What is on my mind.
The Reappearance of the Christ, 2025.
The Conclave of the Hierarchy is approaching (2025).
This is the the time noted in the Wisdom teachings for the Reappearance of the Christ.
We don’t know when or where or how. We just have this date. And the knowledge that the Hierarchy will gather & have conversations about the how of this “event.”
Are we prepared?
Is humanity prepared?
How do we prepare?
It is important in this year of 2024 for the NGWS (& all of humanity) to enter into a deep commitment in terms of preparation as we approach 2025.
The endeavors of the NGWS strengthened, and activities realized & anchored both within & without – so that we can assist the Christ in the stupendous task of once again being the World Teacher, re entering the Earth plane to teach humanity how to maneuver the new era of Aquarius.
It is our (NGWS) task to realize & radiate the Plan & Work of the Hierarchy into the heart & minds of humanity.
With Love guiding us along the Path.
“We see the goal, we reach the goal & then we see the next goal ahead.”
“Lost are we in Light Supernal & on this Light we will turn our backs.”
Our Gate stands open for seekers to enter & to learn & to study in preparation. The NGWS stands together – disciples who are never alone… all together on the highest mountain top, realizing in each of us that we are part of a wider Everything that lasts beyond Time & Space.
We stand with humanity on the Burning Ground, in deep solitude together, working with the Higher Spheres.
This is our dedication for the this new year of 2024.
Everyone is invited. Everyone has tasks to perform.
Everyone is part of the preparation.
More to come on this subject.
The Astrology Today January 3 2024.
Sun in Capricorn – Rays 1, 3, 7.
We walk with the Magi Astrologer Kings under Sagittarius.
“Lost are we in Light Supernal.”
“We see the goal, reach the goal & see the next goal.”
Venus/Jupiter today – Sag & Taurus – Ray 4 binds them together in the most harmonious way.
Libra moon today – Libra comes in between the Ages. Helping us have harmony between the Ages, the old passing away, no longer useful. The new coming forth.
Tomorrow Mars (6) enters Capricorn (1, 3, 7).
We anchor our aspirations into form & matter.
Seeking land for our community & village.
In order to establish schools for humanity to learn, in preparation for the Reappearance. love….Risa

Under the Light of Capricorn Sun.
Walking with the Three Magi Astrologer Kings on this Tuesday, under the Light of Scorpio.
“Lost are we in Light Supernal.” The Light of Initiation. (Capricorn)
“Warrior are we…” The Light of Day – where three lights meet. (Scorpio)
Today is Tuesday, January 2, 2024 –
Mars (6) guarding & guiding us today.
The New Year – numbers & letters.
2024 is an 8 year.
Adding up the numbers 2024 = 8.
Number 8 is the letter “H” in the alphabet.
Scorpio is the 8th sign of the zodiac.
2024 is thus under the number 8 and under the light of Scorpio.
The sign of warriorship & Discipleship.
The Number 8.
I mentioned this yesterday. Today I have a question.
What words beginning with the letter “H” can we list, ponder upon & think of that are & would bring harmony to our lives in 2024.
Here are some –
Heart, health, horizon, happiness, horoscope, heavenly, etc.
What words can you think of that begin with the letter “H”.
Share your words with us.
Today Sun in Capricorn (1, 3, 7).
And Pluto (1) is at the last degree of Capricorn.
The moon is in Virgo (2/6) – we are orderly today. Putting our lives back into order and orderliness.
Capricorn & Virgo are two earth signs.
Earth signs are easily able to manifest their visions, anchoring their thoughts into practical actions & bring them out into the world in form & matter. Air signs wonder how do they do that?
We have a short v/c today – 1 hour & 11 minutes of a v/c.
From 3:36pm – 4::47pm (west coast time).
Then the moon shifts from VIrgo (2/6) to Libra (3).
Note the change in the Rays.
Earth Sky has lots of information today.
