A May Celebration In Honour Of

The Great Mother Of All Life



Bring flowers of the rarest,
Bring blossoms the fairest,
From garden and woodland
And hillside and dale.
Our full hearts are swelling,
Our glad voices telling
The praise of the loveliest flower of the vale.

Great Mother, we crown Thee with blossoms today,
Queen of the Angels and Queen of the May.
Great Mother, we crown Thee with blossoms today,
Queen of the Angels and Queen of the May,

Their Lady they name Thee,
Their Mistress proclaim Thee,
Oh, grant that Thy children on Earth be as true,
As long as the bowers
Are radiant with flowers,
As long as the azure shall keep its bright hue.

Great Mother, we crown Thee with blossoms today,
Queen of the Angels and Queen of the May,
Great Mother, we crown Thee with blossoms today,
Queen of the Angels and Queen of the May,

Sing gaily in chorus,
The bright Angels o’er us
Re-echo the strains we begin upon Earth.
Their harps are repeating
The notes of our greeting,
And You, Great Mother,
Are the cause of our mirth.

This hymn is sung during the ‘May Crowning’ of a statue of Mary in May.
Mary is one of the many symbolisms for the Great Mother of all life.

Recommended Viewing:

At the beginning of May the Sun moves through earthy and sensuous Taurus. It is a time that presents us and our world with a dramatic change of tempo. After the breakneck speed and impatience of Mars in Aries, in Taurus Venus enters the main stage. In this Earth sign the planet finds some of its finest feminine expressions and brings to souls born into it, and also to everybody else at this time of the year, a wonderful sense of enjoyment and appreciation of the good things in life. Slowly and with a deliberately measured pace, Earth presents herself as the beautiful young bride. Bedecked with a profusion of flowers, blossoms and new greenery as far as the eye can see, she reveals to us the freshness of as yet unspoilt youth.

Sun in Aries represents the renewed betrothal of Mother Earth and Father Sun. But when the Sun moves through Taurus her wedding feast is celebrated and the Universe invites us all to take time out and enjoy with all our senses one of the greatest Cosmic events, of which the wedding feast and the subsequent renewal of all life on the Earth plane are outer physical manifestations.

When it’s springtime in the Northern hemisphere and all of nature is stirring after its winter rest, spring blossoms appear everywhere in great abundance and beauty. Admiring them, let us remind ourselves from time to time of the process of spiritual growth and harmony that is constantly at work behind any manifestation in the world around us. All children of the Universal Life Force, who are aware of this, have their work cut out for themselves, not merely on the physical plane but by adding our voices to the chorus of praise and thanksgiving that is part of the great orchestra of life. Watching its unfolding helps us to become ever more aware of and in tune with those beavering away behind the outer form of life to bring forth the living manifestations of God’s life on the Earth plane.

Whenever an opportunity for it arises, let us therefore go out into Mother Nature. Under he canopy of Heaven we seek the shelter and shade of the mighty branches of the Universal Tree of Life, God, and absorb His/Her blessings of healing and peace for ourselves and for everything – seen and unseen – that shares this life with us.

From The Sun In Taurus

Happy May Day!

The Internet Prayer

Thank you, Great White Spirit,
Father/Mother of all life,
For the beauty and wonder of Your Creation.
Thank you for allowing us all to take part in
The natural beauty of the planet
You have given into our care,
Our beloved Mother Earth.

Thank you for also providing us with the ideas
For the technical revolution that has been taking place
In our world for quite some time.
May Your creative ideas continue to inspire all of us,
And especially our scientists and technicians,
So they too can do their share of making our world into
An ever more beautiful and peaceful place
Where all can partake freely and equally in
The gifts that so generously flow from Your abundance.

We thank You for the miracle of the Internet
And the connections it makes possible in seconds
For meeting and getting to know
Like-minded people throughout our whole planet.
Not only they but everyone is our sibling
In the family of humankind.
We are Your children of the Earth.
Please help all of us to become aware of our true nature,
So that we may tune into Your wisdom and truth
Until our whole world, including the Internet,
Is filled with Your light and Mother Earth
Turns into a planet of healing and peace.

Guide and protect us and show us how to use
All your gifts wisely and especially
The Internet. Help us to treat it with respect
And use it for the highest good of all,
As a tool and instrument that brings
Ever more understanding into our world.
Help us to treat every one of the miracles
Of Your Creation, technical and otherwise,
With the reverence they deserve
And with love for You,
The One who brings all things into being
And who has created and constantly re-creates
Us and this splendid world for all to enjoy.

Guide and protect us and
Help us to make our contribution towards
Our own salvation and redemption,
Of each other, our world and
Everything that shares is with us.
Hand in hand with You and the Angels,
In accordance with Your will and wishes,
It shall be so, now and forever.

Amen

Thank you, Ophiucus, for pointing it out to me. I have made some alterations to it and updated it since my last posting.

I'll look for the first one and delete it. Hope that's okay with you.

Reflections On Prayer
 
During prayer our inner self is active
And with our whole being we give
Our undivided attention to our Creator.
Failing to pray is a sign that someone has not yet
Recognised their own Christ nature and that
Themselves are a spark of the Divine,
The same as everybody else.
 
All human beings contain this spark and also
Every other lifeform that shares our world with us.
Lacking the desire to pray merely means
That a person’s spark is still slumbering
And that their time for its awakening
Has not yet come.
Not praying, not even knowing how to,
Shows that we are out of touch
With the most profound aspect of our being.
 
Some believe that prayer is an element
That separates us from real life,
Which to them means our earthly existence.
Yet, quite the opposite is true.
Prayer reconnects us
With the eternal realities of our Christ nature.
It helps us to rediscover our own Divinity
And takes us back into the conscious awareness
Of our oneness with God and all life.

