VIRGO FULL MOON

Exoteric ruler: Mercury (4th Ray)
Esoteric ruler: The Moon (4th Ray)
Rays 2 and 6 are transmitted through Virgo.
Virgo is the cosmic mother because she represents the negative pole to
positive spirit.
The symbology of Virgo concerns the whole goal of the evolutionary
process, which is to shield, nurture, and finally reveal the hidden
spiritual reality. The mother protects the germ of the Christ life.
Matter guards, cherishes and nurtures the hidden soul.
Eve is the symbol of the mental nature, and of the mind of man
attracted by the lure of knowledge to be gained through the experience
of incarnation.
Isis stands for this same expression on the emotional plane.
Mary carries the process down to the plane or place of incarnation,
the physical plane, and there gives birth to the Christ child.
In these three Virgins and these three Mothers of the Christ, you have
the history of the formation and the function of the three aspects of
the personality through which the Christ must find expression.
The sign of Virgo itself stands for a synthesis of these three
feminine aspects.
The keynote which most accurately embodies the truth as to the mission
of Virgo is:
"Christ in you, the hope of glory."
"I am the mother and the child. I, God, I, matter am."
==================================
Speaking symbolically, and remembering that symbols always veil a
truth, it might be stated that, at the time of the full moon it is as
if a door were suddenly opened wide, which at other times stands
closed. Through that door, aspirants and disciples can contact
energies which are otherwise not easily available. Through that door,
approach can be made to Those Who guide the race and to truth and
reality, which at other times is not possible. Of this, all who stand
on either side of the door can avail themselves, and this will be so
increasingly.
At the time of the full moon festivals, the moon stands on the far
side of the earth, away from the sun. This leaves a full, direct and
unimpeded relationship between the earth and the sun, the source of
our life, energy and consciousness, symbolic of the relationship
between the human personality and the soul.
Each festival covers a special period of five days (two days
preceding, the day of the Festival, and the two following days), with
the climax on the day of the Festival itself, when women and men of
goodwill can cooperate much more effectively than at other times, in
meditation and through the direction of energy, with the spiritual
Hierarchy and those who stand behind the evolution of consciousness of
our planet.

Contact' by Alice A. Bailey, from the Arcane School

"Everything is being rapidly brought to the surface - the good and the
bad, the desirable and the undesirable, the past and
the future...; the plow of God has nearly accomplished it's work; the
sword of the spirit has severed an evil past from the
radiant future, and both are seen as contributory in the eye of God;
our material civilization will be seen as giving place
rapidly to a more spiritual culture; our church organizations, with
their limiting and confusing theologies, will soon... [become]
clear, factual, intuitive and non-dogmatic."
"...that which is old and undesirable must go, and of these
undesirable things, hatred and the spirit of separateness
must be the first to disappear." The Tibetan

3 quotes regarding the money/stock markets, copied from Share
International:
"…Volatility will remain high as one crisis leads to another...
Despite the inevitable attempts by the ‘men of money’ to continue the
old ways of unfettered free markets, Capitalism as we have known it is
dead.
“...Men must change dramatically the present way of life, & embrace
simpler forms of living & working. Gone are the days in which men
raped & ravaged the planet at will, without a thought for the
generations still to come, neither seeing nor caring ought for the
environment...”
“...the dissolution of the stock markets... will release the pressures
now being imposed on governments by currency speculation, & allow a
fair & equitable trading system to be developed. Short term measures
must recognize the special & urgent need of poorer nations for succor.
In particular, the problems of hunger & disease must be addressed
without delay. New methods of distribution of resources, based on
sharing & need, will supplant the present chaotic modes which so
divide the world. The blind following of market forces, whose myopic
rule causes such misery today, will give way to an enlightened & just
consideration for the needs of all...”

3 quotes from the Work of Benjamin Creme
"...We think... we can go on in the old ways... more competition, more
greed... It is not so... If two-thirds of the world’s population
areliving in poverty then the economic system does not work. If we
think that they will go on without asking that it work for them, then
we are sorely out of step with reality. Maitreya will make that
clear...
"When the people's voice is not heard, there will inevitably be
revolution...
"People will begin to understand that humanity is travelling together
as one huge group, at different stages of the evolutionary journey. We
are all travelling together along a path of evolution to something
tremendous which our minds at present find difficult to truly
understand."
============
Throughout history, when Humanity has reached a major point of crisis,
a Teacher is sent into the world to show the way forward. All the
major world religions expect a further revelation to be given by a
great Teacher. Christians hope for the return of the Christ, Jews
await the Messiah, Buddhists look for the coming of Maitreya Buddha,
while Muslims await the Imam Mahdi, and Hindus the reincarnation of
Krishna. According to esoteric teachings, these are all different
names for the same individual: Maitreya, the World Teacher. He is
the World Teacher for everyone, religious or not & is an educator in
the broadest sense of the word. His first major public appearance is
imminent. He will NOT come across as a religious figure nor will he
endorse any particular religion over any other. He does NOT want
anyone to worship Him, but rather to think of Him as an elder brother.
His message can be summarized as “share & save the world”. He will
inspire humanity to see itself as one family, & to create world peace
through sharing, justice & co-operation.
The time for unbridled greed, political corruption, environmental
degradation, war & poverty has passed. It is time to build a new
world, based upon the principles of sharing, justice, & love.
"Without sharing there can be no justice;
without justice there can be no peace;
without peace there can be no future...
Man must change or die.
There is no other course."
Maitreya, the World Teacher
