(a study of the true prez chart).
He’s the Great Awakener.
Awakening all of humanity on all levels.
This is a great task given to a great Disciple/Initiate.

As he appears on the stage & in front of the people.
There is a dual (Gemini) response.
Gemini points out duality.
Everyone has either a response (love) or a reaction (hate).
He is Gemini Sun –
The task of Gemini is to act in such a way that
the duality within our world is very apparent & recognized.
Nice work, Mr. President.

Understanding the true prez.
See the 1st chart below (inner wheel). The outer wheel is the present days’ transits.
He has….
Sun in Gemini, Leo Rising, Neptune, Chiron, Jupiter in Libra.
All parts of his life in plain view.
Libra is about Sex money & the Law.
Neptune Chiron & Jupiter in Libra.
The interests of the MASSES of humanity –
Sex. Money. The Law (legality, the rules).

And so….
Three levels of humanity watched the trial.
Those interested in sex, in money & the law.
The three personality levels of humanity.
Libra is sex money & the law.
So the trial brought all levels of the masses (working within instinct) & their interests to the forefront.

Who watched (along with esotericists & spiritual people too?).
1.The ones interested in sex, things lascivious & tawdry – the masses of humanity, unawakened as yet, functioning on instinct.
2. The ones who are interested in money – the financiers – these are the intellectuals – wielders of interactions in the world.
3. The ones who are interested in the law – the thinkers, the lawyers.
3. And everyone else (Soul centered, esotericists, spiritual people etc, charts in hand, understanding this is a real life drama, staged for humanity’s awakening).

So the trial had all of humanity watching – the trial’s purpose was/is to bring awareness to all of humanity –

Astrology Chart
Leo Rising – Soul Purpose is leadership, leading with Love.
Mercury in Cancer – saying “I love you” to the masses of humanity.
Gemini Sun, North Node, Uranus – When I speak I am to Awaken the people.
Gemini – I will point out the duality in our legal system.
Jupiter retrograde – I am different.
Libra – for the interest of the masses I will point out to you sex, money & the Law – that there is no more Rule of Law.
Libra – Sex Money the Law. I will show these to you because that is what you are interested in. But then I will tell you more things.
For I am the Awakener (Uranus in Gemini).

True Prez & his Astrology.
Understanding people & events in our world via astrology –
The true prez & his Astrology Chart
(Notes: – see his chart below –
1. the 1st one is the true prez w/ present day transits,
2. the 2nd chart is the true prez (inner wheel) in relation to the United States chart (outer wheel).
We use the tool of Astrology (personality level & esoteric Soul level interpretations) to understand people, events & our world.

Understanding the true prez’s way of speaking Gemini Sun, Cancer Mercury).
He is not a politician.
He speaks to the people (Cancer Mercury).
He is a talker (Gemini).
He is Gemini – a talker.
DJT = 34 = the number of convictions.

The Astrology – see charts below.
Planets in Gemini –
1. Gemini Sun (illuminating duality),
2. North Node (purpose of this lifetime, the Path ahead) &,
3. Uranus (unexpected ways of speaking) – all three in Gemini.

He act within, displays & points out duality – which is a basic realities in our world of matter.
The duality of dark & light, bad & good, separative & unifying, this & that, here & there, up & down.

Uranus – the change agent.
Uranus in Gemini – the Change Agent.
The true president is a “change agent”.
Uranus (change) in Gemini (agent).
“I’ve come to interrupt you”, says Uranus.
And the true prez came & interrupted the long held corruption.
And the agents of corruption seek to destroy him.

Change comes about when we are awakened to the truth of the matter of all things.

Gemini Sun/North Node – always pointing out dualities & polarities & things that need changing (Uranus).

Neutral (signs & planets)
The signs & planets their energies are neutral.
Gemini is neutral. It speaks of & points out what it sees.

Trump has Sun & North Node (task/path in this lifetime) in Gemini (Ray 2 of love/wisdom).
Sirius (Ray 2), where love originates flows thru Gemini).
Gemini is the rising sign of the U.S.
Gemini – is Ray 2 of Love/Wisdom.
He says to the masses “I love you.”

Gemini Sun always points out dualities, polarities, the dark & the light, the good & the bad.
The “pointing out” itself is a neutral action which Gemini provides.
Gemini’s task – act within, display, be & point out dualities in our world.

