Today is June 4, 2025 – Wednesday, Mercury’s (4) day.
Reading from Externalization of the Hierarchy (blue book).
Preparing each day to be present awake & aware at the Gemini Solar Festival (at the time of the full moon) next Wedneday (around midnight).**
Today, Wednesday – Ray 4 day – seeing (with the Soul’s eyes), the beauty in all things, the harmony seeking to be revealed, the urge to balance opposing tendencies, the Art of Living.
At some point for each of us, as we study here what is posted – the astrology, both personality & esoteric astrology (influences from constellations, signs, planets, stars, etc.), as we integrate the idea, reality & fact of the Seven Rays (stars in the Big Bear – Ray 1) & Sirius (Ray 2)& the Pleiades (Ray 3) (stary of Alcyone, Earth’s star) & their influences, we begin to “sense” in the self & others, the energy of the specific Rays.
Thus in all that I write here, I add the numbers which are the Rays & over time, we integrate this information. We don’t need to memorize, We just over time integrate it into our minds & hearts & bodies. Each day, the posting is also a meditation.

Ray 4.
And so, today, Wednesday, is ruled, governed, protected and directed by Ray 4 (Harmony at the heart of conflict & chaos).
This is the purpose – seeking harmony, for discussion, seeking common ground, communicating, listening, ambassadorship – using Goodwill, creating Right Human Relations in all of our interactions, personal & national.

Sun & Jupiter in Gemini (2).
Moon (4) entered Libra (3) this morning at 6:38am (PT).
Libra Moon & Gemini Sun/Jupiter.
Air signs. Communication signs.

Moon traveling today opposes Saturn & Neptune, & trines Pluto.
In depth transformative feelings felt today.

This evening Venus (5) sextiles (2 signs apart) Jupiter (2) (Aries/Gemini).
A friendly intelligent & loving evening tonight.

Tomorrow, Venus (5) enters its home sign of Taurus (4).
The Art of Living becomes apparent. We seek beauty.
Friday is VERY complex, multilayered, multifaceted.
the moon is busy making contact w/ the planets.

Sunday is Pentecost, Mercury (4) joins Jupiter (2) & Mercury later enters Cancer (1/3). The conversations, the subject of our conversations change from Gemini (2) to Cancer (3).

Next Wednesday is the Gemini (2) solar festival.
What happens then?
Here is information from the blue books (Externalization of the Hierarchy) on the Gemini Festival.
Each day, ’til next Wednesday we are preparing to be present to the Gemini energies & to the Christ standing in for humanity. We stand with Him. Preparing the Way for humanity & for the Reappearance.

From Ext. Hier. beginning at page 439.
At the time of the June Full Moon, the Hierarchy, under the guidance of the Christ, will let loose this will-to-good upon humanity, producing seven great results, according to the seven subrays of this first Ray of Will or Power:
1. Power will be given to the disciples of the world and the initiates among men, so that they can direct efficiently and wisely the coming process of rebuilding.
2. The will-to-love will stimulate the men of goodwill everywhere so that hatred will gradually be overcome and men will seek to live together cooperatively. This will take some time, but the inner urge is there and subject to stimulation.
3. The will-to-action will lead intelligent people throughout the world to inaugurate those activities which will lay the foundation for a new, better and happier world.
4. The will-to-cooperate will steadily increase also. Men will desire and demand right human relations – a result more general than that produced by the activity of the first three aspects of this ray, but which will be a natural outcome of this activity.
5. The will-to-know and to think correctly and creatively will become an outstanding characteristic of the masses. Knowledge is the first step towards wisdom.
6. The will-to-persist (which is an aspect of devotion and idealism) will become a human characteristic – a sublimation of the basic instinct of self-preservation. This will [441] lead to a persistent belief in the ideals presented by the Hierarchy, and the demonstration of immortality.
7. The will-to-organize will further a building process which will be carried forward under the direct inspiration of the Hierarchy. The medium will be the potency of the will-to- good of the new group of world servers and the responsive goodwill of mankind.

I have expressed in these few simple terms the results of the planned determination of the two Great Lords which must take shape and emerge at the time of the May and June Full Moons.
Also DK ended this section with this paragraph…

(p.445):
May He Whom we all love and serve, the Master of all Masters and the undying Friend of Mankind shed His light upon your way and evoke your trust, your understanding and your help in His task – climaxing this year – of leading humanity into the light of a new day.
And now we know more & are more prepared.
