The Tibetan says it is the outstanding ray of the artist, but then he goes on to say the arts are found along all the ray lines...so what is it? According to the teachings, the fourth ray is due to come into full potency in the coming two hundred years or so. At the moment, we are walking in a fourth ray “buffet” due to the multiple tensions operating to render a world in crisis.

Young officers arriving for the first time at their new home among the rice fields of India during the British occupation, or in the heat and dust of a desert cantonment, would commonly be told by some well-meaning old India hand, that if they wished to grasp the essence of the eastern tradition, they should read one book, the Mahabharata, by far the world’s oldest and largest epic poem, and with 100000 verses, exceeding the Bible and all Shakespeare’s plays bundled together.

The astrological glyph for the sign of Pisces is usually interpreted as representing two fishes, linked by a thread or bar and pulling in opposite directions. The two fishes are said to represent the personality and the soul aspects of an individual, heading in opposite life directions. Since Pisces rules the feet the two fishes of Pisces can also be read as two feet facing in opposite directions – the feet of the ordinary personality, and the feet of the person who responds to the tug or pull of the soul life. It seems appropriate timing to use the period whilst the sun is in the sign of Pisces to apply our attention to the feet, recognising as we do so that “energy follows thought”.
