ESOTERIC ADVENT - CHRISTMAS
MOUNTAIN THE FIRST
MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY
(December 1 - 6, 2025)
“BE PURE”
We join the Solar Angel and the Divine Mother of the World
WORLD MOTHER
MADONNA LABORIS
VIRGIN MARY AS DEVA OF EARTH — “The greatest of all Devas (Angels)”
Invoke often: Consciously Attune. Enter Sacred Space. “Let Be”.
Many are the ways and methods to access the inner worlds. Often, our ray structure determines what is most effective or desirable than others. We open the gates to the living reality of the sacred where hierarchies of Angels live and great Beings of Love, Light and Holy Will abide through our unified group alignments, meditation, reflection, contemplation, sacred text, sacred music, beholding sacred imagery, invocation & evocation, words of power … and entering depths of Silence. All these ways are empowered by group approach. The Soul Star Group is Our primary means of access for heightened group awareness in connection with the Christ. All the above serve as "vibrational portals” or entry points of contact into the Real.
ʘ
PLEASE NOTE: There are TWO daily meditations. The first is a group meditation with the Soul Star Group. The second is a daily practice (contemplation) for the specific day of the week. Both can be found by scrolling down past the written content.
THE FIRST MOUNTAIN
We Commit. We Gather. We Attune. We Labor In Love.
During the Christ-Mass season, individually and as a group, we are RETREATING inward. Dedicated, self-organized, inwardly oriented, we set our intention for a journey through successive heights or mountains of Consciousness. Mountain the First begins with Purity.
As we enter through the portal of ‘sacred time and sacred space’ our ascent begins with the Solar Angel (the Angel of the Presence who has been with us for-ever) and the Madonna Laboris Who will be with us for the duration. In fact and in truth, irrespective of personal or inherited beliefs, The Angel of the Presence is inherent to us, guiding our internal process toward full Self-realization, revelation and eventual liberation. Hence the counsel to ‘invoke often’. The ancient Egyptians and early monastic Christian orders followed the rhythm of the Sun – sunrise, mid-day, high noon, after-noon, sunset and midnight to maintain a continuity of Consciousness in connection with Source. We can do the same if we choose.
The Master DK advised that during rhythmic cycles of spiritual focus, all the while actively living and serving in the world of form, "at no time—whilst so occupied—are we to lose sight of our inner orientation and recollection. All the time we are outwardly busy, we simultaneously are occupied with a constant realization of a retreat inward, a heightening of our vibration, and a raising of our consciousness." (DNA-II, 56)
We must learn to fuse our outer activity with our inner orientation to work in the manner of "one blended, concentrated spiritual activity."
How we consciously use our time, how we sanctify our environments, how we move through life (physically, emotionally and mentally), where we place our focus … all determine how wide the inner door swings open to the subtle worlds of the Soul and Spirit — where the Angels live, where walk the Masters of Love-Wisdom, in Whose vibration we aspire to stand.
The Christ Mass season always begins in the sign and energy stream of Sagittarius whose Keynote is:
“A beam of directed, focused Light. In this the point of light becomes the beam, revealing a greater light ahead and illumining the way to the center of the light.” “With Power upon its beam, the Light is focused on the Goal”.
The Key Word of the Soul is: “I see the Goal. I reach that goal and then I see another.” May the words of this final injunction to the disciple carry meaning to the heart and mind.” (EA, 193)
◊ In this Keynote and Word phrase of Power, let us reflect again upon our purpose together.
The Soul, “the Christ in you”, is a matrix of energies connected and fed by deeper (higher) energies from the plane of the Monad, the God Within seated in Being. The Soul looks in two directions, to Spirit — the Father in Heaven and to the 3-fold personality instrument embedded in Mother Matter when in incarnation. Tasked to purify and create a fit instrument of expression for the higher nature — we are eventually raised to “Heaven” — the esoteric meaning of the Assumption of Mary. In raising the matter aspect of the personality onto the first plane of atomic vibration is both the culmination of a long process begun eons ago, and a new beginning.
The Transfiguration Initiation (3rd degree) was demonstrated for us by Christ Jesus as the revelation of the Glory Body revealing a beauteous array of color and sound. This was followed by the Renunciation Initiation (4th degree) through the Law of Repulse of lower planes of desire and pulls of matter that had previously served. Mastery over all the lower sub-planes within oneself eventually leads to a more perfect union with the Soul and the true Self or Spirit. The ultimate freedom is Being, freed from the lower planes of existence and revealing new pathways, new contacts and still greater Revelations.
