Saint Germain holds a very important position in hierarchy in this age. Not only is he the chohan of the seventh ray of freedom, mercy, transmutation and ritual, but he, together with his twin flame, the ascended lady master Portia, is the hierarch of the Aquarian age.
Each two-thousand-year cycle comes under one of the seven rays. Jesus, as chohan of the sixth ray, held the office of hierarch of the age during the last two thousand years. On May 1, 1954, Saint Germain and Portia were anointed as directors for the coming cycle of the seventh ray. On this date, Saint Germain received from Sanat Kumara the scepter of power and from the Master Jesus the crown of authority to direct the consciousness of mankind for this two-thousand-year period.
This does not mean that the influence of the ascended master Jesus has receded. Rather, as World Teacher from the ascended level, Jesus’ instruction and his radiation of the Christ consciousness to all mankind will be even more powerful and all-pervading than before, for it is the nature of the Divine continually to transcend itself. We live in an expanding universe—a universe that expands from the center of each individualized son (sun) of God.
This dispensation means that we are now entering a two-thousand-year period when, by invoking into our beings and worlds the violet transmuting flame of the seventh ray, the God-energy that the human race has misqualified for thousands of years may be purified and all mankind cut free from fear, lack, sin, sickness and death, and all may walk in the light as God-free beings.
Saint Germain is the great sponsor of freedom’s flame, while Portia is the sponsor of the flame of justice. Freedom and justice are the yin and yang of the seventh ray of Aquarius, and together with mercy, they provide the foundation for all other attributes of God to be outpictured in the seventh dispensation.
