The following remarks were broadcast in the Triangles Webinar on September 11, 2017:

In relation to the shining forth of light there is an interesting teaching in esoteric astrology about the different qualities of light that characterize any particular sign of the zodiac. The descriptions can inspire us to seek to understand these qualities and differences and work more deeply with them.  By doing this we learn discrimination and deepen our inner knowing of what is needed at any time.  The shifting light in the outer world is a reflection of the inner qualities.

From a talk given at a recent Triangles Webinar:

In Esoteric Astrology, the Tibetan reminds us that the “Law of the Universe is to all eternity the good of the whole” (adapted), and goes on to say “naught can arrest this happening; for who can arrest the impact of these energies which play upon and through our planet.” Our planetary Logos holds all within the circle of His divine love. Within the circumference or ring-pass-not of His eternal Will-to-Good and supreme sacrifice, all lives work out their predetermined purpose. Our work, in this unfolding planetary effort, is to bring goodwill from latency into objectivity. Goodwill, it has been said, must become “active in expression and in tangible deed upon the physical plane”, and not ‘frozen’ or ‘trapped’ upon the higher planes. The Triangles network and the work of Triangles helps to release and circulate this bountiful and beneficent energy throughout the planetary spheres relating Hierarchy and humanity, and humanity and the three lower kingdoms in a more meaningful and constructive way.

When considering the Great Invocation it’s helpful to remember that it is one of our most potent tools for preparing human consciousness for the return of the World Teacher, known by many different names in the various world religions. The emanating source to which we direct our invocative appeal is a world of pure energy, of pure Being, “of light and directed force; [It]... can be seen as streams and centres of force, all forming a pattern of consummate beauty…(DINA II, p. 293). Holding within our hearts and minds the vision of this emanating source can be helpful in aiding us to keep our work alive. We lift and breathe in these streams of force and then breathe them out into the world.

This is the text of a talk that was broadcast on the online Triangles meeting on August 21st when a total solar eclipse was occurring in parts of the USA:

Eclipses are a time of alignment.  Alignment occurs when through a focusing of the mind we become able to bring about a merging within the subtle vehicles, a tautness, that enables us to become receptive to the soul and also to the spirit.  It is through this alignment that we can participate more fully in the merging between the solar and lunar zodiacs that occurs at this time.