Truth Spoken (Sag)
What is the sign opposite his Gemini Sun sign?
Look at the chart, find the answers.
The sign opposite Trump’s Sun in Gemini is Sagittarius.
Truth is task of Sagittarius.
Speaking the truth, is the task of Sagittarius.
Sagittarius is the sign of Truth.

The sign opposite the Sun sign is the Earth.
Where one stands.
The true prez stands on the Earth in the sign of Sagittarius, sign of Truth.

Sag tells the truth about everything. They can’t do otherwise!
And isn’t always graceful about it. The truth can be blunt.
Just blunt & truthful. That is Sag’s purpose.
Day by day, whatever happens in his life….
He is taking us on a journey to the Truth.
Uncovering the “eyes of Justice” (Sagittarius).
Justice, hidden behind a mask.
Our eyes are often blinded to the truth.
Sagittarius speaks the Truth so we (humanity) can begin to “see.”
The Truth is like a sword. It’s not peaceful.
It cuts away the blindfolds.

Note his Jupiter Chiron & Neptune in Libra.
Pointing out the hidden lies (Neptune).
Being the human sacrifice (Chiron).
And being bolder (Jupiter) than life itself.
Note his Jupiter is retrograde.
When we have Jupiter &/or Saturn is retrograde, we act differently than the norm. We hear the beat of a different drum.
We don’t follow the usual paths everyone else follows.
We are “different.” Note this as it is most important.

Leo rising – the lion.
Regulus is the heart of Leo – Regulus is Maga, the Magician.
Leo is the sign of the Will of God (Ray 1).
And the sign of bring true information to the People (Ray 5).
We are the Aryan race (life wave). As the Aryan Race, a Ray 5 life wave, we are to become Thinkers. To be Thinkers we must awaken to who we are. Much of humanity is still unawakened.
Thus, a burning ground (which Leo’s fires create) is created on our Earth – a crisis, so humanity can awaken.
There is always a martyr within that burning ground.
One who is like the Christ – a sacrifice (1st Law of the Soul).
A martyr, who takes on the Karma of the people, the country & enacts the steps of a Great Initiation. The Christ did this 2000 years ago for humanity. This is again being re-enacted by the true prez – on the Burning Ground, in plain sight of all the people.
What is occurring is a Great Test & Initiation for the people in our country now too. The USA is called the New Jerusalem, an experiment in freedom. Therefore the people of the US are viewing a great drama being enacted which is also a TEST.
Asking the people do you see the truth of the matter or do you not? Do you understand this man’s purpose or do you not?
Do you know the implications of the times we are in or do you not? Do you see the consequences of the F/Darkness & their plans or do you not? Where do you stand? That is the question & the test for all the people in our country.

The true prez is all that he says & does is offering us information.
Each individual person sees & understand or they do not.

Saturn & Venus in Cancer (see 11th house).
Saturn is the Dweller on the Threshold.
Venus is the Angel of the Presence.
Humanity is now facing the Dweller (Saturn, all things not yet harmonized). When all things are harmonized, Venus then appears, the Angel of the Present. With the Keys to the next evolutionary step.

The true prez is Hercules.
Leo Rising – Soul Purpose.
He is attempting to conquer the lion (dark forces, corruption) in the cave (hidden away till now). Facing the cave, like Hercules, the true prez is saying to the people, “the lion is here! There is a very important task & deed that I must do” (as must all Disciple Initiates). And the son of man who is yet a son of God, must enter the cave & pass thru its darkness into the light of day. And the lion was wily. He stood in front of Hercules, then behind him.

And Hercules asks, “What shall I do, how do I kill this lion and same the people?” And he sees he must block the way to the light of day & shut himself in the cave and build a fire and actually face the destructive lion! And grasp the lion with his two hands and choke out its life force until the lion, the enemy of man, is dead. So the people can once again live their lives, till their lands, sow their seeds and walk in peace together.

The Initiation is for all of humanity, sons of man, becoming Sons of God. This is the message of the true president.
Each one of us sees & recognizes this.
Or we do not.
Both have consequences for the Dark Forces of the Lords of Atlantis. Clever & cruel they are. Those captured by them will have Paradise Lost.

