Shining Lotus Greetings!  

 

Our hearts and prayers are lovingly extended to all those affected by the rough summer we have been experiencing in Colorado.

You know, really we are all affected. There is much work to be done if we are serious about bringing the light of higher consciousness to the dark places of this material, physical world.

 

"As we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence actually liberates others."     ~~Marianne Williamson

THOTH & THE BIG BANG THEORY
by Bruce Johnson

Thoth
Thoth the Egyptian

 

The Egyptian Thoth, also known as Hermes Trismegistus, is credited with authoring over 20,000 books before the year 3000 BC. His book subjects include those of science, medicine, law, music, religion, art, occultism, mathematics, astronomy, letters, history, and philosophy. The Hermetic Wisdom taught millennia ago by the ibis-headed god Thoth can shed light on many contemporary questions today.

The book Divine Pymander contains altered fragments from some of the Books of Thoth. Thoth teaches through the Pymander that divine thought is the basis of reality. Thoth is sometimes depicted with a seven-rayed solar disc on his head, indicating his divine intelligence and link with the Sun. Thoth-Hermes was traditionally related to the yellow ray and to Mercury, the scribe and messenger of the gods, who receives his wisdom from the Sun, the Solar Logos of our solar system.

Concerning religion, Thoth wrote of a unified one God that was infinite, invisible and incomprehensible to human minds, and not of a God who is a limited human-appearing being.


AtomBruce Johnson has over 30 years of study in the fields of Ancient Wisdom and occultism. He has taught classes on a wide range of topics, from Atlantis to mediums to Zoroaster. He is also a spiritualist minister, with a background in spiritual astrology. He lives in Colorado with his wife and their cat.

Free Presentation 

Deborah Klepsch is the author of "Marstuthnick: Flight of the Phoenix". Deborah has been channeling an entity named Marstuthnick or "Nick", since January of 2007.

Deborah has been a Reiki Master since 1997 and received her Doctor of Philosophy in Parapsychic Science in 2006 from the American Institute of Holistic Theology, Birmingham, Alabama.

MarstuthnickOver the past few years "Nick" has provided a quote each month. Marstuthnick: Flight of the Phoenix, is the result of these quotes. Each chapter begins with a quote, followed by my experiences at the time, which prompted these quotes, as recorded in my journal, and ends with an expanded format by Nick. This guide to self love will open your heart and eyes to the beautiful possibilities we can offer ourselves, if we only allow! Call 303-758-9113 to register.

CHANNELING KUTHUMI

by Sheryl Watson

 

Master Kuthumi
Master Kuthumi

The One Who is called Kuthumi (pronounced Koot Hoomi) is a Member of that Group of Beings Who oversee and guide the evolutionary development of Humankind on Planet Earth. They are, of course, non-physical Foci of Consciousness and are variously called The Elders of The Race, The Spiritual Hierarchy, and The Great White Brotherhood. Kuthumi is one of The Seven Chohans or Lords of The Seven Rays, which are Major Aspects and Attributes of The Creative Force for this Universe. In that role and responsibility, They transmute from a Higher Level through their Consciousness one of those particular Aspects for the benefit and progress of the sentient life on this planet. Kuthumi is The Chohan of The Second Ray, which is called Love/Wisdom and oversees the activity and global projects of The Second Ray Brotherhood Who work with this energy to promote the spiritual advancement of a laggard Human Race.

 
Sheryl WatsonSHERYL WATSON is a Spiritual Teacher, Clairvoyant and Channel. She has over 25 years experience in metaphysics and has channeled for many years in the Denver area. Her channel is held at the Shining Lotus Metaphysical Bookstore on the 2nd Monday of each month.
 
AUGUST ASTROLOGICAL UPDATE by Marci McCaffery

Astrologer Marci McCaffery
Leo the Lion 
July 24 - August 23 
 
Shift Happens 

This month the Sun transits out of the emotional waters of Cancer, into the high-spirited, fiery energies of Leo. Courageous, creative, confident, proud, and playful, are some of the keywords used to describe this sign. Leo's source energy is the heart, indicating that when our work is heart-centered, we act in creatively expressive ways, to "Shine our Light" as the magnificent spirits that we are. 
Highlights for August include an opposing configuration between the Aquarius Full Moon and the Leo Sun, on August 1st. We are challenged to combine our personal agendas (Leo) with the collective goals of community (Aquarius). This is the third of four ("Power Moons") this year.

 

Josephin Wall Leo
Leo by Josephine Wall
We are still recovering from the aftermath of last month's Pluto-Uranus square, producing challenges and conflicts. Dramatic changes are reflected in our personal lives and on a global level. Economic collapse, social upheaval and intensified solar activities are some of the visible consequences of this powerful impact. On a personal level, we have two choices; to change or be changed. Uranus tells us it's time for something completely different while Pluto indicates that conventional ways of doing things are no longer sustainable. This is the first of seven squares to arise in the coming months.

HERE'S A 'SECRET' - RELEASE...LET GO...& SUCCEED! with Mario C. Veo.
Tuesday, August 7, 2012. 7 - 8:30pm. $20.

Nothing stops us except the bindings WE have created to the past... as long as we still carry its imprint, have strong emotions or hot buttons, then we are not 'free' to live Life as we wish. By our own doing (or lack therof) WE empower these very Limitations that belittle us. Well, here's my question: "What are you worth...and what are you willing to do about it?

WHY WE DO IT...AND SHOULD WE? It doesn't matter if we love our family or not... we are all energetically connected, and are doomed to suffer from 'Family Karma".

HEALER...HEAL THYSELF!! with Mario C. Veo.
Tuesday, August 28, 2012. 7 - 8:30pm. $20.
