THE MANIPURA (SOLAR PLEXUS) CHAKRA
Manipura is the third Chakra from the Muladhara. It is located within the Sushumna Nadi, in the Nabhi Sthana (region of navel). This has its corresponding centre in the physical body and has control over the liver, stomach, etc.This is a very important centre. From this Chakra emanate ten Yoga Nadis which appear like the petals of a lotus. The vibrations that are produced by the Nadis are represented by the Sanskrit letters (dam, dham, nam, dam, dham, nam, pam, pham). The Chakra is of the colour of dark clouds. Within there is a space triangular in form. It is the Agni Mandala (region of fire-Agni Tattva). The Bijakshara ra"u), the Bija of Agni, is here. The presiding deity is Vishnu and Goddess is Lakshmi. This Chakra corresponds to Svah or Svarga Loka and to Solar Plexus in the physical body.
The Yogi who concentrates at this Chakra gets Patala Siddhi, can acquire hidden treasures and will be free from all diseases. He has no fear at all from Agni (fire). "Even if he is thrown into the burning fire, he remains alive without fear of death.", (Gheranda Samhita)

ISO official approval for temples - this has been in figures for sometime. Maximum of us are faltering of what this machine or whether this would run damage to the purity of the temple. A regular to Parthasarathy temple of Triplicane showed me what the ISO official approval could mean.
Customarily family unit say that ISO official approval helps in maintaining the temple clean. Safeguarding the temple clean is everyone's due - from the temple staff to the devotees who horde the temple. We don't ultimatum an ISO official approval for that. But some time ago you contribution the garbhagraha of the deities in the Parthasarathy temple, you get the counter. All the sannidhis restrain been air conditioned! The AC is level in the artha mantapa - too humid to the garbha gruha in such a way that the deity as well is signal the cool air. In reserved sannidhis like Andal, one can idea the dryness give or take the deity
Recall my authenticate on why the garbha gruha want be cool wet and how the cooling want restrain to be natural (1). The concentrate in the characteristic in the garbha graha behest new idea the very object for which the temple exists. The deity does not ultimatum the AC. Falsification the AC in the garbha gruha can restrain precisely one produce - that of steal keeping of the consumer comforts! Formerly you dinner the opinionated as a consumer, the ISO official approval gets some meaning or suitability.
Activate at what the ISO 9000 official approval, the temple contract has matter-of-fact for - says:-
From www.iso.org we get the information that the ISO 9000 people addresses 4 issues of "Move fast Management".
They are
. the customer's quality desires, and
. applicable regulatory desires, such as aiming to
. step up consumer jubilation, and
. present invariable adjustment of its fair in pursuit of these objectives
The consumer is the intermediate in all these issues.
Who is the consumer in a temple?
It is the opinionated.
Since constitutes consumer jubilation for the devotee?
Is the ISO fitting position to rate what jubilation could do with a opinionated wallow in in a temple?
Does it know or does qualities know what jubilation, service can accord to a devotee?
If it is about sanitation - control it. It is everybody's due to control sanitation. It is the due of the opinionated to control sanitation. It is the easiest and fill in seva or service to God and to the temple. Want we restrain some staff to do the cleaning? Formerly we say that we could do with restrain, we are precisely making the opinionated hostage his responsibility of maintaining sanitation in the temple and as well nippiness him from his weight of enactment it as a service.
Uncommon respect is the shrill characteristic in a temple which spend time at cautious is maiming the feelings of the temple.
They are false.
Temples are not predestined to be introverted sitting room like meditation rooms or yoga centres.
They want be vibrant with vigor. The exclaim of family unit, the exclaim of children and their hold sway over hither and give are all parts of temple feelings. Such an articulate is the notch of the guardianship feat free gone wearing the temple. One can live through this in olden temples wherever the austerities are in custody as per tradition. Ordinary if give is not far afield reach of devotees to the temple, the temple behest be spotted with game birds that make celebratory sounds. As per set of laws of temple representatives, the temple furnished with pigeon holes is the realize one, says Varahamihira. The ISO may continue the pigeon holes built-up the game birds as a discord and may gripe of closing them!
If some ISO official approval want be give, that want be on temple plan,
* on how far afield space want be give for garden give or take the temple,
* on how far afield open space want be give give or take the sannidhis and give or take the temple.
* on how the interim give or take the temple listed with the temple container want be free of be successful or press on.
* on how the basic structure of the temple want be retained according to sastras on temple structure. And so on.
Activate at what Brihad Samhita says on set of laws of temple representatives. Of the 31 verses in the 56th point on the representatives set of laws for temple prone by sage Garga, 9 are on locational factors.
The intermediate of these verses is on luxuriant supply of water and luxuriant go up of garden give or take the temple, growing dark trees within the temple and having water tanks or ponds give or take the temple.
The temple stretches on all four sides with tanks and garden, complete made-up or natural occuring.
Spiritual leader Garga says that precisely in such an site Devas reside!
Activate at the google earth picture of Parthasarathy temple.
As per Brihad samhita but, the totality temple complex want restrain been alternatively above than what it is now - it has now shrunk within the 4 defenses. Beside a growing and greedy relations, the temple has shrunk in span.
Prefer a humid thud at the temple. Brutally four fifths of the complex is hermetic on top.
This was not so in olden days - say about 25 to 30 years ago. Nearby was open space all give or take the sannidhis that ensured good air circulation.
But today the temple looks like a safeguarded brickwork structure that does not even allow air to contribution or announcement. This happens in a temple that is situated plug the sea stockpile and understood to be covered by sea drink on all days
