Sagittarius
Radiant Life Meditation
We
see the goal, we reach that goal and then we see another. (1)
SouledOut.org's
Radiant Life Meditation theme for 2007 crescendoes as we embody our
awareness of the zodiacal energies of the Lighted
Way to "Live the Radiant Life." This draws upon the
meditation practice we have come to recognize as our biggest, most
potent tool in working together to usher in the Age of Aquarius,
and so as a group to co-create Heaven on Earth.
Beginning
after the new moon on Friday, November 9, we invite you to join
us by aligning with the daily focus offered here:
Living The
Radiant Life
Reveals Divine Direction
We
suggest beginning each Calendar day using this focus, as all align
with the theme for the day. Throughout the Sagittarius cycle, each
day's seed thought is conveyed in the graphic representation and
associated
links on that day's page.
You
are encouraged to continue with this meditation focus during
the moon cycle surrounding the November 24 Sagittarius~Gemini
full moon. You may want to bookmark the Calendar, or consider
making
it
the startup page in your browser for the entire month, in order
to participate on a daily basis. Another suggestion, since it
is updated daily, is to set your Browser Cache to "Compare each
time the page is viewed."
This
lunar cycle...
The
Light of Sagittarius comes into our collective consciousness with
this November 9 new moon, as during this cycle the Sun will be moving
through the burning ground of Scorpio, activating
transformation.
The 12-month journey
of Jupiter (ruling
planet of Sagittarius) through
this area of the heavenly sky concludes at the end of Sagittarius,
on December 18.
Jupiter
itself spends November among the background stars of Ophiuchus, the
Serpent-bearer. The planet moves slowly eastward throughout the month,
at November's end it reaches the eastern border of Ophiuchus just as
the Sun enters the constellation from the west. The Sun will remain
in Ophiuchus for the first half of December, while Jupiter then crosses
out, into Sagittarius. (2)
Indeed,
the Heavens are stimulating and emphasizing in humanity the
transformation
toward right relationship and the all-inclusive, wise heart.

Sagittarius Meditation
The
Sagittarius Full Moon ~
Saturday, November 24, 2007 at 6:30 am PST (14:30 UT)
The
Light of Sagittarius: A beam of directed, focused Light
In
this the point of light becomes the beam,
revealing a
greater light ahead and
illumining the way to the centre
of the light. (3)
Guidance
in preparing for this meditation
We
mentally link up with people of goodwill everywhere,
as part of the united group channel through which the spiritual
forces can become available. Affirming this channel, "We
stand poised united as One Soul with our Spiritual Hierarchy." We
hold the focus.
We
now visualize and become the Chalice we have together created,
as a grid of light all over the earth connecting the light of
every lightworker and each sacred energy vortex. This network
serves as a conduit through which the heavenly blessings may
flow through every one of us and to the planet Earth.
When
we have achieved this ...
We,
as one, welcome the Light of Sagittarius, and the energies it brings to us and to all
the Kingdoms on planet Earth.
As
our collective mind's eye adjusts to its brilliance we see,
beyond the light of Sagittarius, a beam of light. In our clarity,
we know that in this space and place we have long sought guidance.
Having not seen the beam of light, but just the brilliance
of the light,
in those moments we
have asked for
direction.
A
new awareness is born from
our present clarity.
We are now asked to become the directors, not just the directed,
to
know
and
show the way for all of Humanity.
This new
awareness brings a vision.
In this moment, we sense the energy of the star Betelgeuse,
as it pours through the sign of Sagittarius.
We
see now before
us a great cross. Its arms radiate color. At its center, where
the arms meet, is a five-pointed star of deep,
deep, dark
indigo. Behind it is a blazing sun of warm,
dark blue.
In
the colors of the cross and star,
we see a new and greater spiritual vision. There is a new clarity,
we see further into
the heart of Divinity, and glimpse more of our Divine Destiny.
In
this moment, we are aware of sound as well as color. Our senses,
spiritual vision as well as spiritual hearing, are heightened.
