Revelation 1:1 · World English Bible
This is the Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants the things which must happen soon, which he sent and made known by his angel to his servant, John,
An unveiling is an uncovering of what was always present but hidden, the anointed awareness within lifting its own veil so consciousness can see itself at last. It is signified, given in signs and images rather than plain speech, because the deep things of the body and the mind travel in symbol.

ESOTERIC
An unveiling is an uncovering of what was always present but hidden, the anointed awareness within lifting its own veil so consciousness can see itself at last. It is signified, given in signs and images rather than plain speech, because the deep things of the body and the mind travel in symbol. John is the receiving mind, the faculty that takes down the vision and holds it. What must shortly come to pass is not a distant calendar of nations but the near, ripening change inside the one who is ready.
The whole account is a message the higher self sends downward into ordinary awareness, wrapped in figures so it survives the passage. It comes soon because it is already stirring in the person who can read it.
An angel: a messenger power of the higher mind that carries meaning down into ordinary awareness John: the receiving faculty in a person that takes in the vision and holds it
Esoteric lens
What have you been half seeing lately that is waiting for you to look straight at it?
The moon has been shining the whole time, the clouds were the only news. Awakening uncovers rather than adds.
The face of truth is covered by a golden lid, and the asking is for that cover to be drawn back. What is sought is not far away, only veiled.
Your work is not to go looking for love but to take down the walls you built against it. The removing is the whole task.
