St. Lucy is the patron saint of vision, of the eyes, of seeing.
We pray to St. Lucy to grant Matthew the gift of sight.
That he may see clearly once again.
And see the beauty of what he hears that is all around him.
Om Shanti Shanti Shanti.

Today is Lord Krishna’s birthday.
He came from the musical planet of Neptune, via Venus to the Earth. He came from the planet of love & devotion, Ray 6 planet, the color of sky blue, rose blue. Thus in paintings his skin is blue. He was called the “blue boy.”

A perfected body of supra-cosmic energies was created for Krishna to inhabit when on Earth. When he left the earth he left this energetic body for the Lord Maitreya (Christ in the Aquarian Age) to use. Jesus is the reincarnation of the Spirit of Krishna. Krishna was born in the Age of Taurus. Christ used his etheric body when appearing in the Age of Pisces.

Krishna was born August 19, 3228. Date of Birth. Time : 00:00 A.M. Lord Krishna lived 125 years, 09 months & 07 days.
Date of Death : 18th February 3102 B.C.

When Krishna was 89 years old; the mega war (the Kurukshetra) took place. The death of Krishna was the beginning of the Kali Yuga which we are still in, advancing as we are into deeper & deeper darkness.

Work of the NGWS
Disciples are called at this time to do three things – develop the Powers of the Mind (higher Mind, infused with the Light of the Soul – Divine Mind, Logoic Mind).

By bringing the divine beings to our mind, they give us their presence. With their subtle bodies they fill the space around us and give us the power to conduct activities of good will. They hope that we join them to fulfil the divine Plan.

1. the Power to work with thought substance – develop thinking, clear thinking free from the thrall of glamours, mayas, illusions.
2. develop the intuition – this is the Rain Cloud of Knowable Things. It is part of the process of the Soul (whereas instinct is part of the personality).
3. cultivate & develop the Power to heal.

DINA I (page 24 – 28)

The purpose of the NGWS is to unfold in time the three major powers of all illumined minds:

Thought
First: the power to work in and with all thought substance. The Hierarchy of Illumined Minds is a group whose telepathic powers enable them to be sensitive to the mind currents and to register the thoughts of those who personify the Mind of God, the Universal Mind, and to register the thought-forms of those who are as far beyond the Hierarchy of Masters as they, in their turn, are beyond the disciples of the world. . . .

Intuition
Second: the power of the intuition, which is the goal of much of the work which disciples must do, requires the unfoldment of another faculty in man. The intuition is a function of the mind also and, when rightly used, it enables man to grasp reality with clarity and to see that reality free from glamor and the illusions of the three worlds. When the intuition functions in any human being, he is enabled to take direct and correct action for he is in touch with the Plan, with pure and unadulterated fact and undistorted ideas – free from illusion and coming direct from the divine or universal Mind. The unfoldment of this faculty will bring about a world recognition of the Plan and this is the greatest achievement of the intuition in this present world cycle. . . .

Healing.
There is another great mind power which has to be unfolded. It is one which characterizes all liberated souls, no matter what their ray. This is the power to heal. This work is as yet in embryo and the group consciousness is as yet so young and unpolarized that it is needless for me to enlarge upon the possibilities ahead. When men can be trained to be unselfishly and divinely magnetic and radioactive, then there will be poured out upon the world certain divine forces which will vivify and reconstruct, which will eliminate the evil and heal the sick. 
Hitherto the attempts of men in the field of medicine, of healing and of the various forms of therapy have been the result of impulses to respond to these hovering forces, but that is all as yet.

Our work to cultivate…Risa

Geomagnetic Storm, Auroras, Reappearance Medication
& Night Light News is updated –
www.nightlightnews.org/
Also – healing & meditation prayers were posted today.
https://nightlightnews.org/audio/

Audio on NLN
We have the healing meditation (see above) & the Reappearance Meditation (below) posted for people to listen to & join in.

