*RADIANCE MANTRAM
Radiance we are & power
We stand forever with our hands outstretched
Linking the heavens & the Earth
The inner world of meaning
And the subtle world of glamours.

We reach into the Light
And bring it down to meet the need
We reach into the silent place
And bring from thence
The gift of understanding

Thus with the Light we work
And turn the darkness into day.

Thus with the Light we work
And turning the darkness into day.

From “Glamour, a World Problem”, p. 232

Reappearance of the Christ Preparation Meditation

It’s Thursday – Reappearance Meditation – Preparation
Today, following our weekly rhythms is Thursday, Jupiter’s day, the Preparation for the Reappearance of the Christ (Aquarian World Teacher) Meditation. We recite it together in the Ashram…turning toward the Christ (who was also the Piscean World Teacher) in dedication …in an attitude of aspiration, devotion, prayer & fixed intention (in this order). We combine the heart & mind, we are brief & dynamic, we are impelled by the synthesis & sequence of the prayer, Facing the Christ -we stand together quietly under the Light of the Soul & say…

“Forgetting the things which lie behind
I strive toward my highest spiritual possibilities
I dedicate myself anew
To the Service of the Coming One (Christ, the World Aquarian Teacher)
And will do all I can
To prepare humanity’s minds & hearts
For that Event.
I have no other life intention.”
Ohm, Ohm, Ohm.

As we see the world in all its many differentiations and planes of development & its kingdoms (mineral, plant, animal, human, & the new emerging Kingdom of the Soul), we visualize (from our Ajna [middle of forehead] centers, Center of Direction) Light, Love & Purpose flowing into the world, into the hearts & minds of humanity & especially into places where there is great need.

We concentrate our fixed intention to serve & to radiate Love in all our surroundings. We realize that as we do these things we are blending our personality (little) will with Divine Will. Standing under the Will-to-Good, radiating this Good. And thus the kingdoms & humanity, all that we encounter, are uplifted and transformed. And this is part of the preparation for the Coming of the Aquarian Teacher. We understand all of this in our hearts.

We sound the Ohm 3 times, dedicating our 3-fold personality (physical body, emotional body, lower concrete mind) to the Work of Preparation. We stand together with Intention to Prepare.

Ohm. Ohm. Ohm.

Mars, South Node – in Aries.
Sometimes transits (planets in the sky moving about) occur and their effects happen the day or days afterward. Yesterday, Mars joined South Node in Aries. Every Aries I ever knew seemed to contact me (last night, this morning). People from long ago who I knew & lost contact with were contacting me.

Mars, South Node – Mars is movement. South Node is about the past. Movements, contacts from the past appear. They may be fleeting. However, they appear, making themselves known again. We recognize, respect & greet them in passing. We all play(ed) our part.

Mars is coming up on (connecting energetically with) Uranus square Pluto in the next week, a preliminary to the March 16th Uranus/Pluto. Mars squares Pluto on the 11th, Uranus squares Pluto on the 16th. All week, from now onward, tensions will be building. We may externalize these tensions through abrupt outbursts, anger, misinterpretations, headaches, feelings of anxiety and/or urgency. Aconite Napellis (homeopath) helps us to remain poised & patient. Knowledge helps us immensely too. Knowledge of these things to come. Mantrams help us to remain spiritual poised too. Standing always at the apex of the triangle, the dualities below.

We stand poised, attending to our daily rhythmic Work & studies in the Ashram. We stand in the upper room, as well as in the Ashram’s garden. We see humanity on the other side of the garden gate seeking the Path of Return. We ask during this Pisces solar festival that we, the NGWS, be prepared to assist humanity in discovering their Path of Return. “Pisces – the saviors of the world, the Light that ends forever the darkness of matter.” In preparation together…love, Risa

Leo Moon, Jupiter (retro) in Leo trine, Uranus in Aries – continuing to understand ourselves, preparing to fully participate in the Aquarian Age – Age of Groups.
Aquarius Ruled by Uranus. Preparing & Adapting.
Monday – March 2, 2015, the Moon’s Day. In Aquarius the Moon veils Uranus.

These are esoteric words that mean….
The Moon protects humanity (unprepared humanity) from the fires of Uranus.
Uranus breaks things down, unexpectedly, without preparation we can be shocked.
However, there is a rhythmic timing to everything.
Humanity must begin to prepare for the upcoming changes.
We are moving rapidly from the Piscean Age (Ray 6) to the Aquarian Age (Ray 7).

The energies of the two ages (one waning, one waxing) are very different.
We must begin to adapt to the new Uranian energies.
We adapt best through Knowledge.
Uranus brings things about quickly, unexpectedly, without warning.
Knowledge helps us understand these unexpected changes.

The Chart Today
Jupiter in Leo (see 5th house.
Uranus in Aries (see 1st house)
Pluto in Capricorn (see 10th house).
Moon in Leo (see 5th house – house of Self-knowledge through creativity).

