ESOTERIC NUMEROLOGY BASED ON THE 7 RAYS Leoni Hodgson v3 2014 PMAFA, DMNZAS, MSE (Psych), PhDe Esotericism

Astrologers and Numerologists are always looking at numbers or planet movements in order to try to ascertain upcoming trends and cycles. There are many systems of numerology. I thought it might be useful from an esoteric viewpoint, to look at how numbers affect humanity on a global scale, and how human consciousness is shaped and moulded by the Seven Ray influences.

1. THE SEVEN RAY QUALITIES The Seven Rays are the seven forces of Deity that are used to build the universe and colour consciousness. In the following section, the author describes the qualities of the rays. In many instances these are identical with exoteric numerology. For more information on the Seven Rays read Alice A. Bailey’s Esoteric Psychology volumes I and II. Rays 1, 2, 3 - The three major rays of “the Father”, the Trinity Number 1 and the 1st Ray of Will and Power (the red ray) Ray 1 is the creative-destroying force of the universe - volcanoes erupting, earthquakes, tsunamis, war, death, destruction, all followed by the bursting forth of new life and new beginnings. In human nature it gives tremendous power, strength, will, courage and fearlessness. Ray 1 types are rulers and leaders statesmen, managers, statesmen, governors, supervisors, politicians, judges, law enforcers, military personnel, pioneers, explorers, the matriarch who rules the family with a rod of iron. Weaknesses: wilfulness, anger, violence, controlling behaviour, unrelenting ambition, pride, separativeness and isolationism. Ray 1 figures: Patton, Franklin Roosevelt, Charlemagne, Anwar Sadat, Chancellor Bismarck, Adolph Hitler, Mohandas Gandhi, Mikhail Gorbachev, Hercules, Winston Churchill, Mussolini, Margaret Thatcher, Paul Keating, Khrushchev, Luther, Carlyle, Walt Whitman, Napoleon, Kitchener. Number 2 and the 2nd Ray of Love-Wisdom (the indigo blue ray) Ray 2 is the attractive and magnetising force of the universe, which draws life and matter together, to build the stars, planets and all form life. Then in man, from the merging of Father-Mother, the Son (consciousness, soul) arises, and evolves from ignorance to wisdom. Our solar system is governed by the second ray, and there are more ray two souls on Earth, than on any of the other rays. Ray 2 focuses on “we.” There are two distinctive Ray 2 groups - those who represent the love aspect and are drawn to healing; and those who represent clear wisdom and are drawn to education. They are the most charismatic and magnetic group of souls, are reformers and humanitarians. Weaknesses: non-assertive, deep inferiority complexes, self-pitying. They express emotions indiscriminately, bind others through a need to be loved, become too attached; are too Impressionable, vulnerable, fearful, overprotective, hypersensitive. "Wisdom" types are too cold and indifferent, too absorbed in study, they scorn mental limitation in others. Ray 2 figures: Buddha, Christ, Plato, Pythagoras, Albert Schweitzer, Abraham Maslow, Mother Theresa, Carl Jung, Sigmund Freud, Alice Bailey. 1

