What a Magical Year It Has Been!
The recent Convocation Exercises at our meetings have focused on CONCENTRATION, CONTEMPLATION and MENTAL CREATION and I have been putting these key skills into effect. Lately, I have been attracting to myself the people, abundance and answers I seek, almost immediately, with great ease. Here's a funny, true example: I have never been a prankster but recently got the idea to put googley eyes in hidden places in my trainer's workout studio (because he's both skilled and goofy and would find them so very funny.) I then went to a grocery store and asked a worker there for googley eyes, and she took me to the cake decorating area, which was bare of googley eyes. As I checked out, the cashier asked if I had found everything, and humorously, I mentioned the missing googley eyes. He looked at me for two seconds, reached into his pants pocket and gave me a small ziploc bag of assorted size googley eyes. "I must have been carrying them around for you!" he said! How amazing, and how trivial.
Much more remarkable was the following situation: I traveled to Tanzania last year where I met a very generous Mother Superior and her community of nuns, trade school students, school children, and so forth. They gave me many beautiful things just because I visited, and I wanted to repay her. Their main source of electricity was a dam, which recently was destroyed in massive floods. It powered their main source of income, a grist mill, that used to run 24/7. She gave me the engineering specs for replacing the dam ($1 million plus dollars) and I made the committment to hit up my friends connected with big charities and see if they could do it for her. I've been working on this in the background since November 2024. First people I contacted led to nothing. I put the intention out of the forefront of my mind but it simmered on the back burner. Fast forward to April this year, when I'm visiting a friend who introduces me to one of her new neighbors. . . a woman electrical engineer connected to a massive worldwide charity who had spent the last five years working for that charity in Tanzania! I explained the situation with the nun's dam and grist mill to her, and in 25 minutes, using Chat GPT, the woman came up with a plan to totally power the grist mill 24/7 with a $40k solar power setup! A solution to the mill, much cheaper! and they could use this concept to have several solar power setups and power their community!
Now I'm reading a book called "E-Squared" which gives quick experiments anyone can do to prove the power of mental creation to themselves, although the author, Pam Grout, doesn't call it that. She "prove(s) that reality is malleable, conciousness trumps matter, and you shape your life with your mind." And that is EXACTLY what our Order teaches, and now other folks are catching on. My best wishes go out to you to unleash the Mental Creation power that is inborn in you, so that you can make your life and the lives of others so much better!
Light, Life and Love

Greetings Fratres and Sorores,
I’ve recently had the opportunity to update my perspective and adaptation to disruptions in social harmony and I’d like to share this with you for any help it may be. As you likely all know from personal experience there are times when social harmony is broken or disrupted from any of a variety of miscues, misunderstandings, mistaken perceptions, lack of discernment, or our faulty judgments or by that of others. Perhaps you or someone else made a faulty assumption or in anger made a false, though understandable, accusation against you. And there may not have been any opportunity to respond or defend yourself against it. It’s always very frustrating and usually leads to hurt feelings and relationships. What I realized from my contemplations and meditations on these occasions, is that everyone, all of us, have either imperfect perceptions, understandings, or reasonings of what occurred, or was said, and the why and how of it. There will always be, to some degree, gaps in our knowledge of what we think we perceived, or thought or realized. Sometimes we may realize this and other times we may not think such was likely. In any case, I find it useful to assume and keep in mind that we all have gaps of what we know or think we know. We do not see or experience events with the complete Cosmic Mind. Then with this seeming to be the case the concept of Sympathetic Compassion came to me as a useful attitude to have for all concerned. We are all imperfect, or we wouldn’t need to be incarnating any more. Knowing this we can guard ourselves with the forethought of maintaining and extending Sympathetic Compassion for ourselves and others in all our social encounters knowing there may be at any time imperfection and turbulence in our usually harmonious relations.
Peace Profound,
Fr. Clayton