On this Saturday, Saturn’s day.
Saturn is the Teacher….we study & learn under Saturn.
love, Risa

Geomagnetic Storms

Geomagnetic Storms yesterday from the Sun.
Continuing today. Careful everyone.
Makes one feel crazy, body hurts, emotions rising. 
Right choices, right communication difficult. 
Wednesday, September 9, 2015 – Mercury’s day.
Mercury rules, guards & guides our day – with new information.
Building the mind each day so that we can enter the plane of intuition.
Knowledge (Jupiter) builds our minds, allowing us to work with Pallas Athena, the intuitional plane, the Buddhic plane (4th, central plane on the Constitution of Man/Mind – an esoteric doctrine).
The sky in the early mornings – pre dawn – 
the moon, Venus, Jupiter, Regulus, etc.
Remaining under the Light & protection of Virgo.
The Madonna, the Mother (matter) pregnant with the new kingdom.
The 5th Kingdom, that of the Soul.
Life quickens. We await Winter Solstice, when the new light comes forth.
When the Solar Angels came to Earth, sacrificing themselves,
in the Lemurian Age – 18-21 million years ago – our little protoplasmic bodies were broken into two – we became two genders – male & female. This was a new developmental stage on Earth.
Leo is the male. Virgo is the female parts of ourselves.
Gender is NOT sex. Sex is the manifestation of gender only.
Gender display duality – the light/dark, the up/down, the radiating/the receptive – dualities allow us to see two sides, to eventually make choices, then to synthesize the two – which is an upliftment above duality – the point at the top of the triangle. We draw that triangle. Mercury, Gemini & Virgo all understand this…
Leo/Virgo is the Sphinx. Until we understand duality, the sphinx is a mystery.
Leo is the male principle – the radiating outward, initiating, seed-thought principle.
Virgo is the female principle – the receptive, gestating the seed thoughts, the bringer forth in matter of the initiating seed thought.
Through the eons the two have been separate.
They have not been understood. The mind has not been understood either.
The mind has a lower mind (receptive). And a higher mind (radiating outward). The lower mind if asleep can be manipulated. 
We must be careful to be awake, have a directed focused mind.
So that our lower mind does not remain unconscious & thus controlled by the Forces of Materialism.
Our minds are both male (focused, radiating outward)
And female (receptive, gestating).
Our minds must be both to be effective in our world.
Most of humanity function within the receptive mind.
Humanity must lift the lower mind up to the Light of the Soul.
So each of us can become “creators” in our lives.
And no longer enslaved.
The Forces of Materialism understand this – the receptive asleep unconscious mind. They project outward, through TV, the media, technology, symbols, colors, shapes, ideas, thoughts, words, that keep us asleep, keep us in the depths of materialism. The Matrix.
Offering humanity the Light of the Soul, the direction from the Soul, is the function of Virgo – her secret in the “cave of the heart.”
The masculine (radiating Light) part of the Mind directs the process 
Associated with Will, provides the Seed Thought, initiating energies.
Electricity
We think of electricity – the proton, the one in the center w/ electrons around the proton.
The feminine (electrons) takes the seed thought (proton), builds & creates with the Light of the Soul. The parts of the mind unite under the Light of the Soul.
Study, prayer, meditation focuses the mind.
Builds the mind, strengthens it. Unites the female & male parts of the mind.
Lifts the lower to the higher, the direction of the mind through the Soul.
This is Virgo.
***Virgo
from Esoteric Astrology – p. 154 
The mystery of the Sphinx, connected with the relation of Leo and Virgo, and tied up with the secret of the solar Angels. This is not the mystery of soul and form, but the mystery of the higher and the lower mind and their relation to each other.
Virgo has a close relation to the creation of all forms in nature, and is intimately connected to the deva or angelic kingdom, from the lowest nature spirits and elementals, up to the greatest archangels and Divine Builders.
Virgo represents the laborious service in the heart of matter which the Solar Angels expend in their aeonial supervision of a human being. As well, the Solar Angels are already deeply expressive of the Christ Principle (buddhi, or solar love) and are those lives that stimulate the germination of the Christ Principle (under Virgo) in the heart of those they supervise.
***
Matrix 
The Forces of Materialism create the Matrix, the “traps” for humanity.
They are clever, keeping humanity asleep, exhausted, overworked, homeless, hungry, frightened. For our minds to awaken we must continually gather new information, use discernment & discrimination.
Working together to illumine & enlighten ourselves, each other & all of humanity. This is the work of the Soul in Service (the 3rd Law of the Soul). This is the work of the New Group of World Servers. This is the work of Virgo.
Read Catherine Austin Fitts’ blog today.
Understanding humanity’s global enslavement.
So we can recognize it, understand it, & then turn the other way creating the new…together.