On The Wings Of Prayer

 
Just close your eyes and open your heart,
And pray that your worries and cares may depart.
Yield yourself to Mother and Father above,
And let Them hold you secure in Their love.

As life on Earth grows more involved,
Many problems arise that we cannot solve.
But God only asks us to do our best,
So the Angels can take over and do the rest.

The next time you’re discouraged and feeling blue,
Know that one door is always open for you
And that’s the door to the house of prayer.
Our Highest Self is waiting to meet us there.

This place is no further away
Than any quiet spot where we can pray.
Our being turns into a temple, when God is there
And we place ourselves in His/Her loving care.

All prayers are heard and responded to,
And burdens too heavy for us alone to bear,
Can be lightened on the wings of prayer.

Anon.

 About Prayer

Rays Of Wisdom - Words And Prayers Of Comfort And Healing - About Prayer

Then a priestess said: ‘Speak to us of prayer!’
And the Prophet replied:
‘You pray in your distress and in your need.
Would that you might pray also in the fullness of your
Joy and your days of abundance.
What is prayer but the expansion of yourself into the living ethers?
And if you receive comfort through pouring your darkness
And negativity into space, at least make an effort to create balance
By also sharing your delights and pleasures with the Universe.
Don’t forget to give thanks for all that Earth life itself,
Your kind and loving teacher,
Brings to you all the experiences that help
To learn and grow ever more heaven-tall.

For as long as you are still asleep to your true nature,
You cannot help weeping and complaining
Rather than giving thanks and praise to your Creator.
So whenever your soul summons you to prayer,
Shed your tears and be comforted by God and the Angels
Who bring you healing as soon as you draw closer to them.
Learnt to surrender all your troubles and woes
To your Highest or God Self so that you,
The small earthly self, together with your spirit and soul,
Will soon be smiling again.

When you go within to communicate with them,
In your prayers you are rising to meet in the ethers those
Who, like you, are praying at that very moment
And whom, save in those moments
Ob bliss you would otherwise
Never be able to get in touch with.
In the long course of your evolution and in the fullness of time,
May each of your visits to your inner temple of the soul
Be for nothing but spiritual ecstasy
And sweet communion with
The Great Father/Mother of all Life
And the Angels.
But take care that when you go there,
You do not make demands on them.
Isn’t it enough that you are allowed to enter the temple
And be there for a while,
To be recharged with God’s loving energies?

Nobody can teach you how to pray in words.
God does not listen to them, save when S/He
Utters them through your lips.
And because you must all learn from your own experiences,
Nobody can teach you the prayers of the oceans,
The forests and the mountains,
Except those who were born of these places.
They know such prayers in their hearts.

And if you but listen in the stillness of the night,
You can hear their silent pleas:
‘Our God, who art our winged self.
It is Thy will in us that willeth.
It is Thy desire in us that desireth.
It is Thy urge in us that turns our nights, which are Thine,
Into days, which are also Thine.
We cannot ask Thee for aught,
For Thou already knowest
Everybody’s true needs before we are born.
Each spirit and soul is born of Thy desires
And Thou art our need.
In giving us more of Thyself,
Thou givest us all.’

A Prayer For Mothers Day



Mother’s Day is a modern celebration that has its origin in North America. It honours our own mother, as well as motherhood, maternal bonds and the influence of mothers in society in general. This day is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world, most commonly in the months of March or May.


The celebration of Mother’s Day began in the United States in the early twentieth century and is not related to the many festivities of mothers and motherhood that have been part of our world over thousands of years, such as the Greek cult to Cybele, the Roman festival of Hilaria or the Christian Mothering Sunday celebration, which originally celebrated the church as the mother of humankind, not motherhood in general. Despite this, in some countries Mother’s Day has become synonymous with these older traditions.

Father/Mother in Heaven
Whose love is Divine,
Thanks for the love
Of a mother like mine.

In Thy great mercy
Look down from above
And grant my dear mother
The gift of Your love.

And all through the year,
Whatever betide her,
Assure her each day
That you are with her.

Father/Mother in Heaven,
Please show me the way
To lighten her tasks
And brighten her day.

And bless her dear heart
With the ability to see
That her love means more
Than the world to me.

Helen Steiner Rice
Adapted by Aquarius

Our loving thoughts and prayers go to the Great Mother of all life. They are accompanied by special blessings for all who once were our mothers and are now enjoying their well earned rest in the world of spirit.

A Mother’s Love

There are exceptions to the rule, but generally speaking nobody loves us like our mother. Somewhere in the finely meshed fabric of life, she wove a strength, a kind of golden cord that tied us to her and released us into our present lifetime together with her. Ideally, this binding is not for possessing but protecting, so she can be there for us when necessary. In youth, we may feel this as a strain of too much watchfulness and too many questions.

Yet, the old equaliser time is likely to reveal to us eventually that the quality of her love has been less selfish than we thought and far more precious than we ever dreamed it could be. The best part of our relationship with her are not our blood ties but the karmic ones that reach way back into past lifetimes. This is the reason why she chose to love us and be our mother for this one. She did it because that’s what she wanted and not because it was her duty.

The awareness of this sets us free to say: ‘I like you, mother’ or ‘I love you, mama’. Quanah Parker from the Comanche tribe writes: ‘Comanche may die tomorrow or in ten year’s time, but when the end of this lifetime comes for any of us, we know that we shall all be together again in the world of spirit. I surely want to see my mother again.’

Even if the earthly mother of our present lifetime could not love us the way we would have liked her to, our Divine Mother always did and forever will.