Greetings, Fratres, Sorores and Friends of AMORC!
The Affiliated Bodies of the Rocky Mountain Pacific Northwest Region are a wonderful way to meet with other Rosicrucians and experience the fraternal aspects of our Order. We are happy to now have an active Rosicrucian Discussion Group in the SeaTac area of Washington ("thank you!" to some very dedicated members), and hope to see it grow in 2025!
Sometimes we may discuss with friends or family about our philosophy as mystics, and what membership in AMORC means to us. Some will respond “But what do mystics and AMORC do for the world?” Let us consider what our Imperator has said about this.
"…we find Rosicrucians working at all levels of society, from the humblest jobs to the most qualified professions. We can recognize them by the light they have to offer, especially in the company of others. Each in their way contributes to the raising of consciousness of humanity as a whole by their interaction with others. So the Order does not take any specific action in society, but leaves each member free to act according to their own lights. With the passing of time spent in the Order, this participation becomes more in tune with our highest spiritual understanding, the true nature of humanity, and our role as a soul personality incarnated on this planet. The raising of individual consciousness always produces results in the wider community and this, above all, is what the Order brings to society. Paraphrasing Elizabeth Laser: When you lift a single soul, you lift the entire world." – Claudio Mazzucco
Many, if not all, Rosicrucians I have met place very high value on the development of a strong attunement with the Inner Master, with its pure expression of the divine mind within us. We also value the freedom to act on this expression of the divine to increase Light in the world, to contribute to the uplifting of humanity in general. In my own career as an engineer and director in a high technology company, it was rare to meet a coworker who understood and valued these principles. Usually, my passing comments about the mystical were met with skepticism or scorn. So I learned to work silently in the Service of Light, and to listen carefully to others so I might find those of like mind that we might work together. I can say with certainty that the mystical principles and ideals of the Rosicrucian student are effective everywhere we apply them, even when surrounded by skeptics (if we are humble and in harmony with natural law). It is not necessarily that mystical or alchemical principles can make projects or technologies thrive on the material plane (they can and do), but in humbly demonstrating the principles there is a sort of proof that what we claim to be true is, in fact, true. This, more than material results, is what others see and remember. Some few of my colleagues even expanded their interests more into the mystical. And they, too, did so silently, watching and waiting for those with whom they could share in this work that we mystics value so highly.
I hope that your works bring you fulfillment, and that some of those you meet will be lifted by your quiet Service to humanity.
Sincerely and Fraternally,
Bill Hallett

This month we'll begin with a visit to the Vietnamese Nam Quang Temple (members and friends invited) and then end the month with a Convocation Experiment on Vibroturgy at the Frog Pond Grange. After the Temple tour, we'll grab bites to eat at local eateries and socialize. The Temple is where we'll be holding the Sound Healing weekend in May, so it will be nice to be familiar with the site ahead of time.
What is Vibroturgy, you may ask? Its the Rosicrucian term for picking up vibrations from things worn by others. We'll have items that belong to people unknown to the members, and we'll use the Rosicrucian technique taught in this exercise to get insights into who owns the items and what their personality is like. This exercise is for Members only, and it is one of several practical skills that a Rosicrucian student should have in their metaphysical toolbox.

We've been having a lot of fun at our meetings, and more fun is on the way. We've been meeting and greeting new members and their friends, finding out similar likes and hobbies. Sunday, March 9th, 2 pm, Parkrose Lodge join us for the movie Mystic Maya and a sharing of Mayan artifacts from our Frater "Chaz". This meeting is open to members, friends and family of members. There is no charge for this event, but you may wish to leave a donation (AMRA) with us to help us keep the doors open and these events happening.
This February is the last month before the Rosicrucian New Year will be celebrated on THURSDAY, March 20th, 2pm, at Parkrose Lodge. This celebration is where we have a highly symbolic little feast as part of the ritual, install new ritual officers, announce new committee members, and lay out plans for the coming year. Then we join for an abundant sharing of refreshments (and you can bring wholesome beverages and refreshments to share!)
We have settled on a location for the Sound Healing Workshop, and the dates will be May 3rd and 4th, so save those dates. We'll post more information on this web page, our blog page, our facebook pages and by email, so don't say we didn't tell you!
And the world premiere documentary movie made by our former Grand Councilor Jean Donohue that we showed back in January has now been accepted at the Cannes Film Festival! Congratulations Soror!
The second Mystical Rose Study Group will happen on March 4, 2025, 6:30 -8 pm and will discuss the plate named "The mountain of the Adepts" in Secret Symbols of the Rosicrucians. You can download that book at https://www.rosicrucian.org/secret-symbols-of-the-rosicrucians. This is open to AMORC members only.

