Thanking of the Air
Date: 9 July, Saturday
Time: 10AM EST, 3PM London, 11:59pm Sydney
Location: Chatroom 2 - the Lounge

Theme: Most of us will be living in situations or circumstances where the Air is fairly safe to breathe. That has not always been the case on planet earth.
Scarely 150 years ago, coal burning was the major form of heating in many cities. And so the cumulative effect of coal burning indoors, as well as a whole city doing such, was thick, barely breathable conditions. And hence the many respiratory issues that followed.
Even today, some cities may not have the best air support. I've read that megacities in China can be plagued by smog. If one lives near a coal mining area (like Newcastle, north of Sydney), the uncovered coal trains can leave a lot of particulates in the air, as they pass through. The residents of those places notice the effects.
So clean air is taken for granted. And it should be taken for granted ... if we always respected the environment, fully. But, unfortunately, as humans have come to terms with various technologies, the air has been an unfortunate collatoral victim. Think of the destruction of the ozone layer, before the banning of CFC's. Unfortunate planetary wide consequences of the use of certain technologies. In most cases, out of naiveté, rather than deliberate malice.
And yet, what we do to our planet, we do to ourselves.

Some pertinent Ra quotes:
Air being a 'leader'
The First Entities
and the inevitable red-ray Overlap, that this Meditation will probably touch upon:

Namaste Elemental Air.

Some pertinent Ra quotes:
Air being a 'leader'
Quote:78.29 Questioner: I understand your limitations in answering that. Thank you.
Could you tell me how, in first density, wind and fire teach earth and water?
Ra: I am Ra. You may see the air and fire of that which is chaos as literally illuminating and forming the formless, for earth and water were, in the timeless state, unformed. As the active principles of fire and air blow and burn incandescently about that which nurtures that which is to come, the water learns to become sea, lake, and river offering the opportunity for viable life. The earth learns to be shaped, thus offering the opportunity for viable life.
The First Entities
Quote:9.5 Questioner: The original, the first entities on this planet— what was their origin? Where were they before they were on this planet?
Ra: I am Ra. The first entities upon this planet were water, fire, air and earth.
and the inevitable red-ray Overlap, that this Meditation will probably touch upon:
Quote:41.10 Questioner: When first density is formed, we have fire, air, earth, and water. There is at some time the first movement or individuation of life into a portion of consciousness that is self-mobile. Could you describe the process of the creation of this and what type of energy center that it has?
Ra: I am Ra. The first or red-ray density, though attracted towards growth, is not in the proper vibration for those conditions conducive to what you may call the spark of awareness.
As the vibratory energies move from red to orange the vibratory environment is such as to stimulate those chemical substances which lately had been inert to combine in such a fashion that love and light begin the function of growth.
The supposition which you had earlier made concerning single-celled entities such as the polymorphous dinoflagellate is correct. The mechanism is one of the attraction of upward spiraling light. There is nothing random about this or any portion of evolution.
