Our theme will be: Dwellers in a Nested Universe of Lives. Life is a constant search for meaning and belonging. Revelation of the Mysteries and the evolution of consciousness results from an intentional and progressive entry into more expanded states of awareness and spheres of existence. Wisdom and new insight naturally emerge out of a lived experience of the symmetry and scalar nature of our Nested Universe at the every-day level of life. You are invited to journey into th

Sagittarius is a Fire sign whose symbol is the Archer expressing the quality of one- pointedness and direction. The arrow that is unleashed is a ‘shaft of light’ that speeds toward the chosen target. The focused nature of Sagittarius is reflected in its mott

In Part One we reflected on the heart as a remarkable organ of connectivity, caring and compassion that pumps and circulates the lifeblood of Love throughout the whole of the living Ecosystem of Self. We named the heart as a terrestrial hearth that can safely house the heavenly Fire of Love – enabling the radiance of the One Life to shine and illumine the dark places of the human psyche. By so doing, we each become activated fractals of the One – that omniscient, all-encompas

The “View from the Mount” theme is: Cultivating the Radiant Heart of Being We will explore the urgent need for each of us to open and activate the heart as an instrument of refined receptivity and radiation. The heart functions an organ of utmost sensitivity that registers the subtle transmissions from Self, friends and our surrounding community as well as from the distant reaches of the Cosmos. Without the pulsing heart we remain cut off from the ‘great chain of being’ an

It is ruled by Mars which provides the fighting spirit by which the trials of Scorpio are faced. Scorpio rules the path of discipleship and provides the needed ch

The heart is a remarkable organ of connectivity, caring, and compassion.  On a physical level, the beating heart ensures that the needed lifeblood is pumped and circulated throughout the whole of the living system we call the Universe of Self .  At a more refined plane of being, the life-giving substance pulsed and distributed by the rhythm of our Soul is called Love.  The heart is a profound place of sensitivity where we register feelings in their richest and deepest dimensi

The “View from the Mount” theme is: Tension in the Field – Utilizing the Creative Power of Polarity It feels appropriate to explore this topic while we find ourselves inside the influence of the energies beaming from the Constellation Libra. The spiritual motto for this zodiacal sign is, “I choose the path that leads between the two great lines of force”. These “two great lines of force” occur naturally and create a tension in the field. At its highest expression, the tensio

In Part One, we acknowledged the subtle call from the depth of our being that often goes unanswered. We named it as the call of the soul that is growing stronger, more persistent and more urgent with every passing day. We also identified several of the psychological ‘sound barriers’ that may cause us to turn a deaf ear. In Agni Yoga we are advised to, “ listen with the ears of the heart ” as the heart is an organ that already is a highly refined instrument tuned to the freque

The “View from the Mount” theme is: The Flowering of the Soul The evolution of soul consciousness has been likened to the sequential opening of the many petals of a radiant flower. In eastern philosophy, the lotus is utilized while in the western spiritual lineage, it is the rose that depicts the promise and potential of our essential nature. We will continue our exploration – begun last month with a focus on the theme, The Call of the Soul – and seek to deepen our understan

“Though we seem to be sleeping, there is an inner wakefulness that directs the dream, and that will eventually startle us back to the Truth of who we are.” ~ Jalal al-Din Rumi There is a subtle call from the depth of our being that often goes unanswered. This is the call of the soul that grows stronger, more persistent and more urgent with every passing day. We are told in the Ageless Wisdom teachings that the soul is in constant meditation and continuously sounds its note o

The “View from the Mount” theme is: The Call of the Soul We are told in the Ageless Wisdom teachings that the soul is in constant meditation and is continuously sounding its note. Sometimes it is difficult to hear and register this inner call of the Essential Self because it is being drowned out by the incessant chatter of the monkey-mind and the dulling din of a materialistically based society. The present precarious and unstable state of the world cries out for the light an

The full moon of Leo offers an opportunity to sensitize ourselves to the right use of power – moving away from self-assertion and domination into a selfless assumption of true leadership. Leo, as the Lion King, calls forth the courage to lead with love and sensitivity in service to

Last month we began an exploration into the sensed inner call for closer cooperation between the various life-streams (or realms and kingdoms) that comprise the multidimensional Life of our Planet. We focused on a new level of collaboration required between the Fourth Kingdom (Humanity) and the Fifth Kingdom (the Realm of Souls) to spark and manifest a vision of a world living in right relationship. What if we were to view the emerging global coalition of individuals and grou

A favorite childhood verse of mine by Ibn al ‘Arabi goes like this: God sleeps in the rocks ( 1st kingdom ) Dreams in the plants ( 2nd kingdom ) Stirs in the animals ( 3rd kingdom ) Awakens in humans ( 4th kingdom ) I believe that it is time to add another line: And Shines in the realm of Souls ( 5th kingdom ) There is a magnificent spectrum of creative expression stretching from the dense physical plane all the way to the highest frequency of Divine Purpose to which we give

The “View from the Mount” theme is: Cycles and Seasons – tracking the Soul’s Journey on Earth Life is Eternal while its myriad forms of expression are temporal. The perpetual and cyclical motion of the One Life causes civilizations to rise and fall over the span of countless aeons and the soul to incarnate and reincarnate through a procession of lifetimes in order to fully express itself. Often, we lose sight of this greater rhythm and purpose and get caught up in the time-b

These past few years have proven to be unsettling times for many. The disruption to our normal rhythm and routine caused by the spread of Covid, civil unrest and war in various parts of the world, an alarming environmental crisis plus a general sense of precariousness has left large portions of the population in a state of uncertainty, apprehension and bewilderment. It is as though the normality we counted on for reassurance is disappearing. In conversations, people are const
