   Almost a year ago,  replied   
   to an e-mail query from me with:   
      
   "Your blue rose vision experience is very interesting.   
      
   In the Rosicrucian tradition, the rose represents the soul's unfoldment.   
      
   The word Rosicrucian comes from the Latin Rosae Crucis - rose cross.   
      
   The cross represents our experiences on Earth, so the Rose Cross   
   represents our soul's growth from life experiences."
