The Summit of the Rose asks the questions: How can we be more fully in love with life? Are we living the call of our heart? What is feeding our lives, and our priorities? Perhaps it is the time to reevaluate. Holy times are upon us. Our great Mother is speaking. To enter into the heart of the rose where she resides. Asking all to re-connect and honor the natural rhythms of life and cycles of our humanness. To go deep with Her as She builds the bridge between the states of life called birth and death. What is calling to be transformed? What is calling to be rebirthed? There is an almighty power ready to be released within the heart of every human being. It’s purpose – the awakening of the soul. A work of great love and compassion. The healing of every human being is the healing of our Great Mother – it is the healing of all Her creatures – and we as part of Creation. Each human being is a mother, being prepared to die and give birth to oneself in the same life.
We hope you will join us in prayer, contemplating the deep mystical journey of living and dying.

Message from Omyene Grandmother Bernadette Rebienot, Owansango:
The period we are going through, like every ordeal that life brings us to endure, invites us to question our way of living and to see things in a new light. What message is hidden behind everything that happens to us?
Today, most of the world’s population is confined and Nature can reclaim her rights. In this regard, a break in human activity is more than welcome. Pollution is declining, animal species are repopulating. The whole world is at rest. What could be more natural after so many years of excess?
The real question to ask ourselves is how did we get here, reaching such a level of imbalance without any respect for natural laws, without harmony or restraint? Never in human history have we reached such levels.
We were all surprised by this crisis, generating doubt among some, acceptance among others. Everyone analyzes it in their own way. Can’t we see in it a form of natural justice which comes to impose itself and enlighten us on our condition?
This virus affects the entire population, no one is spared. Isn’t this a sign that nothing separates us, whatever our origin or our social rank? It is up to us to realize that the future of the human being is written together. We all come from diverse communities, with values and traditions that define our reality and determine where we recognize ourselves as an individual, but this richness must be lived with an opening towards our neighbor, whoever it may be.
Again, justice is expressed. It is social but also spiritual, because it shatters the illusion of separation in which we live. It shows us that humanity is One being and its survival depends on this achievement.
It is precisely this call that we, the Grandmothers of the whole world, must heed. If we are among those most at risk, it may be because we have a crucial role to play. It is we who transmit knowledge to new generations, remembering where we come from and who we are.
It’s time to get back to basics. Through prayer and the invocation of our ancestors, it is up to us to hear this global warning properly, and to share the message with as many people as possible.
Human beings are endowed with intelligence but, despite their desire to dominate nature, the latter will always triumph.
Let us remember that the central element is Life. It’s up to us to keep the flame alive.
