Zarathustra has requested that his decree 0.06, “O Mighty Threefold Flame of Life,” be given daily for six weeks prior to Christmas each year. It can be substituted for the “Heart, Head, and Hand Decrees” in your morning decree ritual. Give it nine times with great fervor and intensity in preparation for the celebration of the birth of the Christ in you and all Lightbearers on Christmas Eve. | Zarathustra has requested that his decree 0.06, “O Mighty Threefold Flame of Life,” be given daily for six weeks prior to Christmas each year.

The ascended masters teach that everyone on earth receives a yearly [[final exam]] at summer and winter solstice. [[Lord Lanto]] warns us to prepare for the winter solstice exam. He says: | |||
<blockquote> | |||
You have been told that at winter and summer solstice you receive final exams. Each year you must prepare for those exams. The Christmas season is particularly difficult because of records of ancient pagan rites and the world in merrymaking. What with the populace entering more into ... sensuality and the misuse of the sacred fire, surfeiting themselves in all manner of [[drugs]] and [[alcohol]] and sweets, it is a precarious time of the year for the devotee. | |||
Do not get caught in the vortex! For I, Lanto, am your Mentor and Guru and I tell you that many a chela has regularly failed the December tests in the name of family and [[family mesmerism]]. Therefore I warn you in advance that these failures go on your record and it does take some doing to scrub that record until you can get out that spot.<ref>Lord Lanto, {{POWref|35|47}}</ref> | |||
