Libra (3) moon today, Sunday, July 19, 2026.
Time for rest & contemplation, for harmonizing & balancing the past week, in order to prepare for our new upcoming week.

Upcoming (Monday & Tuesday).
Jupiter aligns with Neptune, Pluto, (tomorrow)
Jupiter aligns with Sun & Uranus (Tuesday) –
All at 4 degrees Leo, Aries, Aquarius, & Gemini.
Where are these signs, planets, degrees in everyone’s charts?

Reminding me of the song “Aquarius” from the 5th Dimension – the song from Hair (musical, first performed Oct. 17, <Libra> 1967).
Lyrics:
“When the moon is in the Seventh House.
And Jupiter aligns with Mars.
Then peace will guide the planets.
And love will steer the stars
This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius.”

Jupiter’s transits Monday & Tuesday.
Potent expansive beneficent radical transformative energies streaming into the Earth.
And so knowing this, we prepare for the next two days.
Contemplating these energies.
Preparing ourselves today to observe all events that may happen & to maintain a calm quiet interior & exterior.
We prepare today.
Preparations always begin first with information & knowledge..

Jupiter expands everything. It’s Ray 2 of Love/Wisdom.
The energies are neutral as they enter our Earth.

How we receive the energies each day (react, respond, observe, thus work with etc.) depends upon our state of awareness (or unawareness) as to how they affect us.

Knowing the transits (movements of Sun/moon/planets), we then can WORK WITH THEM. They become our friends.
Not knowing the transits, we are CONTROLLED BY THEM.
Notice the choice we have.
Notice why it is good to study & know astrology – on a daily basis. As each day is different.

Jupiter (Ray 2) expands everything – with love that underlies all realities & events of our times).
Uranus (in Gemini) suddenly shifts breaks down shatters everything.
Neptune (in Aries) dissolves & refines everything. New self identity appears.
Pluto (in Aquarius) simply transforms everything so the fact of the new era of Aquarius is accelerated.
Jupiter is at the heart of Aquarius.

All of this occurring so humanities awareness of the new era of Aquarius (our Sun’s entrance into Aquarius) is accelerated.

Our Sun’s entrance into Aquarius (for the next 2,500 years) creates the new atmosphere, the new era, the new Age of Aquarius.

Profound Times
The the times we are in are profound – Not all of humanity is witness to the entrance of Earth, the Sun & our world into a New Age. The last time we entered a New Age was 0 AD. When Jesus was born in a stable in Bethlehem. When the Pisces Age began. Christianity was born then too. 500 years later the Roman Empire fell. And we entered into the Dark Ages.
We are now 2026 years later. At the very beginning of a New Age.

Aquarius offers humanity different energies than the swiftly disappearing Pisces Age (2/6).

The Astrology Today.
We are in our last days of Cancer Sun –
On Wednesday, our Sun enters Leo – signs of courage & strength & coming from the heart of the matter. Leo is the opposite sign to Aquarius (waters of life for thirsty humanity)

Today, we rest & prepare for Jupiter in potent conversations with the outer planets (all at 4 degrees). So subtle – yet when our lives change. love, Risa

Aquarius – the Sun entering more deeply into the atmosphere & architecture of the sign of Aquarius – the New Age) –
The New Age (each age) lasts for for 2,500 years.
The new era of Aquarius has just begun.
We are in the 500 years of its preparation & the withdrawing of that which is no longer needed from the Pisces Age.

And because of this- there is a battle, a crisis, and a choice for humanity (individually & within each nation, culture, life wave.

Note: Some in humanity will choose NOT to enter the new era.
They will be the “dawdlers, the fall behinds, the idlers, the laggards” – out of step with the new era’s tasks, purpoises, freedoms, liberations, vibrations & Rays.

***Solitude – its Value to the Disciple & the Master.
Solitude – developing the Gift of Solitude.
Solitude – the Rose of the Soul Flourishes.
One of the primary conditions a disciple must cultivate, in order to sense the Plan and be useful for the Hierarchy & by the Master, is SOLITUDE.
In Solitude the Rose of the Soul flourishes.
In Solitude the Divine Self can speak.
In Solitude the Faculties and the Graces of the Higher Self can take Root and Blossom in the personality.

In Solitude the Master can approach and impress upon the quiescent Soul the knowledge that He seeks to impart, the lesson that must be learned, the method and plan for work that the disciple must grasp. (the disciples Purpose comes forth here).
In Solitude the SACRED SOUND is heard.

The Great Ones (Hierarchy) have to work (hard to pierce) through human instruments (personalities of individuals).

The Plan and Vision (& instructions) are much handicapped by failure on the part of these personality instruments (to not be in Solitude & not understand the value & purpose of Solitude. .
A Treatise on White Magic p. 132.
Rule 4 Regarding Sound.