Number 3 and the 3rd Ray of Active Intelligence (the green ray) Ray 3 is the force of the Mind of God as it works through substance. It is the highly fertile and intelligent activity of matter itself, which naturally and easily adapts itself to suit its environment and covers the earth with an active blanket of life. It is the intelligence of the form, which knows exactly what it needs to do to reproduce, to nourish itself and to survive. This is the third ray at work in the universe, and it is always concerned with the material and external. This ray develops human intelligence, and produces individuals who can master the complexities of the modern civilised world, and excel intellectually in all its fields. Vocations which come under this ray: business people, financiers, entrepreneurs, alchemists, chemists, astrologers, astronomers, physicists, mathematicians, tacticians, strategists. Weaknesses: deviousness, untruthful, deceitful, manipulative, calculating, scattered reasoning, restless wasted motion, chaos, amoral materialism. Ray 3 figures: Albert Einstein, Bertrand Russel, J.D. Rockefeller, Isaac Asimov, Aristotle, St. Thomas Aquinas, Machiavelli, Shylock, F Krupp, Jack Nicholson, Lucretia Borgia, Bill Gates, Richard Branson. The four minor rays of “Mother-Intelligence” Number 4 and the 4th Ray of Harmony through Conflict (the yellow ray) This is the ray-force of conflict and war. It rules the Human Kingdom, hence the struggle and conflict which seems so distinctive of our race. But it is also the Ray of Beauty, because when all differences are resolved and all parts come together into a harmonious whole, the result is glorious. The types love all that is beautiful. Artists can be found on any ray, but there seems to be a preponderance of them on R4 composers, musicians, writers, and all entertainers. Mediation, counselling and peace-making belong to this ray. Weaknesses: constant inner/ outer conflict, fights for sake of fighting, excessive moodiness, emotional instability, self absorbed in suffering, unregulated passion, exaggeration, inertia, procrastination, indecisiveness, moral cowardice and swings to extremes. Ray 4 figures: Michelangelo, Pablo Picasso, Dostoyevsky, Shakespeare, Salvador Dali, Sir Lawrence Olivier, Dylan Thomas, Eugene O'Neil, Ludwig van Beethoven, Isadora Duncan, Pablo Picasso, Benevento Cellini, Richard Wagner, Robert Burns (poet), Wolfgang Mozart, Franz Schubert, Clause Debussy, Giacomo Rossini, Leonardo da Vinci, Lord Byron, Vincent Van Gogh, El Greco, Edgar Allen Poe, Percy Bysshe Shelley, Felix Mendelssohn, Anna Pavlova, Raphael. Number 5 and the 5th Ray of Concrete Mind and Science (the orange ray) This ray-force governs the Aryan (in consciousness) race, and the development of the discriminating and scientific mind. It has brought about the enquiring, questioning nature which launches man to search for answers about himself and his place in the world. It produces scientists, electricians, engineers, inventors, analysts, surgeons, lawyers, technicians, psychologists, astrologers, detectives, etc. Historical examples are Thomas Edison, Louis Pasteur, Charles Darwin, Alan Leo, Rudolph Steiner. But it becomes a problem when over-emphasised. For then facts and knowledge are used to find differences, and to divide and attack - the separative spirit is the cause of all sin on Earth. Weaknesses: overanalytical, ultra-rational, over detailed, rigid and set thought patterns, narrow minded, biased, separative, judgmental, lacks compassion. Ray 5 figures: Louis Pasteur, Gregor Mendel, Thomas Edison, Wright Brothers, Charles Darwin, Niels Bohr, Galileo, Isaac Newton, Madame Curie. Number 6 and the 6th Ray of Devotion and Idealism (the pale blue or rose ray) Ray 6 is related to the Astral Plane and is the force of emotion, idealism and burning desire. Ray six souls are idealistic, pure, good, saints, earnest, trusting, sincere, profoundly humble, and their unstinting service to the poor and suffering is legendary. Mother Theresa is an outstanding example. They are unshakeably loyal and self-sacrificing. Ray six types are drawn to religious and service vocations - the mystic, devotee, the saint, preacher, evangelist, missionary, church official, martyr, orator, philanthropy, reformer, nurse, aide and carers. Weaknesses: too intense and fanatical, blind emotionalism, unreasoning devotion, unwise susceptibility to guidance, unvarying one-pointedness in spite of evidence to contrary, superstitious, gullible, jealous; masochism, a martyr-complex and self abasement. Ray 6 figures: Jesus of Nazareth, Joan of Arc, Ayatollah Khomeini, Jane Fonda, Billy Graham, Jerry Falwell, Ronald Reagan, Rev Jesse Jackson, Rev. Al Sharpton, Martin Luther King, Florence Nightingale. Number 7 and the 7th Ray of Ceremony, Order and Magic (the purple ray) Number “7” has been viewed by many numerologists as being a number involving ‘going into retreat’ and also sacrifice, and is often associated in this regard with Neptune. Esoterically, the sacrifice involves the pain and suffering which occurs when souls are too attached to their material possessions - Ray 7 rules the physical plane. In the cycle of numbers from 1 to 7 it is the last number, so when strong in the life does teach the necessity of learning to “let go” and move on. Although it is a number which gives power to organised earth life, Ray 7 also rules ritual and magic. Many “7’ people may be organised and earthbound, others live with “fairies” and opt for an alternative lifestyle. 2

