Sending of Solace Templar Clergy working
You are familiar with the Sending of Solace technique and we want you to perform this clergy working often.  Lab Report: Send the School a report after performing it a few times over the period of one month. (Include in your Lab Report your “target” of healing/solace, phase of moon when performed, time of day, results/impressions, etc.).

School Wardings
And now that you are a Knight, Lady or Cleric of the R+C Templars you are required to take part in an important work: School Wardings.  We perform this rite at least once a week, you should do so on any night you choose.  There is no one specific required night each week, we let everyone choose, thus hoping that at least one or hopefully more Templars will be performing it on any given weeknight. Please send the School a Lab Report for one month’s practice of this (include data requested above).

Weekly Shielding Rite for the Defense of Esoteric Mystery School
by Sir Kathuros, Guardian of the Chapel
and Prioress Lady Katia

Brothers and Sisters of the Knighthood, on this night we gather yet again
This time not for far nation, nor political power
But to bind a Shield of Protection around our very School and all that inhabit it
Times have returned when our work of Light grows needed

[As we do in other shielding rites, face East.  This is the direction to which our planet turns and thus from whence the stellar and solar currents flow.]

Knights / Knightresses: picture yourself fully dressed for battle, standing outdoors with other combatants with your sword in its scabbard.  Sitting in a circle around you, their faces solemn with spiritual strength, are the Clerics and Daughters of Tsion.  You and your fellow combatants are standing inside the circle with your backs to each other and are facing the seated noncombatants. In a smooth deliberate motion, draw your astral Sword from its scabbard and respectfully kneel while thrusting your sword into the ground.

Lean on your weapon and bow your head as you pray the following prayer-warding:

Clerics & Ladies:  picture yourself sitting with other clerics and ladies in a circle around the combatants of the Order (who are standing as described above).  You are facing inward.  The combatants, standing,are facing outward toward you.  You have just removed your gloves and placed them neatly in your lap.  As your combatant brothers (and sisters)unsheathe their swords, take out your rosary or prayer rope, which is your tool of the trade, and hold it in your right hand. Finger the cross (or substitute, depending on your rosary/rope) and pray the following prayer-warding. Option: If you wish, you may hold a quartz crystal (and your rosary/rope)during this warding which will actually amplify your clergy working.

Warding Prayer
Heavenly Divine One above and throughout,
Divine Goddess Sophia who guides and comforts
Send us your Arch Angel Michael that he may visit our souls,
And lead us in the construction of the Shield of Light for our School
That we may continue your work through our hands
To bring your means to your ends on this Home
And protect your Temple, and your Land
We ask the power to perform this intercession, not for our glory
But for Yours
Amen

Non-Combatants: As you finish the prayer, Concentrate on building a huge ball of light and send it to the School and all its members and staff.Feel the Light flow through you and out from your hands to the School then outward in many blue lightning-like threads to all its members and staff.(Picture Highlander “quickenings”). This is very similar to the Power Base workings we interact with on the Temple Mount. Take your rosary to your forehead,nod/bow your head slightly as you make contact, and blink your eyes closed and open again in reverence.  Then touch rosary/rope to your lips. (If using a crystal, you may carry both at once to make this gesture).  Then stand and embrace your combatant partner, rendering the ceremonial tri-fold kiss, also called the kiss of peace.

Combatants: As you finish the prayer, Concentrate on building a huge ball of light and send it to the School and all its members and staff. Feel the Light flow through you and your sword to the School then outward in many blue lightning-like threads to all its members and staff. (Picture Highlander”quickenings”). This is very similar to the Power Base workings we interact with on the Temple Mount. Stand and removing your sword from the earth, bringits hilt-ball (pommel) to your forehead, then lower to your lips, and finally place your sword back into its ready position, (scabbard).  Later we march on to tackle the forces of Darkness!  Now step toward your partner and embrace him/her, rendering the kiss of peace or tri-fold kiss.

See you in Battle!