So what does the consumer of the temple experience?
Humid and sweating.
The improvement group is numerous produce. But that is not a sincere produce. Thousands used to horde the temple on spend time at occasions in the farther too. In Sangam literature on Irunthayur (Koodalazhakar of Madurai), we read a description of chronic reach of devotees on all days. But were they inconvenienced by the heat?
No. Mostly from the time when the temple structure is complete in such a way that give is good air reach and freshening.
Parthasarathy temple as well was a very well ventilated structure - ONCE!
In this day and age the whole temple looks like a monumental progress in brickwork.
Activate at the google earth pic of the top view of Parthasarathy temple.
Brutally the totality temple has been congested on top. Precisely the face of the Narasimhar sannidhi is not congested.
The temple was not like this in citizens days.
Mad constructions in due course restrain cut off the air reach plug the garbhagraha.
In olden days, the open areas would be thatched voguish utsavs and in summer. Devotees used to obtain the payments as part of service to the temple. By making unwavering ceilings and unwavering closures at spend time at sitting room, the answer of devotees in temple affairs is denied, furthermore making the temple thud like a bastion wherever not even air can contribution.
In exact opposite, thud at the Koodalazhagar temple (Irunthayur of Paripaadal).
Nearby is ample open space give or take and the air reach within the temple is good.
But in the environs of once more the temple has been shrunk as it has lost its container and a branch of Vaigai which was gone flowing humid to this temple. This temple is in kick from the 2nd Sangam session forwards. The Pandyan king humorless on his normal of Associate precisely formerly steal wash down in the container of this temple. The temple history says this. But wherever is the container today?
Periyaazhwar had the knowledge of the deity of this temple for whom he sang the "Thirup Pallaandu". Such was the majesty of the deity of this temple.
In this day and age the temple had just managed to keep up its spirit hut in sensitivity within the four defenses. The precisely relief is that no knocked out structure has come up maiming the atmospherics of this temple. If give is an ISO official approval, it want aim these issues and not what the comforts the opinionated enjoys in the temple.
Activate at Meenakshi temple - which was in figures up till now for the substitute of AC.
Ordinary this temple has some open areas give or take. Our pedigree who had brought up the 1000 pillared structures and the like restrain done nicely minus maiming the atmospherics within the temple complex.
Prospect to the ISO official approval to Parthasarathy temple, the AC invention looks like a photograph to add to the satisfied of the consumer.
Everyplace did the ultimatum get ahead of to arrange air conditioners?
The culprit is the suspension all give or take.
The closures could not restrain come up minus the to the point of the contract employed by the Majestic.
The suspension hinders air motivation.
The governmental contract thinks precisely on brute aspects.
It thinks precisely about the money the temple gets.
At present all types of temple services are sold!
Haulage the deity on shoulders voguish band was gone not rushed as a unselfish service that a opinionated can do to God.
In this day and age it is a compensated service and officials are celebratory to glory all through their management stuff in ability for laborious for this service too!
That is the level of drop in maintaining the temple culture.
This is the way temples are degenerating in Kali yuga!
The temples behest candidly lose their power to protect the family unit and the community.
Not precisely in Parthasarathy temple, I felt a sympathetic of suffocation in the perfect Oppiliappan temple as well in my later than usual regular. These are the temples I restrain consistently visited to the same degree my early development. Of course the temple feelings is gone with pompous structures and extensions coming up. It looks like how a greedy council receptacle behest dwell upon his council to let it out to spend time at tenants.
If we allow the charge to scuttle its base on temples, the temples behest lose their suitability.
In the past seeing Parthasarathy temple, I am border on that ISO is not the weight attachment.
The if possible the notion is built on the undesirability of treating the devotees as trade and temples on par with export establishments, the rupture.
The better pace is to podium out the temples from Government's hands.
The household community give or take the temple want pace in.
They want podium an award and reverence in the temple of their borough.
It is their temple, their farther reverence and the God of that temple is their keeper.
In turn they restrain to protect the temples in their contemporary forms for their extreme generations.

This Russian New Year's Eve women's divination ritual foretells the fortunes awaiting in the New Year. In the days before private bathrooms and indoor plumbing, the bathhouse was a place of social as well as hygienic significance. It is also often a place of great magical and spiritual significance. What is now only a "bathhouse" was once the home for spiritual, shamanic, and magic rites. Babies were born in the bathhouse, healings performed, men and women readied for marriage. Post Christianity, the bathhouse retained its power but also developed an aura of the forbidden.
In Russia, the bathhouse maintains a magical aura akin to a crossroads. The bathhouse is also the home of powerful spirits, ancient pagan deities now demoted to bathhouse guardians. Forgotten spirits tend to be grouchy spirits, although not always. This ritual takes place at midnight, ideally at midnight, the threshold of the New Year.
Taking turns, women remove their underwear and approach the bathhouse backwards, skirts lifted over their heads. The bathhouse door is left partially open. Each woman sticks her naked bottom through the door and waits.
If the resident spirit slaps or scratches her, this is not a good sign for the coming year. If, on the other hand, she receives a gentle and pleasurable caress, with hands rather than claws, her future shines bright, while a kiss is auspicious enough to go buy some lottery tickets.