Great Cathedrals – An Ode To Mothers
 
Why, when one of my children walks into the room while I am on the phone and asks to be taken somewhere, do I get these blank stares and the lack of response? I can feel my inner self rebelling each time something like this happens and I would like to shout: ‘Can’t you see I’m on the phone?’ But I control myself and say nothing. No-one seems to notice me whether I am on the phone, cooking or sweeping the floor, I could even be standing on my head in a corner. This makes me wonder whether I am invisible.
 
Some days I am a pair of hands, nothing more: ‘Can you fix this? ‘Can you tie this?’ ‘Can you open this?’ Some days I’m not even a pair of hands, never mind a human being. I’m a clock that can be asked: ‘What time is it?’ I’m a satellite guide who can answer the question: ‘What number is the Disney Channel?’ Sometimes it feels as if I were a taxi driver who is on call at all times and can be commanded with things like: ‘5.30 pm at Shirley’s, please!’
 
At times like that I look at my hands. They are the same ones that held books and the eyes that studied, what now seems a long time ago. I am still the person who once graduated with honours and who held down a responsible position for a good number of years. My thoughts go to my children. They are now the teachers who are helping me to graduate in the great school of life, with honours I hope. And I realise that this is far more important than any University or college degree could ever be, important though they are to us at the time.
 
I can’t help looking back sometimes and asking myself: ‘Has all that vanished from me without a trace, never to be seen again?’ When a tinge of sadness creeps in, I remind myself that I gave up all these things freely and willingly, because more than anything else in the whole wide world I wanted children of my own, a home and a family I could pour all my love into. And then suddenly an overwhelming thought strikes me: ‘Who was the person who did all the things I mentioned earlier? Where is she now? She has not left me, she is still here, but she has changed and grown immensely through her offspring. She’s less selfish and more thoughtful than she used to be. I like her much better.
 
One night a group of friends were having dinner together. Janice is one of our circle and we were celebrating her return from abroad. Having just got back from a fabulous trip, she went on and on about the hotel she stayed in. I was sitting there, having a good look at the others who were all turned out so well. It was hard not to compare and feel sorry for myself with my out-of-style dress, the only thing I could find that was clean to wear for the occasion. As I didn’t have the time to wash my hair before I came out, I just tied it into a knot. And then for a moment I was afraid a smell of peanut butter might waft from me to the others. I have to admit I was feeling a bit sorry for myself. But then Janice turned to me with a beautifully wrapped package and said: ‘I brought you this.’
 
It was a book on the great cathedrals of Europe. I wasn’t sure why she had given it to me, until I read her dedication, which read: ‘To my friend, with admiration for the greatness of what you are building and what no-one can see.’ During the coming days I read – no, I devoured the book and discovered in them four truths that changed my perspective of life entirely. I discovered that the life of the builders of the great cathedrals of our world had been so very similar to mine.
 
Nobody knows who the builders were, as no records of their names are available anywhere. It could be that they dedicated a whole lifetime to a work they would never see finished. And so they probably expected no credit for their project. Their enthusiasm and love for their project may well have been fuelled by the belief that they were building for the glory of God and that the all-seeing eye of God would appreciate the sacrifices they made.
 
The book contains a legend about a rich man who came to visit one of the cathedrals while it was under construction. For a while he watched a workman who was carving a tiny bird on the inside of a beam. The rich man was so puzzled by this that he asked the workman: ‘Why are you spending so much time carving that bird into a beam that will be covered by the roof? No-one will ever see it.’ ‘Ah,’ the other one replied: ‘It’s for God. The almighty sees everything.’
 
When I closed the book, I felt the small still voice inside me whispering : ‘All your efforts are not for nothing. I see even the tiniest sacrifice you are making each day, even though no-one else does. No act of kindness, no button sewn on or cake baked is too small an effort for me to notice and be pleased about. Be proud for you too are involved in the construction of a great building. You cannot yet see what it will one day be. It may even take until you return into the world of spirit, but from there too you will know that your efforts were not for nothing and that the seeds you have sown are indeed bearing fruit.’
 
It’s good to know that, just as the builders of those cathedrals are looking at their achievement from the other side of the veil of consciousness, at the latest I too will be able to view the results of my efforts when I join them. But, wait a minute. Some of those great edifices are hundreds of years old, so in the meantime the builders could have been recycled many times. Just think! At this very moment they could be standing in front of one of those old churches, admiring the work of their own minds and hands, unaware of what kind of an input they once had into it. They may inexplicably feel drawn to it, as if by some giant invisible magnet, to gaze upon and admire it. Isn’t it an amazing world we live in?
 
I have to admit, the feeling of being invisible sometimes is like an affliction. But I do no longer allow it to spoil my life, as I can now recognise it for what it truly is, namely a cure for my self-centeredness and an antidote to my strong and stubborn pride. My newly found vision of being a great builder helps me to keep the right perspective on my children, my life and myself. I too am one of those people who show up at a job they may never see finished during their present lifetime. And I also am working on something that may never bear my name.
 
The author of my book wrote that no cathedrals could ever be built in our present times for the simple reason that nobody would be willing to make the required sacrifices. Come to think of it, I would not want my daughter to tell the friend she brings home from college for Thanksgiving: ‘My mother is wonderful! She got up at four in the morning to bake some homemade pies and then hand-basted a turkey for three hours. On top of that she cleaned the whole house to make it look and feel good.’ I do not care for building myself shrines and monuments. I just want my children to come home. And if there is anything my children say to their friends, I hope it will be something like: ‘You’re going to love it, I’m sure.’
 
