The Rays and Earth's Light Bodies

Earth Ray: This Ray draws energy from the Prahanic Body of Earth. It is a denser Ray Force, and gives life to all created forms on Earth. The lighter pastel colors of the Blue Ray, the Pink Ray, and the Yellow Ray also correspond to Earth’s First Light Body.
Blue Ray: The Dark Blue Ray and Cobalt Blue Ray draw energy and force from Earth’s Second Light Body, known as Everno.
Pink Ray: The Magenta-Pink Ray draws energy and force from Earth’s Third Light Body Eshano. Eshano is affiliated with the everchanging evolutionary needs of life on Earth.
Yellow Ray: The Yellow Ray draws energy and force from the Earth’s Fourth Light Body Buitsha. This light body is associated with the “collective subconscious” of humanity.
White Ray: The White Ray draws energy and force from Earth’s Fifth Light Body. Earth’s Fifth Light Body is also known as the Golden Grid that empowers the fifty-one Golden Cities.
Green Ray: The Green Ray draws energy and force from Earth’s Sixth Light Body – a Cosmic Celestial Body. Earth’s Sixth Light body is affiliated with Avatars not only from Earth, but from nearby Galaxies. It is said to hold vast amounts of information: spiritual, prophetic, scientific, and Akashic. As a note, this is the energetic level that was accessed to download many of the I AM America prophecies and accompanying spiritual information.
Ruby-Gold Ray: The Ruby-Gold Ray draws energy and force from the Earth’s Seventh Light Body, also known as the Cosmic Causal Body. The Cosmic Causal Body of Earth is associated with the Great Central Sun – the Galactic Center.
Violet Ray: The Violet Ray draws energy and force from the Connectosphere, also known as Earth’s Eighth Light Body. The Connectosphere holds all of the lower Seven Bodies of the Earth together, and is associated with interstellar Unity Consciousness.

Use of Ray Forces

The foundation of Ascended Master education is rooted in the spiritual teachings of the Seven Rays of Light and Sound. The Rays expand esoteric power; the utilization of their energies guides students to the fascinating world of Co-creation. A restorative and sacred journey, where the soul encounters the inherent blueprint of perfection, begins with this venerated science. Knowledge and application of the Seven Rays can emancipate an individual from third-dimensional restraints and transform consciousness into the expanded experiences of the super senses: telepathy, clairvoyance, clairaudience, spontaneous healing, and Unity Consciousness.
A Ray is a perceptible energy, though its presence is often subtle. Only individuals whose attention is tuned to the nuances of the Fourth and Fifth Dimensions may readily detect the esoteric existence of a Ray. Through personal experience, conscious understanding, and various states of awareness and manifestation students refine their ability to recognize the presence of Ray Forces. According to Ascended Master teachings, Ray Forces are present in every aspect of human endeavor; these energies influence the physical, psychological, emotional, and psychic essence of mankind. Rays are said to dispense Karma and direct spiritual evolution—individually and collectively. - by Lori Toye from Light of Awakening

The Gold Ray

The Gold Ray in classic astrology and teachings on the Rays is often identified with our Solar Sun, an archetype of the Divine Father, and associated with leadership, courage, independence, authority, and justice. In fundamental Ascended Master teachings, the Gold Ray is often paired with the Ruby Ray, and this celestial partnership refines the energies of Mars (the Ruby Ray) from its base energies of war and aggression into passion, skill, determination, and duty. In later teachings on the Rays, the Gold Ray is also coupled with the Aquamarine Ray (Neptune), as a moderator of this Ray’s association with illusion and fantasy, evolving the blue-green Ray’s mysticism into perception, self-realization, transparency, and spiritual Unity. The Gold Ray is also associated with the Great Central Sun, the Solar Logos; our Solar Sun is a step-down transformer of its energies. According to the Master Teachers, the Gold Ray is the epitome of change for the New Times. The Gold Ray is the ultimate authority of Cosmic Law and carries both our personal and worldwide Karma and Dharma (purpose). Its presence is designed to instigate responsible spiritual growth and planetary evolution for humanity’s aspirations and the development of the HU-man. The Gold Ray, however, is also associated with Karmic justice and will instigate change: constructive and destructive. The extent of catastrophe or transformation is contingent on humanity’s personal and collective spiritual growth and evolutionary process as we progress into the New Times.

