WELCOME TO SANCTUM OF THE ROSE - HIGHLIGHTS OF 2023

Thank you for finding your way here to Sanctum of the Rose, as we prepare to shift through the lingering energies of Solstice (Summer here in Australia) the festive season and then into the completion of 2023.

For me, as I am sure it has been for many of you, this calendar year has been a challenging roller-coaster of highs and lows and full of growth and change. My biggest highlight this year was my recent journey to Egypt through September and October, returning to the sacred lands once again in this lifetime and the memories of many lifetimes past. It is the second spiritual pilgrimage there for me, the last being in 2019, and so much had changed for me in those four years and again since returning home to the Northern Rivers in 2023.

The calling to release my decade long business The Wayward Path and morph and change into a more integrated container that has become, Sanctum of the Rose, was finally put into place after many profound initiations in Egyptian Temples, especially within Dendera the sacred sanctuary of my beloved patron Goddess Hathor.

During my time in Dendera with goddess Hathor, I entered the deepest trance state that I have experienced, in this lifetime anyway, and was shown lives past and also the path forward, the path paved with the Rose. The Rose was so sacred in ancient Egypt, the essence of beauty, love, power, mysteries and magick and also linked to the the afterlife as is Hathor herself is in her varied roles; she is celestial mother of the cycles of life - death and regeneration. Not only goddess of love, fertility, beauty, joy, music and dance but also sustainer of the dead on their journey beyond. She is one of Many Names - Lady of All:

House of Horus - Lady of Stars - Mistress of Heaven - Mistress of Life - Hathor of the Sycamore - Mistress of Turquoise - Mistress of the Offering and as Lady of the West she is responsible for helping the deceased make their journey to the Afterlife.

To me she is the embodiment of the Cycles of the Rose, and mirrors evolutionary growth and she has shown me how to be strong but soft, walking an integrated path with fierce grace.

And so I have brought home my wayward inner child, my distracted mother and welcomed them into my being with her support and also the support of golden eyed Horus, who gifted me my serpent crown of sovereignty and mighty Sekhmet who helped me to embrace my Crone. I am so very grateful to Trisha from Light of Lemuria tours for opening the way "home" again and for the 11 other powerful, magickal women that I shared this unforgettable experience with. Whilst there I was also asked to perform 2 meditative journeys and a Full Moon Ceremony, I am honoured to have been entrusted with this wonderful opportunity.

Since October I have been in a dedicated space of processing, integration and reflection that has opened the way for shifting much that needed to be let go of and to the refilling of the emptied space with deep healing and newly planted seeds. There is more work to do, there always is but that is why we are here experiencing this human existence full of lessons, as I have said before, "Ever a Student of the Mysteries".

And so Sanctum of the Rose has been birthed through the creative space of the womb and the expression of heart and in sacred devotion to the goddess, as well as to those that work with me and to myself. From Egypt, through the last 2 months and the Solstice portal I have regenerated and activated the deep need to focus on my group offerings leading me to create and offer to you the first in-person workshop of 2024 on 13th January in Chillingham, near Murwillumbah - Journey of Serpent and Rose, which is open to all genders but limited to 10 spaces to keep the shared container intimate. We have access to the creek, beautiful grounds in the community gardens and the hall is an old Cow Bale - very Hathorian.

And this is just the start of the journey of the Rose that lays ahead.
