Sacred Rose
Dear Blossoming Soul,
The truth is… I’m scared.
I’m scared I’ll be alone.
That I’ll fail.
That once I stop controlling everything, something will fall apart.
Control has been my way of staying ahead of disappointment.
Of trying to guarantee an outcome.
Of making sure I’m never caught off guard.
Control doesn’t create safety, just the illusion of it.
And underneath it all is the fear that if I stop holding everything, I won’t be held.
This is the tending today.
Daily Oracle Card
Today’s oracle is THE MYSTIC ROSE. Inscribed on the card are the words compassion, devotion, humility, humanity, and grace.
These feel especially apt when turning toward what lives beneath the noise, when peeling back the habits we use to avoid discomfort and looking honestly at the truth underneath.
My fear of not being held or met has often led me toward overfunctioning and control. This card reminds me that I can offer these things to myself.
Compassion.
Devotion.
Humility.
Humanity.
Grace.
The Mystic Rose also invites me to soften toward the world, to meet it with understanding, an open heart, and deep humility. To remember that we all carry wounds and move through life shaped by hurt.
This is an invitation to open my heart to humanity in the moments when I most want to close down and control.
Always,
Your Trusted Friend 🌹
