The Act of
1536
The Act of
Wales had been under the control of the
English Kings since the conquests of Edward I (1272 - 1307) and had been
ruled as a principality without representation at an English parliament. Some
areas were ruled by Marcher Lords (the Marches of Chester, Shrewsbury and
Hereford) with their own courts. This meant that some laws were different in
Wales to those in England.
Following the Battle of Bosworth Field in
1485 and Henry VII's (1485 – 1509) victory there the links between the two
countries became a little stronger. Henry was Welsh and many of his followers
were from Wales. Henry Tudor was born at Pembroke Castle, South West Wales
The second Tudor monarch, Henry VIII was
concerned that some of the Welsh lords were against his Split with Rome and
there was evidence to suggest that some of the Marcher Lords were harboring
English criminals. To combat this, and to protect the Welsh coast from a French
or Spanish invasion, Henry opted to take a firmer grip on the Principality and
effectively annex Wales as part of unified England and Wales state with the
same laws and administrative systems.
The Act of Union, in reality a series of
laws, meant that Wales was to be represented in English parliaments. It also
meant that English, not Welsh, was to be the first language of the country at a
time when about 95% of the people in Wales spoke Welsh. It meant that it was
almost impossible to get a government job without being able to speak English
and the affairs of state were conducted in English. Church services were conducted
in English only replacing Latin after 1551 but and it took over 30 years to
obtain a change in the law which allowed services in Welsh.
These moves presented a serious challenge
to the Welsh language and are still resented by some Welsh people today although
Welsh has survived and has enjoyed a revival in recent years.

Quotes from the Writings of
Helena Petrovna Blavatsky
The Secret Doctrine , Volume 2, Page 100
It is only by the attractive force of the contrasts
that the two opposites — Spirit and Matter — can be cemented together on
Earth, and, smelted in the fire of self-conscious experience and suffering, find
themselves wedded in Eternity.
The Secret Doctrine , Volume 2, Page 108
It is the motive, and the motive alone, which makes
any exercise of power become black, malignant, or white, beneficent Magic. It is
impossible to employ spiritual forces if there is the slightest tinge of
selfishness remaining in the operator .... The powers and forces of animal
nature can equally be used by the selfish and revengeful, as by the unselfish
and the all-forgiving; the powers and forces of spirit lend themselves only to
the perfectly pure in heart — and this is Divine Magic.

Even ignorance is better than
Head-learning with no Soul-wisdom to illuminate and guide it.

From strength to
strength, from the beauty and perfection of one plane to the
greater beauty
and perfection of another, with accessions of new glory, of fresh
knowledge and
power in each cycle, such is the destiny of every Ego, which thus
becomes its own
saviour in each world and incarnation.
