Reading today – an Initiation – initiating something new.
Initiation – Baptism of Water & of Fire.
What humanity is going through now – an Initiation of Purification/Baptism.
This is a water year – from Chinese New year of the Water Rabbit.
The “storm is upon us.”
Draining the swamp – all these has much to do with the 2nd Initiation of Baptism/Purification.

Agitating the “waters” (emotions) of humanity, the Dark Lodge uses this turbulence to keep their deception going.
The opposites need to be pointed out for humanity to see the two paths, then the ability to choose.

The Kali Yuga time – the light stands starkly amidst the dark – & humanity is to choose. Humanity must see contrast, high contrast is faster, in order to choose.
Humanity must discern, with pure mind, the false light from the true light.

We need to understand the Iniitations. Especially the 2nd Initiation which has to do with emotions, astral plane, illusions, the captivity of humanity. Disciples are being called, will be called to assist humanity once they come out of the illusions & untruths.

This Second Initiation (Baptism, purification) – as now undergone – is to some extent one of the most difficult. It involves purification, but it is purification by fire, symbolically understood. The occult “application of fire to water” produces certain most serious and devastating results. The water, under the action of fire, “is resolved into steam and the initiate is immersed in the fogs and miasmas, the glamours and the mists” thus caused. Out of this fog and out of the glamours, the initiate must emerge; out of the present fog of human affairs humanity will also emerge eventually.

The success of the individual initiate is the guarantee of the destiny of all life waves (humanity). The complications, produced by water in conjunction with fire in these Aryan days, are far greater than those produced entirely by water in Atlantean times; this age is kama-manasic (KĀMA, meaning desire, passion, emotion, pleasure, and Manas, the thinking part of the human). and not simply kamic or strictly astral.

Remember therefore as you read these words that I am speaking symbolically.

The fire of mind today has to be reckoned with in conjunction with the water of desire, and it is owing to this that much of humanity’s problem develops. It is because of this that the second initiation has become one of the most difficult which the modern disciple has to take.

Under the influence of the Piscean cycle (Age) which is now in process of termination (being withdrawn, ending os an Age), the sixth Ray of Idealism or Devotion (blind often, submission) was predominantly active.

Ray 6 is the ray of one-pointed determination and – from one angle – it is the ray of blind procedure (acceptance). When one is blind, the individual, the group or humanity, sees only one aspect of reality at any one time, and (because of man’s present point in the evolutionary process) usually the least desirable aspect.
All other realities, including the truth, is sealed to them; they vision only one picture; their horizon is limited to only one point of the compass (speaking esoterically).

Material World focus – To the mass of humanity, the aspect of reality which was visioned and for which men lived and died was the material world, material comfort, material possessions and material enterprises; to this the labor movement today and the tendencies already apparent in the United Nations bear incontrovertible testimony.

To a much smaller group of human beings the world of the intelligence appears paramount, and the concrete mind is the desired ruler or controlling factor. All, therefore, remains within the area of material control and interest. (to be continued)

Water Rabbit 2023
The rabbit is lifting the water-pot up to & joining the ranks of those who are the Water –bearers (Aquarius), and then then the flowing of the stream of life will fill his water-pot and drain the rancid pool and cleanse its source and thus reveal the hidden way which leads unto the innermost light. (Draining the Swamp)

Elements
Elements have to do with the days of creation. They are the foundation of creation. Created thru “the Word”.
The elements flow thru the Four Recording Angels (electro magnetic energy).
The Angels are part of the Fixed Cross (Soul’s Cross).
The waters flow thru Scorpio – the emotional plane – water (baptism, cleansing, purification). This is the 2nd Initiation – about Freedom, where humanity is at this time.
Emotional plane ruled by Scorpio – ruled by Mars – the Tests of humanity, blood. The task of the NGWS is to bring forth the Life Force within the blood. This life force is the Waters Above the Firmament (Waters of Life) – this is the Spiritual Will which flows into our little wills & we have Aspiration to Serve humanity.
The flow of the electromagnetic element becomes water & the earth is precipitated water.

The three water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) have to do with blood – there is a mystery around blood. The blood is what was/is attacked by C-v-d – it’s not a virus but a poisoning.

In Aquarius, the “swamp” (Augean Stables, the land) has to be drained. South Node in Scorpio – the emotional plane purified. North Node in Taurus – the past being brought into the Light.
The darkness around the Vx, how money is controlled – these are controlled by water, the Admirality Law.

The water of the water rabbit, cleansing & purifying – going down the rabbit hole – learning the truth – so humanity can begin to realize its divinity –

The rabbit is lifting the water-pot up to & joining the ranks of those who are the Water –bearers (Aquarius), and then then the flowing of the stream of life will fill his water-pot and drain the rancid pool and cleanse its source and thus reveal the hidden way which leads unto the innermost light.

Esoteric Astrology (page 82)
We will follow man from sign to sign as he – in travail and pain – forges the equipment and develops painfully the mechanism which will enable him to arrive at a major moment of crisis in his cyclic life wherein he will begin to free himself from the path of the great illusion along which he has traveled for aeons from Aries to Taurus, via Pisces and – reversing himself – will begin to travel the path of light from Aries to Pisces, via Taurus. This changing experience is expressed for us most beautifully in the sixth section of the Old Commentary:

“The Cross of many changes (the Mutable Cross. A.A.B.) continues with its whirling, carrying [82] crucified thereon the form of a man in whom is found the seed of all illusion.
But, from the Cross whereon he has been slain – e’en though he knew it not – the man climbs down and feels his way (with pain and many tears) on to another Cross – a Cross of blinding light, of fiery pain, of bitter woe, and yet the Cross of liberation. It is a stationary Cross, fixed in the Heavens, and guarded by the Angel.

Behind the Cross, another Cross appears, but that he may not reach (the Angel guards the way!) until the Bull has rent and torn the man, and then – the light shines forth; until the Serpent dread has wrestled with the man and brought him to his knees, and then – the lifting up into the light; until the Lion has been tamed, the secret of the Sphinx revealed, and then – the revelation of the inner light; until the man has lifted up his water-pot and joined the ranks of those who are the Water-bearers, and then the flowing of the stream of life will fill his water-pot and drain the rancid pool and cleanse its source and thus reveal the bidden way which leads unto the innermost light, hid by the final Cross. Then, from the Cross of man, the initiate finds his way, passes the Angel and leaves behind the inner torn veil, mounts the major Cross and passes into day, the final day. The wheel for him stands still. The sun and stars, for him, fade out. A great light is seen and… “
