Lots to read & integrate today, It’s Mercury’s day.
Mercury/Hermes – the information sharer!

And so….
Back to the works of the day.
And at the end of our days, we see that our day was good!

Today, Wednesday, is Mercury’s (4) day.
Hermes & Woden** (or Odin) the gods of Wednesday.

Ray 4
Mercury is Ray 4, harmony at the heart of conflict & chaos.
What if, when we enter into conflict & chaos with another, we each remind ourselves & the other that we are actually seeking
harmony & the conflict & chaos is just a disrupter of the previous way of being, like a rainstorm. And that we are on a journey together towards harmony!

How would that affect the conflict? How would that affect the relationship? How would that affect the outcome?
The above is the esoteric way of handling conflict & observing chaos. The foundation of the esoteric is the science & art of astrology which is really observation of the heavens.

Everything in the heaves is reflected here on earth.
The heavens contain the handwriting of God.
In symbolic form – symbols are what the intuitive mind understands.

Pattern in the Heavens (Astrology).
A “pattern of symbols depicting orderly things.”
The stars, constellations & planets hold the key to humanity’s understanding of life on earth. The Creator prepared the heavens in a pattern of stars as His Voice, His Teachings, His Plan & His Promise. The “patterns in the heavens” is the revealed knowledge of God HImself.”
Without this knowledge, humanity is “blinded.”
And the bible refers to the astrology, to heavens (astrology) as the “patterns in the heavens.”
We are told by the Tibetan that we are to study & know the “patterns in the heavens.” When Moses built the tabernacle on Mt. Sinai, he looked to the heavens & seeing the pattern of stars in the heavens built the tabernacle on the “Pattern of stars in the heavens.”

The Astrology Today, Wednesday, July 24, 2024.
Leo Sun Mercury & Venus. All three in Leo, the 5th sign, the 5th Gate, the 5th Labour of Hercules.
Pisces Moon today – one of the “sensitive” signs.

Sensitivity (right understanding)
This sensitivity does not mean “thin skinned, self centered or defensive, always finding fault with self, others or events.
It does not mean personality needs or demands, reactions, interpretations of criticisms.
These are only noisy reactions of a noisy reactive personality.

On the contrary.

This sensitivity is a Spiritual Awareness.
What are we sensitive to?
It is a sensitivity the Teachers look for in a seeker, aspirant & disciple.
It is spiritual awareness, expanding our consciousness into ever widening ranges of contact (real contact releases love).
It is….
To be & feel alive, to feel life coursing thru our being.
It is a sensitivity that observes all three levels of the personality – physical, emotional & lower mental – all simultaneously.

It is sensitivity & alertness to Soul contact.
And to hear the “Teacher’s voice” when the Teacher speaks offering new ideas. And it is the delicacy of intuitional responsiveness.
It is a Spiritual Sensitivity.

Humanity IS already sensitive.
However, we are not often aware of it.
Life, on inner & outer levels, is SO noisy.
One needs inner quiet & innter awareness to observe one’s sensitivity.
This sensitivity is not something one can be trained to have.
It is something one can only observe in oneself.
Observation of sensitivity within the self, actually cultivates further sensitivity.
When the personality is “dimmed” so the Soul light can pour thru the personality,

Sensitivity is a strength, it offers us information.
Spiritual sensitivity protects & guides us.
Our Teachers on the “other side” seek to impress us with information that guides & directs us. Only when we are sensitive to “contact” (which releases love – which we cultivate under Leo), can we understand those “Impressions.”

One of the Signs of Sensitivity
Leo is one of the signs of sensitivity (along w/ Cancer & Pisces).
Tomorrow – I will post the sensitivities we experience in Leo.
More tomorrow.

Naming of the Days.
The Romans named weekdays after the “wandering stars” that moved through the sky and were thus “alive,” becoming candidates for worship as gods. At the time, seven such gods were known, which by coincidence matched the Biblical seven days of creation.
Wednesday, Mercury’s day. Numerologists also favored the choice, pointing out that knowledge enters the head through seven openings. All seemed to be coming together with the number seven, as artists had seven primary colors and scientists seven metals.

Wednesday is names for the Greek god Hermes, & the Roman god, Mercury. The word Wednesday comes from the Old English translation of the Latin Mercurii.

Woden or Odin (Norse god) is compared to the Roman god Mercury, so in the Nordic tradition Odin ( gave his name to Wednesday.) Odin is the most prominent god in traditional Norse mythology. He is particularly associated with war luck, royal power, rune power and wisdom.

