“When the dates approach,
the work of creativeness may be entered upon.”
(Infinity I §151)
The stars show the path of the Heart in preparation for the Leo-Sirius Full Moon on 29 July 2026, the path that passes through the opening of the Door of the Heart.
Let us look at some important milestones during these 24 days of preparation for the full moon (see the Astrological Charts in the 2026 Solar Rituality and Ephemerides):
5 July 2026. Uranus (7th Ray) in Gemini (2nd Ray) is in conjunction with the Muse/Asteroid Urania; the path of service is the path of Love, the path of the Heart; it signifies our readiness to respond to the Heart’s command; it stimulates the petal of love on the mental plane*; it is our service to the celestial vision.
“There is much fire. The far-off luminaries are aglow,
and one can see them in the fire of the heart.
Verily, there is much tension.”
(Brotherhood § 239)
6 July 2026. The Earth (3rd Ray) in Capricorn (1st, 3rd and 7th Rays), conjunct Mnemosyne, the goddess of Memory, is the Mistress of the Heart-Mind, of the Soul, who remembers and is able to recall the World of Fire, of Ideas, bringing to mind the initiatory light that opens the doors of consciousness. With the help of Saturn, both exoteric and esoteric ruler of Capricorn, who stimulates the transcendent note of the 3rd Ray, the project must be accomplished; there must be no hesitation or giving up. This conjunction is in opposition to the Muse/Asteroid Clio in Cancer, stimulating the petal of knowledge on the astral plane, which gives us awareness of the true causes that lead to building the house of brotherhood through cooperation. The door is open to those who wish to pass through it; it is a heroic act, undertaken to build the common Good.
“Brotherhood or cooperation?
It is impossible to define a sharp boundary between them.
Whereas, people are desirous that concepts be quite sharply divided.
But much flows into each concept from other concepts.
Thus, cooperation will be, as it were, the threshold to Brotherhood;
therefore, one must guard the approaches to the Stronghold of the Spirit.”
(Brotherhood § 99)
8 July 2026. The Earth (3rd Ray) in Capricorn (1st, 3rd and 7th Rays), conjunct Melpomene, she who sings, who represents the petal of sacrifice for the astral plane, signifies the responsible renunciation of personal motives in order to serve the common Good; it manifests Love and Sacrifice. Sacrifice for the good of all becomes possible; it is up to us to embrace and manifest the heart, so that we may become One with the Hierarchy.
“If the surpassing feeling of Brotherhood
is difficult in the earthly condition,
nevertheless Brotherhood is entirely accessible to each aspiring mind.
There is no need to make something complicated of it,
if you are able to wish for your neighbor
nothing that you do not wish for yourself.
Thus, every day, in every task, in every thought,
one may be affirmed in the realization of Brotherhood.”
(Brotherhood § 110)
10 July 2026. Venus (5th Ray) is in conjunction with Terpsichore in Scorpio (4th Ray); our group consciousness must be brought into our daily experience, so that the renewal of this marvellous dance may provide the impetus to overcome the trials that life places in our path. In support of this, this conjunction forms a marvellous Pythagorean triangle with Mercury, Earth, Mnemosyne and Melpomene in Capricorn and Mars in Taurus, giving us the incentive to find the balance and harmony, persevering in our work towards the Common Good.
“Yet the sown seeds of good will not dry up,
and in the ordained days the seeds will flourish.”
(Brotherhood § 190)
16 July 2026. Uranus (7th Ray) is in conjunction with Calliope, stimulating the petal of sacrifice on the mental plane; the thought-form of Love (Gemini, 2nd Ray) pulsates with Will (conjunction in the first quality – first 5 degrees – of Gemini), thought and speech transmit the fire (sextile to Neptune and Saturn in Aries), the idea of Hierarchy descends into the Group – the Planetary Server – and the fire burns away whatever obstructs and blocks the way. Unitarity and Revival (trine to Mercury and Pluto in Aquarius) are sounding in Space the note of Brotherhood, the seed of Hierarchical recognition.
“We know about the inviolability of thought,
but apparently transmutation of it is taking place,
and one needs to know into what the thought is being transmuted.
It flows into pure fire. A beautiful circle results.
From the fire arises energy—a creative thought—
and through the earthly furnace this thought is again united with fire.
The circle is closed, and renewed energy
ascends regenerated for new labor.”
(Brotherhood § 378)
20 July 2026. Uranus (7th Ray) is in conjunction with Euterpe, stimulating the petal of sacrifice on the physical plane, opposite Venus in Scorpio; the sound must be perceived and diffused as a single, harmonious note, so that humanity may perceive and experience Beauty. May all noise cease and may sound fill the space. Sometimes a single harmony will awaken forever a sense of the beautiful.
“The sound of words should be beautiful,
such harmony also produces exalted thinking.”
(Brotherhood § 394)
27 July 2026. The Earth (3rd Ray) is in conjunction with Pluto (1st Ray) in Aquarius (5th Ray), opposite Jupiter (2nd Ray) in Leo and trine Uranus (7th Ray) in Gemini (2nd Ray); the Rebirth lays its foundations on the Leo–Aquarius axis: the centrality of the Heart points the way to Brotherhood. Cosmically, Leo is ruled by Sirius, whose virtues or three influences are concentrated in Regulus, the star known as the ‘heart of the Lion’. Its influences reach the centre of the planetary Heart (the Hierarchy) via the 2nd-Ray planet Jupiter (which is currently in Leo). The impulse is powerful; preparations for the Full Moon are at their height; the stimulation of the petals of the egoic Lotus of Humanity is continuous and the Law of Cohesion (2nd Ray – the Full Moon is in the second quality of Leo) exerts its magnetic dominion, which is the capacity to express Love.
“The embryo of enthusiasm grows into a beautiful inspiration.
A drop of goodness is transformed into effective good.
A grain of love grows into a beautiful garden.”
(Brotherhood § 220)
29 July 2026. Leo-Sirius Full Moon: all that remains is Silence!
