This is much longer than
my usual posting but I felt that you would find the entire piece interesting in
light of last year's ending of the Mayan calendar. Mr. LePar's spiritual
source, The Council answers a question about an event that was considered by
many people to be as significant as the Mayan ending last year. Those of you
familiar with astrology will recognize what is being discussed but I believe we
can all learn from what The Council says about situations of this nature. On
the surface it appears that not much happened but perhaps that is not entirely
true! Notice in particular the analogy of making bread. It is very difficult
for the finite mind of man to grasp the infinite. Using analogies is the method
that The Council uses to teach us.
Questioner: What is the significance of the event that happens on
August 23, 1987? There is going to be a rare alignment of planets in the sign
of Leo which takes us into Virgo. At that time the sun, the moon, Mercury,
Venus, and Mars will all be in those two signs, so what can we expect? What
does this mean? Is this the start of the Aquarian Age? Is it the ending of old
cultures and beliefs?
The Council:
Well, we do not wish to get into astrology, but we can answer the question
sufficiently, if you are willing to listen closely to what we say. No one
should doubt the influence of the heavenly bodies. It is, how shall we put it,
almost proven, at least proven by those who are more advanced thinkers in the
scientific field. Those who are still in the medieval age, of course, will
never see beyond their nose, but setting that aside for now. Whenever you have
unusual alignments, you have increased influences in all of creation. Now, for
us to say that something dramatic will transpire on a particular date would be
foolish on our part, because what will transpire most of the world will not
sense or see or feel because before anything manifests in the physical plane,
it must have been created and formed in a higher plane. The additional
influences or unnatural or unusual influences by particular alignments add a
stimulus to the level of formation or that level where all thought, whether
they be prayerful thought or just meditative thought, mesh with the forces of
creation and each individual's output, mentally and prayerfully. There in that
level it is similar to the making of dough or bread dough. All the ingredients
are placed in a large container. They are mixed, kneaded together, allowed to
rise, kneaded again, allowed to rise, kneaded again, and ready for the heat of
the furnace or the oven, which is the proving of the efforts and the
ingredients. What lies in store for mankind is solely created by their
concepts, and their physical concepts or standards are a direct reflection of
their true status as a spiritual creation. At one time we said you could judge
what level you are, now this is at a soul level, by your character. In that
particular time slot that you referred to (August 23, 1987) additional
influences will be added to the level of formation. It is not a situation where
at one minute the influences or the energies are turned off and a few minutes
later or a few days later they are switched on again. It is not an on and off
situation. What you have is a gradual buildup of this energy and then a gradual
waning of that energy, yet that energy has acted as the yeast in the bread
dough.
What will
transpire will be determined directly by what has come before and what will
come after. In other words, what is created and ready to ... descend to the
physical manifestation can be modified and changed according to the moment by
moment change of the entire influences of creation. The biggest input to those
influences are all of you as soul entities, or soul beings. So, if man has
created a dark future, it will come, but it can be modified on a moment by
moment situation or state of existence according to how man changes his outlook
for the future. That, of course, is done by the way he changes his lifestyle.
Why do certain calendars end? We could say that those who have created the
calendars or who have been responsible for the calendars had to have some time
to stop, some place in creation the future projections had to stop. What better
place than at some unusual situation? That is what we could say. Possibly,
something to think about is it is a doorway. Possibly, the wisdom of years gone
by or centuries gone by or times gone by have been utilized to project man's
outlook into the future only up to a certain point, and hopefully by doing so
man has raised his conscious level, his spiritual insight, his spiritual
outlook, so that by the time one reaches that doorway he has created for
himself a whole new world or a whole new heaven or a whole new state of existence.
For some people, a life of great prosperity will start, and we are speaking
"prosperity" in the sense spiritual prosperity and emotional
prosperity. For others, nothing will change; everything will stay the same. And
yet for others, it will be the beginning of a downhill slide. Although all of
the future is created by the combination or the combined efforts of all who are
existing in the physical manifestation, you as individuals create your own
future and your own state of existence within the framework of that great state
of existence. We have attempted to instigate in each of you a positive outlook
for yourself and for mankind, yet at the same time we have laced that attitude
with a bleak picture that may exist for your futures. This was done so that it
would act as a stimulus to be more constructive, more determined, to make the
day that you all deserve, and that is a day of blue skies and bright sun. Some
have been very successful. Some, we would say, could be classified as marginal.
Others have only been superficial in their efforts and their rewards will be
superficial. The old wise men were truly wise. They tried to push man into the
future with a glimmer of hope and then bring him to a doorway that must be
crossed through, leaving the other side to his imagination and thusly to his
powers of creation.