Greetings Fraters and Sorors and inquiring friends!
The year 2025 will be significant in many ways, one key one being that we'll have many more activities that non-members can join. We'll have rare activities that very few people are privileged to attend, such as the West Coast Premiere of 'Love Thru Darkness". Join us on January the 5th for this unique presentation created by a Rosicrucian Soror.
Our meetings have social hours afterwards, with refreshments, and often we find ourselves discussing questions we have about our studies, or sharing with each other which new metaphysical skills we're working on. We are supportive and curious and welcoming.
We are planning a bigger and more excellent Sound healing retreat in May and a more local celebration of the summer solstice, (not up at the Stonehenge Memorial in Washington). We are also planning to show more mystically themed movies and have more mystically inclined outings. Do join us!

Greetings Fraters and Sorors!
We have been very pleased to welcome a few new members at our meetings. The tradition states that after a new member has attended a Pronaos Convocation three times, they should request to be initiated into the Pronaos.
At this moment we have one person who has attended three times and two who have attended one time.
There are two Convocations in October, on the 13th and the 27th and one in November, on the 10th.
It would be so wonderful if we had three people to initiate later in January!
To request that you receive the Pronaos Initiation, please write an email to that effect and send it to oregon@amorc.rosicrucian.org, and we will begin the joyous process of preparing for the Initiation.

WHAT AN IMPACTFUL EVENT! Let’s make more peace!
The 2024 Peace Ceremony was held at the Stonehenge replica, which is a WW1 War Memorial.
The day was windy! Look how her hair was blowing straight back! We assembled inside and some sat before the altar, while I officiated, reading out the ceremony, which includes the Rosicrucian Contribution to Peace , which I encourage you to download and read often.
While reading these words, despite being buffeted by the winds, I felt mysteriously grounded, and I definitely felt the thoughts and prayers of sorors and fraters who couldn’t attend and who said they’d be meditating along with us at the appointed time. A soror in Seattle had sent me a notice that there were worldwide meditations for peace, in addition to our Rosicrucian ones, and that we’d chosen a powerful day and time. A frater, recently recovered from a serious operation, was shuddering as the ceremony began, and the shudders stopped.
After the ceremony we had a psychic picnic by the riverside. With no coordination of menus, we brought fruit, breads, salads, hot dogs, corn, chips, waters, seltzers, everything in abundance and shared. Not one but two gifted musicians played their hand pan drum in the replica and down by the river. One brought their double flute and another their crystal singing bowls. A photo album or two will be shared on our blog site , within a week.
Please join us every day for the Council of Solace meditation, and daily send peace into the world!

My chosen theme for this Rosicrucian year 3377 (which began March 2024), is Love and Nature. We took a questionnaire at the 100 year celebration, and the results were that members wanted more experiences, (like the meditation in the woods and tour of Champoeg State Park), more experiments, and more experiences in nature. Also, we are going to have more activities for both members and non-members. Of note, we are having a special guest this May, (suggested by one of our sorors) who will introduce us to the meditative practice of Kirtan singing and to Bhakti yoga.
One of our members wonders if there are fraters and or sorors who would like to carpool with her to a mystical weekend at Rosicrucian Park. If you are interested, respond to this email at oregon@amorc.rosicrucian.org and I'll forward your contact information to her.
We have a subcommittee now planning what we are going to do for our annual Peace Day celebration. We sent out a questionnaire in the email regarding this, asking which place you would prefer that we meet, so please let us know your answers within the next week. Thank you.
Please make it a habit to check our website and our blog page for updates about every two weeks! And look for our events on the Rosicrucian Community site or our Facebook and Meetup pages..