Learning together, each day in the Ashram.
Our College, our school, our refuge…love, Risa
At the UN today – watching it on UN TV.
We are careful what we see. We are discerning & discriminating.
The UN, like all things in form & matter, have a personality, a Soul & an essential originating Spirit (purpose, goal). The UN is an outpost of the Hierarchy. The Avatar of Synthesis oversees the General Assembly. The Security Council at times functions like the personality. We are careful of the Agendas that the UN brings forth. If they Agendas are brought forth & supported by the corporations, then we know that Centralization (read control) is the outcome of the proposals. We are careful, discriminating, we are intelligent, informed, knowledgeable, we are discerning. We call therefore upon the Soul & Spirit of the United Nations to come forth.

Full Moon Tonight, Cancer Solar Festival, July 1, 2015

Full Moon Tonight, Cancer Solar Festival, July 1, 2015
Cancer – The Light of Form, Awaiting the Light of the Soul.
Studying today, drawing Triangles, preparing for the Cancer solar festival. 
A Dance – the Pleiades (Enra Dance Company). Jewel box of lights, Pleiades.
In the time of Cancer. At the Cancer solar festival (full moon).
Cancer is Ray 3 (& 7). Ray 3, Divine Intelligence, Right Action.
Ray 7 – anchoring the Intelligence to create new rhythms of life on Earth. The Pleiades, 7 stars, 7 sister, 7 wives of the 7 brothers (Seven Rays in the Big Dipper). Ray 3. Our first solar system.
Here is a Dance of the Pleiades from the Enra Dance Troupe of Japan.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0813gcZ1Uw8
The Astrology
Complex day today w/ planets in the heavens highlighting the Cancer solar festival.
Venus & Jupiter in Leo (we see them together in the night sky).
The moon entered Capricorn this morning to join with the Sun for the full moon.
Sun in Cancer trines Neptune in Pisces.
Then the full moon this evening.
Preparation
Let us join together all day today.
Standing in Confidence, Aspiration & Dedication.
These hold our minds steady in the Light.
Meditations are held all day today & this evening.
Our group will come together at the following times.
6pm west coast
8pm Midwest
9pm East Coast
Invocations
We will recite the Soul & Great Invocation.
Join the NGWS world wide in the celebration of this Cancer Festival.
“I build a Lighted House & Therein Dwell.”
These are the words of the Soul.
Building a house of Light out of the personality (physical body, emotions, lower mind). The loneliness & isolation of the personality ceases as the Light of the Soul begins to penetrate the personality (matter). Gradually we (the personality) are illuminated to the idea of unity & universality, of Oneness. When the Soul begins its direction of the personality, we become, like the Christ, a channel for the “Light of the World.” When we radiate this Light it becomes “unlimited nourishment to all forms & creatures of life, to all the “little ones.”
Dedication
We dedicate ourselves at this Cancer Solar Festival to be the “Light for the World, nourishing the ‘little ones.’” This becomes our dedication for ever more.
We become the Universal Mother, pouring forth the “waters of life” to humanity.
We have limitless compassion; we develop inner reserves of nurturing energy. We selflessly create forms & structures on Earth for the betterment of humanity. We work with foods, agriculture, networking with women & men of Goodwill. We become the expression of Ray 3 (Divine Intelligence, Right Action, Right Use of Money/Resources, Ray 6 (Dedication, Vision) & Ray 7 (anchoring the Will-to-Good on Earth). These “pour through us unto a waiting & hungry humanity.”
This is our work today. Working always together in the Ashram.
Under the Light of the Soul.

Learning More,
Cancer Solar Festival at the Time of the Full Moon 
The Full Moon of the Teacher
The (lower) mind is ruled by the moon, for the lower mind represents the reflective principle. According to our alignment the mind mirrors the higher and subtle or the lower and material. Especially in Cancer spiritual Disciples reflect upon the higher realms, thinking about, making contact with our Teachers, Guides & our (individual, group, world) Soul. The Teachers work as reflective principles and transmitters of higher energies, transmitting Light & Love & information to those who follow them. The Master says in the Spiritual Psychology meditations, “These energies are from Higher Circles. These are from whom I follow to those who follow me.”
In the East (geography) Cancer (the sign) is considered the month of the Teacher and Cancer solar festival at the time of the full moon is celebrated as the full moon of the World Teacher. (M.K.)
***
Understanding Precipitation of Light (a triangle)
1. The Teacher, which is also the Soul, becomes the “Light of the World” for our personality.
2. The NGWS is to be the “Light of the World” for humanity.
3. Humanity is the “Light of the World” for the lower kingdoms – animal, plant, and mineral. And for each other (humanity).