2015
We are in a very important year, filled with opportunities.
And expansion (Jupiter in Leo). Expansions in our self-identity preparing
us for Group Work (the work of creating the new culture & civilization in Aquarius).

Herd/Group
As we are in the Chinese Year of the Goat, we must FIND OUR HERD (group).

Self-Identification
In the past days I have asked readers to “self-identify.”
To think about, observe, write down gifts, talents, abilities.
The Leo Aspect of ourselves.

Today is Leo moon.
The Leo moon today connects with many planets –
Saturn, Neptune, Mars, the sun, Venus, Uranus, Jupiter & Pluto.
It’s important to identify one’s gifts. We come to know ourselves better.
Like “found object” glittering in the sand.

Jupiter in Leo –Jupiter now calls us to an expansion of the self, knowing the self through our creative talents & gifts. Jupiter is Ray 2 – Love/Wisdom.
We come to love ourselves & to know the ways in which we are “wise.”

Jupiter Trine Uranus
Tomorrow is the 2nd Jupiter (in Leo) trine Uranus in Aries.
Both Aries & Leo are concerned with self-identity.
Aries is simply the fact that “I Am. I Exist.”
Leo is the face of “I come to know myself through what I create.”
Only after we identify our gifts can we adequately –
1. Serve the world
2. Fully enter & participate in groups with equanimity & poise
3. Enter the New Group of World Servers

Jupiter & Uranus are the planets that rule (work with, precipitate, bring down, etc. ) Aquarius & the Aquarian Age along with the Aquarian Laws & Principles.
Aquarius (along with the Soul) rules Groups.
Aquarius is Group oriented – it is humanity as a World Group.
Aquarius is the sign of Service, of Serving.
(As Pisces is the sign of “saving.”
We have 2,500 years of Aquarius (the Age) ahead.
We are the forerunners of this new age.

Thus our preparations of self-identification these past days.
Humanity is a Group, but each of us within the Group called Humanity must begin to identify individually first – through our gifts & talents.

Jupiter in Leo – expanding the individual, coming to love of self & wisdom.
Uranus in Aries – creating the new archetypes, the new rhythms on Earth
In the Age of Aquarius – humanity serving one another as identified World Disciple.
Astrology, the language & tool of Aquarius helps each of us identify the self
Then it helps us understand the individuals in our Group.
And the Group itself, under heavenly timing.

Three times they trine – Jupiter/Uranus (expansion of Group Consciousness)
Sept. 25, 2014 –
March 2, 2015
June 22, 2015

Let us observe these three charts of Jupiter/Uranus.
These transits ask us to identify ourselves first as individuals with gifts, then to expand out & identify with our Groups & as the Group called Humanity. We then identify, in service, with the New Group of World Servers.

Jupiter in Leo (expanding the recognition of our selves as creative creators)
Trine – harmonizing.

Jupiter/Uranus
The Jupiter/Uranus transit informs us that the old forms are dying, as the new archetypes are attempting to come forth.
As the last Uranus/Pluto square (March 16th – transforming our world) comes forth, Jupiter/Uranus both precedes it & comes after it.

Jupiter & Uranus – the heart of Aquarius –
Jupiter, the Love, Uranus the change.
We understand these things as we study them together.

Uranus helps humanity take the 1st Initiation (rhythmic awakening to self).
Birth is the 1st Initiation – physical. (2nd Initiation, Baptism – waters/emotions. 3rd Transmutation – the Light within, 4th Crucifixion – death. 5th Resurrection).
Humanity stands on the Threshold of this 1st Initiation (Birth into Consciousness, Awareness). Worldwide.
Jesus, born in Bethlehem – House of Bread – 1
Bread – another word for money = 1st Initiation – economic conditions.
This 1st Initiation also focuses upon the Economic situation of the world.

Adaptation – what humanity must learn.
Hierarchy uses externalization.
Humanity uses process of adaptation.
The Rays come into the planes (devas).
Rays come into the levels/planes of our bodies.
As they come in we must learn adaptation.
Through adaptation, we Change.
Uranus is Ray 7 – it comes in unexpectedly.
Breaking down all hindrances to the Working with the Soul.
Uranus tells us we “either bend (adapt) or we break.”
Thus we learn to adapt to the new energies coming in.
The study & knowledge of astrology assists us with this.
We have poise (Libra) as we adapt to the Razor’s Edge of Change.
Uranus is the Soul ruler of Libra.

We absorb these many teachings.
From the College Ashram classroom.
Learning & applying what we learn together
in our daily lives.

Lead us O Lord from darkness to Light
From the Unreal to the Real
From Death to Immortality
From Chaos to Beauty.

Astrology (study, understanding, application) allows for the rhythmic ongoing beauty of life…its structure & organization to penetrate our lives. Love, Risa