No matter what anyone may say about us mothers, in the great plan of life we are playing an essential role. Without us our world could not continue to exist. We are the representatives and temporary substitutes of the Great Mother, the giver of life through all her daughters. Like her, lovingly and silently we give of our best, so that She and Her Angels take care of the rest. As co-creators with God, women are doing their share of building mighty cathedrals. No-one, except God, can see all the sacrifices and efforts this takes. But throughout the ages in truth hasn’t our world at all times been marvelling at what wonderful buildings women’s endeavours have brought about by bringing up their children?

An Exhausted Mother’s Prayer

Mother with child - Rays of Wisdom - Parents & Children - An Exhausted Mother's Prayer

 
 Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray that my sanity I shall keep.
For if some peace I do not find,
I’m pretty sure I’ll lose my mind.
 
I pray to find a little quiet,
That far from the daily family riot
I may lie back, not having to think
About what they’re putting down the sink,
Or who they’re with or where they’re at,
And what they might be doing to the cat.
 
I pray for time all to myself . . .
Did something just fall off a shelf?
Time for resting in my nice soft bed . . .
Oh no, she’s painted the curtain red!
A silent moment, but then – for goodness sake!
Did I just hear a window break?
 
I dream I need neither cook nor clean.
Well, I have the right to dream.
 With that I lay me down to sleep
And pray that my wits I shall keep,
But looking around I know
I must have lost them long ago.

The Homecoming

The Age of Aquarius is bringing us and our world
The long awaited spiritual homecoming.
It’s a time for leaving behind the false beliefs,
Superstitions and prejudices of the past.
By gazing deeply into the roots of our being,
Where we have come from and
Now are in the process of returning to,
We are discovering the true purpose
Of our earthly existence and the higher meaning
The periods that lie between these two events have served.
To perceive life with a clearer vision
And gain the higher perspective,
It is necessary to peer beyond the end of our nose
Into the spiritual background of life,
Where everything that happens in earthly life
And truly matters is brought into being.

What we are presently finding is faith, not ‘a faith’.
That would merely be like another religion.
The new faith is something much more
Basic and profound than any belief system
Our world could ever hope to be.
It is not a belief but a deep inner feeling
Of knowing and trusting that cannot
Be shaken or taken away by anyone or anything,
Because it is based on the spiritual knowledge
The Universe is helping us to find
Along the pathway of our life.
This provides us with the kind of faith
That trusts beyond any shadow of a doubt
That we always have been and forever shall be safe
In the loving hands of God and the Angels.

The new age brings us faith in the true meaning of the word,
Because we know from our own experiences
That in truth there is nothing for us to be afraid of
And that there is every reason for trusting the
Universe’s intentions that are based the infinite goodness of life.
This steadfastness of heart grows in us from the knowledge
That the Universal forces have always brought us
Whatever we truly needed
And that it will forever continue to do so.
The new faith is not something anyone can give us.
It can only grow organically within each one of us,
From their own experiences.

All together let’s fly on the mighty wings
Of God’s spiritual wisdom and truth
That’s now flowing ever more powerfully
Into every heart and soul and that of our whole world.
The knowledge we are finding is the tool we need
To release ourselves, each other and our whole world
From the suffering of earthly life
Into the greater freedom of the Aquarian Age
The freedom of knowing the truth.
Those who unselfishly giving of their best,
Are creating ever more positive Karma,
For themselves and our world,
Doing their share of establishing God’s kingdom on the Earth,
So that in the end nothing negative and destructive
Can return and touch us any more.

Peace be with us and our world,
Now and forever.
Amen

Hello All:
While the song is catchy, you might say a real toe-tapper; nonetheless some astrologers have quite a different view of the nature of the Age of Aquarius. Most all new-agers would rather have the "warm and fuzzy" Aquarian age. I prefer the truth.
We all must investigate for ourselves and determine where this age is taking us.

Our world is bound in the direction WE take it,
Peace,
Marty

Hi Marty

As someone born under Aquarius I resonate greatly with your vibe .... Uranus the bringer of revolution and rebellion ... all things becoming topsy turvy might work out in due course but we have a lot of hard work on ourselves to effect the change we want to make (to paraphrase Gandhi) .... else everything might vanish into thin (possibly nuclear) air ....

In hope, blessings but no guarantees

Dear Paul,

Should the will of the Highest decree that we have to learn our lesson through this experience, then no doubt it will be so. But, let's do our best that it won't become necessary. Remember, our thinking creates our reality. It has made our world the way it is now. So, let's tune into the positive stream of consciousness of our world and project nothing but kind and understanding, positive and loving thoughts into any kind of situation. No matter how hard this may turn out to be at times, you can be sure that no effort is ever wasted or goes unnoticed. 

With love - Aquarius

World Healing Prayer

Rays of Wisdom - Healers And Healing - World Healing Prayer

All glory, all honour and all praise be to You,
O Holy Trinity, Great Spirit, Father/Mother and
The Universal Christ and the Angels around Your throne.
We bless You, O golden light of the Heavens,
Sun of all Suns, Star of all Stars and light of all lights,
And we look up to You for guidance and protection in all things.

You are the Source of all life, wisdom, knowledge and truth,
And we worship You, we give You thanks
And praise You for Your Glory.
You are the Great Teacher of all worlds and beings,
Promised of old and now in flesh appearing
In human hearts and souls.

Flood us and fill us and our whole world and all other worlds
With the blessing and healing power of Your sacred love,
For You are the only born Son of the Great Father/Mother
And one of Your sparks is now coming alive in every heart and soul.
As we align ourselves with the sacred Fire of
Mother Earth and Father Sun, we return into the oneness with You.

