The Structure of Our Galaxy

Our Pleiadian Connection

Note: Before reading this section, it would be important to be familiar with the concepts discussed in the section entitled, "Patterns of Creation".

Since ancient time, astronomers of Earth have studied the stars that appear in the night sky in an effort to better understand the vast Cosmos of which we are a part. Although it was long ago recognized that the Cosmos consists of celestial systems, within galaxies, within universes, efforts to be definitive have been hampered by our inability to observe the Cosmos from any location other than Earth. Even with the advent of recent space probes, utilizing satellite-born telescopes, we are only at a very primitive stage of space exploration. Since our solar system is located toward the outer fringes of the Milky Way galaxy, our view looking toward the Central Sun of our galaxy is hampered by the vast number of celestial systems within the inner spirals. It is the classic problem of not being able to see a forest because of all the trees. But by observing neighboring galaxies within our universe, such as the Andromeda Spiral, astronomers are better able to postulate the nature of our own galaxy.

Many of the stars that appear as clusters when viewed from Earth have been considered to be constellations, and have been labeled by various names. In some cases, however, star clusters that have been thought to constitute integral celestial system actually include stars that are part of widely dispersed celestial systems. They only appear to be clustered from our limited viewing perspective here on Earth.

The Pleiades

One such example is the Pleiades, which is ordinarily considered to be a small cluster of stars located a great distance from our solar system. In actuality, however, our solar system itself is an integral part of the celestial system that we know as the Pleiades.

This helps to explain our unusual fascination with the Pleiades exhibited throughout history, with references to it in Greek Mythology, The Psalms, and various works of poetry. The Mayan also were very much aware of our relationship to the Pleiades, and important aspects of the Mayan calendar are based on the cyclical movement of our solar system related to Alcyone, the central star of the Pleiades. The Pleiadian system is one of 12 primary celestial systems within our galaxy.

As indicated in the section entitled, "Patterns of Creation", one of the Eternals is associated with each of the 12 galaxies within our universe. The dominant Virtue with which each of the Eternals is imbued establishes the "keynote" for their respective galaxy. The dominant Virtue of the Eternal who is associated with our Milky Way galaxy is the Virtue of JUSTICE, and thus, this is the keynote of our galaxy.

Like all of the other Eternals, the Eternal whose consciousness embodies our galaxy subdivided itself into 12 Somturs. Thus, one of these Somturs is associated with each of the 12 primary celestial systems within our galaxy. The central star, or central "sun", of each of the 12 primary celestial systems within our Galaxy are listed in the following table. Also shown is the primary Virtue of the Somtur who is associated with each system.

As may be noted, the Virtue of the Somtur whose consciousness embodies Alcyone is the Virtue of PURITY. Thus, PURITY is the keynote of the Pleiadian system.

To carry this a step further, within the Pleiadian system there also are 12 primary celestial systems. As indicated previously, our solar system is one of these systems. The Somtur whose consciousness embodies the Pleiadian system, like all of the other Somturs, subdivided itself into 12 Motreses. Each of these Motreses is associated with one of the 12 primary celestial systems within the Pleiadian system. And, the dominant Virtue of each of the Motreses sets the keynote for their respective celestial system. The following table lists the central star of each of these 12 systems, and indicates the dominant Virtue of the Motres who is associated with each system.

Although the Motres that is associated with our solar system has not yet sub-dived into 12 Sentiens, these Sentiens are in their formative stages as integral units of consciousness within the structure of this Motres. Thus, the dominant Virtue of each of these units of consciousness is associated with a particular planetary system to which it is already linked.

The following table lists the planetary systems, and indicates the associated dominant Virtue.

Those who are familiar with astrology will undoubtedly notice some interesting correlations between the Virtues, as summarized in the table, and the astrological influence of the various planets.

It also is interesting to note that the keynote of Earth is BEAUTY. Many of the communications from extraterrestrial beings during recent years have emphasized that Earth is one of the most beautiful planets in our universe, with its great diversity of mineral, plant, and animal forms. Also, since BEAUTY is a nurturing, or mothering Virtue, this may be one reason that Earth is frequently referred to as "Mother Earth".

Yet another note of interest relates to Saturn. Within the spiritual hierarchial structure, the ruling council for our Solar System is known as the Saturian Council, and is based on Saturn. As indicated in the table, the primary Virtue of Saturn is WILL. In other words, Saturn is the focal point for plans and directives within our Solar System.
