A burning rose is an unusual sight.
It tends to surprise people, as well as send them into a flurry of thoughts and concerns about the possible hidden meanings behind it.
Needless to say, there is quite some symbolism involved with this unusual phenomenon.
Whether you see it in real life, in a movie, in a tattoo, or in a photo, you’ll want to find out the spiritual meanings of a burning rose:
1) A sign of anger
If you see a burning rose, you may feel that you’ve been too angry lately.
A burning rose could be a sign for you to calm down and look at things from another perspective.
Anger can only lead to more problems in your life, so make sure to channel it properly.
If you see a burning rose while you’re in a relationship, it may signify that your relationship is too angry and unhealthy.
A burning rose may be a sign for you to reevaluate your relationship and make sure that you don’t let the anger consume you and your partner.
You see, anger is an often misunderstood emotion. While many people are afraid of expressing anger in any way shape or form, the healthy approach would be to deal with it in the most effective way possible.
Whenever you feel angry, you need to take a step back and analyze the situation.
Don’t let your feelings of anger get the best of you and don’t let them consume you. It’s no secret that anger can lead to some very negative consequences, especially if it’s not dealt with properly.
A burning rose may be a sign for you to make sure that your anger doesn’t get the best of you and that it doesn’t consume your life in any way shape or form.
Speaking of anger, it often accompanies a broken heart, which is our next point…
2) A sign of a broken heart
If you see a burning rose, it could be a sign for you to reevaluate the relationship you’re currently in.
A burning rose may signify that you’ve been through a lot of pain and heartache lately and that it’s time for you to move on.
If you see a burning rose while you’re in a relationship, it may indicate that your relationship is too painful and it’s time for you to move on from it.
A burning rose may be a sign for you to break up with your partner.
However, it can also show up for you if you are in the midst of a breakup already.
You see, the rose, especially a red rose, is a symbol of love. If it is burning, that can often signify that the love is burning and being destroyed.
During a breakup, this could be a sign that it’s finally time for you to move on.
If you don’t, the heartache may only get worse and the pain more intense. It’s time for you to let go of someone or something and put yourself first, as well as heal your broken heart instead of dwelling on it.
Re-evaluate your relationship and make sure that you’re not staying in it due to fear or other negative emotions.
It’s important to let go and move on if need be, so make sure that you do it sooner than later.
But don’t worry, a burning red rose can also signify the exact opposite!
3) Represents passion and love
If you see a burning rose, it could mean that you have a passionate person in your life.
It’s possible that a romantic partner or close friend feels very strongly about you, and they are full of passion and love for you.
If you see a burning rose while you’re in a relationship, it could indicate that you and your partner have a passionate relationship.
A burning rose may be a sign for you to celebrate your wonderful relationship and just appreciate your partner more.
Fire is often a sign of passion. If you see a burning rose, it could mean that someone is very passionate about you.
They want to show their love and desire for you, as well as their passion for life.
But maybe that person isn’t in your life, yet.
If you see a burning rose, you may feel that it’s time for you to share that same love and passion with someone else.
You need to find the right person who can fill your heart with the same intensity of feeling and emotion.
Now don’t let the next point scare you:
4) A sign of death
If you see a burning rose, it could mean that a close person in your life has recently died.
It’s likely that you’re still in a process of grieving, so a burning rose may be a sign for you to let go of your sadness and move on from the death of the person you loved and cherished so much.
However, when I found out the symbolism of this I was a bit taken aback – what did this truly mean?
I talked to someone at Psychic Source because quite frankly, I was scared. Was someone in my life going to die?
The gifted advisor I talked to was amazing. They reassured me that death can be in the metaphorical sense.
You see, even though a burning rose might indicate death, it could also mean the death of a phase in life you are going through or of the end of a relationship.
Even if you see a burning rose, it doesn’t mean that you will die.

