ALEX MACKENZIE ROSE Rosa “Alex MacKenzie”

Alex MacKenzie uses the unusual word fortitude to describe herself.  Fortitude means courage in pain or adversity.  This Essence helps us find fortitude during hard times or when we are called to make hard decisions and follow through on them.  This Rose is an excellent support when we know what we need to do but are not sure we have the courage to do it.  Alex MacKenzie can remind us that we do have the necessary inner resolve.
           
As with so many Flowers, Alex Mackenzie reveals its gifts in the way it grows. This robust workhorse of a Rose has velvety blossoms in a rich deep pink.  The blossoms look fragile yet they are impermeable to wind and weather.  Each crisply articulated petal refuses to crumple in the face of circumstances that would leave many Roses battered and bruised.  Alex MacKenzie's sturdy branches shoot straight to the sky, launching a steady stream of blossoms all summer long again.  This too is indicative of its stamina, clear purpose and steadiness.
           
Alex MacKenzie Rose tells us, "I offer fortitude in times of turmoil.  I AM the courage to do what you are called to do no matter what other distractions present themselves.  I AM ready to serve you with my inner strength and clarity of purpose."
           
I AM one with the divine plan for me.