Today – Geomagnetic storms happening.
Yesterday, today & tomorrow.
We may be able to see Northern light at the 35 latitude.
Begin watching this evening.
Sometimes when coronal mass ejection from the Sun which recently happened, sometimes it’s earth directed sometimes it doesn’t. When interact with earth’s field we have a geomagnetic storm. The registration of that is the KP index.

When there’s a geomagnetic storm it creates the northern light. The higher the gm storm, the further the northern lights can be seen lower down into the US. Only the northern latitudes see the northern lights.
We had an M flare yesterday too.

Geomagnetic fields when sun’s energy field meets w/ earth’s magnetosphere, energy field, causing a disturbance = geo magnetic storm. This can occur from coronal mass ejection, from a solar wind, etc. Basically disturbance of earth’s magnetosphere w/ Sun interacts with it.

When this occurs, our physical, emotional & intellectual can be affected. Stomach aches, digestion, headaches, migraines, etc.
Babies & animals & elders can respond in a flash. We all respond differently to a disturbance in the field. The energies affect the chakras. One can see people having meltdowns…we observe these things. We begin first with knowledge of these thing.

Classified as a strong geomagnetic storm will impact the Earth 17th – 19th. Stronger storms, bigger northern lights, the further south they go. When we see the green northern lights – Green, Ray 3 for the Earth. Violet – Ray 7, new rhythms.
Stronger they are, they affect our tele-commnications & all technology. Graphic below – how auroras form.

Reappearance Meditation Day today.
Jupiter’s day today, Ray 2 day, Thursday, August 18, 2022.
“People of Goodwill can come together to make things better.”
We are the people of Goodwill.

Our Reappearance Meditation
Today – our Thursday rhythms.
Night Light News is updated –
And we recite the Reappearance Mantram with the Christ.

Our weekly rhythm – creating a new rhythm upon the Earth.
We join the NGWS – standing with the Christ & the Avatar of Synthesis…

Our Meditation
Standing together under the light of the Group Soul, facing the Christ with intention, dedication & Love, we say Reappearance Mantram together…

Forgetting the things which lie behind,
We will strive towards our highest spiritual possibilities.
We dedicate ourselves anew
To the service of the Coming One
And will do all we can
To prepare men’s minds and hearts
For that event.
We have no other life intention.

We sound the OM three times, dedicating the three-fold personality (triangle of the personality – physical body, emotions, lower mind offered to the triangle of the Soul – Will, Love/Wisdom, Divine Intelligence) to the work of Preparation for the Christ’s Reappearance on Earth.

May the power of the one life
Pour through the group of all true servers.

May the love of the one soul
Characterize the lives
Of all who seek to aid the great ones

May we fulfill our part in the one work
Through self-forgetfulness,
Harmlessness, and right speech.

Om Shanti Shanti Shanti.
Risa

The Kali Yuga
The darkness increases.
And so the battle ensues on our planet Earth.
Between the Forces of Light & the Forces of Dark.
Our brothers on the left hand path.
Both have esoteric wisdom teaching astrological information.
One side uses the teachings for the good.
The other side uses the teachings for evil purposes.
One is the real Light. The other covers itself with a false light.
It’s very difficult to discern the difference.
But that is the test/Test. Which Light/light is the Light of Truth?
And so the battle continues. Earth becoming darker & darker.

The dark forces controlling & manipulating the minds of humanity. Creating a false government, false realities.
This is the Kali Yuga – a time of choice for humanity.
Can humanity discern the true light or follow the darkened path?

The Kali Yuga will go on as long as humanity participates in “divide et impera” (divide with false rule), polarizing which control the instruments of separation.
Disciples are told, taught to stand with the Forces of Light, hold their lamps up high so the Way is not so dark for humanity.
And to lift the self above the dark, standing in the Light with the Great Ones, seeing the underlying unity, so that many others can also be uplifted and stand beyond the dark influences. And stand within the Light.

