KONIGIN VON DANEMARK ROSE  Rosa “Konigin von Danemark

This Rose was first grown in Germany in 1816 during a time of interest in the fragrance of Roses and a heightened search for “perfectly shaped blossoms”. “Queen of Denmark” with its silvery pink unfurling blossoms and equally lovely perfume make for one seriously beautiful Rose.  Better yet, its Essence addresses and unravels this less than positive dynamic of searching for perfection.

Any human idea of perfection sets off a reaction of “less than” in pretty much everyone.  This Rose Essence addresses in particular the place we can fall into when an event occurs repeatedly and our personality goes into a shame spiral of judgment, built on the assumption that a repeated experience means we have not learned our lessons and therefore have not learned things perfectly. 

This Rose helps to set us free from this shame spiral reaction to open us to the possibility that this may not be the dynamic at all.  It helps us know that the spiral nature of our spiritual evolution means that we often come round to experience the same difficulties again, not because we haven’t learned anything, but because the difficulties present opportunities for us to bring greater light to the same dynamic and thus move onward and upward through a dynamic that might previously have stymied us.  This Rose is all about freedom, most pressingly, freedom from our own judgments.

I AM a release from all patterns of judgment.
