The Celtic Rose as a symbol of my work with clients

The symbol itself can sometimes, when studied, give further information about the person who chose it and the depth of work possible.

The Celtic Rose is considered a symbol of purity of the heart. In general, the Rose has been associated with the Virgin Mary, sometimes called the “Holy Rose”. In Celtic mythology, rosettes were associated with the sun and the Celtic solar god. Thus, the rose symbolized both heavenly perfection and earthly passion.

For me, the Celtic Rose, centered and circled in a square figure, is a bridge-like symbol connecting and containing our spiritual yearnings to be created on earth. The image in the center invites us to go deep within ourselves to make the connections. Astrology, with its message “As above, so below”, is a technique to help us in this endeavor.
