Ep #350 - Whispered Truths - An Interview with poet and photographer, Safire Rose. I am delighted to welcome, Safire Rose, author of Rose Petals: 108 Whispered Truths from the Soul of the Rose, to Empowering Chats. This interview begins with the question, Why that title? Safire shares her story of the inspiration of the book title arriving directly from the roses which she loves. She not only writes about roses she also photos them. So the idea came from both her photography of roses and from her writing, the poetry that inspires her. Safire chose 108 roses from her photography portfolio and then meditated with each image, intuiting a message from each rose.The best way to experience the book, according to Safire is to look at the photo of the rose to that inspired the reading and see the petals and other details captured in the image as you allow it to speak to you. By encountering nature in this way, whether through a rose, a redwood tree or other plant you allow yourself to step into relationship with the flower, the tree or nature in general to receive the presence. Energetically you will feel a connection. It’s about opening up your senses and experiencing a mystical, multi-dimensional relationship with yourself. Safire says it can be a transcending experience – how I believe we were meant to live life – to be present and in the moment with what is – Safire’s book is wonderful in bringing you into the moment of presence. It is a contemplative book and one that inspires emotional connection. It is easy to get distracted by the world and have our attention robbed of where it truly belongs and so I believe it is more important than ever to make time for your dreams and your intentions to come to fruition. Safire Rose’s book, is one way to tap into your inspiration and accept the invitation to spend more time with yourself in nature.
