And so…questions.
What words are we saying? What words are we hearing?
What words are we listening to?
Words – Mercury.

Wednesday’s are Mercury days.
Today is September 18, 2024 – in our last days of summer.

Today, Wednesday – Mercury guards and guides the day.
Mercury – Ray 4 – harmony seeking to emerge from disharmony, conflict & chaos.
Mercury – our magical tool, being able to think & use words.
Mercury – words can be destructive and destroy.
And words can create, uplift, make things better.
The language being used by one side of humanity these days is so destructive that it is activating people to kill other people.
Destructive words, language destroys.
I listen to the words of 1/2 of our humanity & I see the outcome.
The words by the false media & by the entrained (mind controlled) are dehumanizing.
The words used by the false media & echoed by the mind controlled are a major part of a powerful propaganda machine, painting the true prez and his supporters as bigoted, hateful, unreasonable, deplorable, dangerous and deranged. These words demonstrate a pathology as they engineer civil unrest, incite rage & division.
This is the pathology of evil & of hate.
The more divisive, the more contemptuous, the more hateful, the more inflammatory the political rhetoric, the more the stage is set for violence against those who do not agree with those who are entrained. We listened to the word of HC yesterday. What a sad creature she is, denouncing 1/2 of humanity in our country. Creating a radical tribe of destruction among those who listen to her. The media then presents to humanity these destructive words over & over. And humanity becomes further controlled & entrained. And more killings happen.

Cosmic & elemental forces, the very air around us is affected by the words spoken. Words are magical things. The earth & the heavens were created by “words.” Words can summon the wind!
Can bring down mountains. Words can lead people to destroy other people. We see this in our world today.

Our Part with Words
We are called, as disciples, to be an ally of that which is Good.
Using words that uphold the Good & actually create the Good.
We must look at our motivations & intentions.
And choose the outcome of Good which is based on our use of language.
Actually the RIght Use of Language (which is a divine tool, one only humans have).
We must not drop down to the subhuman way of speaking which denounces half of humanity.
What is occurring is information warfare.
It has passed the line into causting the possibilities of people being destroyed by the words.

When we hear the denouncing & demoralizing of humanity, what is our response, what do we do?
We recognize it, we observe the way we feel when we hear those words spoken. We then look at who believes those words & what the outcomes of the dehumanizing words are.

In the past two months there have been two assassinations attempted. That is the extreme outcome of the dehumanizing words being used in our country today.

Disciples understand the use of thoughts, words & language.
Again we ask ourselves, what words are we speaking?
What words are we listening to?
What words are the right words to use?
For what purpose?

The Astrology Today
Virgo (2/6) Sun, Aries (1/7) Moon – both Mercury ruled.

Mercury (4) is the Soul ruler of Aries.
Mercury is in Virgo! At home in Virgo.

In the heavens, Mercury is opposite Saturn today.
Mercury – the word. Saturn, the Teacher says
“Be careful with words, they are magical tools that have the ability & potency to create & also to destroy. What words are being used in everyone’s lives? What is being said, what do we hear & what are we saying to each other? Day after day?”

Thinking on these things today. love, Risa

Standing in the “cave of the heart.”
In the “dark half of the year….”
Full moon, lunar eclipse, Virgo Solar Festival.
Harvest Full moon tonight. Eclipsed!
Tuesday – September 17, 2024.
The lunar eclipse will be visible from most of North America, all of South America, Europe, all but the easternmost parts of Africa, western portions of Asia and Russia, and parts of Antarctica.

Understanding Virgo – the six pointed star & the three levels of the Madonna – Eve, Isis & Mary.
Today & tonight…
Reciting the Soul Invocation & the Great Invocation today/tonight.
At the time of the full moon –

Standing in Awareness & Dedication.
Reaching up into the Light, bring the light down to meet the needs of humanity.
The Work of the Disciple & the NGWS.

All day today is the Full moon day, solar festival day, eclipse day & evening.
Tuesday, September 17, 2024.
Mars, Ray 6 rules the day.
Virgo is both Rays 2 & 6 –
Love/wisdom & vision, hopes, wishes & dreams.

Today & tonight – our day & night of Dedication.
Lunar eclipse in Pisces, Solar event in Virgo.
A lunar eclipse during a full moon, under the Light of Virgo.
Pisces moon partially hidden. As the moon receives the Light of Virgo. The moon then radiates the Virgo light, even though it’s partially eclipsed, down into the hearts & minds of humanity.

Virgo – the six pointed star, the Temple of Solomon.
Virgo is the mother, hiding both the soul & spirit within her.
Virgo is matter – form & matter. Behind matter is substance, the magical quality which is Divine & filled with intelligence.
We think on those words.

Virgo says – Let form be sought (so we can learn about form in the Mystery school of Earth – for in form & matter we experience life far away from our original home & in our livingness we absorb the light of the Sun & bring that light down & it redeems the Earth & makes it sacred.
We ponder on those words.

Humanity is the Madonna under Virgo.
She says I am the Mother (mater, matter).
Within me is the Holy Child, hidden.
Within me is also the Father & we are One.
There are three of us – Matter/Spirit/Soul.
We are a triangle of Light.
I am the Mother, I am the Child. I am the Father, too.
I, God. I, Matter. Am. We are all three One.
We think on these words.

And so the meditation –

In the Ashram (visualization) during the Meditation, the two lights of Virgo entered the Great Room where all NGWS were gathered. The Light of Form gradually dimmed, as the Light of Christ, the Holy Child, gestating within the Madonna, gradually became brighter and brighter. Our group magnetically gathered around the waxing light.

It seemed important to understand the three levels of Virgo through the Ages – Eve in the Garden of Eden, Isis in Egypt, and finally Mary with Child (the only Virgin with Child in her arms) for our present times. The meditation was focused upon these three aspects/developmental stages of humanity during our involutionary phase (Eve, Isis). And the importance of Mary with Child, an image that introduces us to the beginning of the evolutionary phase.

Understanding the symbols & codes contained in matter and in our religious symbols (veiling spirit, as the Moon veils Vulcan & Neptune), prayers and rituals.
Understanding (uncovering the mysteries) the differences of Virgo on the three crosses:
1. Mutable (cross of experience, building the personality) – adapting to anything, anywhere (Mercury – gathering needed information & experience)
2. Fixed (cross of personality becoming aware of the Soul) – back and forth rhythm – full to empty, full to empty, devotion, seeking (Moon/Vulcan – being forged in the fires of transformation via Vulcan the forger, daily life in upheaval of change)
3. Cardinal (cross wherein the personality & Soul fuse & blend, one is a Soul centered personality) – nourishing & caring, healing & serving (Jupiter, Ray 2 of Love/Wisdom)

The entrance into the ‘cave of the heart”, the gestation process of Virgo, which is also the beginning of the “dark half of the year” when we, like the tasks of Virgo, assimilate, systematize, order and organize the information from the Light half of the year. As we enter the ‘cave of the heart” we prepare with intention for Winter Solstice.
