Capricorn – Correspondences
Image of the Month of Capricorn There are correspondences between the properties of the Earth and the properties of our bodily tissues. The North Pole of the Earth corresponds to our head centre, the South Pole corresponds to the base centre at the coccyx, and the Earth's axis of rotation corresponds to our vertebral column. The heart centre is located in the geometric centre of the Earth. The intelligences working within us are related to the planetary intelligences. The guiding intelligence of the Earth's head centre is called Sanat Kumara, and it is connected to our head centre. The guiding intelligence of the Earth's heart centre is Lord Maitreya, and it works with a group of intelligences through our heart centre. The higher heart centre in the upper part of our chest is connected to…
Sagittarius – The Planetary Lighthouse
Image of the Month of Sagittarius In the wisdom teachings, the lighthouse is a symbol of the state in which a person has transformed their personality. They are filled with the light of the soul and thus promote goodwill everywhere. They do not speak about themselves and instead, redirect any adoration of themselves to the ONE divine energy. In this way, they clear the way for the light that flows through them. The Masters of Wisdom are great lighthouses and guiding stars for people who walk the pathway of Light. We grow by invoking the light and making it visible through acts of goodwill. Shambala is the reception centre on Earth for energies from higher circles, which are distributed for the well-being of the earth and he kingdoms. Through our connection with Shambala, we are able to…
Scorpio - The Inverted Cone
Image of the Month of Scorpio Scorpio represents the descent of spirit into matter. It is compared to the form of an inverted cone or a spiral path where the windings become smaller and smaller. Matter signifies the relative absence of spirit-consciousness. It is described as the spiritual death or a bottomless pit in which we can fall when we are disconnected with the thread of Light. For the soul, it is a situation of spiritual ignorance and the related suffering. When we reverse our direction and consciously re-link to the thread of Light, the cone becomes wider and the path becomes white and radiant. The soul experiences liberation from the bondage of matter and joy. There are guides who are firmly linked to the Light helping us on the way up. And at a later stage, we will become such…
Libra – The Set of the Sails
Image of the Month of Libra I was pondering on the next image of Libra and reading in the book “Spiritual Personality Development” by Master EK. I came across a quote from the poem “The Winds of Fate” by the American poetess Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1850 – 1919) written at the age of 15. It says, “One ship sails East, And another West, By the self-same winds that blow, ‘Tis the set of the sails And not the gales, That tells the way we go.” It further goes on, “‘Tis the set of the soul that decides its goal And not the calm or the strife.” Master EK explains that the angle of the sail we set is called reasoning (thinking logically and not as an emotional reaction). And as wind is more universal than our ship, the direction of creation and the planetary evolution are greater and more universal…
Virgo – The Dark Mother and the Dark Son
Image of the Month of Virgo The World Mother is described as the Mother of Light and the Mother of Night. She presides over the interplay of spirit and matter and engages in the activity of creation. The Father stands as her background and provides support in her activities. Experiencing the Father is beyond consciousness. The Veda says that the Father is reborn as Son through the Mother. The birth can happen in two ways: The descent of the Divine into a human form is called the principle of the avatar. A human being, a “son of man”, can also become a “Son of God” or a “Son of the Virgin” by purifying and transforming themselves through service and sacrifice to an extent that the Divine can express itself through them. This is the path of the initiates and Masters of Wisdom. Virgo is…
Leo - the Inner and the Outer Heart
Image of the Month of Leo The heart centre within us corresponds to the energy of Leo. The Sun rules the sign of Leo. Its symbol is the circle with a central point. Whenever the Sun transits through this sign, it stimulates the leonine qualities in us. Leo is the sign of self-consciousness, and the Sun in the heart lotus is its symbol. The self-awareness of a personality that is proud of itself is the first level of development in a human and it is different from being aware of the Self or the Soul. The little ‘I am’ of the personality finds the great ‘I AM’ of the Soul through contemplation in the heart centre. The heart centre is the pulsating space where we can receive love-energy from subtle sources. The heart is the divine ‘micro-space’, while the cosmic space is the ‘macro-space’ or…
Cancer – Planetary Fusion
