THE MAY ALIGNMENT: SEVEN PLANETS IN TAURUS

"Dearly beloved children of the light, as you know we are called Gabriel and as always we are most joyous to be in your divine presence. We are here to speak to you about an important planetary configuration that will happen in May. This configuration marks an important event in the unfoldment of planetary Ascension that you are now experiencing. For the last two thousand years you have been in the Age of Pisces. During that time you have been in a state of the Cocooning of the Soul, while the personality was being developed. This involved the specific development of the mental and emotional bodies, preparing you for the stage you now enter. This time and particular planetary alignment represents the central focal point of the unveiling of that cocoon - to reveal the soul in the Age of Aquarius.

Aquarius represents the "I know" feeling, intuition and wisdom coming together in a spiritual rebirth. The planetary configuration of which we speak involves seven planets aligning in the sign of Taurus. That concerns you a great deal, because those seven planets represent the Seven Spirits before the Throne of God, spoken of your Book of Revelations. These seven planets also represent the seven initiations of Ascension or ensoulment coming together. These planets involve the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Mars and Jupiter. They will all be influenced by Taurus. Taurus is the sign of the bull, Earth and man, also affecting all material structure and values. Therefore, this alignment will directly affect all of you, as well as your structures and values. It also rules the areas of the body known as the throat and the cerebellum (the part of the brain near the occipital lobe). This connects its energy to issues of the subconscious, which is the doorway to the soul self. This will allow you to begin to integrate deeper levels of soul values.

So as these planets enter Taurus, they will create their influences on Taurus and therefore upon the value system of matter (Earth and man). As these planets gather in Taurus (peaking on May 5), their influencing energies will pour into the Earth plane. After the alignment is complete and the planets move out of configuration, the doorway will close and the energies will be trapped into the Earth plane. You will then begin to assimilate these energies directly throughout the year 2001. As stated earlier, these planets represent the influence of the seven initiations. (Much information available on this web site concerning the initiations.)

So let us look at the specifics of these energies... The first of these planetary bodies is the Sun. It is connected to the first initiation, the Birth. The Sun is a radiatory force that influences the will and individuality. In this case it encourages the individual will into the birth of the soul's value system. This will open you all to more potential creativity and new life. The circle of the Sun represents the eternal self, which is to be found in the center of each of your cells. There is a spark of life in the center of those cells. The influence of the Sun in Taurus will also serve to awaken the Central Sun (soul light) within each one of you. You can expect a lot of energy movement down to a cellular level within your bodies, further accelerated by this alignment. This will happen as the soul blueprints are awakened down to a cellular level, connected to the Divine Plan for your Earth. The Sun, a male or assertive energy, also rules the heart and spine. It carries the constitutional strength of the Universe.

The second planet is the Moon, which is connected to the second initiation, the Baptism. This symbol is connected to the development of your personalities, through the emotional tides of that personality. The moon is a magnetic force. It deals with your attachment to matter through the perspectives of the personality. It is a feminine, receptive force that is intended to lead you to the highest levels of development of your personalities. The moon rules the stomach and the breasts. It is also connected to the love force of the personality and governs all of the glamours of the lower self. As it enters this configuration, it will begin to shake up all of your attachments to the physical as the source of your fulfillment. It will also shake up those fragile value systems, helping you to release your glamours through the dis-illusionment of the physical.

The third planet is Mercury, which connects to the Transfiguration on the Mount initiation. Mercury acts as the mind link, connecting the superconscious, the subconscious and the conscious minds. Another way to say the same thing is that it connects the intention of your Oversouls to your individual soul fragment (your soul in this lifetime) to your conscious experience in the physical. This is vital so that the Higher Will (Higher Self) can begin to be impressed upon your lower wills. This is the beginning of the process of joining the higher and lower selves. This is reinforced by looking at the ancient symbols for Mercury: the cross, the crescent or cup and the circle. The cross is connected to Earth, manifestation and the physical. The circle is connected to the wholeness of the soul. Finally, the crescent is representative of the uplifted personality through Spirit. This connects you to the Opening of the Holy Grail through the joining of the physical to soul to Spirit. It will introduce the joining of the inner and the outer worlds. Mercury in Taurus will also help to balance the emotional flow (moon) with higher mind, introducing you to deeper levels of your intuition and wisdom. It will also begin to truly break up the illusions, glamours and attachments of the mental body. Mercury rules the lungs, the nervous system, the shoulders, arms and hands.