Throughout this process in time and space, the disciple initiate is inwardly compelled to serve others and the Plan of God. Joy, compassion and forward movement are intertwined. After finding the path, we become the Path and discover, “To give and to receive are one in Truth.” (ACIM, Lesson 108)

A DAILY SOUL GROUP ALIGNMENT
Let us now enter into 'sacred time' and 'sacred space' — visualizing the place where we are sitting as a temple for the Soul. (Pause)
Light a light unto the Christ in the stillness of your Mind, sounding the Sacred Word, OM, (silently or aloud) feeling its vibration.
Let us step deeper now, more fully, into the Soul and Soul field of vibration whilst breathing into the Silence … Identify as the Soul (not as the personality form) ~ As higher Light, higher Love, and Holy Will … flows to and through the form.
Sounding forth the Sacred Word, OM, breathe in "the Breath of Life pouring through all the centers" ... releasing atoms of lesser vibration from the temporary and ever-changing vehicles of expression (mind, emotions, body).
Now with intense Soul aspiration, attune to a still higher vibration … breathing in atoms of higher light, higher love, and Holy Will … whilst sounding the sacred Word, heightening every center — affirming the new vibration. ◊ Allow the energy to circulate from the Crown through the central column, passing through all the etheric Centers of the subtle bodies — thence "Blessing the Earth upon which we walk." ◊ The energy circulates "whence it came" (from the Crown — through the central column, or, as an ovoid of circulating light encompassing the entire etheric body).
◊ In this heightened solar vibration, attune now with the Soul Star Group — entering the Group's vibrational field. Visualize our collective Group coming into vibrational resonance with the field of "The Christ Circle" … visible to the inner eye as a radiant Sphere of luminous Light, all-inclusive Love and Holy Will.
◊ As contact is made, energy begins to flow to and through the group … ◊ We can choose now to connect with the Christ by extending a beam of love and light to Him through the Central Star — His symbol. When contact is made, we can sense / feel vibrant atoms of Christic Love and Light touching us, reaching deep inside the heart-mind … of all here gathered — creating a unified Solar field of group vibration, a network of One Heart-One Mind-One Body … (Pause)
◊ Let us now visualize the Christ Star as a magnanimous group Heart rhythmically pulsing the Cosmic Christ Principle streaming from the Star Sirius to and through the “Heart of the Sun” — the “Son of Divine Love” — a Great Heart Center in this Solar System … thence streaming through the solar system to planet Earth and that “Center where the Love of God is Known” — the spiritual Hierarchy. (Pause)
We Know Love’s response — the Gift Waves of the Christ pour through all consecrated Soul Groups dedicated to loving and serving Humanity, thereby uplifting Humanity and the Kingdoms of nature.
◊ Give Gratitude for these Teachings and potent group alignments. Sounding the sacred Word, OM, let us confirm our heightened vibration. OM
Having received, let us now give. Extending to our co-workers, our closest relations and to Humanity ~
we begin with the Sacred Word, OM,
sounding the GREAT INVOCATION - CLICK HERE (for the words)

Invocation of “THE FORCES OF LIGHT”
‘Let the Forces of Light bring illumination to mankind.
Let the Spirit of Peace be spread abroad.
May people of goodwill everywhere meet in a spirit of cooperation.
May forgiveness on the part of all be the keynote at this time.
Let power attend the efforts of the Great Ones.
So Let It Be, and help us to do our part.’
(EXT, 25/6)
ʘ
‘In the centre of the will of God we stand.
Naught shall deflect our will from His.
We implement that will by love.
We turn towards the field of service.
We, the Triangle divine, work out that will
Within the square and serve Humanity (our fellowmen).’
(DNA-II, 141)
MADONNA LABORIS
In His first Advent 2000 years ago, Christ opened the door to Divine Love releasing into the world the potency of the “Saving Force”.
All who learn to truly Love and all who embody Love, carry a measure of the Saving Force within them that heals and salvages the world in our daily responses to life. Mountain the First expresses this theme with the Madonna Laboris.
As we deepen the Love of God in our lives, we open the channel wider for the Saving Force to flow through us as Divine Mothers nurturing the growing Christ principle within. The fire of Love expressing through the Divine Mother as the Madonna Laboris is a force of profound power.