HOW MANY OF YOU HAVE SOMEONE IN YOUR LIFE THAT YOU FIND DIFFICULT TO LOVE? COULD YOU BE THAT DIFFICULT PERSON TO SOMEONE ELSE?
This thought plagued me this morning as the Lord and I sat "just talking". I'd told the Lord a few weeks ago that I didn't care for a particular person's personality and that I was glad I no longer had to deal with them and all of their drama.
"OUT OF SIGHT, OUT OF MIND."
So I went... on my merry little way.
God reminded me of something this morning though.
"I AM STILL REQUIRED TO LOVE THE DIFFICULT!"
The more I pondered on my difficult relationships the more I saw where I LEARNED SOMETHING ABOUT ME. COULD IT BE THAT THOSE "DIFFICULT" PEOPLE SERVED A PURPOSE IN MY LIFE AFTER ALL? And that all the fuss and fight wasn't null and void?
THE MORE I BEGAN TO FOCUS ON THE VARIOUS RELATIONSHIPS THAT I'VE HAD AND HAVE IN MY LIFE THAT HAVE CAUSED ME ANGUISH, THE MORE I SEE HOW THE PURGING HAS BROUGHT OUT UGLINESS IN ME THAT I WOULD NOT HAVE SEEN OTHERWISE.
NOT ONLY THAT, BUT I NOW SEE, EVEN MORE, THAT EVERYBODY NEEDS SOMEBODY TO LOVE THEM.
GOD SHOWED ME HOW SOMETIMES HURTING PEOPLE, HURT PEOPLE. Sometimes difficult people are people who are really hurting people, and their scared.
THIS IS WHY WHEN WE COME TO RELATIONSHIPS, THOUGH IT'S DIFFICULT TO DO, WE MUSTN'T LOOK FOR A RELATIONSHIP OR PEOPLE TO COMPLETE US. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT WE FIND OUR WHOLENESS AND COMPLETION IN CHRIST AND NOT IN THE PERSON WE HAVE THE RELATIONSHIP WITH. PEOPLE CAN'T DO IT FOR US.
Don't get me wrong, there are certain things that we must require in our relationships, but looking for someone to complete us or making them an idol "little god" is not the path God wants us to travel.
SO YES, YOU AND I CAN LOVE THAT DIFFICULT PERSON. We can love them because God is love, and because God is love, He loves us and He's given us His Spirit of Love. Therefore, we must approach our relationships in a way where we don't look for other's to be our savior.
Don't put unhealthy or unrealistic expectations on someone else.
"...W"HOEVER LOVES GOD MUST ALSO LOVE HIS BROTHER. ~ 1 JOHN 4:21"
"DON'T EXPECT ANOTHER TO LOVE LIKE GOD BELOVED. ONLY GOD CAN LOVE LIKE GOD."
"BUT GOD DEMONSTRATES HIS OWN LOVE FOR US IN THIS: WHILE WE WERE STILL SINNERS CHRIST DIED FOR US. ~ ROMANS 5:8 "
What I am thankful for-
~ God allowing the people I deem difficult to come into my life
~ for having love and lost than to never have loved at all {but who really looses once they experience love}
~ for being who I am... faults and all
~ clean water
~ life
~ lessons learned
~ new beginnings
~ teaching my children
~ family
~ being loved {I know I say this one often}
~ forgiveness
~ second and third... chances
~ God's mercies
~ sunshine
~ overgrown weeds
~ dandelions
~ fall soon to be
~ smell of downy
~ bubble baths by candle light
~ stillness
~ the processing of my thoughts
~ fresh vegetables

"It's alarming that the reason Gene Schaerr gives for taking this position has nothing to do with the U.S. Constitution or the legal issues at play. Schaerr's entire motivation for taking this anti-equality case is to impose a certain religious viewpoint on all Utahns - and that's wrong,....
It's fair to question whether all of the arguments they have made are just an elaborate front for some other agenda."

When people are thinking of using Binaural Beats to aid their meditation, usually they have little or no knowledge of the possible feelings they will experience whilst using Binaural Beats.There are many symptoms of meditation, but with Binaural Beats you may experience them sooner rather than after months/years of practice. I am now going to try and pass you some valuable information.Why is it valuable? Because without knowing what you may experience when using Binaural Beats, people may become worried, concerned. A few people have actually told me that they did not know what to expect and they totally freaked out. This is a shame because it can make you apprehensive next time and actually limit the effect you are trying to achieve.Just as a brief overview you may experience some or even all of the following sensations:1. Your body can feel so heavy that it feels like it cannot move, some people liken this to feeling like someone else is in control.2. You may experience very vivid visualizations - usually in very bright colors. Sometimes these may appear as psychic faces.3. If you are trying for Astral Projection, then you may experience your body vibrating, which is liable to freak you out if you are not expecting it.There are, of course, many more sensations that can be expected but too many to cover in one post/article.The main thing to remember is practicing meditation for relaxation cannot harm you. It is just a case of letting go of your built in defense system (which usually means if it feels strange then reject it). Go with the flow and you will be amazed at the relaxed state you find yourself in.It is only when you are trying for something more advanced, such as Astral Projection or working on your psychic abilities that you would need to cover your back so to speak. In this case please read Why We Need Psychic Protection.So keep checking back to see some more tips.Happy meditating.By: Lisa.C.MooreI have been interested in the Spirit side of things since a very young age.

