The 4th ray is transmitted through Scorpio.

Scorpio, at this particular stage of human evolution, governs the Path
of Discipleship.

Scorpio is under the influence or inflowing energy of Sirius. This is
the great star of initiation because our Hierarchy (an expression of
the second aspect of divinity) is under the supervision or spiritual
magnetic control of the Hierarchy of Sirius. These are the major
controlling influences whereby the cosmic Christ works upon the Christ
principle in the solar system, in the planet, in man and in the lower
forms of life expression. It is esoterically called the "brilliant
star of sensitivity."

Scorpio is the great constellation which influences the turning point
both in the life of humanity and the life of the individual human
being. For the first time in the history of both mankind and disciples
the energy of Sirius, pouring into the seven groups which form our
planetary Hierarchy evokes a response. I would remind you of a basic
fact in the evolutionary process which astrology will eventually prove
scientifically and past all controversy. This is the fact that
energies and forces are pouring upon our system and our planetary
lives ceaselessly, potently and cyclically. Yet they are only regarded
today as existing when definite response is evoked. They come from all
kinds of sources, extraneous to our system and planetary schemes, but
until man responds and registers them both scientists and astrologers
fail to recognize them and they are as if they were not.

In order the better to understand the nature of discipleship and the
processes of stabilization and right direction, we must precede the
Capricornian experience of initiation with a careful study of the
spiritual implications of the sign Scorpio and of its function in
providing "points of crisis" and "moments of reorientation," as this
will be of the utmost value to the earnest student.

The tests of Scorpio are necessarily three in nature as they concern
intimately the readiness of the threefold personality:

To reorient itself to the life of the soul and later.
To evidence readiness for initiation.
To demonstrate sensitivity to the Plan thus becoming the one-pointed
disciple in Sagittarius.

The three major tests are again divided into three stages, and upon
the Path of Discipleship the man may find himself passing into this
sign for testing and experience nine times.

Each test (and therefore each decanate) concerns the three aspects
which in this Treatise on the Seven Rays we have called: life, quality
and appearance. Thus the three great tests in Scorpio are in reality
nine tests and hence the nine-headed Hydra or Serpent which is ever
associated with Scorpio and hence also the nature of the stupendous
victory achieved by Hercules, the Sun-God, in this sign.

The three tests in Scorpio also concern the three aspects of the human
being as they fuse and blend upon the physical plane. They are, first
of all, the test of appetite. This appetite is the natural
predilections and tendencies which are inherent in the animal nature
and these are mainly three: Sex, physical comfort, and money, as
concretized energy. They are, secondly, the tests connected with
desire and the astral plane. These are subtler in nature, producing
automatic effects upon the physical plane; they are not inherent in
the animal nature but are imposed by the desire nature and are again
three in number: Fear, hatred and ambition or desire for power. Then
there are, thirdly, the tests of the lower critical mind which are:
Pride, separativeness and cruelty. Remember that the worst kind of
cruelty is not of a physical nature but is more mental in character.

When these faults are realized and are overcome, the result is
twofold: the establishing of right relations with the soul and also
with the environment. These two results are the goal of all tests in
Scorpio.

The keynotes of this sign are, therefore, test, trial and triumph.
They can also be called struggle, strength and Sagittarian attitudes.
Another angle of the experience in Scorpio can be covered by two
words: recapitulation and reorientation.

These tests and trials are ever self-initiated; the disciple puts
himself into the positive or conditioning environment wherein the
trials and the discipline are unavoidable and inevitable. When the
mind has reached a relatively high stage of development, the memory
aspect is evoked in a new and conscious manner and then every latent
predisposition, every racial and national instinct, every unconquered
situation and every controlling fault rises to the surface of
consciousness and then - the fight is on. The keynote of Scorpio is,
however, Triumph. This is its major expression upon the physical
plane. As a result of struggle and of victory, the whole divine man -
not yet perfectly expressing himself, if I might word the situation
thus - is anchored upon the physical plane with such accuracy and
clarity that there is no escape from the environing conclusions of the
disciple's family, friends and group that he is a disciple. From that
angle he is meticulously watched; he learns the meaning of the word
"example"; he is pilloried by those who are onlookers and the first
conscious stages toward group awareness and group response, plus group
service, are now taken. Such is the outcome and the reward of the
experience in Scorpio.

The keywords of this sign are significant and illuminating. Deception
and triumph - control by Maya and control by the soul - conflict and
peace - such are the hidden secrets of this sign and these are summed
up for all disciples in the two keywords. Upon the ordinary wheel,
whereon the soul is found, blind and apparently helpless, the Word
goes forth in the following terms:

"And the Word said, Let Maya flourish and let deception rule";

upon the reversed wheel, the soul chants or sings the words:

"Warrior I am and from the battle I emerge triumphant."

At the Time of the Full Moon...
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.

"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 are
living 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..."
Benjamin Creme

"The chief difficulty which prevents men of science from believing in
divine as well as in nature Spirits is their materialism...
The Occultists, however, know that the traditions of Esoteric
Philosophy must be the right ones, simply because they are the most
logical, and reconcile every difficulty."
H. P. Blavatsky


UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

"...Throughout the world there are men, women and little children who
have not even the essentials to stay alive; they crowd the cities of
many of the poorest countries in the world. This crime fills me with
shame. My brothers, how can you watch these people die before your
eyes and call yourselves men? ...

"My plan is to show you that the way out of your problems is to listen
again to the true voice of God within your hearts, to share the
produce of this most bountiful of worlds among your brothers and
sisters everywhere..."
The World Teacher