Our Sun and Solar System is a Heart Center in the body of a great BEING comprised of Seven Solar Systems referred to in the Blue Books (by Alice Bailey) as the “One About Whom Naught May Be Said” (OAWNMBS). LOVE, the middle principle, is the goal of OUR SUN for this solar system. In THIS ONENESS, all life LIVEs, MOVEs, BREATHEs AND HAS ITS BEING. Likewise, on our beautiful blue planet Earth, we too are ‘breathed, lived, moved and have our Being’. To love our blue green Earth is to love Deity.
Why The Madonna Laboris? The world is in great need of the Divine Feminine Principle of Divinity to “BE With US” at this time, in full power. Here we meet the VIRGIN MOTHER, a FEMININE CHRIST figure, expressing as the Madonna Laboris.
She stimulates the Christ or Soul nature for birth into full expression. Compassion is Her Keynote. In any temporary fall from grace, the Divine Mother principle brings us back again and again to our inner Christ nature as if giving us a life-line.
The white scarf of salvation depicted in Roerich’s painting is a symbol for the uplifting powers of the Soul. It is a vibrational experience and can manifest in a myriad of ways — as a sudden healing, reprieve or grace in the midst of very difficult circumstances, as synchronicity, magical happenings, union and unity after separation, and as Forgiveness given and received that moves beyond negative karmic conditioning (patterns) to a new freedom.
All the planes of the manifested world are in constant change and movement. When we are about “our Father’s business”, we are birthing a new world civilization for the coming Age in accord with God’s Plan. “Heaven on Earth” will manifest through the Soul of Humanity in all the varied expressions and departments of living, not just spiritual or religious lines. Every line is potentially spiritual.
During the Christmas Advent month, a great gift to give Humanity is to see, envision a sphere of Living Light comprised of beauteous collective rainbow cultures of Soul Rays, affirming “We are One Soul, One Humanity” of rainbow Lights, one to another. Divisions and color blind perceptions can no longer exist when we see as the Soul sees.
To bring intentional light and love into the world through our inner practices, ritual ceremonies, meditations and prayers, we are in essence saying: This is Christmas.

A Suggested MALA Practice
MALA and 108 KUMARAS
A MALA of 108 beads corresponds with the 108 Kumaras surrounding planet Earth.
The Madonna Laboris is an extension of Mary Who stands for the Earth, esoterically understood. All of humanity’s woes are a result of not having a connection with the Soul and living as a Soul.
MALA PRACTICE: One round of linking with the 108 Kumaras surrounding the Earth whilst sounding with intention “Soul Direction In All Beings” would stimulate Humanity’s Soul Direction ~
“SOUL DIRECTION IN ALL BEINGS”
Begin and end intoning the following invocation on the first and last bead. For the beads in between, we intone just the first phrase — “Soul Direction In All Beings.”
"Soul Direction In All Beings.
North—South—East—West,
Above, Below,
Within, Without,
Soul Direction In All Beings."

A SAVING FORCE
Life Lines of Compassion are ever with us in the Ever-Presence of the Divine Mother.
The Compassionate Heart tenders a luminous life-line on the path of return to Wholeness.
In the word phrase “Let Be” we find our deepest Salvation.
ʘ
THE MADONNA LABORIS depicts a story from an apocryphal gospel.
"In the transcendent heights above earth's vibration stand the gates of Heaven. The Apostle Peter, sacristan of paradise, guards the gates.
Peter became disturbed and said to the Lord God: “All day long I watch the gates of Paradise; I do not let anyone in, yet in the morning there are newcomers in Paradise.”
And the Lord said: “Let us make the rounds at night, Peter, and see.”
So they went in the night and they saw the Holy Virgin lowering along the wall her snow-white scarf, up which souls were climbing.
Peter took this to heart and wanted to interfere, but the Lord whispered:
“Shh… let Be…”
(Story and painting by Nicholas Roerich, Realm of Light, To Womanhood, 1931)
ʘ
DURING THIS FIRST WEEK OF ADVENT, we will heighten our higher feeling nature (Pure Love) by bringing all lower thoughts and emotions “into the sacred” — through the Madonna Laboris (or Divine Mother) and HEART of the Christ within. As our astral emotions are purified and become attuned to a higher correspondence on the Buddhic Plane — that of pure feeling, then that which is lower is reconstituted by that which is higher. We can then reflect pure Love and Intuition of "Buddhi".
Feeling embraced (on all levels) by the substantive Presence of the Holy One in the world—we come to realize GOD’s Divine Love as Mercy, Compassion and an ever-present embrace— always with us, substantiating the fabric of Being.
