Thus, you can expect to find heightened emotions surfacing, the energizing of the [[astral body]], and the coming to the fore of old momentums like “Old Nick”—that is another name for the [[dweller-on-the-threshold]]. These must be slain once again, with the sounding of the final death knell upon that carnal mind, by your own enlightened spirits which take the sword of Maitreya and stand guard in the [[Church Universal and Triumphant]] and in the heart of the mystical body.<ref>Kuthumi, “The Light of Winter Solstice,” {{POWref|27|58|, December 9, 1984}}</ref> | Thus, you can expect to find heightened emotions surfacing, the energizing of the [[astral body]], and the coming to the fore of old momentums like “Old Nick”—that is another name for the [[dweller-on-the-threshold]].

Christmas, you know, is also the eternal spring. For Christ was born in the spring of the year and we do celebrate our Christmas on the very first day of spring, as the hierarchies of Pisces pass the torch of God-mastery to the hierarchies of Aries. At that point of the release of the Christ consciousness the Manchild is born and the angels sing, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.”<ref>Luke 2:14.</ref> | Christmas, you know, is also the eternal spring.

The celebration of the birth of Christ came to be at winter solstice, at the darkest hour of the year, when those wise intelligences who govern the cycles of initiation of mankind observed that the satanic rites, the pagan cultures, had the celebration of their feasts of the carnal mind during this period of darkness.

Therefore the celebration of Christmas has been for the exaltation of that flame, and many among mankind have communed and have found the most precious entering in to the heart of Jesus and [[Mother Mary|Mary]] and [[Saint Joseph|Joseph]] at that season of the year, while others have made of it an even greater cult of the senses, of partying and frolicking and of misusing the light of the Christ. | Therefore the celebration of Christmas has been for the exaltation of that flame, and many among mankind have communed and have found the most precious entering in to the heart of Jesus and [[Mother Mary|Mary]] and [[Saint Joseph|Joseph]] at that season of the year, while others have made of it an even greater cult of the senses, of partying and frolicking and of misusing the light of the Christ. | ||
