Transiting Mars & the US Chart
Look at the USA chart & find the transiting Mars on the Gemini Asc. & on Uranus. The next two weeks could be eventful, anything can happen w/ Uranus & Mars. Uranus brings forth all that is hidden. Ray 1 (the Light) into Ray 7 (revealing all that is hidden). More & more light on the Earth. More Light shown on the Dweller of the US. The natal Uranus is the Soul ruler of the US Saturn. Mars brings tests, reorientations – revealing the Dweller (Libra, Saturn) of the US. Sex, money, & the Law (all corruption in our country revealed). South Node in Scorpio also brings more revelations to light. With Mars stationing & going direct, we should we well on our way to the purification of our country. White Hats working! Uranus relates to the 10th house of the US. There we see transiting Saturn (Dweller on one side, Angel of the Presence on the other side). More revelations.

Meditation Today – our Visualization
Diamond Light Center – the Ajna Center.
The eye of the bull twinkles in the darkness, the lion walking around & maiden creating garlands. The Jewel of the serpent is seen. The eye of the bull is the central star of Taurus..The star is Rohini – Aldebaran – in the center of the forehead, twinkling in the darkness. The Adept is the lion, a pulsating principle, Hamsa.
The light moves up & down. Centering at the point in the middle of the Cross.
The light is the 3rd eye, the Ajna, having accomplished the task of the heart. 3/4 of the journey is accomplished. From Muladhara to Anahata. Four chakras become four lotuses. The heart lotus is a 12 petalled lotus, 4 layers, 3 petals each in golden light. The body is transformeed to meet greater tasks on the Journey. The targekt of the bulls eys twinkles in the darkness. We are to grip the light in the darkness, duality, maya, illusion, misunderstandings, misperceptions. Duality is two sides of one principle. They find their agreement in the center. The hunter chooses the golden miccle principle where the twilnkling light is. Lord Kirshna said Yoga is the golden middle path. Walk thru the darkness of duality. See the twinkling light above in the center of the forehead. Like the elephant walks, w/ dog barking, yet the elephant moves on thru the duality, likes/dislikes, pride/jealousy, right/wrong.
The Disciple walks the Path, crosses over the bridge of duality, from Anahata to Vissudi – life beyond duality. Then nature garlands the Disciples, from back of throat to the head. Five lotuses, different petals – 4 6 10 12 16 48 the petals of the five chakras from V to M. 48 letters, then 49 (7×7). This was an earlier meditation. 48 49 90 100 – from V to Ajna there is a further journey for the Seeker. Garlanded, there is abundant cooperation from the purity within.
Purity is needed to accomplish Vissudi – the quality of neutralized duality. Light then in greater measure approaches. The seeker reaches the tip of the pituitary at the brow. Above is the bulls eye, great light. Betwen the two is an abyss.
The grace of the Jewel of the Serpent descends & pulls the Seeker up. Seeker must wait. No demands. Daily rythms are completed. The light descends from the jewel, building bridge from Ajna to pituitary. Light rays solidify. Bridge is built. Hunter walks to reach the 3rd Eye, the Ajna, the Diamond Light. Jewel of the serpent graces the Seeker. Hunter garlanded.

California Storm
Winds in Santa Cruz. Lots of trees down.
More rain expected. Many have no power.
Staging area of PGE at the outdoor theatre to go out to restore power. Graham Hill flooded at Mt. Herman. Felton Grove under water. Hwy 17 is open. When 17 is closed, less people on the road. Various mountain roads closed. It stopped raining just in time for the rivers not to get too bad. In ’82, the problem with so many trees going down, it dams up the river. Log jams cause flooding. This caused town of Soquel to flood. Many neighborhoods on warning. Log jam at Harvey West. Levy overflowed in Watsonville. It was very stressful wondering if the river would flood the house. A little bit of blue sky this morning.
It’s not raining now but looking to the west, sky is really dark. More rain coming today, tomorrow & rest of the week (lighter showers). Town of Montecito (Santa Barbara) was told to evacuate. Los Angeles, still raining.

Solar Weather – X-flare yesterday.
Keep up with both planetary & solar weather.
Monitoring solar weather, how it affects our emotional fields.
Active sun spot now on the Sun. Lots of sun spots.

Loving all the kingdoms & the elements – power of the waters. All the elements are powerful. Water especially. The power of the elements. With all the rain in CA….thoughts on the potency of the elements which make up our creation.

