“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. The meeting will be broadcast on ZOOM.
Towards a Point of Newer Tension
The time of the new moon is known as the lowest point of the monthly cycle and also its beginning. With eyes fixed towards the future, it is easy to lose sight of the significance of that which has just been completed. Both hindsight and foresight are important if we are to continue bringing the fruits of our efforts onto ever higher turns of the spiral and to establish a continuity of consciousness from the past to the future and from the world of human living to the kingdom of souls.
This new moon takes place between the full moons of Taurus and Gemini and can be considered as bridging between them. The highest point of the spiritual year at the Taurus full moon is a point of the highest spiritual tension which must be carried to its consummation in Gemini, when these energies are distributed in service to all humanity. The entire period—which includes even the Aries full moon preceding Taurus—is a great invocative act which creates an alignment and interplay between Humanity and Hierarchy.
In practical terms, this work of bridging and spiritual invocation must occur within the world of human thought and living, and it is important to consider what we can do, as groups and individuals, to facilitate our spiritual work during this time. This meeting will discuss this work and also the various techniques, both objective and subjective, horizontal and vertical, that make invocation possible.
Questions for reflection:
1. Do you believe soul light is increasing in the world today? If so, what evidence do you see of this occurring?
2. What does the phrase “to work from an invocative point of tension” mean to you?
3. What does the phrase continuity of consciousness mean to you?
