Course XXXIX - Teaching 12: Rounds
When a planetary system reaches its complete spiritual development and ends its Round, it becomes a Potential Planetary Wheel, which gives life to other seven Planetary Wheels, which are stars of zodiacal system that influence their Planetary Wheels.
Periodically, Heavenly Hosts animate, rule over and inhabit these planetary systems, or wheels, and the Divine Incarnation vivifies them.
These Hosts successively leave their power and action from the one to the other Wheel, in accordance with its progress and development, like the Divine Incarnation successively illuminates all Rounds by means of Her presence.
What is vastly and immensely repeated in the Planetary Wheel, also is repeated on a lower scale in Solar Wheels and in Rounds of Planets.
The Mother Mass of the system launches a part of itself into the magnetic field of the system. As soon as this force rightly or wrongly finds its place, becomes disintegrated, and its disintegration forms a potential centre that, by self-activation, gives life to the planet animated by its related Hosts. This occurs with the fundamental planets because other take form from planets that already are disintegrated, along with other planetary detritus that again take form.
Once the planets end their Round, enter a potential state whose duration is equal to that of its development, and later become disintegrated.
Other planets, by lack of a right development, become disintegrated at once, but always to form with their remainders new planetary bodies or asteroids.
Every planet has seven bodies or globes, and just one of them –the physical body, or globe– is exposed to men. So, for instance, eventual auric dwellers of the astral globe just are able to perceive their similar astral dwellers.
Once the planet ends its Round, the Hosts deliver their spiritual forces to the planet that begins its Round, and so on.
Since the Rounds of the planets sometimes interfere, the Hosts slowly leave their spiritual forces to these planets.
Also, every globe, after its period of development, pass the power of the Hosts from the one sphere to the other, of their own planet, and during every change there is a period of potential rest, while transmitting the remaining force to the next subsequent planet.
Every sphere has seven periods of potential rest during its evolution.
So, for instance, the spiritual globe delivers 90 % of its forces to the globe of the intuitive mind, and 10 % to the spiritual globe of the subsequent planet. Of course, if the spiritual globe delivered all its force to the globe of the intuitive mind, the latter would become at once a spiritual sphere.