So much to read, learn, integrate, understand, ponder upon.
Om Risa

A new week has begun.
In a new year.
A play coming to Santa Cruz, CA – Little Heart (Corita).

Today is Monday, January 9, 2023.
Leo moon, Capricorn Sun. Mars & Mercury retrograde but soon to turn direct.
We remain on the mountaintop in the Light Supernal.
“Lost are we in Light Supernal, knowing that at the end of Capricorn, we will turn our backs on this light, walk back down the mountain, enter Aquarius to serve humanity & Pisces to save humanity.” The Light of Capricorn is the Light of Initiation. The Light of Capricorn a Refuge for Disciples.

The 1st Initiation for humanity, which is the 3rd Hierarchical, is when humanity is able to recognize the Soul.
Each day, beginning at Winter Solstice, the light of the Sun increases. Light of the Solar pole.

The solar pole advances – day increases, night decreases.
The hunter walks thru the higher bridge, the solar pole advances towards him. The Soul advances in slow degrees. This is what i smeant by “day increases.” Night is shadow, day is light. The light of the Soul has its shadow. The light of man is Wisdom. The shadow of light is ignorance. We must rise up from ignorance. Dark is never annihilated. The high 12 of Pythagoras, like the piercing light of an equinox day.

The hunter is at the equator. At 12 noon at spring equinox, the shade is at the feet of man. Personality is at minimum. The Soul is maximum. The Teachers rejoice – cosmic, planetary. The virgins sing – the subtle body of golden diamond light.
The Soul’s touch makes the bodies of man unimpeded, the force of life moves like galloping horses, the waters within the body of man spring forth, the plexus. The centers of light in the body are the gods – head center to Muladhara – in cosmic solar & cosmic planes. Top of head is cosmic. from Ajna to heart is spiritual. From diaphram to base, planetary. Three centers.

The entire body is pervaded by gods (devas). Light beings, creator builder beings. They are active. In the light, the body’s tissues vibrate w/ virginity (purity). Life & light move unopposed in the body when the Soul infuses the physical body of the man. The Sun advances, day increases, night decreases, waters spring up. Om Om Om

Rains/Storms in CA/Santa Cruz/Big Sur area
The rains continue in California – the rivers, lakes & streams are overflowing. The waters flowing so swiftly. Very intense with storm after storm. Rivers breaching flood stages (there are multiple flood stages). San Lorenzo river reaching flood stage. Big winds in the mountains. Trees down.
Staging areas (police, fire trucks, big lights, etc.) now at the Flea Mkt. area. Santa Cruz mountains to receive 6-9 inches today. To hit by 3pm. Big Trees on flood watch. Evacuation warnings on the Monterey side of the Pajaro River. Power out in Ben Lomond. Generators breaking down. The last storm hit the coast. This storm to hit the mountains. The forests are closed in SC County. Eureka Canyon, Highland Way – closed due to trees down & flooding. Roads not accessible. Winds high. Careful everyone.

In the 60s I attended Immaculate Heart College. I was an art major in the art department. My teacher, mentor was Sister Corita, a profound change maker/teacher in the world of consciousness & the arts. And so….

Little Heart – a play
A play is coming to Santa Cruz – called Little Heart – the story of Corita (Little Heart) Kent, artist & teacher in the Art Dept. of Immaculate Heart College. Written by playwright Irene O’Garden. Director is Susan Myers. At the Jewel Theatre in Santa Cruz.

Poem Today – Sunday, January 8, 2023.
It’s two weeks since Christmas.
Fourteen days. A two-week anniversary.
I am posting a Nativity poem today.
(Historically at this time Joseph & Mary & the baby are on their way to Egypt, to protect the holy child. They remain there will Jesus is twelve).
A Nativity poem.
For some, Christmas lasts till February 2, Candlemas day.
It is said in the bible on that day the child was baptized & Mary entered into a purification (Mikva) process after giving birth.
So for some the Christmas tree is still up & lit each evening.

Now & Events To Come
After Christmas & Capricorn, we have Aquarius & Valentine’s day, & Chinese new year, then Pisces, then Aries, then the Three Spring Festivals, including Wesak which we began preparations for with the Hierarchy at Winter Solstice. In the meantime we have retrogrades & stationing direct of the planets, the new & full moon festivals, & all of life in between.

