Uncovering the Divine Feminine: Exploring the Sacred Power of the Rosary with The Way of the Rose

Rebecca J.: I’ve read several books this year that I would describe as pivotal, even life-changing. This is one of them. A stunning mix of historical documentation of the rosary (prepare to be shocked) blended with the author's incredible and meaningful journey with Mother Mary, the rosary, and the Divine Feminine. The powers that be have tried to minimize and even eliminate the role Mother Mary and Her rosary have played in our collective spiritual consciousness. Her messages to one of the authors, along with the many received throughout history, are the exact words we need now. If you thought the rosary was only for Catholics, you are wrong. She belongs to us all, and the rosary is an inspiring way to access Her—a beautiful read. “Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, be with us now and at the hour of our death.” Although this is the traditional rosary prayer, the FB group “The Way Of Rose” and the online rosary offerings have opened my soul to some of the most beautiful prayers I've ever heard.

Lorelai Gilmore: ...it could have used a much more focused editor. If you're interested in The Goddess, ecofeminism, miracles, and mysticism then this book will be a real gem for you. The last section is especially inspiring.

Virian T.: I loved the book, not just the content about the rosary 📿 but the way of connecting with the virgin and the preservation of this beautiful and amazing planet that we live in. Simple, honest and sooooo enlightening.
Spirituality can’t exist without us taking care of the Earth and her inhabitants. ♥️

Maria De Los Angeles: The Way of the Rose turns everything I ever thought about the rosary on its head -- and I didn't think much about it at all after my first communion. As a recovering Catholic, I found this book to be a rewarding journey into new territory that is actually not new at all, as the book makes abundantly clear. If you're like me, a modern and very jaded seeker of wonder, the book is a spring welling up from deep sources. Climate crisis, misused technology -- all the ills of the anthropocene benefit from wisdom that goes way back to divine feminine and its many cultural manifestations, which in this case focuses on the Lady, Virgin, Mary or Mother. The rosary -- a string of beads with no strings attached, to paraphrase -- asks us to hold on to something while repeating words we can believe in -- words that don't even have to conform to any institutionalized religion.

The book weaves the authors' lived day-to-day experience, stories of their travels as well as cultural history into a revelatory narrative -- how the sacred touches our everyday lives. I keep it handy to browse a random chapter now and then, many of which are brief but rich in meaning, a reminder to connect that old...

Ines F.: I was looking for a book to learn more about the way of the rose but this book speaks about the rosary which is not the same thing. The title is misleading unfortunately.
But I am sure the story is still worth reading.

Michel Vander Straeten: When you open this book, you have no idea of the wondrous path of discovery it opens up for you.
Small chapters, where each sentence has been subtly matured.
And then The Mother speaks to your heart...

renee bolduc: The Divine is all around us and we need to reconnect to that forgotten reality. The profound yet simple act of connecting through the rosary is a tool anybody can use in the intimacy of their heart. Thank you for reminding us in these times of great challenges but mostly, in need of reverence to the Great Mother, awaiting for us to reopen our hearts...

Jennifer Moore • Modern Medicine Lady: Even though I'm far from a traditional Catholic, I've been receiving a prompt to pick up the rosary and pray with it for many years. I've had all kinds of reasons why I kept putting it off. I'm not exactly Christian. Actually I'm more of a Universalist Mary Worshipping Wiccan. Plus the idea of praying 53 Hail Marys, 7 Our Fathers and a bunch of Glory Be's felt DAUNTING. Not only that, my mother had left the Catholic church years before I was born and like many other people I'd been led to believe the rosary club was meant for practicing Catholics alone.
A few months ago I slipped and fell on the ice, smashed my head on our propane tank and sustained a concussion. Talk about a literal whack upside the head from the Universe! My life as I knew it came to a grinding halt. Interestingly this was almost exactly 3 months before CoVid19 hit the US and brought our country to it's own grinding halt. I have no doubt the timing of this was more than a mere coincidence.
As anyone who's had to deal with a concussion knows, this injury led to many inevitable hours resting in a dim room. About the only thing I could do was listen to audiobooks, cook food, eat and sleep. However, I kept...
