In entering, we find the entity coming under the influence of
Venus, Uranus, Jupiter, Mercury. In the astrological
aspects, these would, in a manner, be contradictory to that
as has been builded in the entity in the present experience.
Also there will be seen variations in the application of the
entity's experience in various other experiences in the
earth's plane. So, in this instance, again we would find,
astrologically, astronomically, or even in numerology, would
not coincide with the experiences of the entity, save as a
general manner, or as may be termed - in common parlance -
the variation as is exhibited in this entity's experience
would prove a RULE that may be made helpful; though, as has
been seen, a LIFE experience may be made MORE helpful for the
entity. Then, disregarding the application of will's
influence in the present experience, for a moment, we would
find:
One naturely, or naturally, attuned to high emotions in life;
whether this be of a secular nature or of the higher
vibrations.
One that has ever been able to find beauty in EVERY element,
save when condemning self or condemning actions in another;
yet ever feeling the vibrations have something to DO with the
individual; as would color or harmony of any nature; yet
applying will and will's influence to these very same innate
abilities (or preferably they should be called QUALITIES) the
entity then becomes able to harmonize same, so that in their
synchronization there arises good from WHATEVER experience a
body, or an entity, may experience, will that entity but USE
same as a stepping-stone, rather than a stumbling-block, or a
fallen column.
In the experiences as have been had in the earth's plane,
these alter or change much in the various experiences of the
entity, so that there may be seen many variations, and at
times even contradictory EVIDENCES TO the body, to the
body-entity, and same has at times become the rough hewn
pathway that has led the entity on. Even in mental and
physical anguish has the entity DEVELOPED in the manner of
application of the experience to self's OWN interest; not
selfish in motive, not bigoted in act, not wayward in
thought, but tempered and temperate in all things.
In the astrological urges - these are evidenced in the
present experience, and these be the applications in the
present experience of both the INNATE feeling or experience
and the application of will, or self, TO that experience.
In Venus - love for the fellow man; not as pity - rather as
honoring the abilities of the individual in the direction as
may be taken by that individual for the development of self
as a whole toward others.
In Uranus is seen those of the occult and mystic nature,
tending to either raise one's vision to a high degree or
groveling in the slough of despondency. In will's lift up,
look up, raise up, has ever been the entity's INNATE
expression. WILL has influenced the entity MUCH in this
direction, and in the hours of greatest despair has come the
light that is ever available when a body-entity allows the
divine - of which the soul is the spark, or portion - to
enter in and make his abode there.
In Jupiter comes the bigness of purpose, the strength and
might that either overcomes or is subdued by self, making in
understanding, the ability to conquer in His name.
In Mercury the mental influences are abroad, either for the
uplifting in the activities of the mental being, or turned
into those of selfish natures.
In the application of self, this entity has gained the
ability of discernment, and in the way of using the LITTLE in
HAND to gain the greater UNDERSTANDING of the whole.
In music the entity finds MUCH solace, MUCH that bridges
those distances - whether of the mental or of the spiritual
forces. In same the attunement of self may be brought the
nearest to the applications of the innate FORCES of self, and
to the ENTITY the strains of same - whether in that of the
deep vibrations, of those that raise up and up - or those of
the higher chords that bind - carry for the entity the
ATTUNEMENT of self in the sphere or element, or PHASE of
experience the entity seeks apace. Well were THIS developed
to a more acuteness IN this PRESENT experience, for the
acumen of experience to the entity is gained MUCH more in a
manner that may become concrete ensamples of the attunement
of a soul with the heavenly, or the happy, choir.
In color harmony - again - these often clash. In the harmony
of strength or might the entity falters. This may be seen
from the experiences of the entity. In a word, MUCH has been
made of the PRESENT experience, and it will lie within the
own desire of the entity as to whether the return in earth's
experience becomes necessary or not; for in Arcturus' forces,
these become all magnified in will's force, and the
conquering of self is truly greater than were one to conquer
MANY worlds, and IS conquering those of OUR, or of our SUN'S
own attributes.
