Part 2

NEW EARTH, BROKEN HEARTS AND DJEVENA OF ROSE

Few weeks later we returned to Australia. Some heartbreaking situation occurred, as they do now and then in life. I was hurt and was looking for clarity in situation and medicine for my broken heart. I was digging deeper into Balkans too, I was looking for more clues on what is it about that home land of mine, why I feel such a powerful, undeniable call to introduce to the world those lands, waters, pyramids and culture. Why all this passion on its sacredness and mysteriousness? 

It just happened so, that one of most important cure for my heartbreak was Wendy’s tarot reading. Wendy was introduced to me by Jane, who travelled with us to Balkans and Bosnian pyramids in May 2024, the accuracy of her readings was incredible. I saw some of her readings related to Bosnian pyramids before, I thought, her insight is brilliant. And it just happened so, her YouTube channel is called…Blue Rose Tarot. No coincidences here, right?

So, Wendy was of a great help, she played the role of my healing facilitator. One thing led to another, and Jane introduced me to her another close friend, Gisela. And Gisela introduced me to… Veda Austin water work.

So, one day I am looking into Bosnian history. Bosnia was a prosper kingdom before Ottoman empire took over. It’s rulers, kings and queens were known for their fair ruling. One day I am scrolling Fb and the site that deals with Bosnian kingdom showed up. Among other many interesting things there, I found story of Djevena, medieval age girl who was sold in slavery. There was a picture, beautiful young girl looking into the mirror…and there it was, my little red rose. I got that same feeling again…there was something about this girl and it’s no coincidence she is holding the rose. It was time for me to slowly realise, the rose is telling me the story. Later on, I realised, the story was not only important to me, it’s rather about us all and this Earth. The story I was given is guidance and explanation of what is happening, where we are at now and where we are heading to.

Djevena (mind her name, divine, godly in English, in South Slavic languages ‘Divno’ means beautiful, marvels) was born into old religion Bosninan family. People belonging to that religion which in my opinion was more the way of living in close relationship with nature and themselves than religion as such, were called Bogumili. ‘Bogu mili’ in our language means ‘Dear to god’, ‘Milost’ also means grace.  If someone is ‘Mil or Mila’, it means he or she is ‘Gracious, Lovely, Innocent’. Deer for instance has quality of ‘Mila’. ‘Djeva’ also means ‘Virgin’. Some say, Bogumili have to do with South France Cathars, I will explain this later on in story. For continuum of the story is important to understand some play of the words in our Slavic language, as our language itself holds many pointers and explanations of old knowledge, which, as it turned out, is a bridge to what we call…New Earth. The Earth that once was and it will be again…

So, Djevena and her family, no surprises here,  were accused of being heretics, so she was in her young age, beautiful as rose, sold to slavery to rich Venetian guy. What she went trough I can only imagine.

From Bosansko kraljevstvo (Bosnian kingdom) Fb page:

Done in the municipal office in the presence of Mr. Matija Bisanti, the judge, and Mr. Miho Pellegrini, the bailiff.
