Ever since ancient times, July 19 has been a sacred date associated with the manifestation of the energies of Sirius. For example, the priests of ancient Egypt built the Great Pyramid of Giza in such a way so that Sirius would always appear in the vertical corridor on July 19, on the day of the Sun God Ra and the New Year, and illuminate the entire inner part of the pyramid, where Initiations in the rays of this star would take place.

The Egyptians believed that their Gods descended from Sirius, realizing that this star plays a role of great importance in the development of civilization on Earth. Subsequently, it was closely associated with each of the ancient religions. For example, even in the Quran, verse 53:49 says that Allah, or God, is the Lord of Sirius. Similarly, Christianity has adopted much from ancient religions, having rightly identified the symbolism of the ancient Sun God with Christ.

Thousands of years have passed since those remote times, calendars have changed, and the phenomenon of precession has somewhat modified the location of celestial bodies in relation to the Earth, and yet this date still plays a significant role at the present developmental stage of humankind. This is because here it is the numerical code that is important.

The number 1 is the Divine number, and 9 is the number of Transfiguration. Together — 19 — they signify the Divine Transfiguration. Adding them together gives 10 — the number of the Human Kingdom. Here again, 1 is the Divine number, and 0 is a New Round of Origination. That is, it turns out that 19 is the number of the New World.

July is the peak of the Sun’s manifestation of Light in terms of intensity of its fire and of its energetical impact. That is the reason that the ancient cult of the Sun had rituals associated precisely with this month.

In connection with this date, it is interesting to recall the unexplained phenomenon observed by hundreds of people in Salsk, Russia, on September 15, 1989. On that day, huge squares appeared in the sky, in which it seemed as if someone had begun to draw mathematical symbols and numbers. After converting these characters to numbers and the numbers into the ancient Glagolitic alphabet, researchers found a message saying that Christ was expected to return exactly on July 19.

Furthermore, according to ancient records, every six thousand years, Sirius emits new currents that carry a renewed composition of energies directed to the Earth and to the entire Solar System. These energies further the beginning of a new stage of development.

Just as a human body renews its structure at the cellular level every seven years, so the Earth, too, transfigures its energy structure every seven thousand years. Here the number six has great significance, since the seventh stage is, at the same time, the first, though at a higher level. Thus, the seventh millennium, in which we are currently living, is the last phase of the passing cycle and the first of the coming Golden Age.

For this reason, the day of July 19 of each year of modern times is characterized with a special energy: all of humankind and the planet undergo a kind of Initiation in the rays of this mysterious star, which was worshiped by all the peoples of antiquity.

On this day, one can visit energetically powerful places — shrines and temples that attract a large number of people. After all, they were built in areas that are especially connected with the Cosmos, in order to reinforce human prayers. So, thanks to our global prayer, whether uttered in such places of power or simply wherever we happen to be, every one of us can make an invaluable contribution to the cause of Light’s triumph on Earth.