Drawing Triangles
Making Contact with the Heavens Through Symbols & Art
Venus Jupiter conjunction in Leo today/tonight.
Sun/Neptune – Cancer/Pisces.
We draw our triangles. Explained by the Tibetan. This prepares us more fully for the Cancer solar festival meditation tonight.
Cancer triangles and Neptune
From Esoteric Astrology, pp. 415-417
Lying behind all the many interlocking triangles in our solar system and conditioning them are three energies (emanations) from three major constellations – the Great Bear, the Pleiades and from Sirius. It might be pointed out that:
1. The energies from the Great Bear are related to the Will or Purpose (Ray 1) of the Solar Logos and are to this great Being what the Monad (Will of God) is to humanity/man (the mind of man). This is a deep mystery and one which even the highest initiate cannot yet grasp. Its sevenfold unified energies pass through Shamballa.
2. The energies from the sun, Sirius, are related to the Love/Wisdom (Ray 2) aspect of God or to the attractive power of the Solar Logos, to the Soul of that Great Being. This cosmic Soul energy is related to the Hierarchy. Know that the great White Lodge on Sirius finds its reflection and a mode of spiritual service and outlet in the great White Lodge of our planet, the Hierarchy.
3. The energies coming from the Pleiades, an aggregation of seven energies, are connected with the Active Divine Intelligence aspect (Ray 3) of God (Logoic expression), and influence the form side of all manifestation. They focus primarily through Humanity.
We draw these above triangles.
Triangles of Force
Connected with this major triangle and affecting powerfully our entire solar system is another set of triangles – a triple interrelation in special relation to humanity. This triangle of forces relates one of the major constellations, one of the zodiacal signs and one of the sacred planets within our solar system.
We draw these triangles.
• 
• 1st Triangle: The Pleiades – Cancer – Venus for Humanity.
• 2nd Triangle: The Great Bear – Aries – Pluto for Shamballa. 
• 3rd Triangle: Sirius – Leo Jupiter for Hierarchy.

Cancer & Sirius are related
The US is ruled by Cancer & Sirius (12/13 degrees Cancer)
From Esoteric Astrology p. 466
Cancer and Sirius 
Cancer—Capricorn—Saturn (a triangle) (which are an expression of Sirius energy) enable the aspirant to tread the Path of Purification, of Probation. These energies focus and qualify the energy of the Great Lodge of the Most High in that distant Sun. They pour through the Hierarchy upon the mass of men and enable the unit in that mass to “isolate himself and turn his back upon the past and find his way on to that section of the Path wherein he learns to feel.” 
1. Sirius – Working through – Cancer – Saturn – Capricorn
2. The Pleiades – Working through – Gemini – Mercury – Sagittarius
3. The Great Bear – Working through – Aries – Sun – Libra
We draw these triangles.
***
Cancer & Neptune 
(Cancer streams through Neptune – the Christed (Soul’s) waters of life. Neptune is the Soul & Spiritual ruler of Cancer.
Today during the Full moon time, the Sun is trine Neptune – Neptune is the Soul & Spiritual ruler of Cancer – Spirit entering into matter.
From Esoteric Astrology p. 217-218
A great mystery is veiled and hidden in the relationship between Cancer & Neptune – for Cancer-Neptune is expressive of the seventh ray which anchors the Will of God, the Will-to-Good on Earth. This energy is apparent and radiating to humanity today at the full moon, Cancer solar festival.
We learn about these things together.
We draw our triangles.
We prepare for the Cancer solar festival.
Together. Love, Risa

st. mark winged lionToday is St. Mark’s Feast Day – one of the writers of the 4 Gospels (New Testament – the Good News).
Everyone has a gift, a talent, abilities (Leo, individual creative self).
St. Mark’s gift was writing. He wrote about the Messiah being rejected by humanity. Mark’s gospel is the shortest of the four (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John).
Mark’s symbol is A winged lion – from Mark’s description of John the Baptist as a “voice of one crying out in the desert” (Mark 1:3), which artists compared to a roaring lion. The wings come from the application of Ezekiel’s vision of four winged creatures (Ezekiel, chapter one) to the evangelist

Wesak – the Three Spring Festivals are all about the Plan of God – restoring the Plan of God on Earth through the enlightenment of humanity’s minds & the absorption of the Will-to-Good, which becomes Goodwill within humanity. Let us adapt to the coming festival, eat lighter, drink more water, stand in the Sun’s rays early morning & at sunset. Let us continue to prepare so that we can perceive the Divine Purpose of the Father for Earth.
Speak with the Devas each day in the garden. We stand in cooperation with the Devas. They are the Builders. They build like the pregnant mother builds a new form within her body. We are in the process of attempting to manifest a new world. First we contact the Mind of God, we perceive the plan, conceptualize it & then bring the new world into form. The Devas (builders) are part of this. This was the function & Purpose of the Spiritual Community called Findhorn in Northern Scotland.