The Astrology today – Wednesday, Mercury’s day.
Ray 4 day – August 17, 2022
Taurus Moon, South Node in Scorpio (the dark prevails until the call of discipleship is heard & responded to).
Sun in Leo – gathering our gifts, cultivating them to create the new Aquarian Era. Aquarius is the fulfillment of Leo.
Sun (1 & 5 & 2) inconjuncts (5 signs apart, the elements challenge each other on the personality level) Neptune (6) today. What brings the two together are Rays 2 & 6 – the love rays.
Sun illuminates the work of Neptune which is to refine us.
So we may see the truth of the matter, the heart (Leo) of the matter. It takes courage to do this.

We pray for the reversal of fear & darkness. We pray for the reverse of the atomic atoms in our body whereas fear become faith & courage & darkness is transformed into Light. Om Shanti Shanti Shanti….Risa

Within ourselves, All Good Abides.
And the Occult Law of Promotion.
Note: A geomagnetic storm may hit earth this afternoon.
Difficult for humanity’s physical, emotional, mental abilities.
Tuesday today, Mars, Ray 6 day.
Ray 6 – desires, aspirations, visions, hopes, religion, dedication.
Actions – what will we do today? Why & how?
We dedicate (Ray 6) ourselves to acting under the Will to Good, the Will to Love. Then Right Choices are made.

Today…
August 16, 2022 – Aries Moon today.
Initiating new realities.
Leo Sun – cultivating our gifts & talents.
Today the two fires continue.
Till 1:18pm (west coast time) when a moon void of course (the moon resting, not touching any planets) begins – the v/c continuing till the moon enters Taurus, 7:22pm west coast time.
As the moon rests, we rest too.

Voice of the Soul
Often when we listen to the voice of the Soul, our inner voice, we can be dismissed by the outer world. We often have to choose between the revelation of the spirit or the material world & its power. This is a test. We are tested over & over (why the Teacher said to Hercules, in the Labour of Leo, that “the lions & serpents must be slain again and again and even then again.”

The lion of pride, the serpent of jealousy & all the unskillful ways we may use for power over others. We learn to stand alone under Leo, preparing ourselves for leadership. We must have courage, too. And conquer our fear and do always what seems to be the Good.

By occult law, the time of a spiritual promotion/initiation is always accompanied by a material reversal. Thus are the ways of material & spiritual progress. Disciples understand this.

When we meet the tests & are victorious, we are blessed with an increase of wisdom. (Note: we always meet the tests eventually) We become prophets in the land, preparing the Way ahead for humanity.

We become an “Ark of the Covenant” – a spiritual power that we evolve within ourselves. Then within ourselves “all Good abides.”

Thirst & hunger are filled.
Angel of Humility – 
Monday, August 15, 2022.
Aries moon today – Leo Sun.
Aries & Leo are fire signs. Leo is the Burning Ground.
Leo is the light of the Soul. The Soul is our comfort, our healing, our teacher, our direction.
Each day we see the Soul of Matthew bringing him comfort & healing. Allowing Matthew to see, to move his body, to recover fully & completely. Om shanti shanti shanti.

Astrology (personality first, then esoteric/Soul)
Each sign offers us an astrological key to the wisdom teachings.
Keys to the esoteric teachings known only to sages & the ancient Rishis (Seers, Holy Ones).
When we study astrology, our hearts are penetrated with truths and an interior wisdom begins to grow & expand within us, and we become knowledgeable of truths and the Lord of Light ascends over our waters of sorrow. The “serpent power” of regeneration takes hold.

When we approach the world & our lives with the light of esoteric astrological understanding, our “thirst & hunger is filled.” Then the seven spiritual centers within awakens in the etheric body (interpenetrating the physical body) & the powers of the Sun & planets align within us.