Thus, over time, each spark in its own right grows into
A blazing flame of love that, with Your help,
Burns away the dross of all darkness and fear
That still lingers in the consciousness of humankind,
And absorbs the remnants of the clouds of ignorance
Of false beliefs and prejudices that to this day
Abound in us and our world.

May the gift of Your Divine radiance and illumination
Flow ever more strongly through each one of us
Into our world and all worlds, to uplift and transmute
All unwanted negative and destructive influences
Into blessing, healing and harmonising energies for all life,
In accordance with Your will and wishes.

In the name of love we ask this from You
On behalf of Mother Earth and all her Kingdoms,
And all other parts of Creation,
For You are the Kingdom and the Power and the Glory.
And so it shall be, forever and ever.

Amen

The Meek Shall Inherit The Earth



In St. Matthew 5:5 of the Jesus legend I told you: ‘Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the Earth.’ This message to your world is as valid and true now, as it was when I first gave it to you. Many of you, My human children, are among the meek who are patiently and willingly beavering away in the background of life working on your own healing process. Even if nobody in your world has ever heard or seen them, every step of the way we, the Angels, Masters, friends and helpers and I are observing, guiding and protecting them and keeping them safe.

In spite of all that the only true meek ones your planet has ever known were never human souls, but the small creatures of the Earth. Since time immemorial, they have been her true inheritors, especially the worms and insects that crawl about on her, and the microbes and bacteria that are invisible to earthly eyes without a microscope. Pay your respects to the essential work these labourers are doing for and with Mother Earth and therefore also on your behalves. They do not expect anything in return and demand nothing apart from being allowed to pursue the lives they have been given without too much human interference. These creatures are the great recyclers of the Earth who were there long before any of you appeared on the scene. They will still be there and continuing with their work long after every last one of you, my beloved human children, has outgrown their need for spending further lifetimes in physicality.

Once more I remind you that there is no death. There is only one life that is constantly pushing forwards and upwards in vast evolutionary cycles. It will forever move you, your world and all worlds on to new and higher levels of existence, bringing new learning and understanding through fresh first hand experiences for every single one of you. Many by now are realising the dreamlike quality of life in physicality. They are right, it really is a dream and an illusion, but nonetheless it has to be dealt with in the appropriate manner by each one of you. Your earthly education can only be left behind when your thought and behaviour patterns prove to Me that your time for doing so has come.

Each one of you has been placed on the Earth to eventually wake up to the realisation that you yourselves are God. It was you who created the earthly dream world and simultaneously you are the dreamer and the dream. You and I are one. I dream My dreams and speak My sacred words and prayers through you. Those who listen intently enough can join them and consciously become one with Me. Humankind’s age-old yearning for a peaceful world to come is a manifestation of My vision in you. Although thus far it had to remain but a dream, now the time has come when hand in hand with the Angels and Me you will be making this dream into a reality.

The wars of your world have been and still are My teaching aids to show all of you the value of peace, so that when it finally comes you are sure to cherish, value and support it with all your might. Having known wars and all manner of other troubles and strife in the past, you will then sing My praises for having found true and lasting peace, within and without. From then onwards this is going to be your most treasured possession. You will safeguard it and make sure that no-one and nothing can ever disturb and upset it again. Unfortunately, this is the only way I could teach you, my human children of the Earth, the value of peace.

You are experience. You are life itself and you are life experiencing itself. Over the ages, through your prophets I told your world many times that earthly life is but a dream. Yet, for a long time you could not grasp that these words were trying to make it clear to you that in truth you are always in Eternity. The deep inner understanding this requires can only grow in human souls, each through their own first hand experiences and learning from them. But now that you are at last waking up to the realisation of your true nature, I beg of you not to delay putting into practice whatever wisdom you find until you have reached what you once used to think of as Eternity. Your work is on the earthly plane. This is your school and here you must learn.

Those who diligently pay attention to the education it can provide will never fail and whatever may befall them, they cannot lose. There are no losers in the whole of My Creation. As long as you learn willingly and apply your whole being to making the Earth a better place for everybody, you can be sure of counting among life’s winners. There is every reason why you should trust Me implicitly because it always has been a vital part of My great plan of life that good must prevail in the end. No matter how dire things may sometimes look on the surface of life, good will eventually triumph over every bit of evil that still exists in you and your world. My light is My knowledge and wisdom, your power and Mine. I share them with you to assist you with conquering every last shred of darkness within and without.

Rest assured that you, your true eternal Self, will never, never die – it cannot die. As I rise into your conscious awareness and gradually take over your whole being, you will discover that you yourself, each one of you, are the resurrection. You are the life, the way and the truth. Live it, take possession of it and endeavour to use whatever comes your way for the highest good of all life, for you yourselves are God and everything that is in your world and all worlds has been placed into your care and ultimately is your responsibility. The people you encounter in our earthly existence and also the things you require for your stays there were never meant for you to cling onto like grim death. Each one is a gift from Me. You borrow them for a certain predestined period only. I expect you to return them to Me in at least as good condition, ideally in an improved one, as you once received them.

For as long as your race has populated My beautiful planet Earth, I have allowed you free access to all lifeforms that share it with you. Now that you are evolving into spiritual adulthood, your hearts and souls are beginning to understand Mother Earth’s suffering and dilemmas. As a result, the wise ones among you are now willing to take better care of her and all life that is in her loving embrace. Having learnt from the mistakes of the past, these pioneers and pathfinders for the dawning of the Age of Aquarius are showing their love and respect to all of you by acting in ever more responsible ways. By living simply and modestly, they have left behind their role of one of Mother Earth treasures’ plunderers and are now playing the part of one of her guardians and safe-keepers.

