The movement of the Moon, which had already severed itself from the Sun, was quite different from the movement of the present earth around the sun. The ancient Moon circled around the Sun in such a way that it always turned the same face towards it, even as the Moon to-day always shows the same side to the earth. The Moon thus turned only once around its own axis, while circling around the Sun. The Moon Beings were therefore dependent upon the Sun in quite a different way than is the case with the present earthly inhabitants. During the Moon's whole epoch of revolution around the Sun, it was always daytime on one of its sides, and a kind of night upon the other. The Moon Beings, who were already able to move about, wandered in a kind of circle around the Moon, so that they passed through one epoch in which they stood under the influence of the Moon. The time in which they stood under the Sun's influence was their time of procreation. For there was already a kind of procreation. The Moon-men could not as yet express joy and pleasure through sounds; their expressions had a more cosmic significance. The sun-epoch was the time of ardour and passion, and it was connected with a great screaming on the part of the Moon Beings, This exists to-day in the animal kingdom.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"IX.

Die Bewegung des Mondes, der ja schon von der Sonne abgeschnürt war, war eine ganz andere als die Bewegung der heutigen Erde um die Sonne. Jener Mond drehte sich um die Sonne so herum, daß er ihr immer dieselbe Seite zuwendete, wie auch heute noch der Mond der Erde, so daß also der Mond sich nur einmal um sich selbst drehte, während er um die Sonne kreiste. Daher waren alle Wesenheiten in ganz anderer Weise von dem Sonnendasein abhängig, als sie es heute auf der Erde sind. Während der ganzen Umlaufzeit des Mondes um die Sonne war es auf der einen Seite immer Tag, auf der andern eine Art Nacht. Die Wesen, die damals schon ihren Ort verlassen konnten, wanderten in einer Art von Kreis um den Mond herum, so daß sie eine Zeit hatten, in der sie unter den Einfluß des Mondes kamen. Die Zeit, in der sie unter dem Einfluß der Sonne standen, war die Zeit, in der sie sich fortpflanzten. Es gab schon damals eine Fortpflanzung. Bei den Mondmenschen gab es noch nicht die Möglichkeit, daß sie durch Töne ihren Schmerz, ihre Lust ausgedrückt hätten; was sie ausdrückten, hatte eine mehr kosmische Bedeutung. Die Sonnenzeit war die Zeit der Brunst, die aber, wenn sie durchlebt wurde, verknüpft war mit einem furchtbaren Geschrei der Wesen, und das hat sich heute noch erhalten bei den Tieren.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":253,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/100/1907-06-24/p019"}],"english":["GA 100/1907-06-24/p030"],"method":"length","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":253,"en_words":259,"ratio":1.02,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.09,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":4487,"original_word_count":4115,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"not_established","translator":null,"identified_edition":"ANS1942","book_title":"Theosophy and Rosicrucianism","publisher":null,"publisher_inferred":false,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA100/English/ANS1942/19070624p02.html","evidence":null,"reason":"source_says_translator_unknown","note":"The source page itself says the translator is unknown.
