The year so far has been intense and has gone by at a quick pace. Even though there may be chaos in the world, we are traversing through this period quickly. This is an advantage, as we do not have to go through the difficulties for extended periods. But we also have to be cautious, as being unaware can mean that we miss the opportunities provided without even realizing it.
July and August were fantastic energetic months. September too will be full of special energies and we will receive guidance and blessings from various Divine Personalities. Such occasions are precious opportunities and it is important that we make use of them. Each month is galloping, one after another, and we can easily miss the opportunities if we are not alert. Make the best use of such occasions.
We can also use the special period to place our prayers to the Divine and seek answers and solutions. For the prayers that have not been answered in a long period, try to contemplate and delve into why the solutions are not manifesting. Try to address the root cause and channel your efforts in addressing them. You will reach a solution more quickly. The energies will also help more efficiently.
Irrespective of how hard your life is, practice Gratitude. Being grateful helps you to identify your privileges and comforts, and connects you to the positive aspects of your life. The more you identify these in the outer world, your Inner too will expand.
Make expressing gratitude a part of your daily habits, along with deep-breathing and experiencing Light.
Pitru Paksha this year will be very fruitful. The Pitru Devatas will assist humanity in a larger capacity and we can receive guidance from our ancestors and take help in balancing our life. We can also utilize the period to understand more about ourselves and open up further for transformation.
Connect to Mother Earth often. Be open to receiving from Her and absorb as much as you can. Connecting to Mother Earth also helps in understanding the present period and her energies will greatly reduce our hurdles and turmoil during this period. We will also be easily able to connect to the knowledge, wisdom and energies required during this period through Her.
Also, do not forget to connect to 2021 Purusha and Shakti whenever you can. These Personalities will help you to get recharged, rejuvenated and cope up with the remaining months of the year.
The Special days of September are—
6th Sep — Amavasya
Amavasya is usually the day when we can easily connect to our ancestors. This is done with the help of special Beings known as the Pitru Devatas. These Beings convey our messages, prayers and energies to the ancestors and bring us back messages and blessings from them.
Last month, Lord Kalki has specially requested the Pitru Devatas to help humanity further and be more involved. This is mainly because most of the cultures across the world believe in connecting to their ancestors for help and guidance. This process will now enable us to clear many of the ancestral issues in a much faster way as well in getting better guided by our ancestors.
On this New Moon Day, we will have the energies of the New Moon and that of Lord Krishna. It will be a wonderful day for Meditation and Internalizing. Do not miss connecting to your ancestors (through the Pitru Devatas) and taking the help of the special energies.
You can pray for strength, hope, and healing. Also, pray for righteousness and Light on Earth.
Lord Kalki will also release many Pralaya related energies to the Earth on this day. It will make the ongoing period tougher, but it is required for the hidden darkness to surface and for more issues to get exposed.
Practice the following technique on the occasion of Amavasya—

Before beginning meditation, first connect to the energies of Amavasya and tune to them. Try to be open to receiving any message, guidance, or even energies that you may receive. Then begin with the technique.
Imagine bright-Blue Light coming from above and dark-Green Light coming from your respective ancestors and allow these to fill you. Experiencing for some time.
After that, extend the Light to your karmas, runas and your shortcomings and imagine these aspects to get filled with the Light. Let each of the aspects absorb the Light and dissolve into it. Keep experiencing.
Repeat the mantra “Om Nava Amavasya Shaktiyai, Pitru-Karma Brahmaya Namaha” silently.
9th Sep — Worship of Devi Gowri
Devi Gowri will be present on Earth on this day. Devi Gowri is all about balance. She can rule the Universe with Love and kindness and also destroy negativity when required. The Rishis describe her as the Personality who can lift the weight of the Creation in a Divine, beautiful and graceful manner.
Generally, the energies of Devi Gowri are very nurturing and healing and full of unconditional love. Her energies also contain strength, equality, righteousness, and justice.
The Rishis are already busy preparing for her visit to Earth. During this period, she will gift Lord Kalki a very precious Gem and a lot of preparations are required for this.
Devi Gowri will also be anchoring various energies and this time, she will be embracing Earth and passing a lot of Love.

During this visit, Lord Ganesha will bring special energies required for Lord Kalki’s mission. These energies are very potent and have to be stored in special containers. (Such containers are generally in a form of a pot (kumbha). When Devi Mahalakshmi was present on Earth last month, she and Lord Kalki built many such containers especially for this purpose)
Lord Ganesha will also assist the Rishis in dealing with various issues affecting the world at large.

11th Sep — Rishi Panchami
This day is dedicated to honouring the work of the Rishis for their selfless service and unconditional love towards God’s Creation. On this day God will reward and give them a lot of gifts.
It is an important occasion each year, but as the nature of the Rishis goes, it is kept low key and underplayed.
The Rishis are the Guardians of the Creation. We can relate to the Rishis in various ways— as Spiritual guides, teachers or our Spiritual parents. This is the day to express our love and gratitude to them, especially for their selfless and unconditional service to humanity and the guidance they provide to us.
The more we connect to them and experience them, the more we can learn and understand them. When you sit for Meditation, be as open as possible. Do not allow any of the old learnings to limit you. Be blank and willing to receive and absorb.
The Rishis on Earth will gather at Lord Kalki’s place on this day. Lord Kalki expressed his highest regards and gratitude for the Rishis as they are the pillar and backbone of his work, without which he will not be able to execute his work. The Rishis too, are looking forward to spending time with Lord Kalki.
