The Adventure of Advent Begins… The Latin gives us ‘adventus’ = ‘a coming; an important arrival’ AND intriguing to follow the even earlier translation of Advent from the Greek: ‘Parousia’ – which for me literally means ‘the incoming presence of essence - the ‘Second Coming’; not physically this time, but present in the ethers for everyone, as an essence, in the aura of the Earth. Advent is a 4-week anticipation - a preparation - for the Becoming of Christos, from three different perspectives: The physical Nativity in Bethlehem; the birth of Christ as the Being of Love in the human heart; & the Messianic revealing. Advent is a prelude - a time to waken to the spiritual dynamics leading up to the sacred birth of the Light - out-pictured thru the immaculate soul spoken about in the Gospel of Luke. Advent is the Initiatory Prologue which prepares the human heart for the procession thru the 12 Days of Christmas - the 13 Holy Nights - culminating in the incarnation of the Cosmic Christ on Epiphany, 6 January – the last constellation of Christmas-tide -Joan of Arc’s Birthday. Yes, dear friends, if you choose to accept this mission, Advent is a powerful window – a first step - a Threshold - a means of resonating with the Divine realms, of which the human being has a part. The task of Advent is to take on the experience of a conscious training – with the goal of meeting the spiritual forces which come thru at this ‘Dark Before the Dawn’ time of year. On each of the 4 Sun Days of Advent, week by week, we take on a trial of the elements, fire, water, air where we are stripped of direct Celestial Support - the Angels step back - so that we can stand up - Upright on the Earth - as true human beings out of our own initiative, proving that we are worthy & consciously willing to receive Divine Inspirations in Freedom & Love, for the Good of All. For many of us striving souls, this can be a difficult time of year, a dark time, when we feel alone in the face of what seems like unsurmountable challenges, in & around us. Discombobulated - Overwhelmed by the literally earthshaking state of world affairs - throwing us into denial, complacency, overindulgence …. & of course, the matrix is set up to distract us from this hard task of Knowing Thyself. This first week brings in an opportunity to pay homage to the mineral realm that supports us- Perhaps tap into issues relating to physical health. Our task is to rise to the challenge this week, by cultivating an eye toward Impartial Justice. To keep in heart & mind the truth of the fact that even though the spiritual realm steps back so that we can stand on our own 2 feet - Justice - as karmic unfolding - is ultimately working in this Cosmic evolution that we are part of. It is a week of Trial by Fire, which if engaged with consciously, can be the catalyst for the burning away of all the dross that hinders our soul from its true mission of becoming gold.