How Shall The Meek Inherit The Earth?



When our times in the realities of Earth life are drawing to their close, to enable us release ourselves we need to evolve into one of the lambs of God. This is done by following our inner guidance and meekly surrendering our earthly self to the protection and guidance of our Highest or God Self. As demonstrated by the legend of the Master Jesus, it is necessary to freely and willingly endure whatever it takes to settle our karmic debts. In due course we shall reap the just rewards for all our efforts. Read more about this in The New Golden Age Of Plenty.

For some time now our planet and all its life has been subject to a demanding spiritual transformation. Even the tiniest contribution one of us makes to alleviate the suffering of all Mother Earth’s kingdoms is of vital importance and counts. Every lifetime we are allowed to spend on the Earth is in truth a rare and precious gift. The present one is potentially an extra special one for those who have matured into spiritual adulthood and are ready to take on the duties this brings with it. If we get things right and work as hard as we can on overcoming and rising above the desires of our lower nature and its character, this lifetime could be the last one as a physical being.

In order to reach this evolutionary landmark words are not enough. It is necessary to walk our talk and prove through our thoughts, words and actions our willingness to shoulder the responsibility of being a caretaker and guardian of our planet. This means meekly obeying the instructions of our inner guidance where and when to exert our influence, to enable us to do our best and freely give of the gifts the Universe has bestowed upon us.

To help us reach this evolutionary point in the journey of earthly life, we need to bravely and persistently work our way through all inner and outer obstacles and adversities we encounter. This is made easier by firmly keeping our inner vision fixed on the Highest Star and the Greatest Light. This ensures that we are making good progress on the evolutionary spiral of life. The more we strive to live in peace and harmony with ourselves and everything that is in our world, the greater and more valuable a contribution we are making towards our race’s healing process.

As we know by now, thought is the most powerful force in the whole of Creation. Our thinking processes provide each one of us with the power to change our own individual energies as well as those of our whole world. The Age of Aquarius is the age of friendship and siblinghood with all life and we are here so that we may introduce and practise these ideals on the Earth plane. When we are working with kindness and love in our hearts for all God’s creatures, we are doing our share of converting humankind from a race of warriors of past ages into the peacemakers of the Aquarian Age.

This is how we prove ourselves worthy of being allowed to continue with our role as caretakers and guardians of the Earth in the new world that is slowly beginning to emerge. Our just reward we shall receive not in some kind of never-never land but in the here and now, through returning to the realities of our vastly changed home planet, if that is what we wish for our next lifetime. Those who choose this option will be allowed to take part in earthly life – whatever that may mean when the planet has completed its transformation and it has become a peaceful place where all live and work together in peace and harmony. Greed and selfishness will be unknown factors because everybody is taking what they need – no more and no less.

Before deciding what we may want for our future and whether this will include another lifetime on the Earth, from the world of spirit we shall be watching the proceedings there with the greatest interest. How good it will be to witness humankind’s age-old dream of peace, love and goodwill between people and nations at long last becoming a reality in earthly life. Just imagine and visualise it as a place where the characteristics and desires of everyone’s lower earthly nature have been overcome and left behind for good. As a result, sickness, violence and crime have disappeared and concepts like greed and selfishness are unknown factors. And that I believe is the true meaning of St. Matthew 5:5: ‘Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the Earth.’

Dear Aquarius

I know we have been around these houses lots of times before, and we always end up agreeing to disagree, but just in case there is anyone else out there looking in, I repeat myself by saying, it bothers me not inconsiderably that you quote from the fruits of many sources, whose roots you disparage or disagree with, or say are legend and without factual foundation, when there is historical evidence for those sources, and the fruits you pick from have an internal consistency and symmetry that are lost if taken out of context.

Best wishes

Paul

About My Writings

Rays of Wisdom – Astrology As A Lifehelp On The Healing Journey – About My Writings

My writings are an essential part of my contribution towards the process of healing the conflicts of our world, because in my view this can only come about through a better understanding of God’s true nature, our own and the higher purpose of our earthly existence. As many of you know, all my writings are intuitive and original ones. They represent my Highest or God Self, who communicates with you through me. There is no need for going into trance or anything of that nature – I simply write. My work is not based on any of the traditional sources. The inspiration for it comes directly from the Source of our being, who tells me that the spiritual teachings of other times were valid when they were given, because that was all humankind could understand in those days.

My writings came into being because increasing numbers of us had become ready for the truth of the Divine that has been waiting for aeons to flow directly into the consciousness of all who are capable of receiving it. That’s what my work since its earliest beginnings has consisted of. It embraces and honours the teachings of every one of the many belief systems that our world has seen throughout the ages. The aim of my writings has never been to wipe out any existing spiritual knowledge, but to add to it and in this way do my share of advancing humankind’s evolutionary progress. By updating and refreshing some of the ancient themes with new insights they are contributing to the expansion of our individual and collective consciousness.

I have not studied what any of the traditional sources have to say on various religious/spiritual themes, not in this lifetime anyway. Looking back from where I am now, this must have been an essential part of my preparation for the job I had come to do this time round. I did not know much about any of them for the simple reason that before my writing started, I had been too busy with things like running a home, bringing up children and in due course returning to full time work. My ignorance of the religious/spiritual traditions of our world ensured that I was unprejudiced against any of them. Therefore I was able to approach the wide field of the already existing spiritual knowledge with an open mind.

Now that I am equipped with the gift of hindsight it is not hard to see why it was that when I first started holding my insights down in writing, it felt like some kind of floodgates were opening inside me. The inflow of ideas to be developed and worked with was so great and the pace of writing so intense and fast that I would not have had the time to study any spiritual subject in the traditional manner.

