<p> </p>

<p>Your spiritual path begins when you become aware of living a twofold life; apart from the limiting circumstances of your everyday life, everything you do serves the development of your inner essence, which, in its abundance and depth, mirrors the richness and wealth of divine inspiration. Within your inner essence, you overcome isolation and loneliness as you link into the long chain of those before you - those who have unfolded and fulfilled their humanity and, thus, have pioneered the way to the New Earth.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>You root in the center of the earth; the power for your path and growth stems from there. The vision of the South-East, however, comes from The New Earth, home to all those who had seen their life as a mandate to be fulfilled. Their impulses constitute a pleroma of possibilities, which is yet accessible and available to everyone who wishes to live as true human beings - a twofold life between Heaven and Earth - valuing human community, humanity and the common work of earth as more important than the goals of everyday survival.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>To choose a spiritual path demands innocence, the confidence and trust needed to walk it, openness, and the ability to recognize both inspiration and help along the way. Out of innocence, trust and openness, your vision slowly will unfold and gradually disclose itself to you. If you are able to raise it to the plane of words, it will then become part of your inner essence. In this way, as it becomes understandable, clear and useful for your fellow human beings, your vision will also become part of the emerging new time and world.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>In your imagination, look into the nocturnal sky. Feel the connection between the center of the earth and the North Star - imagine a beam of light stretching from earth, from where you stand, to the North Star. The North Star opens like a gate and allows you to see the beyond. What do you see, what image arises? Take your vision as both the inspiration for, and a hint of, the task that underlies your path, and which makes you a twofold human being. Ask yourself - which ancestors can be a help to you in realizing your task, as you link into and continue with their work?</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Finally, while the gate of the North Star starts to close, invoke all the ancestors, ask them to stand by our side with their wisdom and power so that we may carry on the work of the earth into the future, making the connection between our existence on earth and our spiritual home in the new earth constant and enduring.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>In the Aquarian Age, the unfolding of Spirit finds its completion in the revelation of humanity in the work of the earth. Today, on the Feast of the South-East and as it is on any feast, heaven is open. You partake of an impulse of completion that allows you, innocently and in inner openness, to touch upon the freedom and abundance of spirit. This impulse will become embodied, increasing the radiance of your inner essence as your task becomes word.</p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p><img alt="feast-of-the-south-year-of-the-pluto.png" src="http://www.schoolofwisdom.com/meditation_rituals/2011/12/23/feast-of-the-south-year-of-the-pluto.png" class="mt-image-center" style="text-align: center; display: block; margin: 0 auto 20px;" height="305" width="600" /></p><p>In the Aquarian Age there are no more pre-formed and pre-decided paths; there is only the seizing and actualizing of possibilities which originate in the Divine. </p>

<p>God is no longer "almighty Lord and Ruler" - in order to recognize and reach the meaning of life, and of creation's all-pervading spiritual unity, what is needed is neither spiritual cleansing and asceticism,  nor obedience and submission. In our new age, God is no more the highest actuality but, rather, the highest potentiality - and it is man who actualizes this potentiality. Through this actualization man experiences God as friend, as the one who, at any moment, can open him to the possibilities of the next step. </p>

<p>Acknowledge the twofold meaning of your actions! Even in your everyday life, your actions can be a playful and creative contribution to the Great Work of Earth, aiming at the highest potential of our times. This potential encompasses the becoming of true humanity which, because of the actualization of God's potentiality through man, is the simultaneous becoming of God.   </p>

<p>The way leads from darkness to light, it leads from below upwards and, according to the freedom of both man and God, it is not predetermined. This means that each step, as integration into the unity and spiritual whole of creation, happens out of the "not-known" - the true gate to the pleroma of divine potentiality.</p>

<p>Today, in this year of Pluto, with the return of light you renew trust in your own path. When looking into the future, it is ever in darkness; however, looking back into the past you can envision it as a chain of events you have experienced as an expression of something which, at the time, perhaps you were only vaguely aware of it as possessing meaning, or as being a contribution to something new.   </p>

<p>This "something" new is indeed our becoming age; the twofold life is its norm, where the mundane occurrences of everyday life fall together with the embodiment of spiritual meaning.</p>

<p>On your path, trust and innocence stand by your side as the power of the sacred plants. Just as plants grow and draw their energy from earth and light, your life also is carried by earth's power and heaven's seeds of light, thus ensuring the unfolding of your inner being in ever new ways.</p>

<p>Try to remember the first time when things and events around you started to make sense - when they seemed to conform in a meaningful way. It is important to put this into words, as the way is only recognizable in looking back. Through looking back you foster your trust that a next step will be disclosed out of the inner being's need to unfold. </p>