MOTHER GOD is the Holy Substance behind every form. Mother God sub-stands and embodies. She is ‘substantive existence’ – the essence of all forms. Through Her came the manifested world.
The essence of the DIVINE MOTHER is known by many names and attributes oft referred to as the ‘Thousand Faces’ of the Divine Feminine. In this first week, She comes to us as the Madonna Laboris, a saving force so needed by Humanity today and the sentient life on earth at this time of human history, now more than ever. Let us welcome Her into our lives fully, to experience Her richness, fullness and gifts. Her Presence with us is the most valued Gift.
Let the Door open.
Affirm and multiply all the treasures abiding in the “Chalice” in the coming New Year!
“In the spirit of each man lives the principle of good, which can saturate the whole being if these energies of Light are consciously invoked. … In its seed each spirt knows the truth manifested by quiet currents; hence, this immersing directs the spirt to right thinking. The Consciousness of unity can open all the locks which separate from the Higher Truth. The world of the spirt needs to be understood. Thus, everyone can evoke a most subtle current from the depths of the heart. The best conduit to the Fiery World is the depths of the heart; therein is hidden the Cosmic Fire”. (Fiery World, Sloka 129)
Let us now place around us the WHITE SCARF of PURITY … reminding us of Unity Consciousness and the SAVING FORCE that is ever with us.
DAILY DIAMOND SOUL PRACTICES
MONDAY
With these thoughts in mind, we invoke the Madonna Laboris (music playing):
As we open to God as Mother, She extends into the deepest recesses of our nature, healing to wholeness. As we open to Her energy, She reaches toward us, into us, over us, around us … embracing us softly with an all-pervading, penetrating Love. Hear Her words now ~ “Let Go” and “Let Be” (Pause).
As we enter more deeply into Her reality … we allow Her Holy energy to participate with us and through us — an ever-present loving Companion of Grace flowing through us …. stilling the mind … filling the Heart full with the fire of Pure Love. (Pause)
Come Into Her Presence ... a gentle fire … a magnanimous Presence reaching toward us ... surrounding and suffusing us with Her Grace. (Pause)
◊ We Remember:
Reflect upon Grace. See how it shows itself, remember and sense how it feels, remember an experience of Grace.
Reflect upon your experiences of healing arising out of Love and Compassion.
How has the Saving Force been moving through your life? Remember a time when.
Know that Her life-line is ever present for the asking, in every deepest need and circumstance ... in every shadow ... as a presence of Compassion, as a presence teaching us Her Way.
◊ And now — ask Madonna Laboris to extend to you a "life line” for a specific action in need of Her Presence ... to “Let Be” in a higher Way. (Receive Her Blessing now ~ when we ask, we open a channel of reception within ourselves to receive).
◊
THE SAVING FORCE FOR HUMANITY
Recognize the Saving Force flowing through us and through Humanity ~ healing hopelessness, losses and separation.
To know this “Power” intimately, come back to it again and again on this day, this week and entire Advent period. Reflecting on your own life now, recognizing the Presence of the Saving Force, how have you been “saved” for a higher purpose?
Extend the Saving Force to someone you know in need or on a wider scale — whether it be a troubling situation at hand, or a larger context in the world today. Allow Her to Be With You through your Heart, Mind, energy Field, Aura, Soul — through our hands and feet — directing this Energy.
“Let It Be”
Later in the Day … or evening review, reflect:
Remember a time when you sensed this divine energy at play, today (or past).
Remember a time when this happened for someone you know, past or present.
Recognize the Saving Force as a power at work in the world today. It is not always soft. It has also been known as a powerful force (a Fire) of intercedence “making things right”.
◊ ◊ ◊
Ever-Present, the Holy Mother works within ~ substantively, subtly, sub-atomically … Recognize Her Ways.
Today, let us recognize “the ways” the Saving Force works — in and through Humanity, our groups, and our lives — in us, through us. Grace extends into the world, no place untouched. Let us reach for it (invoke it), let us create space for it, let us open and allow it in.
Blessedness descends like a soft energy, a blanket of refined energy, that has the potential to change our conditions, our conditioning, every-thing. May this HOLY energy land in our lives and BE WITH US throughout these days — in new as well as old ways.
May all Be Well with You, Soul
May all Be Well with our Soul Group (s)
May all Be Well with Humanity
Christ said to His Disciples,
~ May all Be Well With You ~
Let Be
Blessed Be

TUESDAY
Return to the image of The Madonna Laboris (and with music of your choice).
