Ray 7 is one of the Rays of Aquarius.

Every day now, this week….
We are preparing for Saturday’s Aries Festival at the time of the Full moon – the time is 5:22pm (PT). The degree of the Aries Festival is 23 degrees Aries.
Right after the full moon festival, Venus turns stational direct at 24 degrees Pisces.

It’s quite a day & evening this coming Saturday.
Passover at the sighting of the first star – the journey from Taurus to Aries, from Egypt to the desert to Canaan – for 40 years!
Moses leading them.

And then…Palm Sunday on Sunday, the day after & during Passover.

All of these festivals/astrology, etc. – coming together –
The astronomical, astrological, the Jewish festival, the Catholic festival, the Esoteric festival – alerting us that the Aquarian magical world religions is forming quick quickly.

Love is the theme of the Aries Festival.
The love of God for His people. The love of Hierarchy for humanity. Love is the theme of the Aries Festival.
Love is the theme of the Christian religion (the Catholic being the purest level of the Christian religion).
This Love is still in need of being expressed.
Love from Sirius was anchored by the Christ when He was here on Earth at the beginning of the Age of Pisces.
It is only the Christ who has been able to express the fullness of Love on Earth. Humanity is still learning.
The Aries Festival is a Festival of Love anchored by Ray 7.
The WILL to LOVE – (Ray 1) – anchored (by Ray 7) into the hearts & minds of humanity & carried into the world also by the Forces of Restoration – restoring humanity’s morals, ethics, freedom & psychological health. Restoring humanity’s livingness.

During Each of the Spring Festivals specific forces flow into the Earth – during the Aries festival & all thru the month of Aries, the Forces of Restoration stream in – the spiritual and energetic forces that work towards the renewal and upliftment of humanity and the planet, aligning with the “Plan of Love and Light” and also the reappearance of the Christ (the Aquarian World Teacher).

This “Plan” humanity is meant to participate in and manifest on Earth. The new & full moon times assist humanity in this endeavor, as a specific light (unavailable at other times) appears at the new & full moon times, especially at the Three Spring Festivals. This light, along with the Spiritual Hierarchy, a group of enlightened beings (inner spiritual government) work together to guide humanity’s evolution and the externalization of the Kingdom of God.
All week, preparing for the Aries festival, we recite the “The Great Invocation,” with greater intention & dedication – the Great Invocation is a mantra or prayer of direction for humanity, and its use invoked the Forces of Restoration. We thus align ourselves with the divine plan & the these forces along with the Will to Love.

The Aries Festival works with the Shamballa force, associated with the mental plane and the purification, destruction, & creation. Focus on Shamballa (Ray 1) and on Love (Ray 2) organizes our energies to help anchor & manifest the divine plan.

We also call forth the Forces of Liberation to help humanity align with their soul’s purpose and experience greater spiritual life.

The Soul Mantram – a prayer of identification.
I am the Soul, I am Light Divine, I am Love, I am Will & I am Perfect in my Design.

Let the Forces of Light bring illumination to mankind.
Let the Spirit of Peace be spread abroad.
May men of goodwill everywhere meet in a spirit of cooperation.

May forgiveness on the part of all men be the keynote at this time.
Let power attend the efforts of the Great Ones.
So let it be, and help us to do our part. — 1935 Invocation.
Disciples reciting the Great Invocation each day.
Join us everyone…in the Ashram. love, Risa

At each festival this year, I wanted our esoteric group to
plant flowers. Maybe that will happen for everyone here, too.
A thoughtful endeavor, an ACTION, for the three festivals.
An action with intention for Beauty.
Lifting the kingdoms to the Kings of Beauty.
And so…
Mercury stations direct today. Monday, April 7th.
At 27 degrees Pisces.
Mercury remains it its retrograde shadow til April 26th.
And so…
With Neptune exiting Pisces & entering Aries,
soon Saturn & the asteroid Ceres will follow.
Late May, Saturn leaves Pisces (after 2 1/2 years) & enters Aris to join Neptune – and then that’s a whole other astrological story!
Neptune and Saturn in Pisces, the end sign of the zodiac, ended major cycles for humanity.
In Aries, they join Aquarius for a whole new era of evolutionary growth.
Ceres in Pisces is asleep, dreaming.
Ceres in Aries begins the new gardens for the new year.
The wild roses.

We are no longer exhausted with Neptune having entered Aries.
With Neptune in Aries, we have Martian (6) & Mercury (4) energy.
Mercury (4) directing Mars (6) – giving Mars direction, leading Mars into harmony instead of aggression, anger & destruction.
Mercury (Ray 4) attempts to harmonize like Venus (intelligence, facts, truth, Ray 5) bringing that which is separate into unity.

Aries (1/7) rulers – personality & Soul & Spiritual rulers.
Mars – Fight for what you believe.
Mercury – bring harmony forth.
Mercury needs to direct Mars energy in Aries.
Uranus (7) – hearing the voice from the Mind of God.

Neptune (6) in Aries (1/7) – the spiritual warrior of peace.
And peace is not the opposite of war.

Aries Spring Festival on Saturday at the full moon.
Light from a pointer star in the Big Dipper.
Streaming down into the hearts & minds of Humanity.
Star of Direction.
Aries Festival is a Love Festival.
How can that be, we ask?
Maybe someone can tell us.

Electric fire from Uranus thru Mercury & the Soul (2).
We are the Thinkers (Mercury).
We become the Disciples, the Initiates.
The pioneers.

Message from the Flowers.
The Wild Rose.
Wild rose – there are 100s of varieties established, each has a deva, different arrangement of forces in each one. they are like daughters, part of us. there is a change of force yet with no separation. Like a breath, we come & go. We have joy w/out reason. The Wild Rose.
