And so today is Sunday, September 22, 2024.
It’s Autumn Equinox (N. Latitude).
And Spring Equinox (S. Latitude).
The Sun at the equator in Libra – poised for three days.
Inaugurating a new season for humanity.
And a new season of poise & balance & harmony.
We are the Harmonizers.

This morning – we woke up in a new season under the light of Libra (Ray 3 of Divine Intelligence).
Libra – the sign of harmony, balance, Venus ruled.

Contemplation on Autumn Equinox.
Reminder at the equinoxes as the Sun is at the
To stand with Equipoise – with poise within.
Equipoised w/ all that is within & without. A state of observing poise. Physical emotional mental brain Soul, higher mind focused & in alignment. Then we are in complete agreement within the self & our surroundings.

Equipoise – a state of Yoga. All is equalized within. We visualize this. Equipoise = alignment, agreement.

The innermost chamber that holds & balances us is the cerebral spinal column. We live here & it is deep within ourselves.
Spiritual disciples remain within this column. And that which is right is also left, and that which is dark is also the day & the spiritual disciple remains within the middle. Always equipoised.
Thus we experience the bliss of existence.

There is a vertical line to heaven & it is represented by Aries & Libra. Six months on one side, six on the other.
The zodiac arranged in six pairs of opposites equally divided.
The M & F principles equalized. On equinox day & night are equal. When there is equality there is also justice which keeps the balance.

In Lbra (& Sag) we are called to justice which creates balance.
The wise ones always remained n a state of truth & justice. Then nature & spirit are balanced. All opposites complimentary.

On equinox days we see the Earth is friendly.
Justice & love are seen, the Rule of Law is implemented.
All opposing currents are neutralized & friendliness prevails.
Goodwill creating Right Relations & peace & beauty.

Bringing Harmony to Opposing Currents.
When we bring forth harmony to opposing currents, oppositions are neutralized.
This is Ray 4 – harmony emerging from conflicts & chaos. Humanity is Ray 4. Humanity learning harmony via Venus – ruler of Libra – bringing all that separates into a unified loving whole.
Let there be no conflict within.

Teachers only speak of harmony, harmonious dimensions.
They don’t speak of conflicts, arguments, opinions.
They don’t relate to them.
When a student went to see the great Teacher Paramahansa Yogananda – the student spoke of the conflicts in the world.

Paramahansa said to the student….
“To me, I see the world as perfect & beautiful, all working out in divine order, all beings learning in their own developmental stages & processes. Remove the conflict within the self. You can watch the conflict, but don’t relate to it. Relate to the harmony instead which is in your world. And create that harmony. Then we contribute to the permeations of harmony everywhere. Don’t worry about freedom vs. non freedom. This will come in time. See the world as beautiful. Remain in poise.”

When one remains in a state of harmony one is in a state of equipoise. Seers remain beyond conflict. They are always in a state of poise & thus are able to observe conflict.
Not escaping conflict, but just observing it.
Sometimes when we observe conflict it dissolves.

Pythagoras said if two people are in conflict, go to the 3rd person in which they both agree & then they find agreement. A triangle – one can find agreement in a triangle. Two can find conflict, Three can find agreement. When one enters a higher awareness, the lower states become inclusive & agreeable.

On equinox day & enter into a Vision. Have a greater vision.
Stand in the equinox Sun, allowing both hemispheres to have light on both sides. We recollect these things in the spinal column with its seven centers – the seven chakras, light moving up & down from the lowest chakra to the highest, all balanced & each filled with light. The chakras becoming lotuses. From Muladhara to Sahasrara – all balanced.

Each morning as the sun rises, disciples are to stand in the sun.
Being sure the sun touches the forehead, the Ajna diamond light center.
As the sun moves in the sky, the light moves up our central cerebral spinal system & is filled with light.
This is Sun Yoga for students.
The sun rising in the east, reaching a high point, the left & right brains filled with light. Then the sun sets. And then another day begins. The light of the Sun raising itself in the east at dawn. Settling in the west at night.

The disciples sleep.

We concentrate upon this light in the seven centers.
Each day a new day filled with sunlight.
The rising of the sun up the kundalini, the sun traveling in & touching the 7 centers turning to lotuses. Then we move in a column of light, relating to all that is around us, we easily adjust to all that is around. Because we remain poised in vertical levels. This is carried out from equinox onward on a daily basis, also at new & full moons, solstices. Each day.

Initiation Days.
Equinox & Solstice – These are planetary Initiation days.
The dwellers of the planet all stand within this Initiation.
Known or unknown, we all stand together.

And so, as disciples & knowers….we are to relate to these days as Initiation Days.
Equinox & solstice days are Initiations Days.
This is the central theme. Festival days for humanity.
Ancient humanity knew this & thus celebrated. Humanity today has forgotten.

Band of Light
There is a band of light surrounding the earth at all times. We can step into this band of light. We are golden maces – a sacred tool. The head of the mace, the column of the mace. See the light filling the body – this is our daily meditation. Central column filled with light radiating the light out into the body.

Planets
All planetary movements happen in the body – sun moon mercury mars jupiter saturn uranus neptune pluto – the planets move around the Sun. We each are a Sun & the planets are within us.
We gather their light, each light is different & we radiate out this light to the world.
Then we become magnetic to the world.

Regulation Within our Bodies
This is one of the purposes of equinox & solstice.

As the light enters our body, we are recharged with virtue then transformations happen.

This is the Initiation. Setting fire to a vessel so the food is cooked & we find a taste of light & we share this light to others.
Such is the work of disciples at the Equinox & Solstice.

Royal Path
First there is night, then day, then night, then day again.
And disciples sit at the equator, the central column.
‘The equinox is within each of us. And the centers ray out their light. Top to bottom, bottom to top.
This is the Royal Path within us, the Sun’s light passing thru our column. The Sun is the King, the giver. We too are givers. We have descended from the Sun.

State of Yoga & Meditation
The Solstice is a state of meditation, of Yoga.
We recollect this each day. Our head is a cosmic system.
Our bodies part of the planetary system.
We are centered – poised in the Light.
We are calm.

Planet in Prayer
The planet is always in prayer.
We too as disciples are in prayer.
We do not cause any sorrow or pain.
We transmit to our surroundings the light of Equinox.
We radiate that light.
And then all’s well on the Earth.
We are the Harmonizers.
We comfort the people of the earth.
We comfort the people on the earth so the people too become enlightened. This is our planetary service as disciples in the world.
From this autumn equinox onward, we are the Harmonizer.
We enable a releasing of the Earth from its heaviness.
Such is the world of Disciples.

We Are…
There is no hurry – the earth has in her own timing.
Disciples are never discouraged. We just continue to relate to the light. And this day is dedicated to the light of the new season, the Equinox light. And we remain…
The White Magicians. The Adepts.
Lifting up the Earth & her kingdoms to the Kings of Beauty.
Entering a new season in the dark half of the year.
The Festivals of Light begin. love, Risa

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 personality building ruler of Virgo.
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 –
7:35pm (PT); 9:34pm (Central); 10:34pm (EC).

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.