Sunspot, X-flare, coronal mass ejection (CME), geomagnetic storm (later today), halos, auroras, & the Earth closest to the Sun tonight (peri – close, helion – Sun).
Perihelion – when the Earth is closest to the Sun.
That is occurring tonight at 8pm (central standard time, time in the middle of the US).
In July, our Earth will be farthest from the Sun – the word for that is aphelion.
Earth’s orbit is not a circle around the Sun. It’s an ellipse.
Perihelion is from the Greek roots peri meaning near and helios meaning sun. At perihelion the Earth is 3 million miles closer to the Sun.

Bells of Christmas Morning.
A Poem by H. W. Longfellow –
Christmas Bells
I heard the bells on Christmas Day
Their old, familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet
The words repeat
Of peace on earth, good-will to All!
And in despair I bowed my head;
“There is no peace on earth,” I said;
“For hate is strong,
And mocks the song
Of peace on earth, good-will to All!”
Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
“God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The Wrong shall fail,
The Right prevail,
With peace on earth, good-will to All.”

This is the Holiest Night of the Year.
The 12 sided domed Temple on the hill stands luminous.
Its Gates stand wide open.
Waiting for the midnight Sun.
The interior of the Temple illuminates an altar with a cross & white roses.
Disciples and Servers of the world arrive at the Temple.
Stand under a five pointed star of light.
The price of entrance is a crown of thorns.
At midnight bells will ring from the depths of space.
It is the night of a starry interior light.
Streams of spiritual force from the heavens begin to play through the earth. These will continue through to the Twelfth Night.
From Hamlet’s Shakespeare we read:
“…That season comes
Wherein our Savior’s birth is celebrated.
The bird of dawn singeth all night long.
Nothing stirs.
The nights are holy, darkness has no power to charm
So hallow’ed, so holy, so gracious is the time.”
Mary & Joseph approached Bethlehem (house of God’s bread). The city was filled with visitors. It was a time of taxation for the people. Inn after inn was filled. Finally, with compassion and care, one innkeeper, seeing Mary’s suffering, took Mary & Joseph to a stable with animals nearby. There was also a manger filled with hay. No room in the inn, & being birthed in a stable in a manger – the holy child was born for the common people.
A star’s light grows bright in the sky.
The Astrologer Magi Kings are alerted.
They begin their journey west at midnight.
Angels quietly begin to sing.
Nature is still, poised, watching.
Something is stirring in the manger.
Everything is still and quiet.
It is a holy night. The holiest night of the year.
Hosts of Angels begin to surround the field around the stable.
The sacred vigil has begun.
We hear the keynote of the earth sung by the angels…
“Glory to God in the highest.

Christmas Eve day.
Road to Bethlehem.
Sunday, December 24, 2023.
Gemini moon today. Mercury & Mars in Sagittarius.
Sun at the beginning degrees of Capricorn.
Pluto at the end degrees.
Mercury remains retrograde till January 1st, 2024.
Sun sextile Saturn tonight – a friendly sort of night tonight.
Our Advent altar has four lights lit today.
Tonight at midnight, we light the middle round white candle.
Candle of Love – for the birth of the Holy Child (the Soul of humanity).
The Birth of the Holy Child.
This is a metaphor & a Teaching about the 1st Initiation – Initiations mean one enters into a higher wider spiritual state of understanding & experience. Or successive stages of Liberation.
The 1st Initiation is called the Birth Initiation.
The Initiation of Birth in Bethlehem (the nourishment from the House of Bread).
Freedom of Control of Physical Body & its Desires & Appetites. That sentence explains the 1st Initiation.
The 1st Initiation is called “fixation, thus stimlation, on the physical plane” which means the focus is on the stimulation of the sacral (chakra. This chakra must be lifted up to the heart. Thus the stimulation. It is the beinning of the Initiations. It has to do with relationships of all types. Relationships stimulate the work needed on the sacral chakra. The present war in the MidEast has to do with the sacral center of the Earth must lift itself up to the heart center of the Earth. Thus the terrible war, with the FDarkness obstructing the “lifting up.”