These were gods of wisdom. Wednesday relates to the color green, the lungs in the body, and the metal mercury (hydragyrum), with the chemical symbol Hg.

So much to learn & to know about our world.
More tomorrow. love, Risa

Speaking Out Loud & Clear.
Creative Self Identity & the Ten Seed Groups.
Today, Tuesday, Mars day, Ray 6 day.
Mars is in Gemini – speaking out loud & clear.
With love.
Today, July 23, 2024 – Leo Sun, Pisces Moon.
I am Pisces w/ North Node & midheaven & Pluto in Leo.
Leo is the creative self – identity as a creative.

And so today – lots of writing.
A deep study of self-identity, creative self-identity.
Art too.
Under the sign of Leo – the courageous creative lion of the zodiac.
Many different levels of writing today.

First of all….Always be curious!
About everyone & everything.
And…Watch the news w/ curiosity.

Why?
All of life a stage…everyone playing their part. Be excited each day to watch, listen to the news. Our nation is in the infancy of a new world.
It is developing it new creative self.
The people are too.
Be curious about all of this.

Today…
Under Leo Sun – what is our creative identity?
Each of our creative identities? Leo asks each of us.
So…
Turning towards ourselves, recognizing our creative acts.

I will share mine today.
Asking – What is my creative identity – as an example.

Under Leo we evoke the sacred & the celebratory.
The heart & the marketplace. And the groundwork may not show at first, not till one day. We develop strength & courage when we identify ourselves & our creativity.

Excited By the News. Why?
Our country is in the middle of something so big, so large!
So cosmic!
An awakening is occurring. The news, whatever it is, is exciting!
Aren’t you all excited about the news each day.
See what is occurring in our country, our world!
All of life’s a stage – everyone playing their part!

Central casting in plain sight.

The central figure.
The true prez’s North Node is in Leo.

New Self Identity.
What is the identity of the United States?
A new self-identity emerging – a creative self-identity.
Beginning new seeds of the new creative self-identity.
Flying our American flag in plain sight.
A red wave is happening. Can you see it?
Moses parting the Red Sea to the new lands.

Praise is Evolutionary
During Leo, we are to praise & recognize ourselves & each other.
We recognize & praise others for their endeavors, gifts, talents and abilities.
Then they grow in confidence and in wonder, in love & wisdom.
Leo needs recognition from the world. It helps them evolve.

Having to do with Everything.
Astrology & the Wisdom Teachings have to do with all endeavors of humanity. As disciplines they are not reserved for only a spiritual perspective.
They are disciplines used for observation and for teaching.
There is a misunderstanding that teachers need to not take a stance on issues of the day.
That misunderstanding is not useful.
The NGWS are not to be passive, standing aside and not making choices.
Astrology & the Wisdom Teachings are part of all the endeavors of humanity.
How Disciples participate in the world is through the Ten Seed Groups.

Seed Groups – every seed demonstrates its life by putting out outward evidences of its internal life and activity. Often what the seed groups know & teach shatters mass thinking. Mass thinking is herd thinking & in the times we are in, this becomes entrained thinking. This is not freedom of thought but emotional captivity and a mind that is an echo chamber. There needs to be new thinking, new thought brought into play. This is done via speaking the Truth of the matter. Shaking up the accepted thought forms & presenting something new.

The Truth is potent & creative. Truth inspired and frees one. Truth doesn’t follow the herd. Truth establishes itself as a virtue in the heart. This is the function of the Seed Groups – a part of educating humanity thru the conflicts & chaos of the times.

And so…
Ten Seed Groups
There are 10 Seed Groups the New Group of World Servers participates in.
One of the seed groups is Politics. This is the 5th Group.
Notice #5 is the number of Venus, which signifies Truth, Concrete & real Science & Knowledge.
The fifth group concerns itself with political factors in every nation. They work (observe, think, write about) in the world of human government. They observe & work with the problems of government, civilization and with the relationships existing between nations.
The bringing about of international understanding (thru truth) is their major objective.

And so….
People write me that I should not be writing about the political scene. They write in anger.
Question. Why would I not write about the political situation?
We do not live in a vacuum as spiritual teachers.
The people who write me with anger & dismay are the people who disagree with what I am writing. They attempt to intimidate, dismiss & shame. This is hurtful.
Instead of a discussion, they write remark that I have disappointed them!
That I should know better, since I read the Wisdom Teachings!
These are misguided thoughts, beliefs & remarks.
And it displays their expectations that I will think as they do & that I must remain within a limited perspective.