<p>At the moment of utmost darkness, the light returns. This is why despair, uncertainty, despondence and angst are not so important. As uncomfortable as they are for the outer layers of your life, they point to the essential aspect of darkness, the not-knowing, which is the source of your freedom. It is not-knowing which, counter to all practical difficulties and inner objections, will advance and support you on the path to becoming truly human.</p>

<p>On today's Feast of the South, in the year of Pluto, all the nine impulses of the pleroma are accessible to your choice. Before the invocation, stand under trees somewhere in the Earth Sanctuary. Along your inner axis, let your breath descend to the center of the earth and then rise into heaven, thus making earth's power and the returning light of heaven meet within you. Then, choose one of the nine numbers which will constitute your life's main impulse in the coming weeks and months. Also, see the number you choose as a reminder for your contribution to our age, which develops and emerges along four parameters: that of man slowly becoming truly human, of mutual helping and sharing within the community, that of the common Work of Earth shared by all those of good will, and the merging of the individual's inner being with the true subject of the Divine.</p>

<p>Don't make the mistake of reducing yourself by only acknowledging the day-side of your consciousness. Don't fall for the mistaken belief that you plan and rationally steer the course of your life; you are always more than what you familiarly think of yourself.</p>

<p>Behind everything that happens in your life, behind all those events which you experience as having meaning and making sense, there lies the working of a dream - your dream - which, in ever new ways, is actualizing your path as you traverse its course. Don't allow the dazzling light of everyday life to obstruct your access to dream, to the realm of eternal becoming where the borders between things are blurred and diffuse, where the answers to questions become images and creative stories, and where, ultimately, your own unfolding story has its source, transferring dream's magic into reality.</p>

<p>Just as your story originates in the realm of dreams, so does the working of the earth's spirits manifest through dream - thus, your vitality derives from there.</p>

<p>The power of the spirits of earth proving of worth in practical tasks .....</p>

<p>The dexterity and cleverness of the spirits of air.....</p>

<p>The inability of the spirits of water to limit themselves to what rationally makes sense, thus helping you to break through those unnecessary barriers you build up to resist the unexpected and unforeseeable.....</p>

<p>The intensity and joy of the spirits of fire who let you experience true communion and connection with all beings.....</p>

<p>All of these constitute the origin of your vitality, the source of your versatility, the power of your inspiration and provide the help necessary for luck in being able to live life as contribution to the work of the earth.</p>

<p>Today, in the year's South-West, the door between the worlds has opened. See with your inner eye a door; the door separating reality from potentiality, day from night and waking from dreaming. Ask yourself: what is the dream that becomes realized in your life? Then step through the door! Whatever you see and perceive, try to formulate it in a sentence that makes sense for you, thus giving you clarity, trust and direction. Use this sentence in the next week to remind you as to where from you always obtain energy, help and renewal.</p>

<p>Today, all the earth's spirits are with you. Remember their names, greet them and invite them to support you in the weeks to come so that the courage of the trolls, the inspiration of the dwarfs, the powerful wishes of the fairies and the joy of the elves can be with you. The work of the earth does not require any hard striving or false effort; merely openness and an understanding that you need luck and help in order to actualize your dream and be able to work. That help is always there and accessible as long as you ask for it, and are ready for it.</p>

Inspiration is accessible to us through playing; no effort is needed in this - just innocence, attention, openness and joy. Inspiration is the carrier of meaning, the embodiment of which leads to your work, your mandate and contribution to the work of earth where you unite yourself with all those who see our common reality on earth as concerned with mutual fostering and communal ascent.<br /><br />The revelation of the New Time is one of community - where humanity, mutual support and fostering, and communication are at the center. In this way the space of community becomes transformed into a space where its axis can switch and change, such that in everyday life the potential of the ascent can be felt and sensed. The ascent is a progression towards the New Earth as the highest expression of our New Time, and of the community of man with the divine.<br /><br />For our feast of today, it is not necessary to find an inner image. Simply try, in a state of inner silence and void, to call those persons to your inner eye who - either in their work or as individuals - are convincing to you. Then, as accurately as possible, formulate what it is you deem important in them. Take this as your inspiration and conscious impulse for your work in the weeks to come.<br /><br /> </p>

        <![CDATA[<p>The Feast of the North in the Year of Pluto demands of you that you gain clarity and become aware of the mysterious center - that which constitutes your access to the New Earth, the highest potential of the becoming time. Make quiet all your wishes and any preconceived notions you may have about your life and your work. Quietness leads to clarity and, within the great blueprint of your life, gives you a sense of the center that nourishes your work, which, in turn, allows you partake in the New Earth as expression of the new becoming age.</p>