 

Our preparations for Wesak continue. Rereading yesterday’s posting for Wesak preparations. Continuing with our Forgiveness – asking & offering. Loosening the past, adapting to the present, envisioning the future world, which we create. Walking with other pilgrims to the Wesak Valley. Forming community of Servers with others there. Gazing at the stone altar. Tending the fire.

World Malaria Day
2015 UN Theme: Invest in the future. Defeat Malaria
The global fight towards zero malaria deaths is one of the great stories of our time. A partnership of over 500 UN agencies, governments, organizations and stakeholders are working together in the Rollback Malaria Partnership. Throughout the past decade, as a result of this effort, deaths from malaria have steadily declined. It is a distinct possibility that by 2015, Goal 6 of the Millennium Development Goals, will be met, ensuring that malaria is no longer a major cause of mortality and no longer a barrier to social and economic development and growth anywhere in the world.
A new strategy aims to reduce malaria cases and deaths by 90% by 2030 from current levels. Four countries have been certified free of malaria in the last decade and the post-2015 strategy sets the goal of eliminating the disease from a further 35 countries by 2030.

Annunciation – Three Spring Festivals – the Soul – Preparation

Annunciation (meaning & symbolism); Three Spring Festivals; the Soul; Preparation. Sun in Aries (new thoughts) trine Saturn (the Teacher’s teachings) today – Saturn in Sag – in our college learning together.
Wednesday, March 25, 2015 – Mercury’s Day – information gathered/dispersed, pondered upon, integrated. Mercury is the Soul ruler of Aries, the voice of the Intuition. Today is a day of information, of Ray 4 – harmony achieved through conflict & chaos. We observe this, as we stand within the Cross of Intention, working both vertically & horizontally…

It is important (in our Lenten preparation for the Resurrection/Aries Festival) to begin to understand the Purpose of the Three Spring Festivals…
& the Three Spiritual Forces coming forth at these solar festivals – our understanding allows us to work with the Forces, absorbing & then radiating them out into the world of humanity in need. This is our Service Work. The Three Spring Festivals set the template, the Plan for the other nine solar & new moon festivals.

Annunciation – Announcement of new life gestating, birthed as the New Light at Winter Solstice – metaphors, symbols, etc.

Symbolism – the Soul (new life & life & direction) awaiting recognition by the personality (physical body, emotions, lower mind).

The Annunciation of Angel Gabriel to Mary that she would bear a holy child (the Son – Ray 2, new consciousness) was/is announcement to Mary/humanity the fact of the Soul awaiting recognition by the personality (when the personality is strong & prepared enough through experiences on the Mutable Cross – the Cross of experiences in/of form & matter – to receive the Light & Direction of the Soul).

Today is the Feast Day of the Annunciation of Mary.
When the Archangel Gabriel announced to Mary (reminded her of her contract prior to her physical life birth) that it was the time for her gestation/pregnancy, which would bring forth the new life (Jesus, a Master who would be overshadowed at age 30 by the Christ, the Avatar & Archangel from Sirius), at winter solstice. Gabriel told Mary to name her son Yeshua (Jesus), meaning, “YHWH is salvation”.

Many Christians observe the Feast of the Annunciation on 25 March, nine full months before Christmas (Winter Solstice, the new light of the world appears), ceremonial birthday of Jesus. The date of the Annunciation also marks the New Year in many places. In England it is called Lady Day. Both the Roman and Orthodox Catholic Churches state the Annunciation took place at Nazareth. The Annunciation has been inspiration in Christian & Marian art in the Catholic Church, particularly during the Middle Ages and Renaissance.