This lowest ray is related to the highest - ray one; it manifests God’s Plan on Earth. It is the manifesting ray, producing forms on the Physical Plane, which it rules. Ray seven types are “manifesters” because they know how to work the rituals of life. They excel in any vocation which requires superior management and organising skill - business leaders, managers, politicians, organisers, alchemists, ritualists, designers, architects, stage directors, magicians and occultists. Weaknesses: over concern with rules, regulations, the law, subservience to habit, excessive perfectionism, snobbishness. Pompous ritual, bigotry, sectarianism, addicted to the occult, perversion of the magical process and materialism. Ray 7 figures: Sir Francis Bacon, Sir Francis Drake Leonardo Da Vinci, General Kitchener, Aleister Crowley, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, Merlin, Kofi Annan, Tony Blair, Jackie Onassis, Audrey Hepburn. 8 and 9 The number "8" carries the vibration of rays 1 + 7; the manifesting of will and power. Number "9' carries the vibration of rays 2 + 7; the manifesting of love and wisdom.

2. THE FOUR DIGIT SYSTEM USED TO NUMBER THE YEARS. The development of human consciousness, the qualities being developed, can be mapped by analysing the four digit system used to number the years. For example 1953. 1.

The first digit sets the tone and goal for 1000 years. Hence the goal of the “1” which underpinned the evolutionary goal for humanity in the last millennium was to develop individuality and self consciousness.

2.

The second digit sets the tone and goal for 100 years. The development of individuality (1), was to be fine tuned by the nine vibration in the 1900’s. “9” is a synthesising number, so the development of a holistic and more philosophical attitude in human consciousness, was the goal. This would help balance the self centred and selfish tendencies of “1”. As a consequence, a more integrated and interdependent society emerged into the 21st century.

3.

The third number is in effect for ten years. The fifties was intended to be a decade of change and movement, fundamental qualities of the “5”. Humanity still remained in a state of flux following the end of the world war, as immigrants sought a new life in new countries. This transplanting of millions of people, and the introduction of their new ideas and culture upon the collective mind of their new country, would help achieve the goal of the “9”.

4.

The last digit, that of any current year, remains in effect for twelve months. The purpose of this final number is to bring about certain specific results which:

1. Contribute to the goal of the current decade. 2. Contribute to the goal of the current century. 3. To the overall development of consciousness according to the millennium number. For example: The “3” in 1953 brought in the vibration of the Active Intelligence Ray, and in that year the structure of DNA was worked out. This was a great intellectual feat for mankind. The discovery of genetic coding made a major contribution not only to scientific thought which belongs to the “5”, but also to philosophical thought which belongs to “9”. All these number effects helped the overall “1” evolutionary goal in that millennium - to produce self conscious human beings.

3. THE SPIRITUAL GOAL OF A MILLENNIUM WITH BASE NUMBER “2” The purpose of the “2” millennium is the development of wiser and more loving ways of interacting with others. This is the goal on both a personal and global scale. Some of the Names of the Lord of R2, and therefore which give a clue to His purpose, are: The Lord of Eternal Love, The Giver of Wisdom, The Radiance in the Form, The Cosmic Christ, The One who hides the Life, The Light Bringer. Essentially, this ray is responsible for giving birth to the Christ consciousness - the "light within the form", through human consciousness. This millennium gives the Lord of Ray 2, the Lord of Love and Wisdom, a thousand years to develop these qualities. This is also the goal of the Solar Logos whose primary ray is “2”, and which is also a major ray of our Planet Logos. So one can see how vital this millennium is, not only to humanity but in larger schemes and cycles as well. 3

Paralleling this is the fact that we are also currently in the Aquarian Age. Its goal also happens to be the development of love and wisdom, to be expressed through the Aryan (intellectual) consciousness once it has been raised to a more universal or wiser level. Have you noticed a different type of consciousness in children born since 2000? Many have speech and behavioural difficulties, are a little backward in walking and communicating. There seems to be a tremendous re-orientation going on as sensitive souls who are seeds for the “2” vibration and therefore ‘wired’ to be more considerate of others, try to cope with an atmosphere on earth which has been created by one thousand years of self centredness and gratification under the “1”. A few years may be needed for adjustment.

