“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 outbreathing 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.

Looking for the New in the World that is in Process of Being Born
New Moon in Virgo
During the last full moon, the energies of Leo were pouring into the heights and depths of the human. Working in the New Moon under the impulse of Virgo, our focus shifts to the new that is in process of being born in the apparently chaotic world of time and space. For in Virgo that chaotic world is seen as a womb and the breeding ground for a newly oriented humanity.
With both the Leo-Aquarius energies and the Virgo-Pisces energies in mind the meeting will consider the birthing of a new sense of self and the impact this is having in relationships in the world of incarnated experience.
Virgo-Pisces suggests that we approach this theme of the self from the angle of a hidden transformation, taking place in the depths of the psyche where the higher and more universal Self is quietly establishing itself and putting down roots in ways that will often be unnoticed and unconscious to the personality identity.
What does all this mean in the worlds where we can trace and measure the passage to right human relations? Perhaps it suggests that we look less to the very fixed ideologies and strongly held opinions that fuel the current partisan space and look more to some of the hidden, quiet spaces where a higher sense of Self is embryonic.
Areas that will be explored will include the latest edition of the World Values Survey and the IPSOS Group’s Global Trends 2021 Survey.
Question for Reflection:
-
Are more people thinking today from the perspective of the Universal Self, in terms of human unity and the oneness of life, than in earlier decades? Or is this just wishful thinking?
-
Do you see any evidence of a synthesis occurring amongst those who think globally (from the perspective of the universal self) and those who think more locally or regionally or nationally – and if so what impact is this having on civilization and culture?
