This is the fourth volume of the series, Soul Cycles of the Seven Rays, whose essays range over a variety of zodiac sign perspectives from Aries through to Pisces, esoterically considered. Esoteric Astrology is the Science of the Seven Rays, hence the rays, signs and planets are mentioned frequently as the conditioning influences upon Earth and all the entities contained therein, whether they are individuals, groups, cities, nations or kingdoms.
The Science of Cycles is also another factor that is incorporated, along with the Science of Initiation, a sub-science of Esoteric Astrology. The author always endeavours to make practical this sometimes very abstruse science, hence there are many references to current world events such as the Germanwings tragedy, the twelve spiritual festivals corresponding to the zodiac signs, the themes of glamour, maya and illusion, music and art, natural disasters; Shamballa, global transformation, the nuclear age, initiation, extreme sports, famous personalities, right human relationships, the digital revolution, environmental issues, human crises, healing, the role of fixed stars, sexuality, the solstices and equinoxes.

Preface
Soul Cycles of the Seven Rays IV emerges three years after Vol. III – derived from the past three years of monthly newsletters and miscellaneous unpublished articles from 2015-2018. The reader will bear in mind when the author is commenting in the present tense, it concerns specific dates when those newsletters were written.
Nevertheless, the material is certainly not ‘dated’, as the Ageless Wisdom is always just that, ageless or timeless. Also, given the author’s esoteric historical perspectives, when glancing back over the past few years, these dates provide a useful retrospective. The order of the newsletters and articles through the zodiac signs, as listed in the index and throughout the book, is from 2015-2018. In some cases such as the subject of Donald Trump, everything written about him is contained within the Leo section of the book.
The exceptions are when individuals are discussed in the context of a nation – such as Putin or Netanyahu, are relegated or duplicated in the author’s companion volume, The Destiny of the Races and Nations III. Other purely political themes of any nation as a whole, or the examination of a social trend or greater entity are also consigned to that book. Some articles are very hard to split and one or two are in both books.
Most quoted passages, unless otherwise stated are derived from the works of Alice A. Bailey, the author of twenty-four books transmitted to her by the Tibetan Master, Djwhal Khul. Esoteric Astrology is one of these titles and is the basis for the new astrology that will lead us into the Aquarian Age.
I hope you enjoy reading these essays as a practical application of Esoteric Astrology. I feel fortunate to be able to serve in this creative capacity of making the work of The Tibetan more accessible.
