Djedi -





The Djed
The Djed is a pillar, a type of the central World Tree, representing stability, continuity, and regeneration. The Festival of The Raising of the Djed dates back more than 5,000 years to predynastic times--as does the Egyptian Book of the Dead which identifies the Djed as both the backbone of Osiris and the support and backbone of the universe. The Djed, however, is more than just an object; it is a mythic complex that existed long before Osiris emerged from the dark realm of the collective unconscious.

Historically, the Djed was raised at crucial transitional times between cycles, evoking light and stability to dispel darkness and disorder. Such periods were the Winter solstices, the failing years of a reigning monarch or the coronation of a new one. However, according to the texts of the Temple of Horus at Edfu, the Djed served its greatest purpose and revealed its greatest mystery at the ending of one world age and the beginning of another. This is such time!

The Djed is the supreme unifying symbol of all polarities, connecting us to the transcendent reality of the whole, the One. It symbolizes the macro and microcosmic "axis." As the cosmic axis the Djed is the "cylinder," the column of light linking the Earth to the pole star. It represents stability because it aligns the North pole of Earth with the still-point of the revolving "dome" of the heavens--the pole star. Beyond the pole star were/are the realms of the "gods" and higher dimensions of being. In the microcosm, within us, the human axis is the spinal column, the time-tunnel of the transformative journey from the gross materialism of homosapiens to the Self-realization of homoChristos at the crown chakra. It is through this chakra that we, too, are aligned with the energies of the pole star.2




BECOMING THE OSIRIS

Osiris "Djedi" was a title of Osiris, as the Great One,8 Lord of the Universe (the universal, Self-generating life principle of the Center--i.e. the transcendent Self). The "Djedi" were the "stable ones"--wisdom keepers of one mind and one spirit who, as initiates of the Osirian mysteries, comprised the living, terrestrial body of the archetypal, celestial Osiris. Contemporary Djedi are self-selecting regenerators of cosmos. They are those who, regardless of race or creed, are awakening to mission in service to the planet and the epochal imperatives of stability, continuity and regeneration.

Egyptologist Sir Wallis Budge quotes the ancient expectation that "Since Osiris was raised to life by the words and ceremonies which Thoth taught Isis, and since Osiris has gained immortality by means of them, these same words and ceremonies will raise us to life and give us immortality also."9 The "secret Books of Thoth" containing those formulae no longer exist. But they are deeply encoded within the repository of our collective dreamtime, informing our DNA and waiting like seeds to be activated in due season by the right evolutionary imperative and guiding initiatory archetype.

It is the world soul and the force of history that now calls for, and causes, the Djed to be raised. Like the flag with its emblem raised aloft in the thick of battle to rally the flagging energies of the army, the Djed is a beacon raised in the battle for the soul of the planet. (Horus and Set are at it again . . .) And, like the warrior heroes who have throughout history stood tall as champions of the many during times of great danger and crisis, the Djedi come forth that the Djed may be raised.

The Djedi sense, and know Osiris's arising as their own. As Osiris awakens from the sleep of the aeon, the Djedi also "rise to the occasion," moving into resonant relationship as the reconstellated members of the collective Osiris. Therefore, as the mighty bones creek and the ancient One stirs, let the Djedi return. This is the historical moment of our awakening and our call. The impulse and the need for us to ritualize these events in global celebration arise, naturally, in resonance with the mythic awakening of the archetype and because it is now alive in each of us.

Now, we move from the quickening to the gathering.

"S-aha Djed!"

("Djed be raised!")

GOD/DESS Gates Open & the Angelic Hierarchy






















The Elohim
"The Elohim are the creators Gods. These are the Beings that God
created to help Him create the infinite universe. In some teachings
the Elohim are referenced as the though attributes of God, where the
angels are referenced as the feelings of God.
The term Elohim means "All that God is", and is plural which means
many Gods. This is an interesting fact because this term is used in
the old testament over 2,500 times as the name of God. So God did not
create the universe Himself, He had helpers, which are the Elohim.
The term Elohim is also one of the power names of God in the Kaballah,
which is the book of Jewish mysticism. In the Kaballah, it is
referenced as the "Divine Mother". The term Yod Hey Vod Hay or Jehovah
is referenced as the divine Father.
The term ELOHIM is one of the most powerful mantras a person can say.
Paul Solomon, in his channelings of the Universal Mind, was told in
these channelings to have his students use this mantrum in their
meditations above all other mantras. This is quite an interesting
piece of information, given that Paul Solomon's training before
beginning his source channelings, was as a Southern Baptist minister.

The Greek word for the Elohim is Exousiai. Rudolph Steiner, the great
German mystic, called the Elohim the Spirits of Form. In the bible it
describes the Elohim as saying "We and Our Image", that humans are
created.
The book, "The Keys of Enoch" refers to the Elohim as those beings
that created the world by the will of YHWH, YHWH being the Jewish name
for the Godhead. The Elohim and Angels might be thought of as the left
and right hand of God. They are direct extensions of the Creator. Each
Elohim has a male and female aspect. and there are seven Great Elohim,
just as there are seven great rays emanating from the Creator.
The names of the Seven Mighty Elohim are:
1. Hercules and Amazonia
2. Apollo and Lumina
3. Heros and Amora
4. Purity and Astrea
5. Cyclopia and Virginia
6. Peace and Aloha
7. Arcturus and Victoria

The Orientals refer to Angels as Devas. The Angelic evolution is a
parallel to that of human beings. The angels who cooperate with the
Spiritual Hierarchy of our planet are more focused on the "form"
aspect of our planet. The Hierarchy is more focused on the
consciousness that lives within the form."

the Archangels, being more vibrational structures (sacred geometrical matrices of influence), are more easily accepted into rational and rigid structures of thought in the form of SOUND.

Tom Kenyon has worked with these structures (archangels) and has channeled their energies into sound - music, which he calls the Angel Codes. You can access these through his website and he offers the Raphael Code for free.