<p>Our center is, at once, both nothing and something. As nothing it allows you to maintain the relationship with heaven and earth, to be open, recognize and grasp true inspiration, and to distinguish this from mere imagination. As something, the center points to your inner essence - which is never finished and complete; it is always "becoming" through the continuous integration of the creative impulses of heaven and earth with your work.</p>

<p>Wherever your work furthers, transforms, enlightens or touches; whenever it happens without effort and ambition - it is there and then that the clarity gained and realized in your inspired work and inner essence comes to true expression.</p>

<p>Always try to be simple. It is lessening and reducing that lead to clarity and to the center; not increasing and adding complexity. Through diminishing and simplifying, the secret of the North is revealed as a revelation of the world's liveliness, talking to you and pointing to the wellspring at the center, which is the origin of your working and spiritual life.</p>

<p>Remember an event of your life which had meaning for you. Let it emerge in front of your inner eye. Ask yourself if the event could be an access for you to this New Earth at which your work is aiming. In your vision see a gate in front of the night sky, step through it, and wait for what is revealed to your inner eye - for what message you are able to perceive.</p>

<p>Our time demands clarity in thinking. This clarity does not serve the increase of knowledge, but rather a reconnection with the center - through which, in true reality, we find our home and never lose our connection with heaven and earth. It is our center that reveals itself as a mysterious gate through which the sleeping potential of time becomes accessible as winged vision and hope in the new becoming age.</p>

At the Feast of the East in the Year of Pluto you are called upon to remember that the plan and design of your life is always realized through, and nourished by, the voice of inspiration - a voice which is talking to you, actually, at every moment you are ready to listen.<br /><br />In entering the new epoch, a decisive step has been made by mankind. Meaning is no longer realized simply through commitment to a religious denomination or belief system, but rather through friendship with God and the community of friends who join together, playfully, in the Work of the Earth. In this new epoch mankind has reached maturity and full responsibility; these are now the times of those who understand what they are doing as their contribution to the development of humanity, as an expression of playful joy and freedom, and as both enriching the world and anchoring meaning in this, the becoming community.<br /><br />Meaning is not located somewhere outside; it does not need to be searched for or grasped. Meaning arises through the actualization of possibilities and these, in turn, must be referred back to the origin of pure potentiality in the not-yet, which - because it is still ungraspable, indistinct and vague - allows the space for actualization. <br /><br />Actualization, here, also means renewal. It means not to set trust in what has already become - but, rather, trusting in the not-yet and in an ever present accessibility of the plethora of possibilities. It is our habits, shyness, inertia and, above all, our fears which block our view. <br /><br />Therefore, let go of your suffering and your belief that circumstances may have a conditioning grip on your life. The world around you has less sharp contours than you may think; it is less clearly confined and objective. Your life and what surrounds it is movement which occurs continuously, from one moment of openness, inspiration and renewal to the next.<br /><br />All the impulses of actualization are accessible through the pleroma of the nine numbers springing forth from the creative not-yet. Ask yourself which of these numbers expresses itself in what you do in your life at the moment. What is the potential of this number? Every number constitutes an impulse of realization as well as a connection to the numinous origin. In envisioning and consciously deciding on a choice of one of the numbers, you are tuning your life and your actions to the process of the ever-new actualization of meaning.<br /><br />Be aware that whatever gets done or becomes known originates in a subject. There is a "Who" behind all knowledge or action, and this Who is not solid, fixed or complete. Like meaning seeking new actualization at all times, your Who - who you are - is also always in the process of becoming. The East nourishes your becoming inner essence; so take your inspirations, ideas and random thoughts seriously, as these help you to overcome static habits and limitations which can hinder the growth of your inner essence and this, our new time to unfold.<br /> <div><br /></div>]]>

<p>When the moon is gone, all our phantasies are gone. there is only reality and the light of the sun. that means, at the lunar eclipse no false images of oneself, no phantasies or wishful thinking can distort the perception of this ones essence.  so tomorrow one can get a very clear glance at ones essence, everything is about clearly and innocently perceiving  what the seed of light (ones radiating spiritual essence) really is which one has worked on to embody and share with the emerging community of mankind.</p>

<p>The essence connects the eternal self with the temporal I, the temporal person, so in a way always anew embodying the eternal in our reality here, while forming the spiritual body to partake in the true community of mankind in the great image of the man in the universe.</p>

<p>The expression of the Feast of the South in the Year of Saturn is of trust in your inner being.
This inner being is a manifestation of your path and, it is from your work - on and for this
path - that your inner being is formed and develops, thus allowing you to partake in the
community of the emerging age.</p>

