THE FLOWERING ZODIAC
By; Karin J. Pekarcik


Following is an allegorical story of the soul expressing itself through life, revolving around the zodiac, beginning its cycle in Aries, and ending its journey in Pisces. Each sign of the zodiac poses a unique energy to the developing soul. Can we recognize ourselves in one of these stages?


Aires _The idea of the seeding is conceived in the mind of the gardener of life.


Taurus _The seeding is gently planted in the fertile Earth by the gardener.


Gemini _The seedling is watered from the element of rain, and now begins to stir.


Cancer _The seedling feels warmth and security, and takes nourishment from the soil surrounding it.


Leo _The seedling begins to grow as an independent sprout, and finally breaks through the ground. The seedling takes note of its individuality.


Virgo _The seedling grows towards the Sun's radiance. It feels the need to express itself.


Libra _The seedling realizes it is a rose bud. It feels the presence of other rose buds in the garden around it.


Scorpio _The rose begins to search deep within itself for the reason for its existence.


Sagittarius _The rose bud asks itself; "Who am I? What is my purpose in this garden?"


Capricorn _The rose starts to open its many petals to the radiance of the Sun. It shines out its beauty and essence to all who pass its way. Its perfume is its gift to those whose senses are awake and aware.


Aquarius _The rose begins to feel the beauty and radiance of the other roses around it. It feels the underlying connection of its many brothers and sisters in the garden of life, diverse yet at the same time alike in a myriad of ways.


Pices _The rose has lived a full and abundant life of beauty, joy, and radiance. It now offers itself up to the Fire, Earth, Air, and Water. It drops its majestic petals and dries and withers up. It is now ready to experience a new cycle of growth and expansion.
