The week is busy. Saturday is Flag Day, Sunday is Father’s Day (let us honor our Fathers) and Wednesday is the Gemini Solar Festival, Sag Full Moon, Christ Festival, and World Invocation Day. Wednesday’s full moon solar festival occurs at 10:30 am (Pacific time) at 28 degrees Gemini/Sag. The Shamballa force (Ray 1, Power & Will of God) will be distributed to humanity, the Earth and all five kingdoms (mineral, plant, animal, human, Soul) at the very moment of the full moon. Join us, everyone, by reciting the Great Invocation, the great Mantram of Direction, at the actual time of the Full Moon. (Read more on the Festival and Celestial Events at www.nightlightnews.com)