4. THE FIRST DECADE OF A NEW MILLENNIUM - THE SEED PERIOD The first decade of a new millennium is the most vital seeding period for the entire greater cycle. Based on the Law of Correspondences, events which occur on earth during the first decade set the tone for what can be expected in the future. The following list indicates the years which affect future decades and centuries. Year 2000 sets the tone for the first ten years and for the entire first century. Year 2001 sets the tone for the second decade (2010-2019) and for the second century (2100-). Year 2002 sets the tone for the third decade (2020-2029) and for the third century (2200-). Year 2007 sets the tone for the eighth decade (2070-2079) and for the eighth century (2700-). And so on.

In the year 2007 [when the original paper was written]: The world as a whole was bathed in the vibrations of “2” and “7”. The Lord of Love was seeking to seed His purpose in a more organised, fundamental, and generic way (7). Ray 7 is called the Ray of Ceremony, Order and Magic. It is often called the manifesting ray, as many things previously conceived only in the mind, are birthed physically. A major scientific break-through, was the creation of stem cells from skin cells. Although in its infancy, geneticists say this science holds great promise for the future treatment of illness. XXXXXXXXXXXXXX You could expect to see leaders who are (1) fight for the well-being of all people, or (2) more grouporiented, who are more practical and organised in meeting the needs of suffering humanity, make their appearance. As an example, Kevin Rudd and his Labor Party were elected into office in Australia, after 11 years of the wealth-oriented Liberal coalition. The Labor party traditionally supports the rights of the workers and disadvantaged in society – and therefore is more closely aligned with the work of the Christ. A simple act of saying “sorry” to the Aboriginal people for the suffering endured under Australian Government policies over the last 150 years, was a milestone in right-human relations, and has helped bring white and black closer together. A “7” vibration provides opportunity for occult workers, to manifest aspects of the Plan – specifically to do with the Reappearance of the Christ – since 7 is associated with the planet Neptune which is a symbol for Christ. i It is a year in which White Magic can be potently wielded by those who know how to express this force through occult meditation. Seven is a number also associated with endings, sacrifice, sorrow, grief, letting go, and as a result spiritual re-orientation. Seven type words could be “sadder, but wiser, the chastened one turns within.” The underlying purpose for any sorrowful events occurring in a “7” year, is to provide mankind with an opportunity to learn from its mistakes, and respond more wisely in the future. This will be a challenge for some time, since all those in power still have the number “1” powerfully resonating through their natures. It will require those who are in touch with the Soul, and are responding to the higher vibrations of the numbers and rays, to show humanity how to respond in a new and wiser way. I would expect there will be more of this type appearing amongst the crop of new world leaders over the coming years.

It is logical to think that since Neptune in a lower sense rules fundamentalist religious groups, ‘sorrow’ could continue to come via their machinations, as it has for so many years. But the old ways of responding to terrorist force - seeking an “eye for an eye”, a “1” type of response, is no longer appropriate. Now that humanity is in a “2” millennium, we need to learn to respond in line with Christ’s vibration. By dealing with the roots of the disaffection - and through intelligent negotiation, including all affected and involved parties. The Aquarian way! 5. INFLUENCE OF “9” When the numbers 2007 are added together, we realise the digit “9”, which was also influential in that year. As well as being a number associated with wise realisations, 9 is also a number indicating 4

major endings leading to new beginnings! This all fits with the above observations. For example, we should see the ending of certain world alliances (political, national, social), and the birth of new partnerships in the coming “1” year [2008 = 1]. Both the UK, Australia and the US are due for new political leaders in this period, and the new brigade will lay the foundation for a new 9 year cycle of inter-action. The new Secretary General of the United Nations Mr. Ban Ki-Moon, is in an ideal position now time-wise, to bring about necessary reforms and updates which will enable the UN to be more effective vehicle for the Christ, as it responds to world need. On an individual level, analyse your own life to see what has become old and lifeless, and which needs to be shed in order for you to be unencumbered and free for the coming new cycle beginning next year! Figure out what you need to do in order to fulfil your soul destiny as a seed for the new age (because you are in incarnation now). The Christ energy is drawing closer to mankind, and is due to manifest around 2025. The collective response from aspirants, disciples and initiates will determine whether this revelation is delayed or on time! We are being presented with an opportunity as occult workers, to make a difference. What we do now and in the next few years will have reverberations for a thousand years! It is something to think about and respond to.