Today, we Open to the Madonna Laboris as Forgiveness - For Giving Love
◊ For the energy of Love to find fuller entry “in and through” our lives — to find fuller residence, permitting humble strength in our spheres of service and influence, our own energy fields must be made PURE — cleared of all grievances that cause separation, old holdings, fixed perceptions caused by judgements, pride, fear — any low frequency impurities that still remain in residence. Once cleared and purged from our system, we find our own freedom of release — an ongoing, increasing lightness of being. ◊ REFLECT AND ALLOW THIS NOW.
◊ Forgiveness, as taught by the Christ, is a most powerful, thorough, complete and “simple” and method for releasing past karma (the old) that then allows for the entry of new energy, for the new — for a higher, newer order to come in. Forgiveness, as Christ taught to His disciples, is a meta-physical life-line for new energy and new conditions to radically replace the former. Forgiveness means to “Give Love”. To For-Give is to give the energy of solar Love. Forgiveness directs the ‘powers of Love’ to flow through a chosen form, action, relationship, feeling state, lines of thought, conditions or circumstances. “Let Be” takes on new meaning.
◊ Is there someone — you yourself, or a person, relationship, situation, feeling state, thought, thing … or — local or world condition that would benefit from the Life-Line of Forgiveness implemented and supplemented by the Love of the Madonna Laboris?
Forgiveness is ‘For Giving' Divine Love and Compassion.
◊ For-Giving Love Diamond Soul Practice:
“For-Giveness” is big Medicine. It will “undo” energy patterns that “need to go”.
Who will you “for-give” today? What situation, group, person — will you assist to bring into a new energy field by “for-giving” for rising today ?
Bring to mind someone (something). Say as a Soul: “I forgive you ____________. Forgive me”. (Saying Forgive Me is also a necessary part of the equation because it allows energy to flow in both directions).
Offer it now with the Madonna Laboris, visualizing the Life-Line of the power of Love pouring into this person, situation, group or condition.
The GRACE of Compassion follows … a cohering, healing agent.
◊ Conclude by sounding the Second Stanza of the Great Invocation.
"From the Point of Love within the Heart of God,
Let Love Stream Forth into the Hearts of Men (into Human Hearts),
May Christ (The Coming One) Return to Earth".
“BE WITH US”
Sense the Hierarchy — the Center where the Love of God is Known — standing behind us, with us.
OM
Walk into your Day today feeling ‘flowed-through’ with the Grace and Power of Divine Compassion, held in God's Care.
"Let Be"
LET LOVE BE
LET COMPASSION BE
LET UNDERSTANDING BE
WEDNESDAY
◊ “The problem of all disciples remains the same. This is to live simultaneously the acutely sensitive inner life of the Pilgrim upon the path of life, of a human being in the world of human events; to live the group life of the pledged disciple and the mass life of humanity; to fulfil his own spiritual destiny, through the medium of a controlled personality and, at the same time, to participate fully in the life of humanity upon Earth—this is no easy task.” EA, 498 CONTEMPLATE
◊ ◊ ◊
Christ said, "I will send you the Comforter".
The Holy Spirit as the Comforter, whose etheric white scarf symbolizes unity consciousness with the power to heal and lift, bestows the force of Good through “forgivingness.”
When the heart is open, The Comforter is present when solace is needed. An all-encompassing, pervading Presence of Holy Companionship is then made known.
◊ ◊ ◊
The Comforter can also be accessed through Beauty … Truth … Purity … Goodness — all are expressions of the Good settling into our world like a Presence when invoked … heightening, lifting our world unto wholeness. These too are Life-lines.
Reflecting on these words, calling to mind a time in our lives when we have been profoundly comforted, lifted, or inspired by the Holy presence of the Comforter, returns the energy into our sphere of awareness …
The Solar Angel is a Being … Beauty is a Being … Purity is a Being …
We recognize these named Presences as embodied lives, higher Beings, aspects of the HOLY SPIRIT as Comforter — in our multi-mansioned universe.
OM
◊ ◊ ◊
“There is no true direction apart from thought, and I would have you remember that thought is power. This is a statement upon which all disciples should ponder.” EA, 191
Identify with, call In, Be One With (choose one):
◊ Purity Lived — Be a life-line of Purity today, lifting oneself and all unto a higher order of Being.