The stars sing together and combine
with the Chant of the Gods to illumine all that
is in
a great symphony of sound and color. The
key to understanding the truth of the Song of Life may be found
here.
As
selfless, consecrated, creative beings of sound and light,
we will carry this spiritual inspiration into every corner
of our life.
We will seek and
find relationships of purpose ~ and in this touch hundreds, who will in turn touch
thousands, who will touch millions ~ revealing we are all One!
We
are joined in this stream by lightworkers everywhere on the planet
and from on high to intone The Great Invocation, and together
we say ...
The
Great Invocation
From
the point of light within the Mind of God
Let Light stream forth into our minds
Let LIGHT descend on Earth.
From
the point of love within the Heart of God
Let Love stream forth into our hearts
May LOVE increase on Earth.
From
the center where the Will of God is known
Let purpose guide our wills
The PURPOSE which the masters know and serve.
From
the center which we call Humanity
Let the Plan of Love and Light work out
And may it seal the door
where evil dwells.
Let
Light and Love and Power restore the Plan on Earth.
Let Light and Love and Power restore the Plan on Earth.
Let LIGHT and LOVE and POWER
restore the Planet Earth!

adapted version (4)
We
now continue to hold the high space throughout this most auspicious
phase of the full moon, an important time to still the mind and
maintain inner peace, always a time of spiritual retreat and
contact.

Readings
We
offer these related materials for your Sagittarius meditation focus
...
The
Lighted Way The entire zodiac can be approached and understood
from the angle of light ~ the inner light, soul light ~ and
its unfolding, increasing radiance is the manifestation of our divine
nature. (5) Study of the 12
different lights for each of the constellations of the zodiac reveals
the symbolic story of the growth of the light body within the Soul
of Humanity (the Macrocosm) and within each of us (the Microcosm),
and will finally make clear the very purpose of God.
The
Seven Cosmic Paths "This subject is considered ... to
be devoid of form and therefore incognisable to the lower concrete
mind." (5) Hence it
is through the practice of Living the Radiant Life that we may
begin
to understand the nature of Spirit, for to bring Spirit fully into
our daily lives is service to the One.
The
Path of Training for Planetary Logoi This Third Cosmic
Path is the one that keeps a person linked to the spiritual Hierarchy,
which
is
pledged
to
the service of our planet. (7)
Sagittarius
Zodiacal Deity "Sagittarius,
we are told, is the spirit of truth; it is the sum of all Truth
growing out of individual revelation." (8) In
Sagittarius, Soul consciousness in its early stages unfolds through
the use of intuition and aspiration. Keynote: I vision. (9)
Betelgeuse The
sun Betelgeuse is a source of cosmic energy streaming towards our system.
This influence reaches our system by way of the sign Sagittarius. (10)
Night
Sky ~ Moon Dances During each lunar cycle the Moon, waxing
and waning, journeys through the zodiac. It partners with and enlivens
the sparkling stars and glowing planets along the way. As the Moon
grows in the light provided by our Sun, we too grow in the light
of our Soul.
A
new lunar cycle begins Novemer 9 with the
Sun and Moon enlivening the Zuben stars of the constellation Libra.
Karmic
wounded
relationships
are bound to show themselves during this
lunar cycle
and dharmic
responsibility is destined to tap us on the shoulder
for a reconciliation of them. It’s curious to note that the
day of the New Moon is Global
Grace Day. Lunar theme: Poised Balance
~ Humanity’s
Cutting Edge Path
The
waxing Crescent Moon transits the evolutionary line-up
of Antares, Jupiter and Pluto positioned at the Heart of our Galaxy November
11-12. For almost one year these celestial bodies have been impressing
a transformation of humanity's personal and cultural values on the broadest
possible scale. November 13-14 the growing Moon transits the celestial Centaur, who
leads humanity beyond its mortal limits, on a cutting edge path.
