SCORPIO full Moon

This is an important moment in the history of the planet. This refers back to an earlier transmission when I told you that Hierarchy had decided to allow Humanity as a centre to fully exercise its free will. The election in America provides a crucial opportunity in that exercise of the will. The issues are clear and the population of that Western democracy are more informed about these issues than ever before. Perhaps the one element that is lacking is a clear perspective about how the rest of the world views this nation. It is always difficult to appreciate this when you reside within your own aura. One of the central issues therefore for the American people is whether or not they will open to a more unified global perspective—reaching out in identification with humanity—which will require some humility as they absorb some uncomfortable truths about themselves as a nation. Or whether they will ‘close down’ somewhat righteously around their national identity and stance in the global arena. It is a test of discipleship for this young nation. Will it reinforce the personality or open to the soul? Remember that the soul is on the Second Ray and comes under the influence of Aquarius. These two energies offer great potential for the spread of the principle of Freedom which is also firmly anchored in the soul of the USA. The spread of the principle of Freedom on soul levels is quite different from the spread of the ‘idea’ of freedom as it is interpreted by the personality of America. It is the shadow side of the expression of this ‘interpreted idea’ which is the very thing that the global community is acutely aware of as it places this country in its collective gaze. To release the idea and work with the principle itself is the very thing needed to open to the soul. Imposition of the ‘idea’ of freedom upon others for their own good is not the expression of freedom, however it is sometimes necessary in the development process. You will see that it is with this very issue that Hierarchy is working. Hierarchy is the soul to the personality of Humanity. If we allowed humanity full expression of the principle of Freedom when they were expressing in an unsolarised manner then we would share responsibility for the destructive consequences. However if we withheld that principle when humanity had reached a stage where it was demanding greater access, then we would also share in the responsibility for repressing the principle that lies at the monadic core of the planetary life. Whether something is good or evil depends totally on the time and space context. This is why the soul is a ‘living expression of principles’ and not a fixed set of ideas or practices that can be understood and emulated by the personality.

Humanity must choose, and in order for it to do so Hierarchy must provide the space for that choice to be made through a partial withdrawal of its influencing gaze. Do you understand this process? The soul must wait, available upon willful invocation by the personality but not attempting to influence that will. Will humanity go ahead and exercise its freedom by choosing that which it already knows—those tried and true practices and behaviours that it has tested out for millennia? Or will it pause, experiencing the limitations of its own accumulated intelligence generated through long activity and ask—nay demand—a change? When this demand rises to a point of invocation, that which can effect such a change must come forth under Law. This is the dilemma—that which can effect a change is not present within the sphere of humanity’s experience. To open for its inflow requires the admittance of the fact that humanity left to its own devices cannot solve its essential problems alone. This is a vulnerable place—the admittance of inherent inadequacy to face the challenges it confronts. However it is only in this admittance, this vulnerability, that a doorway opens to receive that which is new, that which can change everything in one flash of time. This ‘something other’ is the inheritance of humanity, held for it in the Council Chamber awaiting humanity’s coming of age. It is the essential divinity that lies at the core of the personality but is unrecognised in consciousness. Its recognition requires a surrender of that which is known and proven but limited—the survival mechanisms of personality developed over a long evolutionary process. If that surrender occurs it is immediately met with the revelation of a higher principle lying hidden within. This principle, because it lies outside the space and time of the personality, creates by its entrance new space and time in which something completely different to the conventional wisdom can occur. It is literally the beginning of the re-creation of heaven and earth—a re-creation in consciousness. All is made new because the old is surrendered. Can humanity surrender the old? Will America let go and let God work his wonder through her? Will there be sufficient tension in this moment in space and time which will allow that which lies outside space and time to enter? We await in active peace and positivity.