Much later I found out that this is neither necessary nor desirable when one acts as a channel for the wisdom of the Highest. If anything, too much book knowledge and head activity can close down the heart-centre. This closes us off from the world of our feelings and therefore gets in the way of the intuitive process and stops us from developing into a clear and undisturbed communication channel. The heart-centre is the dwelling place of the Divine spark of our Christ nature. Even though at first this is there but in seed form, our Highest Self has always been with us and trying to guide us through the small still voice of conscience. When with the passing of time this aspect of our nature becomes stronger, it converses with us ever more clearly and speaks to us through the world of our feelings. The way we feel about something tells us whether it is right or wrong and what we hear or read is a truth or an untruth.
 
The teachings of every one of the old belief systems came into being just the same as my contributions to the pool of spiritual knowledge have been doing for around twenty years. The only difference between the scribes of the days of yore and modern ones is their writing instrument. The history of these appliances is so fascinating that I am including it.

As nothing anywhere happens without their intervention, undoubtedly everything connected with the art of writing was inspired by the Angels around the throne of God, who are in charge of us and our world. And that’s how it came about that around 4000 BC, during the Age of Taurus, lasting from about 4700 BC to 2500 BC, people scratched the surface of moist clay tablets with a bronze or bone tool. This was already quite a sophisticated way of making notes and communicating with the world around us, compared with the hammer and chisel we used in earlier lifetimes. It is likely that the inspiration for the idea of writing and the first attempts at this art-form came to our world during the Age of Gemini, from about 6900 BC to 4700 BC. Gemini, Libra and Aquarius are the Air signs. Each one of them in its different way is about improving our ways of communicating with each other through the spoken and written word.

As early as 5,000 years ago a Chinese Military Commander named Shen Loam, who was in charge of that Empires Western frontier, kept a written military log. Grateful for his assignment, he made it his duty to the Emperor to personally test every known edible plant for its food, non-food, medicinal and non-medicinal value. According to Shen Loam there are over twenty-five thousand edible plants on Earth. The written documentation of the tests proving that this is so were his gift to the Emperor in response to the honour of being elevated to Supreme Commander. The Chinese language is still basically the same as it was then, so it is fairly easy for current day Chinese to read these ancient documents.

Around 3000 BC the Egyptians developed a form of writing with pictures. For writing on papyrus scrolls scribes used thin reed brushes or reed pens.

1300 BC the Roman scribes wrote into thin sheets of wax on wooden tablets. A metal stylus was used and when the writing was no longer needed, it was rubbed out with the flat end of the stylus. In Asia scribes used a bronze stylus.
 
The Dark Ages. As well as writing on parchment, the Anglo-Saxons used tablets filled with wax for notes and planning the layout of large books. They wrote on the tablets with a metal or bone stylus with a pointed end. Words were rubbed out with its flat end. 
600-1800 AD. Europeans found that writing on parchment with a quill pen altered the style of their writing. At first they used capital letters all the time, but later a faster style with small letters was developed. Quill Pens first appeared in Seville, Spain, were the writing instrument from 600 to 1800 AD.
 
1790s. Pencil lead was invented at the same time in France and Australia.
 
1800-1850. A metal pen point was patented in 1803, but the patent was not commercially exploited. Steel nibs came into common use in the 1830s. By the 19th century metal nibs had replaced quill pens. By 1850 the use of quill pens was fading because steel nibs had been invented and were improved still by tipping them with hard alloys of Iridium, Rhodium and Osmium.
 
1884. The insurance broker Lewis Edson Waterman invented the first proper fountain pen.
 
1888-1916. The principle of the ball point pen dates back to the late 19th century when patents were taken out by John Loud in 1888 for a product to mark leather and in 1916 by Van Vechten Riesberg. Neither of these patents were exploited commercially.
 
1940s. The modern version of the ball point pen was invented by Josef Lazlo and Georg Biro. In the summer of 1943 the first commercial models were made. The rights to Lazlo's patent were bought by the British Government. The ball point pen proved to be more rugged than the fountain pen and because of this sales rocketed during World War II, when the military needed robust writing implements to survive the battlefield environment.

October 1945. The ball point pen was introduced to the U.S. market. The pen was sold as the first pen to write underwater. About 10,000 of them were sold at its launch in New York October 1945.

1953. The first inexpensive ball point pens became available when the French Baron Bich, the BIC Company, developed the industrial process for manufacturing ball point pens, which lowered the unit cost dramatically.
 
1960s. The fire or felt-tipped pen was invented by the Tokyo Stationery Company, Japan. Papermate’s Flair was among the first felt-tip pens to hit the U.S. market in the 1960s, and it has been the leader ever since. Following their initial success with felt-tips, manufacturers branched out with a variety of fibre-tipped instruments, including highlighters.
 
1980s-1990s. Roller Ball Pens. Roller ball pens have been made since the early 1980s. Unlike the thick ink used in a conventional ball point, roller ball pens employ a mobile ball and liquid ink which produces a smoother line. Technological advances during the late 1980s and early 1990s have greatly improved the roller ball’s overall performance since then.

1990s. Rubberised writing instruments to improve their grip were commonly used by companies.

From 1997 to date. Ring pens are mass produced. They are designed for writing without having to grip the pen with three fingers.

By the year 2016 scribes are blessed with access to computers, word processors and the worldwide web for distributing the messages they are bringing.

