   In the pre-dawn hours of Sept. 6, 1991,, two days before new moon,   
   I had a vision of a glowing sky blue rose at night.  This is described   
   in more detail on http://www.nfld.com/~dalton/dtales.html in the   
   subsubpage http://www.nfld.com/~dalton/sunstare.html .   
      
   I personally link this blue rose to the blue planet Earth, or Gaia.   
      
   One meaning of the blue rose is the impossible, though these   
   days there are blue roses, but not glowing sky blue at night.   
      
   Do you know of any symbolism attached to the blue rose and   
   any instances of it in religious history and mythology?   
   Failing that, I am interested in symbolism and instances   
   in religious history, folklore and mythology of the rose   
   in general, not necessarily blue.
