Summary: From the new moon of Asala to the sacred time of solstice; matter, time and the substance of heart and consciousness

Now the flow to solstice! The new moon just passed note1 has brought the blessing given at Asala through the physical, drawing it through the physical as it journeys around to take the gifts understood (ie, in consciousness) from physical awareness to inner yearning. For the new moon bares the inner to the sun's blessing, and the extent to which the inner can receive the blessing is dependent upon the pathways through, resonance in, and malleability of the consciousness at that point in time!

Note that the cycles and rhythms of nature, life and cosmos involve time. Without time, you have no rhythm, for everything simply is. With time, you have engagement of will-intent with matter, and the most efficient mechanism for this is rhythm, as we have talked through previously.

Rhythm is the great life-giver. Each moon cycle is a rhythm of inner consciousness, yet still within the personal ring-pass-not; whereas each solar cycle is a rhythm within the ring-pass-not of solar-earthly life expression. Cosmic rhythms are only felt within solar consciousness, as far as our planetary and solar system is concerned.

Solar rhythms can only touch personal consciousness when a certain amount of the consciousness can resonate (not flow) with the solar life force. There are very few who thus resonate in Earthly consciousness, although there are more, obviously, in angelic and spiritual kingdoms, because here we are speaking of the touch in consciousness of solar consciousness, not the touch in awareness of the actual, physical event.note2 These are two entirely different realities! Solar consciousness, rhythms and flows are of cosmic proportions to the individual, personal consciousness - hence why God is seen as this great being of cosmic and solar proportions to most, even though in fact the perception largely lies in the astral-physical realm of created reality to enliven awakening and consciousness-raising upon and within the Earth.

Well, suffice it to say, all these rhythms and impacts of cosmic-solar flows and radiances have very little impact in real terms on the ordinary human being in the aspect of consciousness that is needed to awaken to heart; for there is precious little of that substance yet present in and of Earth's families and bodies of consciousness in the physical.

But this is changing, because heart flow is making new light and life more present as a force, a radiance, an intention that is perceived and felt, and as a reality that can be touched by all. This is Maitreya's sacrifice, his grace and path.

As the Christed Master holding the office of Christ-Bodhisattva, Maitreya is the primary conduit for cosmic-solar flow into the evolutionary milieu for and of Earth. He is the medium through which that force and flow must incarnate deeper and deeper, touch Earthly substance more and more deeply, and engender anew the revitalised consciousness of home-coming that is there and present in every life form self-conscious of the journey of spirit (note that self-conscious is not necessarily the same as personally self-conscious).

Thus is the journey of life-force cosmic in intent, solar in substance, and Earthly in manifestation. The journey of the heart in matter. The awakening of cosmic purpose on Earth.

Buddha Gautama's role when he was Christ,note3 and Buddha, was to lay the pathways in consciousness for substance to be felt, awakened to, revitalised in personal spheres, and acted upon in physical manifestation.

Jesus Maitreya note4 was the merging of substance, this substance so pure, with the incoming cosmic intent of flow, the flow of heart.

Never before has the physical vehicle of the Buddha of Light been the shell, the substance, through which the incoming Christ could and can flow. Never before has the role of flow-master been so present in cosmic intent, and so needed and thus called for in Earthly response. Christ merged with Buddha, unknown to all but the very few, to initiate the era we now enter. Christ and Buddha of this Earth stood as one body, one mind, with one great heart opening as the vehicle for the greatest cosmic flow that is yet to come, but for which seeds were sown in that momentous three-year period. note5

Jesus, an incarnation in flesh of Buddha Gautama's soul, now stands well prepared on the inner as a worshipped, revered and loved human being, who has also shown the way of Christ through the overshadowing of Maitreya, who was present in the life force and life blood of that incarnation.

Now, Maitreya takes on more and more of the clothes he wore, the clothes that are made of the matter and substance that he blessed, touched, and healed. The matter and substance in which he sowed seeds for the future. For now that future is upon us, and reawakening, and emerging anew from the shadows and recollections past. The old bears the seeds, but the new growth shall be in new soil, in new light, and of new substance!

Thus, the flow to solstice. The blessings of Asala are Christ's. The blessings of solstice are Cosmic Christ's. The pathway between the two is through the awakening of the seeds already touched, already knowing deep within of the way, and thus the way becomes more and more real.

When you seek the heart, it shall awaken to you, and show you the way to awaken it within. The light shows the way but does not become, is not the substance that is the way. That can only be made real when the consciousness "sees" - using whatever sense, for seeing in this, as in all realities, is to perceive what could be reached, sensed, become; the sight of what is actual and present is made real using another sense than sight alone, for it is sight interwoven with matter and substance, and quite a different interaction in consciousness! We are in the part of the journey of heart when the purpose is to awaken sight, thus hope, and thus seeds for the future.

The blessings of Asala have been well received into the substance of the world, but the sight is not yet there. In fact, for many, the shining light that comes startles the eyes to turn away and shun that which is revealed. Hence the blindness that is too much present, and which must be healed.

Do you see the light? Do you hope for the light? Then you must note in your consciousness what your choices, hopes, awakenings are - for that is the gift of the times. That is the gift of mercy and hope, from Mother of Light who is the substance-bearer who builds on the vision of Christ - within, or without; personal, or solar.

New moon after Asala shows how much of the substance blessed at full moon is ready for the journeying of the new cycle. Much is ready, and we hold great hope! Then comes the flow to solstice, an auspicious flow in the rhythm of the cycle this year - from new moon to full, from Asala to solstice. Not every year holds the capacity to draw substance so well through the matter of time and space.

So, at solstice? Be prepared, and awaken to the blessings. Be prepared, by awakening to what you do see, hope for, and wish yourself to bless - for herein lies the grace of our times, and the journey of the heart.

This night of consciousness gives birth to seeds for new sustenance, the sustenance that shall in turn birth within matter the nourished, transformed and supernal knowledge - soul cell to personal cell - of the heart to be in matter, in Earth.

At solstice, awaken and prepare. To awaken and prepare - allow your flow. Flow is the message of new moon to this solstice - touch it, awaken to it, revel within it, and untold grace shall come to you!

In the light of the heart
I am the love of all
