions need to be nurtured with the same care. Without establishing these clear lines, we can find ourselves drained, unprotected, or misunderstood, making it harder to allow our true selves to bloom.
Ask yourself:
- What boundaries need to be set or reinforced in my life right now to protect my growth?
- How can I communicate my needs clearly and lovingly with those around me?
- In what ways am I taking responsibility for the care and protection of my own inner world?
As you reflect today, consider that healthy boundaries are not walls, but guardians of our sacred growth. By nurturing your needs and communicating them, you are creating the ideal conditions for your “dormant seed” to flourish.
Always,
Your Trusted Friend 🌹
