Esoteric Astrology - The Science of Triangles - Triangles of Force - Planets |
It is interesting to note that the seventh Ray of Ceremonial
Law and Order works through Uranus which is today the transmitter of Sirian force via
Pisces to the [445] Hierarchy. From that "middle center" it passes to that
sensitive band of disciples, aspirants and workers to whose hearts and hands is committed
the heavy task, incident to the reorganization and the rebuilding of the shattered world
structure. The seventh ray has sometimes been called a peculiar name by Knowers. It is
regarded as the "Ray of Ritualistic Decency." It aids and inaugurates the
appearing of a new world order, based on a spiritual drive and on aspiration, mental
freedom, loving understanding and a physical plane rhythm which provides opportunity for
full creative expression. To bring this about, energy from Shamballa (embodying the
will-to-good) is fused and blended with the organizing energy of the seventh ray and then
carried to humanity along the stream of love which emanates from the Hierarchy itself.
Pisces governs this effort of the Hierarchy because the highest aspect of Pisces which
humanity can at this time in any way comprehend is that of Mediatorship. This is the
energy of mediation, of right relationship. Today as never before the Hierarchy stands as
a "mediating transmitter" between: 1 .Humanity and the will of God. The revelation of the true significance and purpose of that will as it stands behind all world events is needed now as never before. This can come through a closer relation between the Hierarchy and Humanity. 2.Humanity and its karma, for it is equally essential that the laws for the transmutation of karma into active present good are clearly grasped. 3.Humanity and cosmic evil, focused for many millenia of years in what has been called the Black Lodge. Speculation anent this Lodge and its activities is both fruitless and dangerous. [446] The latter fact is responsible for the widespread attack made upon Masonry during this century. Masonry - inadequate and corrupt as it has been and guilty of over-emphasizing certain forms of symbols - is nevertheless a germ or seed of future hierarchical effort when that effort is - at some later date - externalized on Earth. Masonry is governed by the seventh ray, and when certain important changes have been made and the spirit of Masonry is grasped instead of the letter, then we shall see a new form of hierarchical endeavor appear to aid in the restoration of the ancient and sacred Mysteries among men. The energy of Uranus, pouring upon and into humanity, produces the urge to better conditions to provide better forms for the occult and esoteric life and to blend more adequately the inner and the outer man. This is one of the reasons why the Moon is spoken of so often as veiling Uranus. The Moon is frequently used as a blind when Uranus is meant. Today the Moon is a dead world and the reason is that the Uranian urge became so strong in that far distant time when there were living forms upon the Moon that it led to the complete and final evacuation of the Moon and the transfer of its life to our planet. Such a transfer is not necessary today as the consciousness of humanity is such that the needed changes can be brought about without such a drastic procedure. It is, however, this Uranian influence which lies behind the present shift of populations throughout Europe and Great Britain and which is responsible for the steady movement of peoples from East to West, from Asia to Europe in the earlier history of that continent and from Europe to the Western hemisphere in more modern times. In the study of the interlocking of these triangles, it [447] will become apparent to the student that the combination of the influences of Sirius, Leo and Uranus has been much needed at this time to foster and bring about those conditions which will enable mankind, under the steady influence of the Hierarchy, to take the first initiation and "give birth to the Christ," thus revealing and bringing to the light of day the inner, hidden, spiritual Man. It is in Leo that man undergoes the preparatory stages of this first initiation. He finds himself and becomes self-conscious; then he arrives at the stage of intelligent discipleship; he formulates a conscious inner program or purpose under the steady pressure of the life of the indwelling Christ; he begins to exhaust and deny the demands and desires of the lower nature. This cycle of experience is followed by a painful life of conscious reorientation - a cycle wherein he achieves balance and begins to "stand in spiritual Being" as a result of constant trial and testing. Finally he stands ready for the ordeal and the accolade of fire, preceding the first initiation. At that final stage, Humanity today stands. When (as is now the case) the influence of Uranus is added to the other influences and the seventh ray is at the same time entering into a major cycle of activity on the Earth, there is then present the energy needed to precipitate the crisis of initiation and produce a great rhythmic awakening. Astrologers would find it of interest to note similar combinations in the individual horoscope. |