Symbolism
The Annunciation symbolizes for all of humanity the fact of the Soul (Son, Holy Child), as it awaits recognition by the personality. The Soul is the intermediary between Matter (Mother) & Spirit (Father). The holy child (Jesus, later the Christ) is the result of the marriage between Matter & Spirit. Our personality resides wholly in matter. It needs upliftment to the Light of the Soul to be able to recognize the Spirit (the Father) within. We, as Spirits, reside in Matter/the Mother. The Soul/the Son/Holy Child is our consciousness of this reality. The tension & the marriage between Spirit & Matter allows for the Soul (holy child within us) to come forth. This is the symbolism of the Annunciation – a holy revelation/feast. So now we know.

In the Bible, the Annunciation is narrated in Luke 1:26-38:
26 And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, 27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary. 28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

29 And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be. 30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God. 31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. 32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:

33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

38: And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

Luke 1:32, 35 reads:
He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High … The power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God. (from Risa – Son/Holy Child = Ray2 Love/Wisdom = consciousness coming forth from marriage of Father & Mother creating the Soul, code word for “son.”)

Dead Sea Scrolls manuscript 4Q246 reads:
“…. He shall be great upon the earth. O king, all people shall make peace, and all shall serve him. He shall be called the son of the Great God, and by his name shall he be hailed as the Son of God, and they shall call him Son of the Most High.” (Dead Sea scrolls manuscript Q4Q246)

In Eastern Christianity Mary is referred to as Theotokos (Θεοτόκος =”God-bearer”). The traditional Troparion (hymn for the day) of the Annunciation which goes back to Saint Athanasius of Alexandria is:
“Today is the beginning of our salvation,
And the revelation of the eternal mystery!
The Son of God becomes the Son of the Virgin
As Gabriel announces the coming of Grace.
Together with him let us cry to the Theotokos:
“Rejoice, O Full of Grace, the Lord is with you!”

The Annunciation is described in the Qur’an, in Sura (sutra/thread of a hymn) 003:045 (Al-i-Imran – The Family of Imran) verses 45-51 (Yusuf Ali translation):

45 Behold! the Angels said: “O Mary! Allah giveth thee glad tidings of a Word from Him: his name will be Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, held in honour in this world and the Hereafter and of (the company of) those nearest to Allah;”

And Sura Template: Cite Qur’an (Maryam – Mary) verses 16-26 also refers to it. Muslim tradition holds that the Annunciation took place during the month of Ramadan. In the Qur’an “behold an angel of the Lord has spoken. ” Mary will bear the true Son of God” “He will be called Jesus Christ.” “His domain is over the entire Earth. Joy to you, behold His Holy name.”

We place these teachings in our hearts, in the heart of our Group Work. From our Spiritual Astrological Theology classes within our College Ashram.

The Astrology of the Annunciation
The Annunciation occurs in Aries.
The Soul ruler of Aries is Mercury.

Mary is the Virgin, Virgo. The ruler of Virgo is Mercury (Jupiter is the spiritual ruler).

Aries Keynote on the Soul level –
“I come forth & from the plane of mind (intuition) I rule (offer information),” says Mercury, Ray 4 – seeking/showing forth the path to harmony through what seems to be conflicting chaos.

From the “chaos” comes forth the new Life. Aries is Ray 1 & 7 – Ray 1 is the Will of the Father. When anchored on Earth, Ray 1 becomes Ray 7 – the Will of the Father to anchor the Plan on Earth – Ray 7 – thus the new life, new rhythms come forth in form & matter (through the Mother Principles). Jupiter is the result – greater Love/Wisdom (Ray 2). We think on these things. The intuition understands.

Tasks of the NGWS & the Three upcoming Spring Festivals
Preparation Through Knowledge –
The Three Spring Festival & their Three Forces =
Restoration, Enlightenment & Reconstruction coming into the Earth. During Aries, Taurus & Gemini.

Helping us build/create the New Materialism (Communities of Sharing). They help us create Constructive Living, the Art of Living for all of humanity.

The NGWS stand between these Forces & humanity. Our task is to gather these forces into our groups & radiate them to humanity at the three festivals.

They (Forces & Spirit of Resurrection) also, as they unfold during the Three Spring Festivals (Aries, Taurus, Gemini), bring forth the new world, new Era Community, new culture & civilization, for humanity. The NGWS is to participate fully in these three festivals & help the Forces reorient humanity, uplift humanity, re-educate humanity, help humanity re-identify as the Group of World Servers.

In Aries, the Forces of Restoration & the Spirit of Resurrection are anchored on Earth. We stand with them in preparation.