Self As an Example
We are under Leo Sun now. Our identity as creative being.
It is good for each of us to turn towards ourselves & being to identify our talents, abilities, creative gifts.
I will do so here as an example.

My Identity (what is your’s?)
I am first of all a writer & a journalist.
I am also a teacher, educator & an astrologer.
I write about the worlds both inner & the world that is outer.
They are really One –

Purpose of my Writing
My writing as a journalist (what I am seeing in the world) & as a teacher has the purpose to bring the sacred & secular together.
Acknowledging that everything is sacred. Even the marketplace & the government & that our Republic is a country of & for & by the people. I am one of those “people” who happens to write about what I see.

Most are asleep & have lost that awareness, lost connection with truth, with the whole, with ultimately, with the cosmos. Many live with hard hats, helmets on. Nothing pierces their mind.

Writing about & responding to what is happening around ourselves, our country & world is one of the means wherein amidst adversity I hope readers can reestablish their connection with the whole. Reading the truths for some can be painful.

I am always alert to context – both inner & outer.
Everything I write is both a hint to go deeper & a challenge to change.
It is my creation (Leo).

We are in the time of Leo, sign of our creativity.
Creativity builds hope.
We build hope by creating, bringing forth our gifts & offering them to the world. Creativity also builds strength & courage.

Corita has a serigraph about this – Speaking out loud & clear.
She quoted Camus in her painting –

“What the world expects of Christians is that Christians (those of all true faiths) should speak out and that they should voice (speak) their (truth) condemnation in such a way that never a doubt, never the slightest doubt, could rise in the simplest man.”

Submission
In the past years the administration (gov controlled by dark forces) have forced journalists into submission by firing them (intimidation & cancel culture). I am one of those fired early on, which changed my life & not for the better.
I will no longer be silenced by false authority, by herd mentality & will speak out when I see the dark forces at play (& being forced upon us) which is in essence, evil.

True Teacher
A true authentic writer journalist teacher pushes beyond the rules, makes every thing in daily life relevant, doesn’t separate the inner life from the outer, speaks the truth at all times.

A true writer teacher does not sedate the reader.
A true teacher celebrates all endeavors of humanity of which nothing is mundane.
Real teachers help create dialogue, create controversy, presents things inside out & upside down. As I wrote, shakes things up. That is a really good teacher.

And what else does a teacher do?
They offer in the truth & wonder & hopefully create uncertainty in old beliefs – they awaken possibilities & open the listener/reader to new perspectives. Telling the Truth diminished the fear of the unknown – sets us straight when chaos arises.

Authentic writing is an art form – Real & true Art nurtures the imagination and creates a conduit for acknowledging life as sacred in new ways.

Praising Each Other
The voice of people when they are angry & have expectations is a destructive & damaging voice.
Instead, during Leo, we are to praise & recognize each other’s endeavors.
Recognize & praise others for their gifts and talents and abilities. Then they grow in confidence, in love & wisdom.
Leo needs recognition from the world. It helps them evolve.

Remember, the entrained have a magic helmet on. The truth can’t penetrate that helmet.
So we don’t try anymore. We let the helmeted ones be.

Clearly seeing duality in our country.
Hulk Hogan (at the RNC) (lots of Leo in his chart – Sun Mars Asc Pluto in Leo)
Very dramatic man – he said “enough is enough.”
He said he was hidden for so long –
He said he was a coward as to what he believed in.
He said he is hidden no longer.
He told the world what he believed in.

We know this as disciples…
The true prez brings the darkness to light.

Observing Instability, Understanding it.
Remaining poised.
“Let instability do its work in the world.”
Disciples observe this instability & yet at all time remain poised
As the chaos emerges. On the other side is harmony.
We stand with the Forces of Light.
Remaining poised calls in the mental plane.
And a calm emotional field.
Remaining poised, we bring those around us into a mental focus as well. We become teachers in the moment.

There is no consciousness without pain.
We live in one world and each act we perform affects the whole.
To believe in God is to know that all the rules will be fair and that there will be wonderful surprises.
We are asked to surprise God.
And that the foundation, the ground work doesn’t show till one day.
And love & courage are hard work.
And Yes we can do & be all these things.
Yes we are & we can. love, Risa