◊ Beauty Lived — Be a life-line of Beauty today, magnetizing a new world of beauty unfolding.
◊ Truth Lived — Be a life-line of Truth today, recognizing Truth revealing the Divine Pattern.
◊ The Good Lived — Be a life-line of Goodness today, extending the power of God making all things Right and Good.
After opening to the Blessings of the Holy Comforter, ASK: how can we extend, in what ways can we express, offer or receive this energy? Let us Trust our perceptions, our guidance, our answers, …
Thence, serve and be served by the energies of the Holy Comforter living through us now as we step into the world.
Trust that inner and outer life conditions will be lifted thereby. As we stimulate these energies, the Good will come toward us.
Through vibrational resonance, alignment and contact, we can be “lived through” by the life of such Beings seeking contact with us from the higher worlds, in cooperation with us, and in measured response.
◊ Throughout, and at the end of this day, notice how ‘the world’ – ‘our world’ — all whom we have touched (with our directed thought, actions and interplay) — have changed, been altered, expanded or enriched.
OM
THURSDAY
◊ "When the dual forces of the cosmic brothers (Gemini) become the energy of the one who rides towards the light (Sagittarius) then the fourth [Humanity] becomes the fifth [Hierarchy]. Humanity, the link, becomes the Hierarchy, the bestower of all good. Then all the Sons of God rejoice." (EA, 356 )
Visualize Humanity merging with Hierarchy — the two as one becoming a bestower of all Good. Humanity is on the way. Let us see where this is True even now. Let us recognize the process of merging increasingly underway — through all the strife, conflict and disharmony. Name and see what is wanting to emerge through it all. Eventually revealing the Holy One on stage.
◊ ◊ ◊
Today we come to understand another Face (Force) of the Divine Feminine as the Divine Mediatrix bringing together opposing forces, reconciling light and dark as a Presence in the Soul field.
The WAY of the Divine Feminine works through all sentient beings, all form manifestations in the diversity of life. Today, let us recognize conduits for the life aspect of these forces dancing through all life forms - our own and that of all the Kingdoms of nature, playing together, working together for noble goals, creating spaces for nurturance and healing and growth — let us see these faceted expressions as another ‘Way of Being’ for living our lives.
"Let Us Be" a living matrix of Harmony today reconciling light and dark, high and low, this and that.
◊ Look for this today — for the mediating influences ‘wholing' conflicting conditions, bringing higher Lights and new Order — via "Truth” — Beauty — The Right of a greater “Good” — that would allow new energy to flow through them, bringing new ways for higher solutions — soul-utions — allowing “truer” bettering, healing expressions to emerge — for lasting Life and real power to flow through them All.
As more Christ Consciousness flows through us, real Love — the Power that makes all things New will find lasting residence.
“Pure Love will neutralize the conflicting dualities of the astral plane.”
Today let us intone:
"Let Light and Love and Power Restore the Plan on Earth"
OM
(Standing within the Soul Star Group, let us sound forth these 'Words of Power' often today)
EVENING REVIEW — review what dualities, what opposites were brought into a new zone, by the influencing power (force) of the divine Mediatrix within you/us.
FRIDAY - Venus Day
Let us re-enter “the Silence of Being” conferring an abiding Purity.
All acts of love and joy flow from the pure in heart.
Never doubt the power of Goodness in one’s Heart.
Purity flows through all conduits of love and joy — upon our lands.
◊ ◊ ◊
The Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin (introduced by Catholicism) has a deeply esoteric meaning upon which to contemplate. Choose one for this day:
Contemplate the immaculate (pure) conception of Being as the Essential Divinity existing at the core of all Reality
Contemplate "Conceiving" pure Light
Contemplate the virginal state — the archetype, divine pattern — shining perfectly through us
Contemplate the purified form, every atom raised, coursing with spiritual power
Contemplate the life force of Spirit as virginal essence having residence in purified forms
Contemplate spiritual attainment achieved through sacrifice, humility of spirit and obedience to the Soul
Contemplate the lower fires of desire transmuted into pure Divine Love — “LOVE is a radiant LIGHT”
Contemplate perfect at-one-ment

The Redemption Labors of Virgo the Virgin
Day and Night — Birthing, Saving, Redeeming, Growing
Called into activity by the Holy Spirit before our inner eye, the purest pattern appears — the intended Archetype to which we are all returning. ◊ Standing in contrast to the pure pattern are our mis-creations and the strife they create. Redemption is the keynote for individual and world suffering, glamour and illusion.
