 ===Metaphysics of the seven rays=== 

 According to Alice A. Bailey, each person has a soul ray that remains the same through all their incarnations, and a personality ray that is different for each incarnation. Each ray is also correspondent with certain Masters of Wisdom, and with particular planets, cycles, nations, etc. The seven rays are the basis for what Alice A. Bailey called New Age Psychologyshe divides everyone in the human race into these seven psychological types. 

 Bailey stated that the seven rays that reach us on Earth locally originate within the ""Solar Logos,"" i.e., the consciousness of the ""Divine Being"" of the Sun. According to Alice A. Bailey and Benjamin Creme, the seven rays are focused to the Solar Logos, through Sirius, the seven stars of the Big Dipper in the Great Bear, and the seven major stars of the Pleiades form the ""Galactic Logos,"" (the consciousness of the ""Divine Being"" of the Milky Way Galaxy), and have their ultimate origin within the mind of God. 

 On the local planetary level, it is believed by adherents of the Theosophical tradition that the seven rays are transmitted from the Solar Logos through the God of our planet, Sanat Kumara, then through the spiritual hierarchy of our planet which includes the ""Masters of Wisdom"" (Some writings term them the Ascended Masters or the Great White Brotherhood). 

 Each of the seven rays is believed to be associated with a different kind of occult energy, and a different color. 

 ===Qualities of the seven rays=== 
 The seven rays are listed below: 

 Alice A. Bailey and the Church Universal and Triumphant assign different colors and in some cases different Masters to each of the seven rays. In Letters on Occult Meditation, Alice Bailey indicates that there is no simple correspondence between the rays and these colors. The colors, Masters, and Retreats indicated here are those indicated by both Alice Bailey and the Church Universal and Triumphant. 

 According to Alice A. Bailey and C.W. Leadbeater, the Masters live in immortal bodies at a residence on the physical plane at the indicated location (although a given Master may physically travel extensively incognito to various locations, become invisible, teleport to various locations, and walk through walls, as well as influence humans telepathically and travel on the inner planes, as required by the demands of his spiritual work). 

 According to the Church Universal and Triumphant, and other Ascended Master Activities, each Master is believed to serve at a Retreat on the physical or etheric plane at the geographical location shown after their name. 

 The ""Gifts of the Holy Spirit"" of the Church Universal and Triumphant for each ray are shown. For both Alice A. Bailey and the Church Universal and Triumphant, each ray has a jewel which is believed to focus the energy of that ray, which is indicated. 

 In a section below, the characteristic magic for each ray as listed by C.W. Leadbeater.