Version 1 of the Eight of Pentacles from the Moneky Tarot (MDE 2012).
Last month, many of you saw a version of the Sun card I draw for the Tarot Blog Hop. One of my friends liked the monkeys in the card so much that she wants me to draw a whole Tarot deck with a monkey in every card, a Monkey Tarot if you will.
Here is another card (rough draft) with a monkey in it. There is another picture that I am thinking of using for the Eight of Pentacles, but I thought that I would share this version with my readers...or at least, the uncolored version of it.
I am not sure. Do we really need an entire Tarot deck centered around monkeys?! Feel free to express your desire (or lack ther) for a Moneky Tarot in the comment section. Remember only YOU can prevent me from inflicting a Monkey Tarot deck on the world.

Commemorated on November 24
The Hallowed Victim Mercurius of Smolensk was a Slav by biological, believably from Moravia, the innocent person of a abundant line. Brought up in Accord, St Mercurius in zeal for the true Anticipation spent his own environmental land for Russia, where he served in the armed forces of the Prince of Smolensk. The lovely soldier on the sly led an sober life. He was meticulous in fasting, he was childlike, eating his nights at prayer, and devotedly preparing himself to link for Christ. In the see 1239 a cram of Tatars [Mongols], ahead of having laid ravage to many Russian cities, appeared in the field of Smolensk and set up encampment 25 versts unacceptable at Dolgomost, violent to decipher the borough and its holy places.
A church caretaker, praying by night in the Smolensk minster past a wonderworking icon of the Theotokos, heard the devise of the Queen of Heaven potent him to find the holy warrior and say to him: "Mercurius, go forth inside clash, for the Sovereign Member of the aristocracy ask you." The soldier went himself to the minster and heard the devise of the All-Pure Virgin, distribution him to unravel the nemesis and hopeful him delightful subsidy.
The warrior of Christ set off that very night to the Tatar encampment at Dolgomost. He fought nearby with the exclusive of the Tatar armed forces, a vast hectic of impressive hardness. He killed him and entered inside single-combat with the nemesis anchor. Invoking the name of the Member of the aristocracy and of the All-Pure Theotokos, the holy warrior had it many of the nemesis. The Tatar warriors watched with dread as lightning-bearing men and a resplendent Man aided St Mercurius in the unravel. Weak to stand opposed to the warrior of Christ, they retreated in pastime. St Mercurius was himself killed in the clash by the son of the Tatar vast he had killed.
The natives of Smolensk, saved by way of the powerful bureau of the Member of the aristocracy and the Most Hallowed Theotokos, respectfully unseen the structure of the soldier-martyr in the minster of the Dormition of the Most Hallowed Theotokos. Diametrically in the rear his death, St Mercurius appeared in a specter to the church caretaker and ordered that his armor be hung manager his perilous, hopeful the Smolensk progress dedicated help and bureau in every dismal and wage war. Established today the beach sandals of the holy Victim Mercurius are silent sealed in the Smolensk minster church. His Feast was established at the end of the sixteenth century, and in 1509 the natives of Smolensk were ahead of calling him their special sponsor.

SAINT OR Feast POSTED THIS Woo 2008(with 2007's link fashionable moreover):
Rod Dreyer, appalled by the design of a poster advertising Benedict's visit to Britain, wonders why so much of the modern ecclesiastical aesthetic is so very bad. From "The Devil Is In the Design", some of his reaction to contemporary church architecture:
Nothing ages faster or worse than ecclesial attempts at stylistic relevance. You drive by churches, Catholic and Protestant, that were built in the 1960s and 1970s, and you just feel so bad for those buildings, as if they were poly-blend leisure suits left hanging on the rack, unloved. Why is it that so many churches built prior to the Second World War, no matter what their style, have a sort of timeless dignity? And so many built afterward do not?....
I wonder if congregations that pour lots of money into building megachurches and suchlike today ever think about how the design will look in 30 to 50 years. We are all prisoners of our own eras, of course, and we can only guess about how the aesthetic choices we make today will wear in time. The problem with building churches is the same as with any building: when it looks old and tired and embarrassingly outdated, you can't donate it to a thrift store like you can a no-longer-fashionable suit. The problem is even worse with a church, because church architecture should convey a sense of the Eternal. There are a number of ways to do this. I have been equally moved by a bare Congregationalist parish in Vermont and a Baroque German Catholic parish in New Orleans. But somehow, after the Second World War, we forgot how to build beautiful churches, and... we've lost a sense of the beautiful in church aesthetics, preferring instead the banal, the sentimental and the saccharine.....
...Perhaps rather than simply complain about bad taste in church design, I should consider what contemporary church aesthetics (architecturally, liturgically, etc.) tell us about the kind of religion they embody. Maybe it's not so much the forms that I reject as it is the substantive qualities of the religion the forms embody. If that's so, what do contemporary church aesthetics and design tell us about contemporary religion? What kind of cult, and what kind of deity - I ask in the anthropological sense - has its priests conduct its rituals vested in beachwear? What is the message about God and the faith that aesthetic is supposed to convey to the faithful? What will it teach them about who God is, and who they are? Because it will teach them something; it can't "not" do that..... [more]I'm convinced that just as some people, although they can hear, are tone deaf, others, although sighted, can't see; just as some can't hear the beauty of Bach, others can't appreciate the symmetry and doctrinal symbolism of a sanctuary. So they tart it up to make it relevant - or build something that looks more like a school auditorium, appropriate for teaching or lecturing, but helping not at all with worship.