Divine Compassion Is a Saving Force ~ “Let the Force Be With You”
◊ Lost, troubled souls caught in the thralldom of the lower worlds — a vibratory hell of lower fires oft born of selfish choices made and forced to live, are never ultimately abandoned. Life-lines to a higher “heaven” ever exist.
◊ Let us reflect upon the life-lines in our lives that have served as a saving force. ◊ Some lifted us up and out of a dire condition. When, how, by whom had a life-line saved you from a terrible condition or difficult situation?
Recalling life-lines extended but not taken, what were the hard lessons learned and reflected back?
◊ Do you see visible life-lines in the world today, that if taken, would change the conditions of the world? LET us name and speak them into the thought field as '“directed thought” and give energy to them.
◊ Virgo the Virgin was rising in the eastern horizon as Christ was born. Subsequently, presiding over the shielding, nurturing and birthing process of the Christ principle through every human born. The most ancient of all the Signs, over eons of time, round and round through 9 subsequent Constellations, She continues to guide every Soul to full unfoldment to reveal and express the divine inner archetype. ◊ CONTEMPLATE
As Redemptrix, the Soul is nurtured into full flowering ~
As evolving (unfolding) Souls, we are increasingly released from the grip of the lower worlds — from fears, rampant materialism, the nine hydras and downward pulls of the unredeemed lower self.
Rising on the luminous bridge of unfolding Awareness — the higher Mountains of Light and whole perception — the powers inherent in the "Soul-Self" begin to rise, be seen, released and utilized.
The vibrational bridge of consciousness continues expanding, eventually leading to the high-ways of Spirit and ultimate Freedom. The path of the Soul leads to Christhood, and the essential Self comes into full expression as we consciously walk the planes of Earth meeting soul-sized challenges in service.
◊ Visualize forward movement upon the Lighted Way—the Golden Path of the Soul … leading to the Diamond path of Spirit. ◊ CONTEMPLATE
Allow for a new Awareness to rise in you now.
◊ ◊ ◊
The processes of Redemption are alchemical and magical, transforming the very nature of substance through the powers of Venus and the Solar Angel (the Solar Angels came to Earth via Venus, from Sirius).
The Venusian Mind awakens and nurtures our higher potentialities — revealing the Christ within, and deeper still the pure vibration of “the Presence” ~ of Spirit ~ “the ineradicable and unalterable nature of Being.”
The Intuition, through its spiritual power to discern, leads the way to the Presence.
◊ Look to the "ways" redemption changes us, remembering that the Soul is the true Redeemer. Spiritual Alchemy changes us. This program and process is spiritual Alchemy.
◊ Really "see the ways" in which we as Individual Lights within the Body of God and as a collective Humanity — a Center in the Body of God, are manifesting a new world. This is an important spiritual practice. Changing our perception to "see whole" is an advanced spiritual practice that widens the channel and indicates the channel has been widened. Fragmented perception sees fragments, whilst whole perception sees whole when we are healed to wholeness. Venus is higher Mind, abstract Buddhic Mind, Pure Reason — and Loving Mind — love in the Mind (on the 2nd sub-plane of the mental plane).
As high Thought joins "Consciousness" (Soul Awareness), and aligns with beneficent forces moving rhythmically through the universe, we are consciously participating in and joining a great chain of Being — a bridge to an endless Life-Line. We subtly activate creative forces within ourselves. We strengthen our own hands and “the hands of all true servers". We play in concert with a great human symphony that is in harmony with the Plan of God.
◊ “When exalted and illumined in our thinking, darkness disappears.” New light enters. CONTEMPLATE
◊ Stars are rising with the Sun. Stars of redeemed lives whose purity is “true” — luminous pearls, shining diamonds, beautiful to behold, powerful in their radiance and purificatory effects. As more and more rising stars vibrate to a heavenly hierarchy, “Humanity, the link, becomes the Hierarchy, the bestower of all good. Then all the Sons of God rejoice." ◊ Will you Contemplate the rising star in you, now?

SATURDAY — Saturn’s Day
Hierarchy 1931
“Verse 119. Thought controls the vital impulse. … Consciousness attracts all vital expressions, and the creator of thought saturates space. Therefore it is so imperative to strive to broad thoughts and to the understanding of the foundations of Life. Each life is built upon its own orbit, and each life has a foundation upon which all actions must correspond to the Highest. Hence each thought must be directed to true achievement and must guard the highest striving. The quality of striving depends upon the impulse. Therefore one should develop all thoughts leading to the refinement of consciousness. Thus one can build a higher step.”