Tomorrow I will post the information given to students from the Tibetan on the Three Spring Festivals. Let us be prepared to take notes, understand deeply the process of what is coming forth. Let us participate in preparing together. As we gather knowledge, let it turn into the Wisdom needed to be part of the NGWS. Love, Risa

Working with the NGWS (esoteric inner group) at the UN – (last night in the TV show “Forever”, the theme of the show was the ancient slave trade, the ships carrying the slaves from Africa to the east coast of America).

March 25
International Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade

2015 Theme: Women and Slavery
Recognizing how little is known about the 400-year-long transatlantic slave trade and its lasting consequences, March 25 has been designated as an annual day of remembrance of the trade and its victims. The intention is to raise awareness among future generations of the causes, consequences and lessons of the transatlantic slave trade and to communicate the dangers of racism and prejudice.

M-flares, Mars, Antares before dawn, Dahl Bhat (recipe)

March 11, 2015 – At 4:30 am this morning (Wednesday) we had another M-flare (flare from the Sun). Tomorrow morning, before dawn Antares can be seen below Moon/Saturn (golden yellow) in the pre-dawn darkened sky. Antares – Fire Star in the Hall of Light (the heavens – a Hall of Light.

Today (March 11) is Wednesday – its ruler (guardian) is Mercury.
Mercury is Hermes (Egyptian God of Knowledge).
Mercury (with Gemini) builds the Rainbow Bridge of Light.
So the personality can be lifted up to the Soul.
And then directed by the Soul –
An entrance into the Temple of Knowledge that becomes Wisdom.

Even though today is Mercury’s regular guardianship Day, due to the present transits (planetary influences in the sky falling to earth affecting all the kingdoms) & their potency, Mercury shares the day with Mars & with Antares (a star in Scorpio, heralding the spring equinox (in 9 days). Antares is the star amidst a cluster of metallic (not dust) clouds the color of red. Antares means “like, akin to Mars” due to its saffron-reddish color.

Antares can be seen tonight below Moon & Saturn.
Antares is the bright red star at the heart of Scorpio.
Mars is the personality & Soul ruler of Scorpio.
Thus, Scorpio is relevant today on many levels.
Scorpio – the Call to Discipleship.

In Babylonia, Antares was called Urbat, Lord of the Seed, Creator of Prosperity, the King and god of lightning, the Day-Heaven-bird. The Egyptians worshipped it as the goddess Selkit, heralding the sunrise in her temples at the autumn equinox, and as a symbol of Isis in pyramid ceremonials.

“Antares demands we ‘take a stand’ for our truth against the established conditions of our personal lives and against the established order or authority directing our lives when those conditions and that authority are no longer in our best interest nor supporting or evolutionary freedom.” (The Lunar Planner, Nick Fiorenza

Mars
Mars Today in the Sky (see chart 1st house)
Mars in Aries conjunct Uranus in Aries (1st house, 14/15 degrees Aries). Both Mars & Uranus are “rulers” of Aries.
Mars in Aries square Pluto in Capricorn (see 10th house, 15 degrees)

The new archetypes (Uranus/Aires) can expand outward, anchor in the world. Through the Fire Trine (Triangle).
The water of Pisces mixed with the fire trine brings forth the new cycle of Lift itself – Pisces – “the Light that ends forever the darkness of matter.”

Fire Trine (Uranus, Jupiter, Saturn)
Aries (new life springing upward), Leo (individual creativity), Sag (out into the world, expanded by Jupiter, Sag’s ruler (guardian).
Mars, Uranus, Pluto (yesterday Jupiter was also in the mix).
Aries (all things new)
Capricorn (structural transformation of all that we know & live within).
Mars/Uranus square Pluto
Squares bring/call something into manifestation – anchors a new direction/reality.

Dream – I have dreamt about lentils this week.
Here is a lentil recipe = Tibetan/Nepalese

(Dal) Dhal Bhat – (pronounced doll-bought) = what it this?
Dahl is lentils, bhat is rice.
Lentils & Rice – Tibetan/Nepalese recipe.

It has its roots in the Himalayas of Nepal, the food of the Nepalese people. It also has a large influence on mountaineering in the area. On the trek into Everest base camp, “Dal Bhat” is basically the only meal served in the teahouses along the path. It’s a dish of plant-based nutrition which fuels climbers in the most strenuous environment in the world = carbohydrates, protein, fiber, vegetables, vitamins, and spices. It is the most perfectly balanced meal.

Here are 2 recipes –
