Orange ray

The second energy center — the self as an individual, and its power in one-to-one relation with others.

What Ra means

Orange ray is the center of individual selfhood and of personal power over other-selves taken singly. Ra traces its roots to second density, where the primitive consciousness limits orange ray to an expression of self seen as movement and survival (41.14). In third density the possibilities expand greatly, but so do the distortions. In its negative use, orange ray becomes the will to treat other-selves as non-entities — as objects, slaves, or chattel — giving no status to another (32.2). Balanced, it is the healthy activation of self-regard and personal vitality that allows the entity to move forward.

Orange ray and yellow ray often work together in patterns of distortion. The negative path uses a combination of both in its polarization, concentrating on power over individuals and groups alike (32.2). Blockages in orange ray that are not resolved prevent the mind/body/spirit complex from making progress toward the higher centers; Ra names it among the first three nexi that, when blocked, create continuing difficulties in the seeking of the Law of One (15.12).

In Ra's words

Orange and yellow ray as domains of individual and group power:

The orange ray is that influence, or vibratory pattern, wherein the mind/body/spirit expresses its power on an individual basis. Thus power over individuals may be seen to be orange ray. This ray has been quite intense among your peoples on an individual basis. You may see in this ray the treating of other-selves as non-entities, slaves, or chattel, thus giving other-selves no status whatever.

The yellow ray is a focal and very powerful ray, and concerns the entity in relation to, shall we say, groups, societies, or large numbers of mind/body/spirit complexes. This orange—we correct ourselves—this yellow-ray vibration is at the heart of bellicose actions in which one group of entities feel the necessity and right of dominating other groups of entities and bending their wills to the wills of the masters.

The negative path, as you would call it, uses a combination of the yellow ray and the orange ray in its polarization patterns.

The orange-ray expression in second density compared to its third-density manifestations:

However, the consciousness of the second-density beginning is primitive and the use of orange ray limited to the expression of self which may be seen to be movement and survival.

In third density, at this time, those clinging to orange ray have a much more complex system of distortions through which orange ray is manifested. This is somewhat complicated. We shall endeavor to simplify.

The appropriate true color for third density is, as you have ascertained, yellow. However, the influences of the true-color green acting upon yellow-ray entities have caused many entities to revert to the consideration of self rather than the stepping forward into consideration of other-self, or green ray.

This may not be seen to be of a negatively polarized nature, as the negatively polarized entity is working very intensively with the deepest manifestations of yellow-ray group energies, especially the manipulations of other-self for service to self. Those reverting to orange ray—and we may add these are many upon your plane at this time—are those who feel the vibrations of true-color green and, therefore, respond by rejecting governmental and societal activities as such and seek once more the self.

However, not having developed the yellow ray properly so that it balances the personal vibratory rates of the entity, the entity then is faced with the task of further activation and balancing of the self in relation to the self, thus the orange-ray manifestations at this space/time nexus.

41.14.3-11

The first three energy centers as a sequence, each a prerequisite for the next:

The steps are only one; that is, an understanding of the energy centers which make up the mind/body/spirit complex. This understanding may be briefly summarized as follows.

The first balancing is of the Malkuth, or Earth, vibratory energy complex, called the red-ray complex. An understanding and acceptance of this energy is fundamental.

The next energy complex which may be blocked is the emotional, or personal, complex also known as the orange-ray complex. This blockage will often demonstrate itself as personal eccentricities or distortions with regard to self-conscious understanding, or acceptance, of self.

The third blockage resembles most closely that which you have called ego. It is the yellow-ray, or solar plexus, center. Blockages in this center will often manifest as distortions towards power manipulation and other social behaviors concerning those close and those associated with the mind/body/spirit complex.

Those with blockages in these first three energy centers, or nexi, will have continuing difficulties in ability to further their seeking of the Law of One.