<p>At this time, the return of the light signals the moment of renewal for both your path and task.
These two fundaments of your inner being, your path and your task, obtain nourishment from
your connection with the creative impulses of Earth. Earth is the origin and common ground
of all of life; it is from Earth' s darkness and vastness that motives arise - motives which are
waiting to be grasped, expressed and transformed by you, thus enriching your personal life,
the lives of your fellow beings and, in the end, the whole communal reality of Earth.</p>

<p>Entrust yourself to the darkness of Earth, in devotion, without knowing, so that your path
may become clear and you will be capable of doing. In your own inner darkness, you are
connected with Earth' s darkness. Precisely when trusting, in innocence and not purporting to
know, will your inner darkness become the origin of light which accompanies the unfolding
of your inner being. This, your inner being, is connected with the whole in a way that exceeds
any of your conscious imaginings. So, for a moment, halt all your wishes and thoughts in
order to reveal your being, in the openness and void of inner stillness, as the seed of the
returning light.</p>

<p>With your mind' s eye, look at the nocturnal disc of the moon, then let your glance sweep
across the horizon, finally turning it inward and downward, towards the center of the Earth.
Think of the center of the Earth, and ask Earth for a vision which will articulate the returning
light of your inner being. Couch this vision in words in order to bring it into reality, and also
try to understand the number which underlies it. Not only is your inner being expressed as a
vision based on the unfolding light, but also as a number. The numerical aspect is what allows
you to understand how the impulse of your vision can be made communal, thus serving the
becoming community of mankind - in healing or creating, researching or caring, undertaking
or communicating, fighting, organizing or planning.</p>

<p>You are simultaneously nothing and something. Your nothing constitutes the gate to Earth' s
creative impulses, to her motives which, together with the intentions of Heaven, will always
align your path with the unfolding meaning of the whole. Your something is your inner being
which shines like the sun in her return, renewing all of life. This light of your inner being
awakens the world to shine, too, and becomes the foundation of all true relationship and true
community.</p>

<p>Today, at the Feast of the South, your inner being reveals itself in a threefold way - as light,
vision, and number - which results from your communion with Heaven and Earth, and hints at
the meaning and sense which you, and all people with good intentions, seek to realize in our
emerging community on Earth.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p><img alt="spiritual-freedom-between-light-and-good.jpg" src="http://www.schoolofwisdom.com/meditation_rituals/images/spiritual-freedom-between-light-and-good.jpg" class="mt-image-center" style="text-align: center; display: block; margin: 0pt auto 20px;" height="300" width="611" />
The Feast of the South-West in the Year of Saturn constitutes the essential moment in which the spiritual responsibility you carry meets with all potential, ever held in readiness, in the universe. Spirit is unconditional - it knows no cause nor necessity; Spirit is the unfolding of the game that the Creative plays with itself. So, bethink yourself which impulse you experience as a constant driving force that links you with the future. Name this impulse consciously and, then, let the happiness and joy of playing come to the fore.</p>

<p>Today, on the Feast of the South-West, we are carried by joy and blessed with luck - joy in being a part of the game which originates in the infinite ground of creative potential. Let go of those identifications which tie you to the past; try not to change or do anything intentionally. Simply be open in the moment, receptive, submitting yourself to the coincidences which, as the expression of a universe at play, inevitably will find you.</p>

<p>You are positioned between Heaven and Earth. Your spiritual inner being has grown this year, like a plant towards the light, obtaining nourishment from the motives of Earth (which integrate everything into the becoming community), and direction from the images of Heaven. Today is the day the flower of this plant opens. Spirit reveals itself as future to you, transforming into a path that articulates your inner being.</p>

<p>Be light, be a dancer between the worlds! Between day and night, sun and moon, and in front of a horizon that widens into infinity see yourself as a plant ready to flower, rooted in the earth and growing towards heaven. The flower unfolds and receives.... what? Which images arise, which sentence do you hear, which words?</p>

<p>Relate everything you see or hear back to that one impulse in your life which you think of  as being constant beyond all change. Relate, again, this impulse to one of the elements  - earth, water, fire or air. In so doing the beings of the South-West will start to help you, lending wings to you and to your work, granting you good luck and joy.</p>

<p>Spirit is eternal future - thus, do not let negative occurrences of the past hold you back. Your vision shows you the openings, not the limitations, of everyday reality. It shows you the possibility of transformation; not the seemingly unalterable and determining constraints of necessity.</p>

<p>Freedom arises through your openness, your responsibility and choice, and through knowledge gained through trust - knowledge that you are not alone, that the spirits approach you with their help, today, at the feast of the unfolding flower of potential, when the doors connecting the worlds stand wide open. You will feel this help as joy and cheerfulness, not only today, but also in the weeks to come, as the spirit's support in the actualization of your vision will continue to be with you.</p>