Have
a "Thanks
Giving" time with three seasons of savory stars and
a fattening Moon. Early November 17, World
Peace Day, the Quarter Moon
brings up a tension between the light and dark along with a new
spiritual impulse from Neptune. The evening's waxing Gibbous Moon,
November 17-18, transits an
"invisible" and potent trio of celestial bodies, which continues
to generate an awakening within humanity. Two
Full Moon nights, November
23-24, shine a guiding light upon all politcal systems; reconciling
the past is a necessary practice to move into the divine future. A comet
bodes humanity to claim the gifts gained by
initiatory fires and emerge triumphant.
The night
of November
26/27 Mars has a close encounter with the waning Gibbous Moon
and opposing forces are highly stimulated. Betelgeuse comes to the
rescue. November
30-December 2 Luna, Leo and Saturn demand changes that alighn
with the Law of the Soul. November
30-December 17 Sol makes his annual visit to the Medicine
Man. December
4-5 a predawn trio opens our heart, as Hanukkah begins. December
6-8 a lunar cycle ends as it began; in addition, shooting stars
become active; a evening Giant looms over the eastern horizon and
a 30-Hour
Global Peace Concert is launched. Celebrate rebirth!
Preparation
for Participation in This Meditation Focus
Consider
...
What
is the appropriate way to join in this meditation ... you may wish
to participate in group formation on the physical plane as well as
on the inner planes. Whether or not you choose to be "alone" on
the physical plane, know you are uniting with many others who also
are attuning to the energies available at this Global Festival, and
that this group focus creates a powerful channel for the meditation
to be potent and effective.
If you are
unable to meditate at the exact time of the full moon, choose a time
within 12 hours before or after to be part of this group meditation.
Prior to
your meditation take the needed time to create a sacred space and spiritually
align your energies.
We
Recognize, the Full Moon Festivals Culminate over a Five-Day Period
...
Our meditation
focus beginning at the new moon leads into the two "days of preparation" immediately
preceding the full moon. These are to be dedicated to spiritual reflection
and detachment from everyday concerns, as
each prepares to become a vessel for the energies of light and love
they will receive and channel. At this time we hold the attitude of
dedication and service, and seek to assume that attitude of receptivity
to that which our soul will impart which will make us of spiritual
use.
The day
of the full moon itself is the "day of safeguarding," one of inner
peace and silence during which we attempt to contact and consciously
hold the energies for the rest of humanity. We will not formulate for
ourselves what will happen, nor will we look for results or tangible
effects. While one may not observe the exact moment when the moon is
full, it's important to find some quiet time to reflect alone or use
this opportunity to meditate with others of like mind and focus.
The two
succeeding days are called the "days of distribution." We now turn
the attention outwards, away from ourselves, and our efforts are to
pass on the spiritual energies that have been contacted. We assist
these spiritual energies, transformed into goodwill, in flowing to
where there is greatest need.
If you wish,
feel free to continue use of this meditation for the entire month of
Sagittarius.
We now continue
to hold the high space throughout this most auspicious day of the full
moon, an important time to still the mind and maintain inner peace,
a time of spiritual retreat and contact.
The
Full Moon Cycle We Are Observing ...
From the
new moon on Friday, November 9 through Sunday, December
9, 2007,
the end of Sagittarius's lunar cycle.

Sagittarius
Labor of Hercules "Sagittarius
has sometimes been called 'the sign of the effect of Scorpio'.
The moment we have freed ourselves from illusion, that moment we
enter into Sagittarius and we see the goal. We have never really
seen it before, because between us and the goal there is always
to be found that cloud of thought forms that prevents us from seeing
it." (11)
Transformation~Pluto Following
Pluto's recent transit through the constellation Scorpio, Pluto has
been in a lengthy conjunction throughout
2007 with the galactic centre ~ the heart
of our galaxy ~ at 27 degrees
Sagittarius.
Mutable
Cross This
is the Cross of temporal and temporary change, of fluidity and
of those constantly altering environments driving the soul within
the
form from one extreme of experience to another, which shuttles
the life between the pairs of opposites. (12)
