Navigating Grief Through Intuition and Oracle Cards

I felt inspired on my way home today, an idea came into my mind and suddenly I had a beautiful urge to get home and get outside with my camera. As I stood outside in the snow, with my camera, looking at the trees and snow, I began thinking about it, in a sense getting excited about it how I could take my healing to the next level, to speak from an authentic, strong voice, not afraid to share her vulnerability. Taking my own healing to the next level, respectively.

I leaned into my intuition, should I ask for confirmation, is this something I should do given I have had very mixed emotions. I was guided to my den, I sat down and just allowed myself to be in the flow. I reached for my Palo Santo and lit it, I had 2 oracle card decks out on my desk, I instantly heard not those. I put them on the shelf and asked, which one, as I looked at the deck and knew – The Rose Oracle by Rebecca Campbell.

My brother loved roses, one of the last gifts he also gave was a rose quartz bracelet to our grama.

I began shuffling the deck and a card quickly fell out, Brothers of the Rose.

Brothers of the Rose; Sacred Masculine. Honor. Protection. Support.

Of course, as tears filled my eyes. The right side of my body, has been quite tight, when my husband and I went for an energy treatment a couple weeks ago, he instantly picked up on the fact that I wasn’t breathing properly and that my husband was trying to help balance me. Which wasn’t working, I was very off. So for this card to fall from the deck, Brothers of the Rose and speak of masculine energy… I knew it was a message from him.

An excerpt from the deck guidebook,

“This card could be a sign that you’re being called to work on the sacred masculine energy within you that’s maturing and rising. It could be that you’re being called to work on ancestral healing of the paternal line. It could be an indication that you’re being called to invoke or acknowledge the sacred masculine in those around you. Or it could represent the sacred masculine appearing in your life.

The sacred masculine exists within all of us. They are encircling you so that you can do your sacred work – so that you can be part of the return of the Goddess on this Earth. The rose is their emblem, and they wear it proudly on their hearts.”

The masculine is within the doing, whereas the feminine energy is being.

I welcome this 2026 shift!
