The air sign Libra gives the message of balance when the right and left scales are balanced. If the law in society becomes disordered, the balance is disturbed; polarisation arises between the different groups in society. Anyone who behaves unlawfully disturbs the harmony of the balance. Today, the law is regularly violated in every conceivable aspect.
Saturn is exalted in Libra; he enables balance to be achieved through correct decisions. They are to be made on the principle of responsibility and not on the basis of advantage, convenience or profit.
The law should be understood as a means to restore balance and not to impose punishment. Righteousness, rather than punishment, should be the goal of the law. Libra governs and guides the path of decisions. It also regulates the application of purifying measures. Love forms the basis for righteousness and restitution or restoration. Venus, the ruler of Libra, stands for true love, which leads to tolerance, compassion and understanding.

Picture to the month of Libra

Libra symbolizes the state in which life in the outer world has unfolded to the maximum. The soul incarnated in the body is in danger of losing itself in the affairs of everyday life and drowning in them if it does not consciously turn to the light. The Teachers and Masters of Wisdom are always ready to “fish” the seeking souls, i.e. they help seekers to free themselves from entanglements and direct seekers towards the path of Light.

When we strive for love and not for power, people gather around us. By sharing knowledge and wisdom, we guide them on the path. In doing so, we also grow ourselves and our lives become unlimited. The stars such as the Great Bear, Pleiades and Sirius are reflected on Earth as the Hierarchy of Masters, and the teachers of the Hierarchy are our guides.

In the centre of the picture is a boat with a pair of fishermen casting nets. Human figures can be seen in the reflections in the water. They symbolize the people who are looking for guidance on the path to the light. The light reflections of the sun form a path up to the stars of the zodiac and beyond to infinity.

I used photos of several scenes from India for the design of the boat with the fishers and the waves of the light path. To illustrate the people lost in matter, I embedded elements from a group photo into the waves. The golden yellow stands for the light of the buddhic plane; the multi-coloured reflections in the water symbolize the thoughts and emotions of the lower planes of the material world.

The arch with the figures of the zodiac was designed using a photo of the old astrological clock from the medieval “Zytglogge” tower in Berne’s Old Town. Next to the Libra symbol, the path of light leads up into the expanses of the subtle worlds.

Not all in the West know who Lord Krishna is and much less is known about his spiritual significance. Although he lived about 5300 years ago, his energy keeps on expressing on the planet. I read about Krishna in the 1970s and felt much fascinated.

27 years ago, Master Kumar inaugurated a Krishna statue in Wermelskirchen, Germany during a celebration of Krishna’s birthday in August 1997. The Master has gifted Krishna statues to group members from different countries around the globe and personally installed and consecrated them. It was a great program to anchor and strengthen the presence of Lord Krishna in the lives of those who came in contact.

I came with a group from Switzerland to Wermelskirchen; it was my first physical contact with Master Kumar and the World Teacher Trust.

It was a beautiful inauguration ceremony and ritual through which I came in touch with the magic of Lord Krishna’s soul music. And this touch of His presence was anchored in me. I felt drawn to the Krishna statue whenever I saw it again. It is not stone, but a living presence.

The inauguration was embedded in a seminar, where Sri Kumar spoke about the book “The Music of the Soul” by Master EK – the soul music with which Lord Krishna transformed people. The book and the soul music also left a lasting impact in my life.

Now, the statue was given to Sabine and Manfred to find a new permanent place at their home in Heiligenberg (meaning, the Holy Mountain) – in the rose garden that Manfred has cultured with much love and devotion. 10 days ago, a group of 9 members brought the statue from Northern Germany to the south. It was installed with a little ceremony and some more members joint the celebration.

I could not participate in this inauguration but I was involved in preparation work when I visited Manfred and Sabine for some days beginning of July. Inwardly, I was much there at the celebration and I received photos and video-clips of the beautiful inauguration: Klim Krishnaya, Govindaya, Gopijana Vallabhaya Namaha – the sacred sounds of mantras were blessing the atmosphere of the whole area and beyond.

4 weeks ago, I had given an envelope with a symbol and a little glass jewel for the place of the statue to a friend from Germany to send it to Heiligenberg. The envelope, however, did first a tour through southern France and now finally arrived in Heiligenberg. I was thrilled to see the new photos of the statue yesterday.

I share here the pics with you so that you too can feel the magnetism of the Presence of Lord Krishna.