On this day made whole (made holy) by the distribution of hierarchical energies, we attune to the Will of God and the Divine Plan.
The Will of God — the Will to Good and higher Law finds entry through the Soul Star Group, and all consecrated serving Groups, for anchoring on Earth.
Today let us be conduits for directing the Saving Force (radiated by the Madonna Laboris) energy through the Soul Star Group — “Let It Be” a Saving Force for a troubled and suffering world.
◊ Let us Invoke with clarion Consciousness, the “SAVING FORCE” for the Soul of Humanity, the Soul of Our Nations and the Soul of the Earth by consciously standing within this energy field as a Soul Group.
OM
Let Us Be attuned to the ways in which we cooperate … allowing these energies to flow through our thoughts, feelings and actions. Let us come to recognize this Force clearly, and intimately.
◊ PLANETARY HEART PRACTICE: Look upon the Soul of your Nation as a Group Soul. It thrives through your Soul-recognition of Its strengths, unique qualities and gifts to the world. Hold the Soul of your nation in the Radiant Light of Love. Link your Heart with the Heart of the Soul Star Group with the Heart of the Soul of your Nation. Link this "triune Heart" with the Heart of the World Mother, the Heart of the Lord of Love and the Heart of the Lord of the World. Link this triune Heart with the Heart of the Solar Logos — the Son of Divine Love.
“The Good” is a powerful force, a potency of God. Standing within the energy field of the Soul Star Group linked with “the great potency of the inner Groups”, see the power of “The Good” pouring into your nation, suffusing and irradiating the Soul of ____________ with a higher vibration — righting wrongs, purifying mis-creations, aligning with higher values and Truth (speak into the field with your own words what is needed). Visualize the Good streaming through the Soul of your nation — disappearing the darkness of illusions, ill-begotten gains, materialistic values … setting a new course.
◊ Encourage the efficacy of the Saving, Redeeming Force to move through the birthing hours of the collective Soul of Humanity coming forth … thus confirming this process in our own lives as a "redeeming Fire” upon the “Lighted Way", extending into the world.
Visualize the Radiant Light of Love from the Heart of the Solar Logos as the sun rises on this day — as a redeeming Fire, a Saving Force — (remembering that all seven Rays flow through the Solar Ray of Love-Wisdom).
With the power of Thought, direct this force Collectively, where there is miscreation, pain, sorrow and illusion — bring this radiant Light of Love that is the Will of God — the “Will to Good” streaming through the Solar System — into those place(s), lifting all to a higher way, to better ways for all.
Thus the Planet Earth becomes sacred outwardly (to express what it already IS inwardly).
"The Saving Force Be With You” — extending to and through the Souls of All Nations, … the Soul of Humanity, … the Soul of the Earth, … thence sounding:
"From the Center Where the Will of God is Known,
Let Purpose Guide all Human Will.
The Purpose Which the Masters Know and Serve.”
◊
“Let Light and Love and Power restore the Plan on Earth.”
Sound these words of power whenever we see the need for the Saving Force in the world … and whenever we see the Saving Force ‘at play’ — confirming and strengthening the Will and Plan of God expressing in the world — through all human relations … and Nations.
OM
Mother of the World —We live in an “entified universe" made of angelic substance and intelligences embodied by Compassionate Love
Madonna Laboris
NICHOLAS ROERICH
“The Mother of the World—is a sublime manifestation of the Feminine Principle of Divinity”.
The Madonna Laboris is a living expression of the Principle of Divinity.
Together they are a potent Saving Force for the Soul of Humanity preparing the Way for the Coming One—and for all Coming Ones in Humanity’s future:
Let us Be inspired, Let us Be lifted high by the Saving Force of GOD. "Invoke Often".
Let us Be instruments of It's Good - for the Good in the world to come forth.
Let us Be comforted and confirmed by It's living power.
Let us Be Lived-through by the Saving Force of Redemption, by the Divine Mediatrix, by the Holy Spirit and Comforter.
Let us Be in-formed and flowed-through by the living Presence of the Divine Feminine that sub-stands life on Earth … and So Live.
LET US BE
“From the Center which we call the Human Race.
Let the Plan of Love and Light work out,
And May It seal the door where evil dwells.
“Let Light and Love and Power Restore the Plan on Earth."
“SO BE IT”
OM