The following is my second part of my reply to Paul's posting 18th May 2016:

The Origin Of My Truth

Rays of Wisdom – Astrology As A Lifehelp On The Healing Journey – The Origin Of My Truth

‘In the fullness of time, we shall no longer learn from others or from books. We shall find all knowledge within ourselves, for we are part of all that ever has been and all that ever shall be,’ White Eagle. That’s what for many years has been happening to me. The knowledge the Angels are bringing you through me are coming from the feminine aspect of the Divine, the Great Mother and soul of the whole of Creation. This soul is the storehouse of the memories of everything that ever happened anywhere and the wisdom that was gained from it.

The human soul is the soft, sensitive and vulnerable aspect of our nature, women and men alike. Our soul is an integral part of the soul of our world as well as the Great soul, the Mother of all life. Through re-establishing our inner connection with the Goddess’s wisdom, in the fullness of time all earthly selves will eventually learn how to tap directly into Her knowledge. This is our Divine parents’ way of helping us to release ourselves from the bondage with earthly life by finding the answers to all the questions we may ever need to ask. The replies received from this source are the truth.

As we know by now, everything in the whole of Creation is connected with and responding to each other. All life is subject to the Universal laws and on the inner level everything is one and functions as one. In the great plan of life all things have their allocated space and happen at predestined times. Our race’s earthly education is not excluded from this. As early on God’s spiritual wisdom and truth are too hard to grasp for earthly minds, with the passing of time on the Earth it has been changing and presenting itself in many different forms.

This explains the need for the new myths and legends that appeared from time to time. They are living proof that spiritual knowledge should not be stored in waterproof containers and that there is no point in trying to be too precise in defining it. The best we can do whilst playing the role of earthlings is to accept that the Divine plan and its laws are perfect and harmonious. The evolutionary process sees to it that everything in the end works out for the highest good and greatest joy of all, regardless of the fact that God’s way of going about it are frequently extremely hard to comprehend for human minds.

For some time now the Age of Aquarius has slowly but surely been moving us and our world forwards into a period during which all of us eventually will be freeing ourselves from slavery and oppressions of all kinds, especially religious/spiritual ones. The autonomy of the new age consists of being free to believe and follow what our heart, the dwelling place of the living God within, tells us is true. Let’s take a closer look at the structure of the energies of the Aquarian Age. The deeper we move into this age, the more powerfully they will be influencing us and everything else in our world.

Astrologically the heart is the domain of Leo, the Sun’s own sign. Aquarius and Leo are polar opposites in the zodiac. One is the sleeping partner of the other. Aquarius as an Air sign is of the head and its energies on their own are cold, logical and reasoning. In contrast to this Leo as a Fire sign is of the heart, loving, warm and feeling. Together they are the perfect combination for bringing God’s wisdom and truth down to the Earth. An excessive amount of Leo’s fiery nature, which may itself show as too much and misplaced enthusiasm, Aquarius cools down to a warm and agreeable temperature. In return for this Leo adds the warmth of its love to the coldness of the Aquarian energies. The combined force of the two signs makes the Divine Waterbearer’s knowledge pleasant and agreeable to us earthlings.

It takes many lifetimes round the zodiac and in Leo to acquire the ability to love wisely from the heart, the way our Creator loves us. Young and less experienced souls during their times in Leo tend to put loved ones on a pedestal to worship and adore them. This way of loving eventually lifts itself onto ever more highly elevated levels. The more we mature spiritually, the more the energies of Leo and Aquarius in us join forces and work as one. During the early stages of our earthly education Leo’s extreme selfishness and egotism are our hallmark. But with the passing of time when our time in physicality nears its end, this transforms itself into a love for humankind that worships and adores the One who brought all of us into being, who nurtures and cares for us and is sure to continue providing for any needs we may ever have.

For as long as our earthly self still functions predominantly on the outer level of our being, the desires of Air and Fire, head and heart, being polar opposites, are frequently at loggerheads with each other. But once we operate as well on the inner as the outer plane, they learn how to work as one, ever more peacefully and harmoniously. Aquarius represents the voice of God, which by the way I only found out recently. Leo rules the human heart, which is the receptacle of the creative ideas that are constantly flowing forth in great abundance from the heartmind of the spiritual Sun above and beyond the Sun in the sky above us, directly into our human hearts.

That’s how God’s wisdom and truth are presently finding their way ever more freely and powerfully into any heart that is open to receive it. This brings us the knowledge we need to release ourselves and our world into the religious/spiritual freedom of the Aquarian Age mentioned earlier. For some time this kind of information was given through spiritual mediums, like Grace Cooke. But because we are constantly moving forwards and upwards on the evolutionary spiral of life, this by now has changed into direct transmissions from the Highest levels of life. Read more about this in the section ‘Learning To Fly’, either here or by following the link at the end of this chapter.

My writings have always been part of this new approach. They represent my truth, which never was based on speculations, myths and legends. It consist of the knowledge that for some time has been flowing with ever increasing force from the source of our being directly into the individual and collective consciousness of our world. What a long time this kind of knowledge had to wait until the time was right for at last revealing itself intuitively and directly to us earthlings.

Dear Aquarius

The above post was placed in a Moderator Alert section (not by me). Your posts had also been blocked pending moderation; I have removed that block currently. I am currently reading and reflecting on the thread and your last two posts in particular, and have temporarily approved them pending further reflection and any others' views.

But what I would say is that, as Paul indicates above, it seems strange that you should be so negative about 'book-learning', on this University site, which you are using to promote your ideas; and further, those ideas make use of other traditions that you seem to seem to disavow, as well as resuming the promotion of a particular religious society - the teachings of White Eagle, whilst casting aspersions on others.

I am minded to remove this post and might freeze the thread as it is going over repetitive territory, sometimes without due acknowledgement of past discussions, but will pend for further reflection.

Kindest regards

Ophiucus