Speaking of death, the burning rose can also represent loss, which I will talk about now:
5) Represents loss, change, and rebirth
If you see a burning rose, it could mean that something in your life has recently ended, and a new chapter is just beginning.
A burning rose could be a sign for you to let go of the old and embrace the new and exciting things that are coming your way.
If you see a burning rose while you’re in a relationship, it could indicate that something is about to change.
A burning rose may be a sign for you to let go of the old things in your relationship and embrace the new and exciting things that are coming your way.
This could mean a breakup, but it could also signify a new step, like getting engaged. It could be time for you and your partner to go separate ways and embrace new beginnings.
While the thought of loss and change can be incredibly scary, it is something that you can embrace wholeheartedly.
Sure, change is not always easy, but in the long run, change is always good.
You need to learn to appreciate it and look at the bright side of things.
If you see a burning red rose, it could mean that you will be reborn and live a happy and fruitful life from then on.
However, sometimes, the meaning of a burning rose is not quite so happy.
6) It can be a symbol of betrayal
I know, this is the last thing you want to hear, but sometimes, a burning rose can be a sign of betrayal.
If you see a burning rose, it could mean that someone close to you has betrayed you.
It’s possible that someone close to you has been shady about a certain matter and lied to your face.
Burning red roses could also signify emotional betrayal. However, more often than not, these burning roses don’t necessarily predict someone else betraying you in your life.
Sometimes, they are reminding you that you have been betraying yourself lately.
You may not even realize that you’re doing this, but the burning rose is perhaps a sign for you to consciously become aware of it and stop.
We can betray ourselves in a variety of ways, from not treating ourselves right, over staying with someone who isn’t good for us, to being dishonest to ourselves.
The burning red rose is a sign that it’s time for you to put an end to your self-sabotaging behaviors, as well as set yourself free from your own chains.
Freeing yourself from betrayal can mean finally standing up for yourself and your needs and wants.
7) You are losing your faith in love
Another meaning behind seeing a burning rose, is that it could be a sign that you are losing your faith in love.
If you see a burning rose, it could mean that you’re doubting the realness of love and its ability to last.
You may also be questioning whether or not love can still exist in the world of today. You may also be questioning whether or not your love is valid because of past experiences.
The thing is, the experience of love can feel tainted over time, as your heart gets broken, or as you’ve been let down.
In fact, the experience of love can feel like it’s a burning rose.
In the beginning, a burning rose is in full bloom and beautiful. However, as time passes on and people make choices that hurt them, this rose will burn and turn into ashes.
A burning rose can symbolize that even though love might have been real at one point in your life, it no longer exists.
And the good news?
Whether you believe in love is 100% up to you. You get to choose your reality and you get to say: Even though a lot of stuff has happened to me, I choose to have faith.
That is a sign of strength, which brings me to my next point!
8) It can signify strength
If you see a burning rose, it could mean that you’ve recently experienced a lot of pain and suffering, but you’ve managed to come out stronger from it all.
A burning rose could be a sign for you to appreciate your strength and let yourself heal from all the pain.

Pain is inevitable, but what you make of it will ultimately decide your fate.
If you choose to utilize your pain in order to become a better human being, you will be a lot stronger and better than before.
But a burning rose can also mean something else entirely:
9) A sign of purity and innocence
If you see a burning rose, it could mean that you’ve been pure and innocent.
A burning rose could be a sign for you to let go of your attempts to be pure and innocent, and just be yourself.
Purity and innocence are amazing traits, don’t get me wrong, but sometimes, they might be used in the wrong sense, as a means to redeem yourself of something.
The reality is, nobody on this planet is completely pure and innocent, and that’s okay.
Accepting this reality and truly letting go of your need to always be “perfect” will set you free.
10) A symbol of good luck
Last but not least, if you see a burning rose, it could mean that you’ve been hoping for good luck lately.
A burning rose could be a sign for you to let the luck in. If you see a burning rose while you’re in a relationship, it may mean that you and your partner have been hoping for good luck lately.

A burning rose can be your sign to let go of your doubts and let the good luck in fully!