The Definition of a Ray

A Ray, simply stated, divides its efforts into two measurable and discernable powers: light and sound. Alice Bailey, author of many spiritual and esoteric works, wrote in A Treatise on the Seven Rays, “A Ray is but a name for a particular force or type of energy, with the emphasis upon the quality which that force exhibits, and not upon the form aspect which it creates. This is a true definition of a Ray.” Bailey’s work underscores the abstract elements of a Ray but omits its tangible importance. The presence of a Ray also creates many physical attributes, which are significant in Ascended Master teachings.
Light and sound are the building blocks of our universe; therefore, the Rays permeate everything in our world of thought, feeling, and action. A developed psychic may perceive the twin matrix powers of light and sound as specific colors and sound frequencies in the energy fields of an individual—the aura. Nature mimics a similar pattern: a plant blooms a variety of colorful flowers, a common mineral becomes a precious gem, a songbird’s melody is distinct and characteristic to its species. Each color and sound contains an undeniable unique vibration.
Light and sound evoke attributes and properties that carry specific cultural meaning as well. In the Western world, black is often associated with darkness and evil; it is the hue of mourning and death. Yet in some Native American traditions, black represents the Great Mystery and is linked to the cardinal direction north on the medicine wheel. Though white is traditional attire for a Western wedding, white is often worn at funerals in Eastern cultures. Sound is no exception to cultural identity. Western music reflects the spectral experience of human emotion; Eastern music mimics the sounds of nature and its tranquil effect on human consciousness.
A person’s culture will influence his or her experience of the Rays, creating a diverse spiritual interpretation. This cultural filter can cause misunderstandings, discrepancies, and confusion. That’s why the esoteric translation of the Rays is often lost to the novice.

The Water of Knowledge

According to the Master Teachers, consciousness requires nourishment—much like the physical body—in order to grow and develop. When the Ascended Masters choose a chela or student to work with, they emit this vital energy to the individual, which transmits an essential substance known as the Water of Knowledge.
The Water of Knowledge functions like an oceanic tidal system and transfers waves of conscious energy of differing degrees of power, force, and intention designed to stimulate and impact the student’s consciousness through various effects.
The constant roll of undulating consciousness moves with precision and timeliness, geared specifically for the student, and his or her level of Mastery and spiritual achievement. Since this energy is specifically unique for the spiritual level and vibration of the individual, and the “work at hand,” Master Teachers often assign a certain day of the week to release the energies of the Water of Knowledge, selected precisely for its vibration, influence, harmony, and Ray Force. Days of the week typically assigned to the Seven Rays are:
1. Sunday: the sun; Ruby and Gold Rays
2. Monday: the moon; White, Blue, and Pink Rays
3. Tuesday: Mars; the Ruby Ray and the Pink Ray
4. Wednesday: Mercury; the Green Ray
5. Thursday: Jupiter; the Yellow Ray
6. Friday: Venus; the White, Blue, and Pink Rays
7. Saturday: Saturn; the Blue and Violet Rays
Balinese Hindus celebrate Saraswati, the Goddess of Learning through specific ceremonies designed to worship “God in his manifestation as the Master of all knowledge.” Contained within this series of ceremonies is the Banyu Pinaruh, also known as the Water of Knowledge. During this ceremony, devotees swim and wash in sacred rivers and lakes, purify their bodies with medicinal herbs, and engage in communal prayers for spiritual knowledge, spiritual wisdom, and good health. “The more knowledge people have, the wiser they should be in speech, thought, and deed; and human life will become more interesting, beautiful, and delightful and full of peace.”