Capricorn Sun & Mercury (conversation about the government)
Capricorn Sun & Mercury. Leo Moon. Mercury retro trine Uranus in Taurus (change continuing in our Constitutional Republic government – investigations begin tomorrow looking into high crimes & misdemeanors, the evidence will speak for itself), Venus in Aquarius, Mars retro in Gemini, Jupiter in Aries. Tomorrow the House GOP gets to work. After a deliberate process of dialogue & discipline, conversations that made the Rep stronger. (the border plan by the false prez is a joke).

Here is the Nativity poem.

Nativity Poem
by Joseph Brodsky (Nobel Prize, 1987, US Poet Laureate, 1991)
(poem translated by Seamus Heaney)

Imagine striking a match that night in the cave:
Imagine crockery, try to make use of its glaze
To feel cold cracks in the floor, the blankness of hunger.
Imagine the desert – but the desert is everywhere.
Imagine striking a match in that midnight cave,
The fire, the farm beasts in outline, the farm tools and stuff;
And imagine, as you towel your face in the enveloping folds,
Mary, Joseph, and the Infant in swaddling clothes.
Imagine the kings, the caravans’ stilted procession
As they make for the cave, or, rather, three beams closing in
And in on the star, the creaking of loads, the clink of a cowbell;
(No thronging of Heaven as yet, no peal of the bell
That will ring in the end for the infant once he has earned it).
Imagine the Lord, for the first time, from darkness, and stranded
Immensely in distance, recognizing Himself in the Son
Of Man: His homelessness plain to him now in a homeless one.

Who is Brodsky?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Brodsky

Look at Brodsky’s chart.
Look at the map of the Journey to Egypt.
Mary & Joseph & the baby traveled south & then west.
I wonder what town they lived in in Egypt? 

The Crown is Magic.
Castor & Pollux, the two brothers are sitting still next to the
moon in the night sky.
And we have a Speaker of the House (after 15 ballots).
McCarthy believed in the process of dialogue & discussion.
In the U.S. we live in a Constitutional Republic.
The ways the Speaker of the House was elected provided us with an example of the freedoms in our country.
The U.S. is an experiment in freedom.

Today is Saturday, Ray 3 – Divine Intelligence day.
Saturn is the Lord of Karma, the Dweller on the Threshold, then the Teacher.
Saturn is the ruler of Capricorn.
Capricorn is the Gate of Return (back to Spirit).

Today, Capricorn Sun, Cancer moon. Sun/Mercury in Capricorn.
A v/c occurs from 2:23pm till 6:40pm. Then the moon enters Leo.
Mars & Mercury continue to be retrograde.
Mars stations direct (8 degrees Gemini) January 12th.
Mercury stations direct (8.19 degrees Capricorn) January 18th.

The Disciple becomes King by establishing the law, offering the Light of Wisdom. This creates the healing of sickness.
The King, always ruling with love, light & the law.
A throne is offered on the Path of Light.
The Hunter sits on the throne.
The throne is offered due to acts of Goodwill conducted for humanity’s benefit, the grace showered on the king from the head lotus of thousand petals – grace of divine works thru via healing teaching & establishing the law.
Linked up to the Crown Lotus – a service of God.
He is decorated with a crown.
The Lord in the fellow beings inspired them to offer the crown. This is the play of the Lord the rod, throne & crown.
The Lord glorifies the King who remains humber grateful serviceable.
This crown is Magic, Magus, Maha, Maga, the Ruler.

Maga, Maha, Magus, the 10th of the 27 constellations.
Magical power flow thru the crown.
Maga, Magus, the most renowned constellation in Leo.
See Isis Unveiled by Blavatsky.
God made man in his own image & likeness.
We are the king in our own lives.
We are princes of our Father in heaven.

We were light that tumbled into the mundane world.
Then we became sons of man. For eons of time, we live in the world, we discover limitations. We become hungry for truth liberation, seeking light in the darkness.
Then the dog star meets us – the Dog Star, Sirius.
This is the teacher. The teacher seeks the student.
And the journey onto the Divine Path begins.
This is the Path of Yoga, the Path of Discipleship.
Then the sons & daughters of man becomes the Sons
& Daughters of God.
He is the prince. The Father is the King.
Crown of Magus gained. Kingdom regained.
Om Om Om

The Great Invocation (1936)
