I have
been working with the symbol of a shining six-pointed Star for nearly fifty
years now. Year by year I have found great personal help from it and help in
focusing my thoughts and prayers and healing meditations. Obviously, it feels a
particularly significant symbol at this season of the year. The traditional
Christmas story tells of the Wise Men following a Star to find the birthplace
of Jesus, the Christ child. Each aspect of the Christmas story is symbolic (as
White Eagle explains in his teachings) and we could interpret the ‘Wise Men’ as
pilgrims on their spiritual journey, seeking their goal of heavenly wisdom and
illumination. The Star guides them on their way, as it guides us all if we open
our hearts and lift up our eyes to heavenly things.
In Healing the World White Eagle says: ‘We in the world of spirit could weld you
closer together! We would unite you heart to heart, so that you work as a great
Star of light. When you visualise the Star and send it forth, you are sending
out pure light into the world. You are truly healing the world. Nothing but
good is accomplished by your linking with the Star). Train yourself to
concentrate upon that symbol of the Christ-life, the shining six-pointed Star,
for it will guide you, unfailingly, to the place of perfect healing.’… and
in the book Festivals & Celebrations
he says in ‘A Meditation for Christmas’: ‘In
the silence…with the Star shining from above, and the angel choirs singing
their song of love, peace and goodwill, the Child in everyone stirs.’
And so,
my personal wish to you this Christmas time is that the thought and image of a
shining Star of great light and love will help lead you to your own inner
‘stable’ (or temple) where you will re-experience the magic of the Christ birth
and receive a blessing of renewed faith, love, reassurance and peace of heart.
HAPPY
CHRISTMAS WISHES AND LOVE FROM
Jenny
