The horse is a profound spiritual symbol carrying various dimensions. This week, I did a video presentation about this symbolism of the horse. It was the topic of last month’s Lunar Messenger for Sagittarius (PDF), the text is also here on the WTT website.

The video was done with a layout developed for the Friends of the World Teacher Trust, and it was also published on the Friends of WTT YouTube channel. You can download the paintings used in the video on my website ludgerphilips.org. There is also a German and a French version of the video.

Today 111 years ago, Master CVV initiated the annual December Call celebrations. He established two annual celebrations as days for group initiation – the “Master May Call Day” on 29 May 1910, and the “Master December Call Day” on 29 December 1910. These gatherings are meant for lifting up those who align to it to the awareness of the energy of synthesis, also called the Avatar of Synthesis. The December Call is to strengthen the inner light so that we eliminate the undesirable in us, strengthen the seeds and eliminate the weeds. This leads to an expansion of consciousness and the related deeper understanding.

The energy of synthesis is much better expressed when we relate to the Master energy in a groupal manner. The impact has become global, and now the December Call is also celebrated at many places all over the globe. We just have group meetings where the presence of the energy is clearly felt. This group linking through virtual global meetings is speeding up the development, in all facets of life a spiritual value is added, while outwardly we are going through very peculiar times – times of profound transformation.

Capricorn, tenth sign of the zodiac, is called “the mountain”. It is the mountain of initiation, a symbol of the spiritual quest of the personality to unite with the light of the soul. After climbing to the peak and absorbing the “light supernal”, the initiate returns to assist those who are captive in matter. Capricorn represents the dawn of the year. The golden rays of the morning sun, the winter solstice sun, pour forth a spiritual light and activity that help the souls free themselves from matter and rise up again.

The energy of Capricorn supports the development of the golden etheric body and also the diamond causal body. In mythology they are represented as golden and diamond dragons. Since ancient times, high beings have lived on earth called Nagas in spiritual wisdom. They are sacred serpents or dragons holding the light of wisdom. Like serpents, they live in hidden caves in the mountain regions. The Nagas can be regarded as embodiments of the Kundalini energy. They are the ascending serpents and are radiant and divine by nature. The descending serpents are represented as black and are poisonous by nature. The Nagas do a lot of good for humanity. Some of them are also said to be able to fly.

For the illustration of the Dragon of Wisdom, I photographed a dragon statue in a Tai Chi centre in Hamburg. The mountain in the background was designed with a photograph of Aconcagua, the highest mountain in the Andes, which a pilot friend, flying over, had photographed. The essence of wisdom streaming down from the sun enters and illuminates the dragon. In his hand he holds a golden glowing orb, symbol of the gift of wisdom for humanity.

The symbolism of Capricorn is visualised in the twelve Capricorn paintings done between 2010 and 2021. For detailed detailed descriptions please see the ludgerphilips.org website.

The wisdom teachings explain that there is no end to existence. There is a cyclical movement of time in creation. It is like the growth of a seed to a tree bringing forth again new seeds. So, from the background of space, there are periodic emanations of creation. They are seen as cosmic pulsations.

With seven such pulsations, the creation descends and ascends again. From innermost realms, creation comes down to objectivity; and after a while, the direction is changed and there is again an ascent via subtle and causal states to the absolute state.

Our earth is part of a chain of seven globes. There are earths in preparation in three preceding states, we are on this present earth in the fourth state, and there are earths in recession in three succeeding states. Therefore, when a physical form is dissolved, it does not end but continues to exist on subtler planes.

You find these great time cycles in the Eastern wisdom teachings as yugas, manvantaras, kalpas, and years of Brahma, the creator. And you find many details in the teachings of Helena P. Blavatsky. As per human evolution, see also the book of Master KPK on “The Seven Waves of Life“.

You can easily feel dizzy in view of such incredible magnitudes of time pulsations. I depicted a small part of this grand cosmic pulsation in some of my paintings, see for example here and here.

I recently came into contact on Facebook with Elena Merlits, a theosophist from Kiev. I was fascinated to see how Elena was visualising teachings from the Secret Doctrine of HPB about the great time cycles like globe chains, rounds and root races. In her graphics, she worked out aspects of these cycles in great detail and also diagrams about cosmic planes of consciousness.

She is also illustrating other spiritual realities. I give here, without comments, some of her graphics – you can also just contemplate on them without understanding the details.

She also does black and white artwork inspired by inner dimensions – the last picture is from these series. The picture are in a bigger on Facebook (and in a closed FB group in Russian languages to which she gave me access – luckily, there exists automatic translation.)

I started arranging some texts of the Lunar Messenger as video presentations. Here is the latest video on “Sleep and Turiya”.