IMAGINE
THERE'S GIANTS IN THE LAND
A certain contributor to Tribulation-Now passed along the image shown in the center graphic above. He also pointed out the surprising similarity to the image of the Pope shown on the left. At the time my "imagination" took a hold of me because I was thinking about the "locusts" from the pit in Revelation 9.
I further found it rather fascinating that this imagery was supposedly of the "canals" on Mars, AND the professor who presented it was from the "Intel" community with his name being "Doctor Smith". Okay I know what you are thinking.... yeah right... "Lost in Space".
This is not meant to be anything but an "imagination" provoking thought.

So what if the intention of the FEMA Camps is to "encage" humans in a reverse concept of the movie "District 9"? After all "they" would have to contain us somehow... right?

Perhaps it's time for the Christian community to "wake up" and realize we have the FORCE of the Holy Spirit on our side. I find it utterly remarkable that Pastor Andrew Wommack used a similar "metaphore" in a large Presbyterian church and felt compelled to apologize for DARING to bring "science fiction" into his description of what "sprituality" was like.
Is it possible that the POWER of the "Holy Spirit" of GOD is a type of FORCE?
Is it possible this FORCE is going to be used against the enemy during this forthcoming onslaught?

Brethren,
In the early days of the Golden Dawn there was a significant distinction when it came to grades and roles in the Order. Back in the early days of 1888 when our Order was founded, the influence of British Masonry was extremely strong. S.L. MACGREGOR MATHERS WAS THE ONE HOLD OUT FOR ALLOWING WOMEN IN THE ORDER ON EQUAL STANDING WITH MEN. HE REFUSED TO HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE GOLDEN DAWN UNTIL THIS COMMITMENT WAS MADE. HIS DECISION TO STAND OUT FOR FEMININE RIGHTS WAS THE FIRST BIG BLOW TO EGO-BASED HIERARCHY.
Today, the Esoteric Order of the Golden Dawn continues to move in a direction where grades are simply a way of discovering what you have learned and what you need to know in your own personal transmigration within the Order and the Light.
IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE GOLDEN DAWN ORDERS AROUND THE WORLD DEVELOP A COMMUNITY WHEREBY WE VALUE THE NEOPHYTE AND MUCH AS THE ADEPT. BOTH ARE LIGHT WORKERS ON THE PATHWAY OF LIGHT. WHO ARE WE TO KNOW FOR CERTAIN WHO ARE THE MOST SPIRITUAL ADVANCED? AS A MATTER OF FACT, IN THE ESOTERIC ORDER OF THE GOLDEN DAWN THIS IS NOT EVEN A QUESTION THAT IS ASKED. GRADES DO CARRY A GREAT PRIVILEGE AND I WILL SHARE THOSE IS A FEW SENTENCES EXACTLY WHAT THOSE PRIVILEGES ARE. YOU ABSOLUTELY NEED TO READ THIS IF YOU ARE AN ADEPT IN OUR ORDER OR ANY ORDER THAT PROVIDES A SPIRITUAL PATH.
I HOLD THE HIGHEST GRADE IN THE ORDER OF THE ESOTERIC ORDER OF THE GOLDEN DAWN THROUGHOUT THE WORLD. YET, WITH ALL THIS I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT I HAVE ANY ADVANTAGE TO ADVANCE SPIRITUALLY OVER A NEOPHYTE. WE ARE ALL ON THIS BOAT TOGETHER AND WE WORK TOGETHER TO INVOKE LIGHT, AND HEAL THOSE WHO NEED HEALING AND TO INVOKE PEACE AND PROSPERITY IN OUR WORLD. ALL OF US CAN DO THIS; IT DOES NOT MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE IF YOU ARE THE CHIEF, OR SOMEONE BEGINNING THE MAGICAL WALK. WE NEED TO LOVE AND NURTURE EACH OTHER WITH THE SPIRIT OF LIGHT.
Now, there are those who worked very hard for their grade and place great value in it and believe it is some kind of magical privilege. Well to those Brethren here is the privilege it brings:
1. THE PRIVILEGE TO SERVE OTHERS WHO ARE LEARNING ABOUT THE MAGIC OF LIGHT
2. THE PRIVILEGE TO BUILD A TEMPLE AND PROVIDE A HAVEN FOR THOSE WHO WISH TO ESCAPE THE STORM OF THE NORMAL AND ENTER INTO THE WORLD OF LIGHT
3. THE PRIVILEGE TO SPEND HOURS HEALING OTHERS, TO BRING LIGHT TO THOSE WHO NEED IT
4. THE PRIVILEGE TO WRITE PAPERS AND DO LECTURES SO OTHERS CAN LEARN WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN.
5. THE PRIVILEGE TO PROTECT THE INNOCENT.
6. THE PRIVILEGE TO INVOKE THE LIGHT OF PEACE INTO THE WORLD.
Fraters and Sorors, and future initiates of the Golden Dawn, WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER. I am no more, nor less that simply and happily your brother in Light.
I believe this year we as the Golden Dawn community which include SEVERAL GOLDEN DAWN ORDERS, can make great progress in the growth of invoking more Light into the world, more healing and peace. This Isis like growth needs to come an a place of urgency to invoke Light and Healing into your own life first, then life of others and those we who are called to the pathway of Light and a Golden Dawn Order.
WE NEED TO DO IT NOW. THIS IS OUR TIME. WE ARE THE SPARKS OF LIGHT IN THE WORLD THAT WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR.
On behalf of the Chiefs of the Second Order of the Esoteric Order of the Golden Dawn and our Adepts around the world, and those who have entrusted us with their magical development in the Outer, and those who work so hard to make this a special Order,
HAVE A MAGICAL NEW YEAR 2010.

