...The Aries Festival, which occurs each year at the first full moon of spring, is known as the festival of the risen, living Christ. On this day, Christ stands as the head of the Spiritual Hierarchy of Knowers who work upon the inner side of life but also as “the leader of angels and humanity”. The keynote of this Festival is Love, which was so perfectly exemplified by the Saviour’s life and service. On this day, the fallacy of death is proclaimed as the livingness of the Christ life is poured forth. This livingness, which emanates from distant sources, is focalized by the Christ and distributed through the collective group of all those who love and serve and who carry the spark of divinity within their own hearts. This energy reaches down into the natural world, which suddenly emerges from its slumber as a burst of new life thrills through all the kingdoms of nature.
On this day, Christians throughout the world celebrate the wonder of the Resurrection. Two thousand years ago, this single event changed everything and cast out any doubt as to Christ’s divinity. Today the purpose and promise of Christ’s life, death and resurrection is on the verge of achieving consummation. A new kingdom is coming into being; a fifth kingdom in nature is materialising, which already has a living nucleus functioning on earth in physical bodies. Therefore let us welcome the striving and struggling of the present time, for it is a sign that the resurrection life is stirring. Through this lens, we can view the present upheaval and the chaos of our world as an indication that humanity is breaking out of the tomb of selfishness and materialism and becoming responsive to the living light which the Christ life brings. Together the discipleship group today can penetrate into this darkness with the light we collectively share, and visualize the dead bones of humanity coming to life.

...It is said that the Wesak Festival is both a heavenly and an earthly event. At the highest level, the Festival concerns the transmission of God’s blessing to humanity through the interaction between the Buddha and the Christ. On earth, legend tells of a remote Himalayan valley where the Masters of the Wisdom gather, together with thousands of pilgrims, to witness the Buddha bestow this blessing and the Christ receive it on behalf of humanity.
In either case, the descriptions point to the downpouring of a great spiritual force that embodies the Purpose and Will of God (Will-Wisdom), expressed through Love (Love-Wisdom). This is a remarkable planetary alignment, a deep experience of invocation and evocation, and, as Alice Bailey reminds us, a “supreme moment of intensive spiritual effort” that brings about “the spiritual vitalisation of humanity”.
We are invited to participate in this annual event subjectively, as an inner ritual, engaging in it intelligently and employing the full power of our imagination. The group of all who are able to maintain “an inner quietness and a focused esoteric attentiveness” can then be “swept into this tide of spiritual force” and thus act as the final link in the chain – receiving, interpreting, and transmitting these energies so that they may serve humanity in this present moment of crisis.
This, then, is our opportunity to stand poised in spiritual being, both as individuals and as cohesive groups of servers, and to enter consciously into the livingness of this planetary alignment. Through the invocation of Divine Light, Love, and Power, we can effectively extend the magnetic field through which these spiritual forces may make their impact.
As the Teachings repeatedly affirm, the spiritual responsibility of anchoring these energies in the world requires that we act, under the Law of Magnetic Impulse, as the unified channel we are meant to be.

...The Stage of the Forerunner has now come to an end and to better understand how we can now serve the Plan and Christ’s return, we can look to the keynote of the sign of Aquarius for the energies seeking expression and the ideals seeking manifestation, to know the outlines of our work. The keynote of Aquarius, “Water of Life am I, poured forth for thirsty men”, suggests that as the heart centre of the New Group of World Servers, we share all that we know and have with others. One way the group is doing this, is through our meditation on the Aquarian ideals of Goodwill, Group Consciousness and Right Human Relations and how they can manifest within humanity.
Humanity is currently in a great battle between materialism and spirituality, depicted in Gemini as two great lines of force in conflict, or as the “quarrelling brothers”: Castor (mortal) and Pollux (immortal). Both are ultimately of the Father, but balance is needed between them so humanity can move beyond the present age of duality. It is through humanity’s recognition of the Christ within that this will be accomplished. Christ, or the soul of humanity, is this unifying force which can heal all cleavages and unify all dualities and it will be when Christ is more truly manifested in the human heart, that these goals of the Aquarian Age will be achieved.
The Gemini full moon is also known as The Christ Festival, The Festival of Goodwill, the Festival of Unification and the Festival of Humanity. These names represent ideas which provide humanity with a spiritual road map to understand the cause of its current suffering, the path to overcome that suffering, and the part Christ consciousness can play to end this present suffering, restoring peace and harmony to the human kingdom.
During the full moon of Gemini we have a great opportunity to invoke and evoke these living energies of Christ which are available at this time of the spiritual year, so this “water of life” can help to restore the Plan on Earth.
