Capricorn – The Birth of the Devas and the Seed of the Plan
Image of the Month of Capricorn In Eastern wisdom, devas are non-human, spiritual ethereal entities, also called "the shining ones". They are like angels and compose a vast cosmic hierarchy that rules and guides evolution. They are great intelligences. In the west, devas are of the angelic realm. The birth of the Saviour is celebrated at the winter solstice in Capricorn at dawn. This time also symbolises the birth of the Devas. Devas prepare the creation into which humankind will only enter much later. At the dawn of Capricorn, Sanat Kumara, the Lord of Shambala, sows the seeds of the Plan amongst the Deva intelligences on the subtle planes. Hence, for humanity, the dawn of the year is also the most auspicious time to sow the seeds for the coming new year. The Hierarchy makes contact with…
Sagittarius - Purifying and Uplifting the Earth
Image of the Month of Sagittarius On the spiritual path, we strive for purity in order to express the radiant light of the soul. The Earth, too, strives to purify itself, yet through its ignorance, humanity works against the Earth’s plan ceaselessly and systematically. Together with Shambhala, the Masters of Wisdom are doing their utmost to persuade people to keep the Earth clean and to put a stop to the deteriorating living conditions. People often do not realise that they are the cause of this deterioration. Humanity’s unlawful and immoral practices have severely polluted matter, water and air. Their behaviour contributes to the spread of epidemics and disasters. For Shambala, natural disasters and even massive wars are means of course correction, designed to purify and uplift the…

Scorpio - Breaking Free from Old Structures and Forms
Image of the Month of Scorpio In order to embrace something new, we must let go of something else. We cannot hold on to more than is possible. We have to give up certain activities to gain better things. In keeping with the changing times, we will evolve into a global spirit, in which our values, too, are global. If we wish to rise to a spirit, we cannot hold only local values. The Aquarian Age brings in global values, and God will be experienced as energy beyond form and name. Many communities are trying to cling to their local values and impose them upon a global platform. Let us not fall back into the past. Such attempts will be crushed by Shambala. For the composition of the image, I used a photo taken by my brother, Winfried Philips, of the medieval monastery ruins of Beauly Priory…
Libra – Planetary Balance and Adjustments
Image of the Month of Libra Whenever humanity uses its will too much for selfish ends instead of for the universal good, Shambala strives hard to arrest the deteriorating conditions. For this, Shambala works generally through the Hierarchy of the Masters. The Hierarchy subtly introduces the energy of Shambala - Ray 1, the Will to Good - into humanity causing the needed changes at a global level. Whenever a particular nation or group is gaining excessive power, the members of Shambala ensure counter balance and thus balance the energies. Shambala ensures that neither the West nor the East gain supremacy to the detriment of the other. Shambala allows wars to happen in order to regulate and arrest distortions to the human mind. Shambala also sees sicknesses and natural calamities as means…