P.S. Here is a short list of other Golden Dawn Orders that I believe are on the pathway of Light and want to empower the individual and bring Light, Healing and Peace into the World. If I have excluded anyone it is only because I do not know them, or they have demonstrated opposite qualities.

2. ORDER OF THE GOLDEN DAWN CANADA

4. SELF INITIATION GROUP OF THE GOLDEN DAWN
WARNING: This is only a theory. You will have to read this with an open mind. Hopefully, since Christians are supposed to be lovers of truth I'm hoping we can all consider that our current interpretations of prophecy may be slightly incorrect since we know that 1 Corinthians 13 tells us we see "through a glass, darkly" and that God told Daniel in Daniel 12:4, "But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased."
In the first two parts of this series I tried to make the case as to why we might be wise to reconsider our long-held and cherished (not to mention aggressively protected) views on prophecy especially when it comes to the Rapture.
Not only is there biblical, scriptural evidence suggesting such, but we're also seeing a unique trend emerge: other scholars of world reknown on this subject are also beginning to rethink their stated positions. It's almost as if we're seeing the "unsealing" mentioned in Daniel 12:4 starting to take place at this key moment in human history.
That being said, in this final part of our study and analysis I simply want to try to pull together all the various interpretations/predictions that have come out recently involving the Rapture because some of them are imminent (no pun intended!).
CHESHVAN 2008: A NEW LOOK AT THE RAPTURE AND FEAST OF TRUMPETS?
As previously mentioned above, we've documented the importance for all students of prophecy to consider the Jewish Holidays, Festivals, and Feasts in relation to key events occuring along God's prophetic timeline.
Recorded history (including recent history during the last century) clearly shows that there is something to be said for the importance of understanding not only what these Jewish holidays have traditionally represented, but also what that knowledge means in relation to end times prophecy as we use it to attempt to understand what they could tell us will happen as far as the "when" is concerned when it comes to the major unfulfilled prophetic events.
The four Spring Feasts corresponded - to the exact day - to a precise event in the life of the Lord and of the Church. Historically, it's been reasonable to think that the three Autumn Feasts will also correspond to capital events in the life of the Lord and of His Church.
What if we've been wrong in that assumption?
The Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah) is the first of the three great Autumn Feasts, in the Jewish religious calendar. These two series of Feasts are separated by a long period of four to five months, a period that corresponds to the time of the Church. It is a time of harvest ripening and it is also a time a great dryness in Israel.
The Feast of Trumpets is the only one to be celebrated on a day of the new moon. It must be celebrated for two days, which form one "long day". It is known as the feast "that we know neither the day nor the hour."
FOR OUR PURPOSES HERE, THAT WILL SUFFICE ALTHOUGH YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION ON THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE FEAST OF TRUMPETS TO THE JEWISH HERE.
Needless to say, this is a lot of convincing evidence to suggest that previous scholars - men and women much smarter than me - are right about the Rapture occuring during the Feast of Trumpets. The most compelling of which is when you take into account the fact that this feast lasts for two days so the correlation with Jesus' words in Matthew 24:36 "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but my Father only" we seem to reach a convincing conclusion.
Even so, we must ask, What if we've been wrong in that assumption? Please hear me out on this one. I can assure you that I'll use the Bible and our established knowledge of these feats to make my case rather than rely solely on pure speculation.
Case in point, it just so happens that Cheshvan is the second month on the civil calendar following the month of Tishri. We know Nisan is the first month on the religious calendar, but I want to focus on the civil calendar right now.
Noah's flood took place 1,000 years before Moses and the times given are based on the civil calendar used at that time. In Genesis 7:11 it says, "In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened."
Thus, the month of Cheshvan is the time when Noah and his family entered the Ark. Well, the anniversary of that very day is the coming Sabbath of November 15, 2008!
That's right! That's tomorrow! I think it's EXTREMELY interesting that not only is it the very day the floods came (a day of judgment for the world), but the Torah reading for that day is the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah!
That Sabbath is also the same day the leaders from the nations of the world are gathering together to discuss the global financial problems in Washington D.C.! It is truly judgment day in a sense!
At this point, I would like to provide you with a 6-part interview with the man who discovered this. His name is Mark Biltz and he has some REMARKABLE EVIDENCE that we all need to prayerfully consider! Each clip is about 5-10 minutes in length and is very captivating (particularly Parts 4-6 if you want the abridged version). Watch for yourself before continuing with our analysis.

