"The effort made during the last quarter of each century to stimulate the evolution of men through a further revelation of some part of the Secret Doctrine. Newton, Copernicus, Galileo, Harvey, and the Curies are, on their own line of force, lightbringers of equal rank with H. P. B. All revolutionized the thought of their time; all gave a great impulse to the ability of man to interpret the laws of nature, and to understand the cosmic process, and only those of circumscribed vision will fail to recognize the unity of the many force impulses emanating from the one Lodge". TCF 1038.

"This characteristic (or radioactivity) of pitchblende and the other involved units is comparatively a new development under the evolutionary law, and one which, though latent, only needed the drawing forth of the type of energy now beginning to pour in on the earth.  This force began to flow in at the end of the eighteenth century, and its full effect is by no means yet felt, for it will be several hundred years before it passes away.  By means of it, certain discoveries are possible, and the new order comes in upon it.  The Great Ones, Who know the time and the hour, will bring about, in our rootrace,that which corresponds to the occurrences in the earlier third and fourth races". TCF 717.

JC: Note the time frame of several hundred years given by AAB/DK before the passing away of the radioactive period of pitchblende Uranium, which in itself only began its period of radioactivity at the end of the eighteenth century, some one hundred years after the initial coming into manifestation of the greater seventh ray cycle.

This initial period of radioactivity is given and verified indirectly by F.E.Brückmann* as he described the mineral in 1727 A.D. some fifty two years after the initial incoming seventh ray. The outgoing period and therefore true coming into manifestation of the seventh ray of ceremonial order was from 1675 A.D. as a lesser cycle still within the waning Piscean age.

We might note that according to Stephen Pugh [www.aksdp.net/], the first sub ray period of the lesser cycle is fifty years in duration. We might therefore also note that it took the 1st ray period of fifty years for the scientific recognition of the mineral Uraninite to be apprehended and described. Five hundred years is the sub ray period of the greater cycle of the seventh ray.

M.Klaproth* in 1789 discovered the Uranium element and this time scale approximates the latter part of the second sub ray period being of the second ray and moving just into the third sub ray period of the third ray within the seventh ray cycle. This should tell us much about how the white lodge uses the timings of ray cycles with consequent revelations for humanity.

1875 marked the end period of the fourth sub ray period of the seventh ray and the beginning of the fifth ray sub ray period. It was in this fifth ray sub cycle of 1898 that Marie Sklodowska Curie and Pierre Curie discovered and announced their radioactive find to the scientific community known to us as the "scientific recognition of the new incoming seventh ray energies". DK states that the revelation and interest in the release of the energy of the atom will be initially "material in its manifestation" and we can subsequently realise that this is the case.

It should be noted that according to TCF 456, the curies also formed part of the one hundred year cycle of occult dissemination given by hierarchy every close of century and that the Curies formed one fifth of the two fifths given in that cycle. Hierarchical timing is everything and all according to the numerical spiral cyclic manifestation of  one or other of the seven ray lives.
