The Soul Star Activation Protocol

The Soul Star Activation Protocol was nearly lost to the world of the 21st century. A metaphysical technology passed down from Tibetan Master Djwhal Khul to Theosophical Society founder Helena Blavatsky to esoteric writer Alice A. Bailey, it was preserved in The Rainbow Bridge published in 1975. It explains in elegantly simple detail how to build connection with our higher self beyond the world of form, expanding our consciousness, creativity, and magical capacity in the process. Inspired by The Kybalion, a book of Hermetic principles authored by three anonymous initiates, The Rainbow Bridge was anonymously published by two dedicated students of Theosophy and the transmission of this sacred knowledge continues.
The Rainbow Bridge describes an energetic thread “or vibration between states of consciousness” connecting our Earthly consciousness in third density to the totality of our soul’s consciousness beyond form. This thread is like a low-bandwidth data stream between worlds, that can be expanded by consciously working with this connection. The more data moving through the connection, the higher our state of consciousness and the more broad our capacity to respond to stimulus is. As it expands through effort, it hits critical mass,the bandwidth is suddenly expanded exponentially, and the connection is no longer a low bandwidth thread, but what the authors refer to as a “rainbow bridge”. When this happens, our soul star is activated.
“As consciousness moves from point to point or level to level from Earth upward, man’s nature changes even though his form appears to be the same; in reality it becomes more refined in the substance and energy of which it is composed. There comes a time when centers above the physical body are touched, and man finds himself in a state of being which, although new, seems to be the very essence of his being and somehow, strangely and wonderfully the essence of all being,” the introduction states. “At first there appears to be no difference in his outer vehicles or life, but, in time, he becomes something different, and he does not need to die to experience Heaven. Such experience is one of the goals of all occult teachings and practices.” When the centers above the physical body become activated, so does our soul star.
Master Djwhal Khul’s protocol has four qualifying requirements to build this connection and activate their soul star. Khul believes undertaking this work requires integration of the following principle beliefs into our consciousness before beginning the protocol:
The is one all inclusive, original source of consciousness also known as God, Intelligence, the Absolute, etc.
There is a law of rebirth, reincarnation or cyclic return.
Karma is a law of cause and effect we all live within.
There is a law of unification on the path of return from form back to the original source of consciousness, all souls are part of the one soul.
Once the above tenets are accepted and integrated, students may begin the Soul Star Activation Protocol. The soul star, the book tells us, is a bright, white indicator light that sits about 6 inches above the top of our heads and can be seen by energetically sensitive people when the data stream between our human and higher selves sufficiently expands. Activating it requires us to consciously build the connection within our physical and energetic bodies, referred to as the “central channel.” This channel runs through our heads and into the Earth. Those who are called to this work have at least a minimally activated soul star, and consciously engaging with it will begin the activation.
“Activating our soul star burns off so much psychic debris, as well as that accrued through traumas and the stress of daily life.”
To begin the Protocol, we must speak or sing the following soul mantram:
I am the soul, I am the light divine, I am love, I am will, I am fixed design.
The final phrase refers to the idea that our soul makes a plan for the lessons they need to learn in every incarnation, in order to reap the most benefit of being in form. The soul and personal self’s objectives are not the same, but part of this work is to begin identifying with the soul as much as possible. After vocalizing the soul mantra, the protocol begins by fixing our attention on our soul star and using triangulation to consciously move the star at a 45 degree angle in front of our forehead. Next we inhale to consciously move our soul star to our third eye, then exhale to move it along the pathway of the central channel and back to its resting place six inches above our heads. The conscious movement of our soul star is in the shape of a triangle.
“By this mental direction of energy, a student is enabled to clear away a channel for the continuous flow of spiritual energies through the lower vehicles or bodies,” the book says. “This is a slow and gradual process because it must be done under control and without haste or carelessness.” Students are advised to begin working just with the single triangulation through the third eye, practising l daily for at least two weeks before adding the second triangle, which moves the soul star just as before at a 45 degree angle in front of the throat then brings it back into the body and up the central channel. With each new triangle, spend two weeks practicing before moving on and introducing more. It takes four months to develop a central channel that fully utilizes the protocol, and the final two triangles through our feet into the Earth must be completed from a standing position.
Activating our soul star burns off so much psychic debris, as well as that accrued through traumas and the stress of daily life. After each session working the protocol we must clean our energy bodies using what’s called the ‘spiritual whirlwind’. You imagine and concentrate on a tornado-like energy coming down above our heads and into the Earth, moving clockwise to remove all psychic debris. This part of the exercise should be performed for at least three minutes and be included as part of the protocol for those first four months. After that, the spiritual whirlwind may be used as needed, but most of the debris can be burned off in those early months through diligent practice. Recognizing when the whirlwind is no longer necessary is part of becoming more energetically sensitive from this training, so only individual intuition can inform the right time to remove it from the protocol.
Working with the central channel via triangulation, students typically find they don’t want to stop. Building the connection feels so good and is such a supercharge to our personal magic, most of those working with the Soul Star Activation Protocol find themselves integrating it into daily meditations and rituals. Not only does this work benefit our individual, Earthly lives, it also accelerates the evolution of planetary consciousness. “Effects increase with time, application and progressive purification,” the book promises, and as alignment with our soul increases, so does our personal and collective enjoyment of the human experience.