The fourth initiation is connected with Venus and the Renunciation initiation. This is the process where the lower will is overcome by the force of LOVE. Love is the force that penetrates and reveals the truth of each of you. This is the initiation when the soul energies begin to become experiential. This will happen through the erotic force, which is the desire for life. This initiation took place with the one Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane. This is when the lower will begins to yield to the higher will - 'Not my will, but Thine.' As you begin to move out of the will of the ego defense, you take responsibility for yourselves in a deeper way. This is how you heal your karma through love. You will also find yourselves releasing your attachments to the world as the source of your fulfillment and sense of self. The kundalini rises and breaks through into the conscious mind (in the heart) through love. This will allow more inner meaning and value to reveal itself in your lives. This happens as you open to the intention and motivation of the soul. This creates a process of perfecting the personality, so that it can be used as a vehicle to express the soul.

We now move into the influence of Saturn and the Crucifixion initiation. Saturn represents the joining of the inner and the outer, as reflected by its two rings. The inner ring stands for the essence of soul, while the outer ring represents matter. Saturn maintains the energy of contraction and governs your ego force. The shell of the ego is represented by the outer ring, which holds sacred the soul blueprint (the core of Saturn). This is just like your ego structures holding your soul blueprints sacred in the subconscious mind. In this way it governs the development of the soul, but in the subconscious. This has served you to prepare for the soul rising, but has kept it separate from your physical conscious mind. Now in this alignment, Saturn will begin to reveal the soul blueprint that is at the core - by breaking down the outer layer or crust of the ego. This is experience of the Crucifixion. This will be the time when matter will get wiped out as the source. All old forms that are still held in duality will begin to break down like never before as this alignment takes place. This will happen as the radiatory force of the soul begins to shine forth. Another benefit of this process is a deeper return of your Oversoul memory (the memory of all of your lifetimes), as well as a deeper relationship of your dream state through the subconscious mind.

We then move into the influence of Mars and the energies of the Cocooning and Resurrection initiation. Most people think of Mars as the energy of male dominance, anger and war. It is all of that, but it is also the energy of renewal, redemption and the vitality of life from its core - fully releasing the coiled serpent. This will result in the unleashing of passion for the renewed life (life ruled by the soul). This will open you all to the courage that is necessary to create and carry out your new life paradigms. This will be a surge of the creative force in your lives. As Mars is the energy of fire, it is the energy of destruction. But it is the energy of recreation as well. In the Age of Pisces, these energies revealed war, domination and control of a patriarchal world system. As you move into Aquarius it will be an energy to break down old systems, while it reveals passion and compassion. Its fire will consume the last attachments to form/matter as the source of your fulfillment. This will open you further to the passion of soul and Spirit. This energy is connected to both the erotic force (the desire for life) and the sexual force (fusion with life). Mars will then bring the Divine Plan of soul and Spirit into matter, as it is connected to the first and sixth chakras. This renewal of all form as a God expression will allow you to experience a new heaven on earth.

Finally we move to the influence of Jupiter and the Ascension initiation. This is the planet that holds the codes of the Divine Plan, as well as the connection to the Ascended Mastery. Its influence in Taurus will bring the Divine Plan into matter in the physical experience of Earth. This will reveal the higher ego and the perfected personality of the true individual. This will allow you to know yourselves as creators in your lives. Jupiter eradicates all forms, systems of education/learning and government that are not in alignment with the initiation process. This will cause great shake ups in your world, as the old continues to fall away to create a space and a necessity for the new world. Jupiter also represents the energies of the risen Christ in manifestation, experience and form. So these seven planets in alignment are a blueprint of energy that contains the balanced system of all of the planetary initiations of Ascension in one unit. That alignment will bring those initiations deeper into the experience of matter and all of you. It will create a basic realignment of the entire value system of the material world. Don't be surprised if you begin to hear lots of talk about VALUES around the world. It will also bring you into a deeper time of destructuring and restructuring. This will create things such as great shifts and apparent break downs of things such as the stock market (which began to happen two weeks after this lecture was given). There will be a lot of rising and falling. There may also be greater activity with radical groups taking their last stand. An example of this took place last week with the cult group in Uganda. They revealed hundreds of people who had been killed. In actuality there are several thousand, though they have not found the rest of the graves at this point. So remember that this time of preparation is vital for all of you. Things will continue to heat up in the kitchen. This will bring tremendous growth and reward for those who are clearing their issues and preparing the physical, mental and emotional bodies for the rising of the soul. So we wish you happy integrating... As always we remind you, as you are able remember to love one another."