Three months ago, I blogged about Preparing a Home for my Paintings and how the paintings arrived at their home in Murcia, Southern Spain, at the farm house of Ursula and Jesus from the WTT Vamsi group (vamsi: the flute, of Lord Krishna).

There is a huge hall which needed repair and preparation but which seemed to be ideal for a Gallery of Synthesis for the Images of Synthesis, as is the name of the new series of paintings which started end of 2009. Jesus promised to give regular updates about the progress of the work.

Here you can see part of the photos and video clips he shared. It demonstrates and inspiring process of goodwill manifesting for preparing a sacred place for the paintings. And through the paintings a place for exchange about art, astrology and wisdom teachings, like the virtual Aquarian Salon meetings.

The earth sign Virgo represents the World Mother and is the sign of purity. A virgin mind is a clean mind which only reflects. The members of the Hierarchy have such a virgin mind, in which the Light of the World Mother is reflected. They can be impressed by the divine Plan and radiate it down on earth. Virgo calls upon us to cultivate purity in food and drink as well as purity in thought, word and deed. Once our mind is free of impurities, the holy child of the Virgin, our soul consciousness, can be born within us.

Picture to the month of Virgo

Virgo stands for the purity and sublimity of virginal nature. The soul can shine through pure matter and let the splendour of its light radiate. It is through the soul that the light of universal consciousness, also known as the World Mother, makes its appearance.

In Eastern wisdom, the light of the soul is also called Buddhi and the soul itself is called Atma, the I AM. The light of Virgo is described as the pure, milky-white light from which the brilliance of the rainbow colours emerges. The interpenetration of creation with universal consciousness is symbolised by the Sri Yantra. It is a symbol of sacred geometry which contains 45 triangles.

In Western astrological symbolism in earlier centuries, Virgo and its supernatural nature were often represented by an angel. Late summer is characterised by Virgo’s golden light, a time when the fruits of nature are harvested.

To illustrate this symbolism, I merged the photo of a fruit-bearing apple tree, where the glow of the white sunlight iridesced into multicoloured rays, with a photo of glowing apples. I superimposed the edited image of a Sri Yantra.

For the angel of the Virgo symbol, I reworked the etching by Jacob de Gheyn II (ca. 1565 -1629) on the constellation of Virgo from Hugo Grotius‘ book ‘Syntagma Arateorum‘ from 1600. The female angel figure now carries in her right hand a lily, symbolising purity, and in her left hand a staff of Hermes/Mercury, symbolising Mercury, the ruler of the sign of Virgo.

Leo is the royal sign that embodies noblesse and dignity and it bestows the power to rule and protect. Many kings chose the lion as their national symbol. Leo is also a sign of initiation; the first step is to rule ourselves and allow others to rule themselves. Symbolically, the lion of the personality must be killed in the cave of the heart so that the Son of God can be born.

Many great teachers like Master EK, Master MN, Master CVV, Madame Blavatsky, Sri Aurobindo and especially Lord Krishna were born in the month of Leo to enlighten humanity and show the way to the kingdom of God.

When many people come together in a joint spiritual alignment, a field builds up as a vessel into which high energies can flow and manifest in this way. Even though individuals may not realise it, this raises the consciousness of all, and there is also a strong impulse into the larger collective consciousness. Such an influx of energy is much greater than is possible for individuals. This field of consciousness is not limited to a time of meditation, but is also expressed in being together and, even more profoundly, in greater co-operation.

In ancient times in the East, sages and their disciples would come together for long periods of meditation, ritual and sharing of wisdom teachings. In modern times, people meet for group livings with a spiritual orientation. They are often brought together by a teacher, but also through the power of collective group action.

In the centre of the picture you can see the influx of energy in both a vertical and horizontal direction, represented by the reflection of sunlight in camera shots. The ray of light begins at the cosmic level and anchors in the physical level. The upper background shows the petals of a lotus flower, a symbol of the unfoldment of consciousness. The power of group inspiration is depicted in the lower half.

For the design of the lower half, I combined elements from three photos of different group livings. In the foreground you can see the scene of a discussion group at the 100th May Call celebration in Switzerland in 2009. For the background, I used a photo of a group life in northern Germany in 2015.

Cancer is the fourth sign of the zodiac. Cancer is the dusk hours of the year and Cancer represents the home and the mother. The Sun in Cancer is said to be at home with itself. The soul finds its rest in the heart. The quality of the heart is love and belonging. It creates warm relationships. At home, in the heart, we can reflect on our life’s purpose and tune into divine intention to enable inner revelation. For the ordinary person, Cancer represents instincts, for advanced humans, intuition.