You know what sleep is – or at least you think you know. However, we are not aware when we are sleeping, so we don’t really know it. At the transition from wakefulness to sleep or vice versa, we pass a threshold that separates both states.

The wisdom teachings emphasize the importance of remembering this point. At this moment, we experience the original state of consciousness and life. It is also called Turiya in Sanskrit, meaning the 4th – the 4th state of consciousness besides waking, sleep and dream states. The new video explains more about it.

There is a new YouTube channel for “Friends of World Teacher Trust”, https://friends.wtt-global.org. It is a platform where people who feel related to the WTT can communicate and teach the essential wisdom teachings of the WTT coming from Master CVV, Master EK and Master KPK. The idea behind: to welcome people who relate to World Teacher Trust teachings and would also like to teach to friends, relatives and like-minded persons.

So, I publish my new videos there, also in German and French.

We are going into the hours of Sagittarius full moon. This full moon is celebrated in the East as the birthday of Lord Dattatreya. Dattatreya is the great teacher or guru principle in the universe. The teachers on the different planes are manifestations of the one teaching principle. A profound wisdom.

You can find more information about Lord Dattatreya on the Sripada Srivallabha website of WTT.

Sagittarius is called a house of initiation, but every initiation is preceded by a crisis. Therefore Sagittarius is also the house of crises. The seers always present things in their positive dimension and so they speak of an opportunity for initiation. We should not run away from crises, but face them courageously. In Sagittarius they are fiery crises because Sagittarius is a fire sign. The fiery crisis we face can give us a push to continue on the path of light.

The symbolism of Sagittarius is visualised in the twelve Sagittarius paintings done between 2010 and 2021. For detailed detailed descriptions please see the ludgerphilips.org website.

From a spiritual point of view, the sun of our solar system is a threefold principle. The visible sun is only the focal point for the action of a greater sun called the central sun or the soul of the sun. And the cosmic sun is the spirit aspect of the solar principle. This cosmic or spiritual sun is invisible and incomprehensible to us. The central sun, around which our sun moves, corresponds to the human soul. The physical body of the sun corresponds to our physical body. Everything is threefold in its manifestation.

The physical sun has its correspondence in our heart centre. The soul of the sun has its seat in the Ajna centre on the middle of the forehead, and the cosmic sun is located in the head centre, the Sahasrara. In the Gayatri mantram, the three planes of the sun are called Surya, Savitru and Bhargo Deva. The cosmic plane of the sun is Bhargo Deva. Savitru, the central sun, receives the light of the soul from the cosmic sun and gives it to Surya. Through Surya, the visible sun, the earth receives its light and we receive the light in our hearts. Thus, we have the cosmic, solar and planetary systems embedded in us.

For the human silhouette in the centre of the image, I edited a photo of the writer. I designed the background with a photo of a sunrise and elements of a NASA photo of a star nebula. The sun in the heart was created with photos of the sun. The electric blue light of the sun in the Ajna centre leads beyond the shape of the body. The radiant centre at the top of the image suggests the formless, invisible cosmic sun.

The luminous central line merges into the light as individual consciousness gradually unites with universal consciousness. The semicircles in the lower part of the picture symbolize the different density levels from space to earth.

The symbolism of Sagittarius is visualised in the twelve Sagittarius paintings done between 2010 and 2021. For detailed detailed descriptions please see the ludgerphilips.org website.

Together with international cooperation, the WTT Spain brotherhood prepared a beautiful video on “Healing Prayer” in 4 languages.
The video was given to Master Kumar with much love for his birthday on 7 November.

Here is the text of the Healing Prayer:

Let us form the Circle of Planetary Healers.

Let the Chief Life descend and penetrate.

Let Merry Life preside over and function.

Let Healing happen at all levels.

Let mineral, plant, animal and

Human be Healed and Harmonised.

May the Angels cooperate

And fulfill the plan of Healers upon Earth.

When working on the video presentation on “Creativity and Originality“, a friend gave some help. He showed me how to do the recording on my PC. Thus, I realise the French version as well. I learnt a bit about doing video presentations. So, the idea came to realise the text of the Lunar Messenger Libra 2021 on “Symbolism 7 – The Eagle” as a video, using some of my paintings as illustrations.

And when the English version was ready, a German and a French version followed 🙂 A Spanish version was beyond the scope of my language skills or of knowing friends who could do it…

However, I saw that it is a good way to bring thoughts from the teachings of eternal wisdom into another format – as an inspiration to put them into practice. I need to see in the next weeks how much time remains for continuing such work myself…

I didn’t want to publish them on my YouTube account – since we are working on creating the framework for “Friends of the World Teacher Trust“, a new YouTube channel came about.
