New Moon Meeting (New York) Friday January 20, 2023
In-person meetings have resumed in our offices at 866 UN Plaza and will continue to be broadcast on Zoom.

“STRENGTHENING THE HANDS OF THE NEW GROUP OF WORLD SERVERS”
Meditation is the primary form of service for those following a spiritual path. It is a means of cooperation and alignment with hierarchical intent. The new moon period follows upon the cycle of out-breathing in the rhythmic cycles of the breath; it is a time of pause wherein together we can establish a soul-mind-brain alignment. During this period we work in thought to concretize the ideas and impressions received at the time of the full moon period and undertake the sometimes difficult process of translating them into practical plans that can be of service in the world. The effect of this meditative effort is to enhance the many ways in which the “power of the one Life” and the “love of the one soul” are working out through all true servers everywhere. The meeting will include an exploration on the theme The Gift of Understanding, followed by meditation and group discussion. Please call or email us if you will be attending, or contribute your thoughts prior to the meeting we will share them with the group when possible.

The Noble Whole
New Moon in January
As we move through our individual journeys down the evolutionary pathway, gliding along with us is the ever-present yet often hidden impulse toward a unified planet. Though achieving this goal seems impossible at times, we can find encouragement and very specific guidance in the accumulated wisdom of those who have come before us.
Emphasis is put on the strength of the whole, and on the potential contained within the minds and hearts of those who seek the higher values. Mystics and dreamers have always been with us. They, perhaps more than any other segment of the population, have always provided us with possible pathways forward. But it is for us, the do-ers, the makers, to take the dreams and place them squarely on the path of everyday life.
At the time of the Aquarius New Moon, we consider our role as an individual united with millions of individuals, in the playing out of this epic journey of fulfillment.
Questions for reflection and discussion:
Discuss the ability to dream and envision, as it relates to the achieving of very concrete and tangible goals for humanity and the planet. Energy follows thought.
- What preparation is necessary in order to have our mind impressed by an idea?
- What role does education play in the planetary impulse toward fulfillment?