All of humanity goes thru this Initiation. It is a difficult initation. From darkness to the beginning of the recogntion of Light (the Soul). Life times pass before one enters into the next Initiation, the 2nd Initiation, that of Baptism (both of water & of fire).
The doors of Initiation are electrical. And electricity is yet a mystery for humanity. Humans are electrical units of power & light.
There is to be another “appearance” of the World Teacher (who appeared in the body of Master Jesus at age 30 at the River Jordan with John the Baptist. This next appearance is soon (2025). However the the birth hour is unknown & the “labour” is long, as it depends upon humanity’s preparedness for the World Teacher (Christ of the Piscean Age) to return. The ground is being prepared now for this time of which no one knows the hour or in what form.
The 1st Initiation works with Ray 7 – anchoring a new reality within the individual. This brings about the following at the 1st Initiation –
1. recognition of the relation between the Soul & the mind. Thus a new relationship is formed – a recognition of this relationship, first that the Soul exists & that it is resting (birthed) on the mental plane – this is “A man (thinker) must be “born again” (birth Initiation) in order to enter the Kingdom of God.” Also, this is the “birth of the Holy Child in the heart.” One then begins to recognize those in need, those who need to be served. One can only see this when the Soul has become apparent – birth of the holy child in the heart – (metaphor for the Holy Child’s birth at Christmas time).
2. produces a measure of order in the emotional plane (thus aiding in the 2 Initiation).
3. enables one to establish certain service relationships, demonstrate the first state of a truly creative life (beyond the creativity of generation) & lean the practice of elementary white magic (workings of the Soul).
In this Initiation, a new light begins to burn in the heart of the aspirant. This radiance emanates from the Soul, in the realm of the mind. The Hierarchy scans the world for this “new light” to appear in the hearts & minds of humanity. When they discover the light within an individual, they take the aspirant to the Gate of Intiation on inner planes. And greet the newcomer with chants from the hosts of angelic ministers. There is great rejoicing. One has stepped upon the 1st Path of Light. From now on there is close & tender guidance from Spiritual Beings. Life becomes richer, deeper, more meaningful.
And so to the story.
Mary & Joseph are walking now towards Bethlehem. Mary is about to give birth. She is on a donkey, led by Joseph. They will come to the town of Bethlehem & there will be no room at the inns. They will be shown to a stable. The animal & plant & mineral kingdom all around. A bright & unusual star in the sky. Shepherds are nearby tending sheep. (Every single thing in the story is purposeful, significant & a metaphor – for humanity’s life each day & for each stage of progressive Initiations, fall backs, & then stepping back on the Paths of Initiation again & again).

A Study of Capricorn – the Initiate on the Mountaintop.
Rivers & streams of Light sweep into the mind of the Initiate, standing on the mountain top of Capricorn.
We hear these words on the mountaintop.
We recite these words together as Disciple Initiates –
“Lost are we in Light Supernal….”
(yet later as Aquarius begins),
“yet on this Light (having absorbed it thru our Ajna Centers)
we will turn our backs.”
(carrying this Light down to the valleys of Earth & distributing
it via service to a suffering humanity.)
Capricorn – “the secret hidden glory.”
The symbol of Capricorn is a signature.
It’s the hidden signature of God.
As Capricorn is the signature of God….
“Capricorn guards the secret of the Soul and this it reveals to the initiate at the time of the third initiation.
This is called the “secret of the hidden glory.”
When the Teacher (Saturn, Ray 3) begins the Wisdom Teachings the focus is on the philosophy and symbolism of the signs. In order to familiarize beginning students with the general scheme and the universal broad interlocking of the cosmic heavenly energies (reflected directly on Earth (Ray 3).
Capricorn receives & distributes Rays 1, 3, & 7.
These are the knowledge Rays – they are active in the student on the Path of Discipleship. We are to ponder on this statement, study the sign, the planets involved & the Rays.
