Meet eight-year-old Vishal, an autistic savant who “knows without studying.” He attends a school for autistic children, where he learns social skills rather than academics. He doesn’t have the attention span to study from books or teachers and doesn’t understand why he should because information just comes to him.

In its literal and proper meaning, occultism is the study of hidden knowledge and secret truths. One of the main purposes of the Theosophical Movement was – and still is – to point out and demonstrate that there is a universal esoteric (i.e. occult – hidden and concealed) Teaching which underlies all the world’s religions and which is in fact the archaic and primeval source of all religion, philosophy, and science.

"Theosophy is that ocean of knowledge which spreads from shore to shore of the evolution of sentient beings; unfathomable in its deepest parts, it gives the greatest minds their fullest scope, yet, shallow enough at its shores, it will not overwhelm the understanding of a child."

For the week of February 15th thru the 22nd, be sure to read your Rising Sign as well:

Horoscopes: February 15th thru 22nd A lot is happening this week. For some it will be about Chiron entering Aries. For others about the Saturn/Neptune sextile. And some will be feeling that illuminative Full Moon on the 19th. Check out the horoscopes to see what the week has in store for your sign.

On Monday, February 18th, Chiron enters Aries where it will remain for the next 7-8 years. When slow-moving planets, or Centaurs as the case may be, change signs we notice a shift in the atmosphere.

Chiron enters Aries on the Full Moon We are now preparing ourselves for the next grand transition: Chiron enters Aries just before the Full Moon. And the Full Moon itself is illuminating Uranus which will soon change signs as well. Meanwhile the inner planets Mercury and Venus are highlighting the Saturn/Neptune sextile, making it pers

THEOSOPHY teaches the progressive development of everything, “worlds as well as atoms,” this according to The Secret Doctrine. The "stupendous development," the Sages taught, "has neither conceivable beginning nor imaginable end." To Initiated Seers our universe, while full of important information, is "only one of an infinite number of Universes, all links in the great Cosmic chain of Universes," Theosophy says.

"THE astral life of the earth is young and strong between Christmas and Easter. Those who form their wishes now will have added strength to fulfil them consistently." (H. P.

SOUL memory according to Theosophy is referred to as 'reminiscence,' and it is this kind memory that assures every human being, whether they know it or not, of their having lived before, and having to live again. To fully grasp the idea, we first have to study the complex relationship between the human and transcendental aspects of mind (represented physiologically by the brain's left and right hemispheres.)

HERE'S what H. P. Blavatsky wrote concerning the expansion of the universe. We compare it with what our modern physics has to say. In The Secret Doctrine, to counter what was being forced on the world as the 'standard scientific model' for the origin of the universe, she put forward the following occult explanation: "The expansion 'from within without' of the Mother, called elsewhere the 'Waters of Space,' 'Universal Matrix,' etc., does not allude to an expansion from a small centre or focus, but, without reference to size or limitation or area, means the development of limitless subjectivity into as limitless objectivity.

THE Myth of Er is a legend that concludes Plato's Republic (10.614 – 10.621). The story includes an account of the cosmos and the afterlife, Wikipedia notes, that greatly influenced religious, philosophical, and scientific thought for many centuries. At seventeen, even Aristotle joined Plato's Academy in Athens and remained there until the age of thirty-seven (c. 347 BC). What he learned is passed on to us in modern Theosophy: No one, however gross and material he might be in this life and thought, can avoid leading a double existence in reality – one life is lived in the visible universe, the other plays out in the invisible.
