10:10 Testament: A friend asked me if I choose the time 10:10 for our Thought-Seed Meditation because it represents the straight line & the curve – the basis of everything…? ‘Wow, I laughed – that never crossed my mind. I hadn’t thought of that – but I guess I didn’t need to since you have’. That’s the beauty of co-creation, we all add to the narrative; we all reveal what the collective spirit wanting to bring – each hearing what speaks to us; & then we can share with each other, so the Thought-Form grows between us.
Perhaps, she explained, that message came to her because she is homeschooling. In the Waldorf education the pedagogy is based on this straight & curved line expression which is seen everywhere in nature.
Another friend said it reminded him of the binary code of 1’s & 0’s…And how we are now writing a new code into the universe!
Yet another mentioned that we have 2 chances to shine together everyday 10:10 am & 10:10 pm, …And so it is…
As we shine out from the Earth, Divine Spiritual Beings take notice, we are seen. We become lightning rods for their protection & power. We become super charged catalysts for change. The light that we generate is eternal – the future flowing into the now.
Fred Janney, co-creator of the Prison Outreach Program of the ASA, a fiery John the Baptist figure, made his uprising across the Threshold around this time last year. Last night I felt his energy strongly with us in that light.
Then the thought came: What can we do to lay a foundation of truth, justice & beauty into the world – to co-create with the so-called dead – a health bearing, life affirming cradle for the new souls that must come in as Spiritual Warriors?
What are your thoughts dear friends on our growing egregore – born 1 year ago…?

13 November 2021 – “Speaking with the Stars”: This month’s Leonid meteor shower peaks the 17th — which, unfortunately, closely coincides with the Full Moon (which will be partially eclipsed) That makes this week your best bet at spotting shower meteors. This morning offers several hours of darkness, as Bella Luna sets. The Leonids’ radiant near Adhafera in Leo the Lion is highest closer to sunrise, so try stepping outside a few hours before dawn to catch it at its best. It’s a great time to enjoy the early-morning autumn sky, which contains not only Leo but also Cancer, Orion, Gemini, Taurus and Perseus. There’s a plethora of familiar constellations and easy-to-find deep-sky beings including the Pleiades, the Crab Nebula, the Orion Nebula, and the Perseus Double Cluster.

Hi Hazel,
This lecture below explains a great detail concerning 1010 from an evolutionary standpoint. It also explains how the 11 year cycles of sun spots, which had progressively caused diminishment of the Sun since the Christ Event, by the 9th century had given the incentive to the several planetary intelligences to split off from Michael in the Sun. This is the actual basis of the 8th Ecumenical Council of 869. We find out here what Michael determines to do on behalf of the human race. Steiner would go on to more fully elaborate this process in the Michael Mystery, GA 26, beginning on August 17, 1924, when he was in England for the last time.
Lecture XI:
Evolution of the Michael Principle Throughout the Ages. The Split in the Cosmic Intelligence
“Battle waged by the Schoolmen of the Dominican Order to maintain and uphold the personal immortality of man. Averroes declared a heretic. To-day we have to say: “In the sense in which man has become immortal, as to his Spiritual Soul, he has indeed attained immortality — the continued consciousness of personality after passing through the gate of death — but he has attained this only since the time when a Spiritual Soul took up its abode in earthly man.” The Sun-Intelligence of Michael and the Planetary Intelligences. In the 9th century A.D., with the descent of the Cosmic Intelligence into men, the Sun-Intelligence of Michael and the Planetary Intelligences gradually came into cosmic opposition one with another. In the Ecumenical Council of 869 A.D. the signal was given for an overwhelming event in the spiritual world above: a split among the Angels who guide human souls, leading to disorder in the karma of men. This is the chaotic element in the history of recent times. With the penetration of Michael to earthly rulership, Michael brings the power which is to bring order again into the karma of those who have gone with him. The restoration of the truth in karma. The mission of Anthroposophy.”

Yes, this is why it is so important to understand Steiner’s core mission of karma & reincarnation