Note: the 6th & 4th Rays are dominant upon the Path of Evolution and the 1st & 7th upon the Path of Initiation. The second ray of Love/Wisdom (it is Love that underlies all events) controls and dominates all the other rays. What are the Ray names referred to here? Who will answer?
River & streams of Light are given to the initiate (unicorn) from the mountain tops of Capricorn, once that summit has been reached. This is at the Transfiguration Initiation as this vision appears before the eyes of the astounded disciple.
Astrological Significances of the stories in the Bible
The great experiences upon the various mountain tops as related in the Bible have all to do with Capricorn.
Moses, the Lawgiver on Mount Sinai, is Saturn in Capricorn offering the Ten Commandments (Aries Laws) & explaining the law of karma to the people. A clue to the significance of the Jewish people as a karmic clearing house can be found here. This takes much pondering to understand. We are to onder on those words “a karmic clearing house.”
The Mount of Transfiguration (Christ on the mountaintop reveling His true essence to his three disciples (the Soul to the personality) in the New Testament is Venus in Capricorn when love and mind and will meet in the person of the Christ (the Soul), and “He was transfigured” before all men. (The Soul’s light, when directing the personality “transfigures” the pesonality).
At the same time, He received the vision (rivers of light) of the Father and of what His task was… as He “went up to Jerusalem,” the place of death and likewise the city of peace. This Jerusalem is Pisces (sign of saving & saviorship).
Christ put His disciples in touch with the “man (Aquarius) bearing a pitcher of water,” Aquarius (waters of life for thirsty humanity), and in the upper room where they gathered, introduced them to union and unity under the symbolism of the communion feast. For that feast (unity through Love & Wisdom) humanity is today preparing.
The astrological significance of the New Testament is as yet little understood. Christ was born in Capricorn, fulfilled the law under Saturn, initiated the era of intelligent brotherhood under Venus and is the perfect example of the Capricorn initiate who becomes the world Server in Aquarius, and the world Saviour in Pisces, thus completing the round of the zodiac and able to say triumphantly in Pisces “It is finished.”
Capricorn rules the knees and this is symbolically true, for only when the Capricorn subject learns to kneel in all humility and with his knees upon the rocky mountain top to offer his heart and life to the soul and to human service, can he be permitted to pass through the door of Initiation and be entrusted with the secrets of life. Only on our knees can we go through that door.”
India is ruled by Capricorn and India knows this truth. Though India has permitted the physical act to usurp the place of a spiritual attitude, yet the symbolic meaning is eternally true. When the man born in Capricorn can kneel in spirit and in truth, he is then ready for the initiatory process upon the mountain top. (Esoteric Astrology, pp 165-8)
Today is Saturday, Saturn’s day today.
We ask what are our tasks today?
December 23, 2023 –
Sun in Capricorn – Moon in Taurus (seeking time to be artistic & bring forth beauty).
Mercury (4) entered Sagittarius (4, 5, 6) last night.
What do we talk about when Mercury is in Sagittarius?
Who knows? Who can tell us?
Mars (6) is in Sagittarius, too!
What is Mars in Sagittarius?
Venus (5) is in Scorpio (4). What does that mean?
The students eventually must become the teachers, to.
Students are to surpass the teacher.
After the Teacher has taught all that they Teacher knows.
There is a hidden message here.
Saturday is Ray 3 day.
Saturn is Ray 3 – Divine Intelligence.
Leading to Right Choice & Right Action.
Saturn is the planetary ruler of Capricorn (primarily).
It is the earlier ruler of Aquarius before Uranus was sighted.
Saturn teaches us through limitation, discipline & laws – the Rule of Law – Cosmic laws & planetary laws.
There are many of which the Disciple studies.
We are working under the Law of Right Human Relations (till February 21). RHR is created out of our intentions for Goodwill.
Tomorrow night is Christmas Eve.
We light our white candle in the middle of the Advent wreath.
The candle of the Holy Child.
Monday is Christmas.
Tuesday is the last full moon of 2023, solar festival of Capricorn.