And the seven veils & the veil of space are known to us. And then we remain humble in our knowledge and sing a song of thanksgiving. Dante & Virgil in their journey thru Paradise were met by the Angel of Humility and in his wings were heard “Blessed are the grateful…for they shall see heaven.” These are guideposts along the way on the journey “home.” Risa D’Angeles

Temple of Light.
Immaculate Conception – Purified starlit etheric field.
The times preceding Samuel in the old Testament are like our present times now. Who was Samuel?
Today, Sunday, August 14, 2022.
Leo Sun – the light of the Soul.
a v/c in the early afternoon. Moon enters Aries
at 1:43pm (west coast time).

Astrology
Today – Sun opposite Saturn – there’s a structure “over there’ somewhere that we must incorporate into our lives.
Mercury inconjunct Chiron – we hurt today & find a way to heal ourselves.
Mars trine Pluto – (Taurus/Capricorn) – Venus is the ruler of borth.
Trines are harmonious – what we do transforms ourselves & our outer environments – we stand within the Will to Good, Will to Love.

Today is the anniversary of my mother’s birth.
Born August (Leo) 1917 & died March (Pisces) 2014 –

It is also the Feast of the Immaculate Conception.
The Immaculate Conception means one’s etheric field is free of karma, of illusion, of deception, of confusion & of thralldom to the personality & to material things.
The etheric body is that subtle starlight field surrounding the body of all physical things. In this case I am referring to humans.

The Immaculate Conception has several meanings.
It is Mary who was born within the template of purity.
Mary is one of the Masters in the Hierarchy.
Mary, when Jesus was in her womb, constructed the perfect etheric template around the body of Jesus (also a Master in the Hierarchy, the Master of the world Religions).

Esoteric Healing
When we work esoteric with healing those in need, we focus upon the etheric body, purifying it, calling the Soul to nourish the etheric body. Because the physical body takes into itself what is in the etheric body – the body of Light around all forms. Esoteric healing work with the etheric body, helping to create a purified harmonious etheric body around those who are ill & in crisis.

Summer Solstice –
The Immaculate Conception is also created within us as we participate in the new & full moon festivals each year. At summer solstice, the Sun & Moon seeds, in the pituitary & pineal drop into the 3rd ventricle (marriage bed & cradle for the Holy Child – both metaphors) and at the moment of the Summer solstice, a flash of light appears in the heads of disciples. This is a purificatory process & also a process of yearly illumination & enlightenment.

Disciples who understand these mysteries, who participate in the new & full moon festivals (esoteric solar festivals), who study together become harbingers of the spiritual light, a light that shines forth in the darkness of the Kali Yuga.

The Times we are in now
It is as if we are in the times preceding the coming of Samuel (meaning “voice of God/inner voice). That time, like now, was marked with spiritual decadence, the spirit of religion seemed to have fled, untruths flourished & the people were either confused or captured by a spirit of darkness, dark forces (much like now).

There was inertia among the masses, the people lost their ardor for freedom, their luminous faith was lost. And there was no Moses to lift them to the heights, no Joshua to lead them to Jericho, no Deborah to renew their faith beneath the tall palm trees. The people then faltered & returned to the ways of the world, the inner spiritual voice muffled & far away. The world became heavy, dense, opaque.

There was, as now, moral breakdown, warfare, social/political upheaval. Materiality, bestiality engulfed the world. This phase of materiality comes in cycles. Thus was the time before Samuel & the times we are in now. the mother of Samuel was Hannah, a “virgin of light.” Hannah is like Mary. Samuel is like Jesus. Both were harbingers of the Light.

Into such a spiritual crisis Samuel (Judge, Prophet, obedient to the call of Service from God) came, a messenger of the new life & a brighter age. Who is our Samuel in our Age?

Within the invisible Temples of the Wisdom teachings, the Light continues to shine. Only true seekers of the Wisdom can see this light. And within the dim unknown stands God within the shadows, keeping watch over His own. The work we do here, our study, is a Temple of Wisdom, under the Light of the Soul, a facet within the diamond of occultism (development of the Mind) & esotericism (unveiling the secrets). Risa