Rapture - Fall 2008? (Part 4)
Rapture - Fall 2008? (Part 5)
Rapture - Fall 2008? (Part 6)
WE CAN KNOW THE TIMING OF THE RAPTURE!
Rather than only being able to know the season of the Rapture, I'm beginning to believe that we can also know the timing of the Rapture - in a sense.
Of course, there are several common criticisms and objections to all of this. The most notable is is when people point to Matthew 24:36 that reads, "But of that DAY AND HOUR knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only."
Are you sitting down? Look at Marilyn Agee of "BIBLE PROPHECY CORNER" recently discovered that dovetails nicely with the Biltz position because it will take your breath away! She writes on her website:
"I'm no prophet, but it now seems that Jesus himself gave us the last clue we need a long time ago. It's so plain in Matthew 24, I don't know why I didn't get it before this. I knew it was in Scripture, but I looked everywhere but the right place, in plain view. I should have known that in plain view was the best place to hide something. What threw me off was Matthew 24:36, where Jesus said, 'But of that DAY AND HOUR knoweth no man.' After so many reminded me of that so many times, I skimmed over what followed it. Look what he said in verse 42: 'Watch therefore: for ye know not what HOUR your Lord doth come.' HE LEFT OUT THE DAY! In case we missed it, He even repeated it in verse 44, He said, 'Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an HOUR as ye think not the Son of man cometh." HE LEFT OUT THE DAY AGAIN!"
That means that in between verses 36 and 44, Jesus revealed the DAY to us, which is Cheshvan 17, "THE DAY THAT NOE ENTERED INTO THE ARK." The wise virgins are not in the dark as to the DAY, just the hour! The foolish virgins don't know the day or the hour. Jesus put the day in plain view for our sake!
Let's take another look at Matthew 24 and what Jesus Himself said during the Olivet Discourse. Jesus said, "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. But of that DAY AND HOUR knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. But AS THE DAYS OF NOE WERE, SO SHALL ALSO THE COMING OF THE SON OF MAN BE. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until THE DAY THAT NOE ENTERED INTO THE ARK (Cheshvan 17), And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; SO SHALL ALSO THE COMING OF THE SON OF MAN BE. Then (at the same time, i.e., on Cheshvan 17, 5769; November 15, 2008) shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Watch therefore: for ye know not what HOUR your Lord doth come. But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an HOUR as ye think not the Son of man cometh. Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in DUE SEASON (kairos, set time)?"
Plus, Revelation 3:3 says, "Remember therefore what you have received and heard; keep it, and repent. But if you are not alert, I will come like a thief, and you have no idea at what HOUR I will come against you."
Friends, this has the potential to be a HUGE discovery for us! I guess we'll know soon enough since tomorrow is still November 15, 2008 last I checked.
FIRST FRUITS VS. THE ELECT
All kidding aside, what if she's right? Still not convinced? There's more AMAZING INFORMATION for us to consider.