At this time of year, Rosicrucian groups around the world are preparing for our New Year celebrations. If we were going to change officers, we would have the ceremony installing them at this time, but our current officers are willing to serve another year so we won't have that ceremony. But also, our Pronaos is growing by leaps and bounds and we will be having two initiations into Pronaos membership in the coming months, as we can only initiate five candidates at a time.
If you have attended our Pronaos convocations three or more times and are not yet initiated into our Pronaos, contact us at Oregon@amorc.rosicrucian.org and request the initiation. Note: these are NOT Degree initiations which can only be provided in Rosicrucian Lodges.
And more good news! The Sound Healing two-day workshop was a success! A terrific feeling of camaraderie and fellowship developed. Attendees pitched in, made coffee, cleaned dishes, and helped each other. Lots of hugs were exchanged.
The couple who drove from Boise, Idaho said they had been SO missing such mystical companionship, as did the woman from Grants Pass, Oregon.
The young man by the name of Shain, who has given us permission to feature him, from Eastern Washington, brought his custom-made hand pan drum and his dual-chamber handcrafted flute and played them sweetly during our meditations and breaks. He reviewed the weekend by saying: "What an amazing and diverse group of people! I wasn't sure what to expect for my first in-person meeting with my Pronaos, but I was pleasantly surprised by how immediately comfortable I was. [This allowed me] to bring attention to myself with my handpan. I had a deep desire to play for my people. If you haven't had the opportunity to fellowship with other members... it is LIFE CHANGING. The vibrant energy and Love emanating from this group experience is still STRONGLY permeating my day-to-day self. My gratitude has no words. Thank you all Enneadic Star Pronos. Thank you very much Master Anjala! Thank you so much Courtney for your study and sharing!" He can be found in YouTube @Patchwork_Panner

Courtney’s presentation on Sound Healing was precise, erudite, and understandable: simply outstanding! Her examples were very meaningful and the discussions were elevating and informing. She said she’s willing to do a another Sound Healing members-only live series in Spring of 2025 (for those of you who weren't able to attend) and it will contain additional material that only members can be taught. We shared energy in a Reiki healing circle the first day and that braced us all for the rest of the event.
We had a Mediterranean catered meal to close the weekend, featuring omnivore, vegetarian and vegan offerings, with enough for folks to take home.
We will have several more in-person, open events and experiences, so watch this space and read the emails we send you!

The World Convention of Rosicrucians in Montréal was last month, and over a thousand Fraters and Sorors met in FRATÉRNITÉ. For me, it was a chance to reconnect with Fraters and Sorors I first met on Rosicrucian tours abroad; the 6'5" inch African Frater I first met when we shared a cab in Kathmandu; the Florida frater who helped me with my What's App settings in Italy, and a 5'4" Soror I toured with who is now a Grand Master of her region.
Some of the presentations by Grand Masters were extremely scientific, (like the one where the Grand Master used quantum physics to explain how H. Spencer Lewis and his team of trained volunteers created the Celestial Sanctum, I thought it was nerdy and marvelous!) and some were mostly musical. Look for the content of those presentations to be presented in an upcoming Rosicrucian Digest.
It was mentioned that it was difficult for a lot of African members to obtain visas and travel, so a future World Convention will be held in Africa! Also, the next one will be held in Panama City! So brush up on your Spanish and make sure your visas and passports haven't expired.
I and the other volunteer officers who make this Pronaos flourish, could use a few people to do a few specific volunteer tasks, specifically,
We need a web volunteer to update this site. Familiarity with Google Sites is needed. We have a group of friendly web volunteers nationally who have created guidelines and training, so it isn't a steep learning curve.
We also need a web volunteer who will make two or three postings twice a month. These posts will show up on the Rosicrucian Community site and on the Rosicrucian.org site. Again, there's training online and folks to answer your questions!
And someone who will work with the Master to create email updates that will then be sent to the Regional Grand Councilor for distribution.
These could be done by several people, or one or two, but send me an email at oregon@amorc.rosicrucian.org and let me know if you're interested!

We put on our sacred rituals and experiments because we want our members to gain greater vitality, skills and understanding. This year we are offering many experiences and ritual experiments for members, and also many fun events for members and their non-member friends. We will meet in nature and learn new skills. Keep checking our calendar here and our MeetUp page for updates!
Also, If there is a Rosicrucian topic or skill that you would like us to explore in depth, write to me at Oregon@amorc.rosicrucian.org with your request or thoughts.