And Chiron stations direct.
The Kingdom is busy….love, Risa

“Lost are in in Light Supernal.”
In the sky – Ursid meteor showers.
The radiant emanating from the Big Dipper.
Sirius B can be seen next to the bright star Sirius!
This is most unusual!
Night Light News is named after Sirius B.
Two bright lights in the heavnes – Jupiter brings in the night, Venus brings in the morning.
The heavens & the Earth – like Father & Mother.
They are our Teachers. Earth is our Temple School.
About Sirius
Sirius is white to blue-white in color, sometimes called a rainbow star, as it often flickers with many colors. The flickering colors are easy to notice when Sirius is low in the sky – Orion’s belt points to Sirius, below left.
The brightness, twinkling and color changes os Sirius sometime prompt people to report Sirius as a UFO! These changes are what happens when such a bright star as Sirius shines through the blanket of Earth’s atmosphere. The varying density and temperature of Earth’s air affect starlight, especially when we’re seeing the star low in the sky.
The shimmering and color changes happen for other stars, too, but these effects are more noticeable for Sirius because Sirius is so bright. (from SkyEArth news).
Sirius is where the Archangel Christ came from. Sirius is Ray 2 where Love originates. It is the home of the Blue Lodge & the Hierarchy. A line of Light from Earth to Venus to Jupiter to the Sun to the Sun of Sirius. After our schooling is completed on Earth, we have choices as to where we might want to go next. One of the choices is Sirius. love, Risa

Winter Solstice – the Sun Turns Northward.
Light Over Darkness & a Litany of Promises.
Our solstice day today.
Time for rest, reflection, pause & quiet.
The solstice guides us to Christmas day, a holy birth (of a new light) & into the new year.
Today, Thursday, December 21, 2023.
The shortest day of light, the longest night of darkness…(northern hemisphere).
Tonight at 7:27pm (west coast time),the Sun enters Capricorn & it’s winter solstice!
The Astrology
It’s a complex day today in the heavens as we move towards the Solstice time.
Venus/Uranus – Mars/uranus – Mercury/Saturn.
Moon in Aries, then a 3 minutes v/c. Then Moon in Taurus (6:50pm, west coast time).
Sag Sun, then Capricorn Sun.
We shift from Rays 4, 5, 6 to Rays 1, 3, 7.
Note from the even love Rays to the knowledge Rays.
The Body Electric
As the Sun is at the southern most position, Tropic of Capricorn, the Sun seed in our bodies is at the solar plexus (a “manger” in our body temple). As the Sun begins its movement northward, after three days of stillness, the Sun seed within our bodies also move upward – to reach the heart at spring equinox (equator on earth & in our bodies). At summer the Sun seed reaches the pineal gland, connecting with the pituitary gland, in the 3rd ventrical (another manger in our bodies, the holy place of spiritual conception – a spark of light can be seen when the two meet – pineal & pituitary – this is the divine conception & marriage bed for the Holy Child – the Soul).
As the Sun circuits thru its many stages – upward path, downward path & upward again each year, our bodies are electrified with a new life, new radiance & we are given the power of eternal youth (spiritual metaphor). For those who walk the Path of Light are filled with a rare & radiant light. This is the light that moves over land & sea.
Light Over Darkness
Winter Solstice – the season in which the Sun — the light
and life of the world — enters upon rebirth, and returns to conquer darkness and death.
Returning each year as a holy child – the Light Bringer.
Winter Solstice – the secret and sacred life of the heavens and the earth. All Nature begins life anew at Winter Solstice.
Litany
I. I devote the spirit that is being born within me to the service of the spirit of love & to the world.
II. In this coming year I will dwell in the sanctuary of love; I will not offend against the law of love.
III. I will remember that I have not to ask for love but to offer love; that I give of my very self to the world.
IV. I forgive all. In return, I ask the spirit to be born in me this month so that I am beloved of the brotherhood of souls, and thus recognised as a Soul of Love. Risa