In experiences in the earth's plane:
In the one before this we find not so great a way off, for in
the period when that dethroned monarch [Charles II?] ruled
in France. The entity then an attendant, and an aide to,
the offspring OF those that suffered physically, and gained -
even through the suffering. The fear of power, of might,
without the divine influence of its rule, becomes INNATE in
the entity from that which the entity suffered during that
period. In the name Maithae.
In the experience before this we find in that land now known
as Greece, during that period when Xenophon carried on after
the return from the eastern land. The entity then among
those whom service was made and given by that ruler, or one
in power. Gaining and losing through the experience.
Gaining for the faith and service rendered many during the
trials of that waiting. Losing in the mis-application of the
power GAINED by being put in an exalted position. Many were
the experiences for the entity followed THEN in the
aggrandizing of BODILY or PHYSICAL desires, and the dance -
the wine cup and revelry, in the desire for plaudit for
plaudit sake, sought by the entity. In the present, these -
we find some come among those tempting; yet be not hard upon
those who seek in such manners to find expressions of
themselves, for they know NOT what they do. In the name
Xercia.
In the one before this we find in that land now known as
India. The entity then among those when there came the
destruction of the peoples in the valleys by those who WOULD
make rule from the hills. The entity then among those that
were CONQUERED in body, but NOT in mind - and little by
little the entity, through that experience, brings to bear
such influence, such a condition, as to bring the peoples who
would become the rulers in accord with the mental and the
spiritual BUILDERS of that land, and OF the house came
Abraham. Of the body came that leader, THAT people. In the
name Terahe. NOT the father, but the mother. [GD' note: EC
spelled T-e-r-a-h-e. She was the wife of TERAH who was the
father of Abraham. See Gen. 11:26-32.] In this present
experience the entity finds history, travel, seeking of
knowledge, study of stars, to the answer of a SOMETHING not
wholly understood; for in that period the great outdoors
became the dwelling place of the entity, and much gain in
position, power, abilities to aid, abilities to control,
abilities TO lead. The entity became the real BUSINESS head
of the then Chaldeans that arose later in the land.
In the one before this we find in that land when divisions
arose, now known as Egyptian, and the entity then in the
household of the ruler as was deposed when those of Arart
came in from the north. The entity then that one who became
the recluse and hermit in the halls of the house of worship,
learning the peoples first of the CHANT for the dead; and the
BOOK OF THE DEAD were a portion of the ENTITY'S own
inscribing. In the name Itasldhoia. In the experience the
entity lost and gained, lost and gained. Gained in the
latter experience, when there were harmonies set up and the
chants were again heard in what later became tombs. In the
present, much of that INNATE in the entity of music and color
is a PORTION of the entity's inner being, and one from
outside may play upon the chords of the entity's feeling in
word, or song, or stringed instruments. Not the fanfare of
the trumpet calls, but in STRINGS MUCH is felt.
In the one before this we find in the land known as Atlantis.
The entity among those who held for the subserving of the
ideals as to turning same into self-glory, self-satisfying;
knowing much of the abilities of the peoples during the
period of destruction, and destroyed PHYSICALLY with the
first destruction that came to that peoples of THAT period;
yet holding - holding - aloft, that the relationships of
individuals' experience should be in accord with the divine,
rather than using the divine for SELFISH motives; whether as
fame, fortune, power, or BODILY pleasure. In the name Asma.
In the abilities that the entity attains in the present, as
to accord and the desires of the entity towards the people of
the period, are still held aloof as worshipfulness of the
power used for destructive rather than constructive forces.
In the present, the abilities lie in the INNATE forces as the
teacher, the guider, towards attuning self in harmony with
the divine from within, and HARMONIZING self in color.
Ready for questions.
(Q) How can the entity best help humanity?
(A) In aiding to gain for individuals, NOT GROUPS, the
knowledge of the individual's attunement in its individual
field for development; that is, as the entity goes about to
and fro about the earth, there are attractions and
detractions of individuals. Help THAT individual to find
SELF'S own relationship to the divine; for in self must come
the response of a need for such before it may be wholly
awakened in an entity - for true indeed is that given, they
who would seek God must believe that He IS, and that self
must SOME time, SOMEWHERE, account for that as has been LENT
to the servant.
We are through.