Image of the Month of Cancer The watery sign of Cancer is ruled by Moon. On the lower planes it represents the consciousness of the masses tinged by floods of emotions. Moon reflects the rays of all other planets, especially of Neptune. On the lower planes, Neptune causes (self-) delusion and glamour. On the higher planes, Neptune refines us, offering profound experiences of ecstatic joy and absorption into oceanic states of awareness. Its colour is aquamarine. The painting is an inner and outer contemplation. You see a shape of the earth as floating in the ocean of space, a fragile jewel and our home and basis of physical existence. The sea surf in the lower part of the image forms part of the ocean but is also a latent menace of flooding when the heat of the earth increases. As per…
Gemini - The Divine Hermaphrodite
Image of the Month of Gemini The wisdom teachings speak of the male-female God. In creation, male and female energies are always together. The masculine corresponds to existence, the feminine corresponds to consciousness. The subjectivity is referred to as the Lord and the objectivity as the power of the Lord, as his wife. According to ancient Indian tradition, Gemini embodies Shakti and Shiva as Ardhanari, a figure that is half man and half woman. In the Greek tradition, the male-female God is referred to as Adonai. Gemini indicates the ideal status of the androgyne or hermaphrodite, where the masculine and feminine energies are balanced within. Gemini is also revered as the entrance to the temple of the Lord, the gateway to the subtle world. The two pillars represent Jachin and Boaz,…
Inauguration of the Gallery of Synthesis
A place for group meetings and wisdom teachings Video clip from the inauguration In June 2024, I gave nearly all my physical paintings and related material (photo books and albums) to my friends Ursula Bravo and Jesús Rosauro. They are living in a farmhouse near Murcia in Southern Spain and they gave the paintings a warm welcome. It was like “the paintings arriving at their home”. Together with helpers, Jesús had intensely worked for 9 months to transform a huge hall into the ‘Galería de Síntesis’ (Gallery of Synthesis). The gallery is now a beautiful, light-filled space in a 1st floor – thus, keeping it free from just curious passers-by. It was a great work of good will and selfless commitment. The Galería de Síntesis opened its doors on 4 May 2025 in the Casa Vamsi, at Carril Hijastros…
Taurus – The Geometry of Creation as the Container of Beauty
Image of the Month of Taurus The principle of beauty in creation is expressed through forms. Form is the medium through which beauty manifests itself and through which we come into contact with beauty. We find beauty through form, but not in form. The geometry of creation is the container for the expression of beauty. Beauty is the divine side of form and is in truth beyond form. Through beauty, forms tend to become perfect. When we see the divine side of form, we find the splendour and hidden harmony in creation. We see a flower, and waves of beauty radiate through the flower. The beauty of the flower lies in its wholeness, not in any part of it. By contemplating a beautiful form, we take the beauty inside of ourselves. By connecting inwardly with beauty, ugliness is transformed into the…
Aries - The Urgency of the Time
Image of the Month of Aries Eons ago, a group of Solar Angels decided to descend into lower man and implant spiritual Light into the brain cells of humans. This spiritual Light is the Light of the Soul or the Solar Angel within each of us. It makes us identify as ‘I AM’. This event for humanity is called the crisis of individualisation in evolution. It was part of the grand Plan to make human being self-aware. Two qualities were held back at that time, spiritual Love and spiritual Life. At the present time, the Solar Angel has decided on a new orientation. From the viewpoint of the Hierarchy, there is an urgency of time to inform people about this and thereby allow them to orientate themselves towards spiritual Love and Life. The coming strong influence of the Aquarian Age is a second…
Pisces – Colours of Pisces and the Cosmic Person
Image of the Month of Pisces The human form is a reflection of the form of the Cosmic Person. According to Master EK's ‘Spiritual Astrology’, the secrets of these correspondences are preserved and concealed in Pisces and are reflected in the depths of our consciousness as ‘photographs’. In our perception of the objective world, we know colours as the effect colours have on us. How we designate a colour is an individual perception that differs from person to person. The colour of Pisces is described by some as light blue and by others as bright or transparent white. The colour of the sign is difficult to describe in words. It corresponds to the clear sky in bright daylight. The colour has two phases. It appears blue but is actually white like the radiant magnesium flame. Spiritual…
Aquarius - Vena the Gandharva
Image of the Month of Aquarius The Indian Puranas describe musical intelligences which are called Gandharvas. They are supra-cosmic beings who are not bound to creation. They exist as musical movements in space and assist the work of creation. The music of the Gandharvas brings about the union of the souls with the Supersoul and bestows the bliss of liberation. There is a royal Gandharva called Vena. He is poetically described as the essence of the Aquarian passage between apparent non-existence to apparent existence. Vena moves with ease between these two states like a spiritual and fiery river. This flow energy can also be described as a bridge going up to the highest and coming down from the highest. In us, the flow of the river Vena is located between the seventh and sixth chakras,…