Thus when finding ourselves in Solitude, we understand it, value it, live peaceably within it, & offer our gratitude for it. love, Risa

Religion – Buddhist Holiday & Festival.
Day in which we recognize when Buddha, after his enlightenment, delivered his first sermon – & offered the Four Noble Truths.
Drukpa Tsheshi (words signifying a festival date – a date in the Tibetan calendar when something profound occurred).

Recognizing the profound moment when Gautama Buddha delivered his first sermon after achieving enlightenment.
Observed on Saturday, July 18, 2026, this auspicious day marks the ‘Setting of the Wheel of Dharma in Motion.
Where Buddha articulated the Four Noble Truths.
We reflect on these teachings.

The United States was founded by the Hierarchy. To be the first country based on freedom & liberty. The Founders were influenced by Count St. Germain (the Hierarchy’s Teacher for the Western mind) to think in terms of Freedom, Sovereignty & Liberty – as All Minds Are Created (to be) Equal.
And so…
How & why (reasons for) the Roman Empire Fell.
Understanding & contemplation on the fall of Rome & then turning to our country, the United States & what seeing what is occurring here – the demonizing of the OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT (conflating his personality with the OFFICE). Destructive ignorant thinking.

Last night (on the anniversary of the death of JFK, Jr.), July 16, 2026, the U.S. President gave an address to the nation on election integrity, security & vulnerabilities in our electron process.

Major networks refused to carry his speech.
Further examples of destructive demoralizing of our country, our government & our people. A most dangerous state our country is in. And it is due to corrupt political controlling factors (controlled by the forces of darkness, Atlantean forces of evil) & ignorance (ignorant minds of today are like the relentless barbarian invasion that destroyed the Roman Empire).

The destruction of the United States has been planned by the F/Darkness (penetrated all level of government & eduction in our country) for decades. Beginning with creating ignorance (breakdown of true education) in the minds of the young ones. And in the minds of the people, especially the intellectuals.

This ignorance as to the Rule of Law, the Constitution, the founding of our country, true history, the lack of the ability to Think, the entrainment of false information in our young ones along with lack of knowledge, respect, morality & ethics all lead a people and a country falling into destruction & death of a country.
Note: The Hierarchy was behind the founding of the United States. One of the Hierarchy, Count St. Germain was part of the U.S. founding. He influenced the thinking of the founders of the U.S. to think in terms or Freedom & Liberty.

What destroyed the Roman Empire:
The Roman Empire fell due to a cascading mix of political corruption, economic crises, and relentless barbarian invasions. The crucial turning point came when the empire was split into two halves. While the Eastern half thrived, the Western Roman Empire collapsed in 476 CE (AD) when its last emperor was deposed.

Political Corruption, Invasions and Migrations:
There was internal political corruption, all vying for power, thus politicians bribed & bought power.
Invasion of Germanic tribes (lVisigoths and Vandals) and the Huns, eventually leading to the infamous sacks of Rome in 410 CE and 455 CE.
At the fall of the Roman Empire, the Dark Ages began – from the 5th to 14th Century.

Fall of the Roman Empire
The Roman Empire lacked clear rules – No Rule of Law.
Unlike the US w/ its Constitution & Bill of Right & unlike our present day modern government that relies on elections & clear rules for passing power to family members, the Roman Empire never established a fixed way to choose new emperors. This lack of rules meant ambitious generals and politicians could simply seize control by force.

Today is Friday – Venus’s Day – Ray 5 day of Truth & Concrete Knowledge & Science (real & true science, not made up science for political gain or political control).
We are beginning a cascade of potent energies precipitating from the heavens to the earth. The outer planets – Pluto, Neptune, Uranus, via Jupiter (a bowl of energy) – making contact with Jupiter which further expands their potent force & energy.
It is important to know this & to make decisions as to how we will respond (not react) to these potent energies.

Planetary Actors involved:
Pluto’s (Ray 1 – destruction, creation) relentless tranformations.
Neptune (Ray 6) dissolving things, confusing things, refining things.
Uranus (Ray 7, anchoring the new rhythms, archetypes) suddenly changing things.
Jupiter (Ray 2) expanding it all – leading all of humanity, after 2,500 years of Pisces, into the new era of Aquarius.
Shifting from Rays 2/6 to Rays 5/2/7.
From mysticism to the occult. From devotion to knowledge.

We need to form communities to help & support one another in this major shift of the ages.

The Astrology Today.
Virgo Moon – Sun/Mercury in Cancer.
Uranus trine Pluto tonight – Gemini (Ray 2) & Aquarius (5/2/7).
Transformative & sudden change occurring in our world for everyone.
Note: please no speculating, making wild unfounded comments,
no opinions, judgments or criticisms.
Observation is needed instead. love, Risa