If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them; Then I WILL GIVE YOU RAIN IN DUE SEASON, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees (i.e., nations?) of the field (i.e., world?) shall yield their FRUIT."
We are called a kind of firstfruits. James 1:18 says, "Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be A KIND OF FIRSTFRUITS of his creatures." Cheshvan 17, 5769 (November 15, 2008) is on Saturday - the Sabbath!
Luke 21:36 says, But be alert at all times, praying that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man." Here, we have a passage in Luke that tells us to pray "to escape all these things that are going to take place" AND "be counted worthy."
The things that are going to take place must be the disastrous and terrifying events of the Tribulation, which as stated above, the Philadelphia Church in Revelation 3:10 is told it will be spared from, correct?
If you're taking notes, Luke 21:36 and Revelation 3:10 appear to state the same thing - that at least "SOME BELIEVERS" will be counted worthy to escape "these things that are going to take place" (Luke 21:36) and be spared from the "hour of trial" (Revelation 3:10).
Then in Matthew 24:22 we find, "For at that time there will be great tribulation, the kind that hasn't taken place from the beginning of the world until now and never will again! Unless those days were limited, no one would survive. But those days will be limited because of the elect."
In this passage in Matthew, we see that there are a group of believers (the "elect") who obviously have to go through the time of Tribulation. In fact, people who believe that the Rapture does not occur until after the Tribulation, cite this verse above as evidence.
However, a few verses down in Matthew, it reads:
"As the DAYS OF NOAH were, so the coming of the Son of Man will be. For in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying, and giving in marriage, UNTIL THE DAY NOAH BOARDED THE ARK. They didn't know until the flood came and swept them all away. So this is the way the coming of the Son of Man will be: Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and one left. Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and one left. Therefore be alert, since you don't know what HOUR your Lord is coming."
What is described above, "the days of Noah," does not sound at all like a time of Tribulation. For all we know, it could be talking about today or tomorrow! Here we are told specifically that people (referred to as "first fruits" elsewhere in the Bible) will be taken from the Earth before sudden destruction hits, which can only mean pre-tribulation.
There's more evidence to support this view in Mark. The Porter doesn't know the hour, but he knows the day! Mark 13:33-37 says, "Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time (kairos, set time, due time) is. For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. WATCH YE THEREFORE: FOR YE KNOW NOT WHEN THE MASTER OF THE HOUSE COMETH, AT EVEN, OR AT MIDNIGHT, OR AT THE COCKCROWING, OR IN THE MORNING: Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch."
At even, midnight, cockcrowing, or morning is describing the hour. The porter already knows the day!
Now, let's try to tie this all together. Proponents of the Pre-Tribulation Rapture believe that it's the Rapture that kicks off the final 7 years, and that immediately following the Rapture is the signing of the peace treaty with Israel because that's what the Bible tells us needs to be in place to launch the Tribulation.
Fascinating then, to read about Arab Foreign Ministers to hold an emergency meeting on the Middle East peace process on November 26, 2008!
Adding more credibility that we could be VERY CLOSE to an enormous prophetic event is what respected scholar and author Grant Jeffery (akin to a Hal Lindsey or Terry James amongst others) had to say in his newest book. He feels that the Gog-Magog War (Ezekiel 38 and 39) will occur on the 24th of Cheshvan! The 24th of Cheshvan, 5769 is Saturday, November 22, 2008! Just a single week after the Rapture (assuming the above is correct)! I should also note that this is AN ENTIRELY NEW POSITION HELD BY JEFFERY AS WELL evoking Daniel 12:4 once again!
Plus, in the Autumn of 2008 (where we are on the calendar today at this very moment), the Feast of Trumpets will mark the beginning of another cycle of seven years for the Jewish people. The covenant between Israel and the surrounding nations is also strengthened by the Antichrist for a period of seven years (Daniel 9:27), so the thought is that this agreement could fall into one of these seven-year cycles on the Jewish calendar.
The fact that the international community is aiming for a peace agreement by the end of 2008 is therefore quite significant. The book of Daniel states that the actual time of Jacob's trouble will begin after the agreement is broken by the Antichrist, and will run for a period of three and a half years (Daniel 12:7), or 42 months (Revelation 11:2), or 1260 days. Daniel also mentions another figure, 1335 days (Daniel 12:12). IN FACT, WE MAY HAVE ALREADY SEEN THIS HAPPEN WITH VERY LITTLE FANFARE.
As if that weren't enough, we also read about same-sex marriage advocates have marked November 15, 2008 as a "National Day of Protest" and are planning marches around the country to rally against California's Proposition 8, a voter initiative that passed on Election Day, defining marriage in the state as strictly between one man and one woman. More proof that we are "as in the doays of Noah" is it not? Or maybe as in the days of Lot is more appropriate (Luke 17:28).
Unbelievable coincidences if that's how you choose to view this!
CONCLUSIONS
Some will undoubtedly ask, Ok, if this is true and such an earth-shattering discovery that turns current prophecy teaching and thinking on its head then why isn't the media all over this? That's a great question, but I have a better answer!
Proverbs 25:2 says, "It is the glory of God to conceal a matter..."
I think it's remarkable that within the past 3 months (since roughly August 2008 beginning with Russia's invasion of Georgia setting the stage for the coming Gog-Magog War) the world has been inundated with one thing after another all of which have some sort of major prophetic significance.
This isn't just a new Bible interpretation, but a simple idea people have looked into. God put this search on their minds at the appointed time. Many brilliant men have spent their lives searching the Bible for this kind of thing. Yet, this was left buried until the year it may come to pass. If 2008 as it is linked to 2015 is truly a significant year in God's unfolding plan for the end times or last days then God withheld it up to the last minute for His purposes.
This is about eclipses on the Jewish feast days or holidays as God set them up in the Bible. More so something I found even more amazing to do with 49 years (Jubilee), June 7, 1967 (the day Jerusalem first came under Jewish control in the Six Day War), Daniel 9:25 and Isaac Newton. Most of this has to do with easily obtainable facts and statistics that no one put together before now. Again, Daniel 12:4 comes to mind here.The one story that sent Mark Biltz on this path of discovery was THE STORY PUBLISHED BY WORLDNETDAILY ABOUT NASA AND THE BLOOD RED MOONS. Simply put, sets of lunar eclipses falling on Jewish holidays spanning 600 years from 1493 to past 2100 happened only three times! They are in 1948 (the year of the birth of Israel as a nation again), in 1967 (when Jerusalem was captured), and they will be in 2015 (?)!
Hmmm, definitely seems to be the "signs in the stars" Daniel prophesied about. So, you can see that's there's also a scientific and proven spiritual basis for all of this. There's so much more, but I've already gone on long enough.
What if all of this is accurate and spot on? What if the Rapture were to happen tomorrow? What's your initial reaction right now? What will you do with these last few, precious hours on earth before we are caught up with our Lord and Savior?
Like I said, there have been several people who have made claims to have known the timing of the Rapture and they were proven false so I recognize that this could be just another in a long line of well-meaning, but completely wrong Christians.
I also recognize the risk of damaging one's witness and testimony for appearing as though one is a "date-setter" only to have that day come and go like any other.
Even so, we are commanded to watch and pray that we are worthy to escape what's to come. We're also told that very few Christians will make it. It's important to ask ourselves and God why that is. Perhaps this three-part series gives us a glimpse into some of the reasons why - because we were unwilling to consider an alternative interpretation from the one we've grown so accustomed to.
I will admit that there's compelling evidence that tomorrow could be a truly historic day. Lord, I sincerely hope so! If it's not, I will continue to seek my Lord and Savior with all of my heart and soul.
Hope to see you in Heaven soon!
