ABOUT THE MOON -- PART TWO

Sacred Geometry
The Moon was created and placed precisely in orbit around the Earth so as to exert certain important influences upon it. Humanity today is slowly beginning to become aware of the mathematics known as the sacred geometry of the Earth. The same mathematics can be applied, only on a higher level, to the geometry of the heavenly spheres, for each of the planets is placed in orbit around the Sun and rotates along a set path according to a precise and definite cosmic formula.

In the Ages gone by Humanity has recognized and used this formula, and it will be discovered again in the New Age. The distance of the Earth from the Moon is most critical, and it is vitally important that Humanity does not disturb this balance.

The Critical Balance
Although Man has reached the Moon in his spaceships, his motivation for going there was not correct. Moreover, the use that Man has made of the Moon with his experiments and his behaviour on it has in no way helped to preserve that critical balance, and by exploding his rocket heads and by his experiments on the surface of the Moon he has endangered this delicate balance. This balance is effected and preserved by the jewels which are present both within the Moon and within the Earth.

The function of the jewels on which these two orbs rotate and balance can be likened to the function of the jewels within a watch. If you give a watch a shock and jerk the mechanism then it becomes unbalanced and fails: it is the same with the balancing mechanism between the Earth and the Moon. Of course the many beings on the Moon, together with their brothers and sisters from the other planets, have helped to counteract the effect of Man´s naive experiments.

Man should be aware that in these experiments he risks not only the Moon but the Earth as well, for if he was to explode a bomb of any considerable size on the Moon then the finely balanced relationship between the Earth and the Moon would be destroyed. When you swing a ball on a piece of string around your finger, and then let go, the ball flies away. In a similar fashion, if Man was to upset the relationship between the Moon and the Earth the two orbs would fly apart and the delicate balance of life both on the Earth and on the Moon would be destroyed, never to appear again.

Humanity´s Unawareness
Because Humanity is largely unaware of the invisible influences of the earth, how can it be expected to be aware of the influences of the Moon? Just as Humanity, for the most part, is unaware of the presence of the elementals, the fairies and the nature spirits, the angels and the many beings who appear on the higher planes, just as it is unaware of life on any of the other planets within this Solar Body, so it cannot conceive of life on the Moon.

But there IS life on the Moon. A whole civilization of beings dwells within it. Although they are similar in creation to Humanity, you would not recognize them as human beings because their bodies are shaped differently and they are much smaller in stature. But they do exist, with a high degree of civilization, under the surface of the Moon.

Life On The Moon
Remember that every soul that incarnates onto a planet builds a body for itself according to the nature of the planet on which it incarnates. You, who dwell on the Earth, build yourselves a physical body which is most suited for life on the Earth. You use the matter of this Earth to build your physical body, and the mechanisms within it are those which can use the oxygen of the air, the water and the fruits of the land. Your body is designed to live in the temperature range that is prevelent on the Earth. In like manner the beings who dwell on the Moon build their bodies according to the nature of the Moon.

A little concerning the conditions on the Moon is now known to Humanity, and if you were to sit down and consider what sort of body would be needed for life on the Moon you could perhaps conceive of the form and way of life of the Moon beings before such facts are discovered by other means. The Moon was put in orbit around the Earth to help in the Earth´s evolution.

The Moon beings are the servants of the Earth. The nature of their evolution is different to yours. They do not possess that gift of free choice which your Creator has given to you so that you can advance your consciousness. They are directed by other forces. They fulfil the role of the Moon, helping the Earth at all times. Their power is given to you continually, regularly, according to the cycles of the Moon.

Influences Of The Moon
The spiritual number to which matter vibrates on the Earth is four. You are aware of the four Kingdoms of Matter, the four Races, the four points of the compass, the four seasons and so on. The Moon, vibrating to that number, in your service, has four phases, or four quarters. Each of the Moon´s quarters corresponds to one of the four Kingdoms of Matter on the Earth and, during each of the quarters, the Kingdom associated with that quarter uses the power that the Moon gives according to the nature of the Kingdom and its cosmic purpose on Earth.

Humanity can accept that the Moon moves the water of the Earth because scientists are aware of the tides and have proved that its influence is responsible for them. Is it not strange how scientists, having realized that the Moon can affect the tides, look no further, for, surely, if the Moon can do this there is much else that it can do as well. In the present Age the human physical body is composed of ninety per cent water. Can the Moon not affect that? Of course it can!! Its influence is not only on the waters of the seas and the human body but on every aspect of creation on the Earth.
