Today – Saturday April 18, 2026. Saturn’s day, Ray 3 day.
The color is emerald green, the color of nature. Ray 3, Divine Intelligence. The star in the Pleiades, Alcyone (Al-sigh-oh-nee) embedded substance with intelligence. Alcyone is the star in which our entire solar system revolves. Alcyone is the daughter of the Titan Atlas (who holds up the heavens) And of the ocean nymph, Pleone. Alcyone, one of the 7 stars in the Pleiades, one of the seven sister, who are the brides of the 7 stars or brothers in the Big Bear. Alcyone is the “star of the individual, the star that govern’s humanity’s intelligent gathering of the personality, lifting it up to the Soul.” An intellgent action of awareness & consciousness, a task of becoming the Thinker.
Alcyone, the star, is linked to the word Halcyon – golden days.
Alcyone, in one of the myths, is called the “kingfisher,” a bird that lives both on land & sea – bridging the two.
• Halcyon Days: Legend tells us that the kingfisher (bird) lays her eggs in winter. To protect them, Zeus stills the winds and warms the sea for fourteen days around the winter solstice, now known as the “Halcyon days”.

There is a town called Halcyon on the very edge of California, where land meets the ocean, it’s next to the town called Oceano – in that tiny region of the California (which is ancient Lemurian land), is the community called the Temple of the People a very old Theosophical community, the overseer being Master Hilarion, Ray 5 Master.

Give us your hand, humanity & tread the path with us (NGWS).

Aries Sun, Taurus moon after the new moon today.

Our hands reaching out to humanity.
Reaching into the Light, bringing it down to meet the needs.
The new education is the need now in humanity.

This light flows through the NGWS.
We become the Light of the World – this is the Light of Christ,
~the Light of the Soul.
Radiated upon humanity & the kingdoms.
In the Light of our preparations today, we recite these Mantrams together.

“I am a messenger of Light.
I am a pilgrim on the way of love.
I do not walk alone,
But know myself as one with all great Souls,
And one with them in service.
Their strength is mine.
This strength I claim.
My strength is theirs and this I freely give.
A soul, I walk on Earth.
I represent the ONE.”
(Discipleship in the New Age, Vol. I, p. 140)

“I know the Law, and towards the goal I strive.
Naught shall arrest my progress on the Way.
Each tiny life (devas, solar petries) within my form responds.
My Soul has sounded forth that call, and clearer day by day it sounds.
The glamour holds me not.
The Path of Light streams clear ahead.

My plea goes forth to reach the hearts of men.
I seek.
I try to serve your need.
Give me your hand and tread the Path with me.”
(Discipleship in the New Age, Vol. I, p. 265)

“I strive towards understanding.
Let wisdom take the place of knowledge in my life.”

“We strive towards co-operation.
Let the Master of our life, the Soul,
And the One we seek to serve, the Christ,
Radiate light through us, the NGWS, onto others.”
(Discipleship in the New Age, Vol. II, p. 140)

On this new moon day.
Aries – all things new being created based on need.
The need for the new education.
“There will come a time when the proper education of children, by a system of spontaneous education of choice, similar to the Montessori System, will be made possible.”
— R. Buckminster Fuller, 4D Timelock (1928)
“Every child is born a genius,” and Fuller emphasized that Montessori techniques helped avoid crushing that natural curiosity of the child. Love, Risa
