But at that time, the days and nights were much longer than today. At the time when the moon had not yet split off, whenever such a human form (already considerably condensed) was on the sunny side, there was organized into this gas-mass something of such an animal form below in the water-earth. Human and animal forms were combined so that there was a human form above and an animal form below. The upper part protruded toward the sun, but the lower parts were weaker, and the animal body joined itself to them. The upper part protruded out of the water-earth, and the sun influence, proceeding through the flower-men, worked on the inner forces of earth and moon. Because here an animal form was joined to the human body, which was then at the fish level, it was said that the sun, which illuminated the human body, stood at the sign of the Fish. The first hint of this formation actually coincided with the sun's being in the sign of the Fish, but the sun passed many times through this sign before the next formation took place. The beginning of this formation, however, was the time when the sun stood in the zodiacal sign of the Fish, and this sign received its name because beings at the fish stage united themselves with man at that time.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Seventh Lecture","site_heading":"Cosmic Evolution of Human Form Through Osiris-Isis","site_heading_note":"A heading the site wrote for this unit from a summary of it; not in the edition, and not the words of Rudolf Steiner or of the translator.

Diese Tiere entwickelten sich bis zu einer gewissen Höhe herauf durch die verschiedensten Formen; und als die Sonne eben herausgegangen war aus der Erde, da war die höchste Tierform die Fischform, aber nicht die heutige Fischform. Die Form der damaligen Tiere war eine ganz andere als die der heutigen Fische, aber sie stand auf der betreffenden Stufe der Fische. Diese haben in der Erdenentwickelung das zurückzubehalten in sich, was man werden konnte, als die Sonne noch in der Erde war. Die Erde verdichtete sich nun zu der Wassererde, und die dichtesten Gebilde, die Tiere, schwammen in dieser Wassererde. Nun trat etwas sehr Eigentümliches ein. Einige dieser Urfischformen blieben Tiere und kümmerten sich sozusagen nicht um den Fortschritt der Evolution. Einige andere waren da, die erhielten ein gewisses Verhältnis zu den Menschengestalten, und zwar folgendes Verhältnis. In demselben Augenblicke, als die Sonne herausgegangen war aus der Erde, da fing auch die Erde an, sich um ihre Achse zu drehen, so daß sie einmal auf der einen Seite von der Sonne beschienen war, ‚ einmal auf dieser Seite unbeschienen war, so daß Tag und Nacht entstand. Dazumal aber waren die Tage und Nächte wesentlich länger als heute. In der Zeit, als der Mond noch nicht abgespalten war, da gliederte sich jedesmal, wenn ein solches Menschengebilde, das damals wesentlich verdichtet worden war, auf der Sonnenseite war, an diese Gasmasse etwas von einer solchen Tierform unten in der Wassererde an. Es verband sich Mensch- und Tierform so, daß wir oben die Menschenform haben und nach unten die Tierform; so also, daß hinausragte der Sonne zu der obere Teil, der nach unten immer schwächer wurde und an den sich der Tierleib angliederte. Wir haben also dieses Hinausragen des oberen Teiles über die Wassererde; und dadurch, daß die Sonnenwirkung durch den Blütenmenschen geht, wirkt sie auf die inneren Erden- und Mondenkräfte. Weil hier eine Tierform angegliedert wurde an den Menschenleib, die auf der Höhe der Fischstufe stand, sagte man, die Sonne, die den Menschenleib beschien, stehe im Zeichen der Fische. Nun fiel ja in der Tat die erste Andeutung dieser Bildung zusammen damit, daß die Sonne auch am Himmelsgewölbe im Zeichen der Fische stand, aber sie ging noch oft hindurch durch dieses Sternbild, bis sich das nächste bildete. Jedoch der Ausgangspunkt zu dieser Bildung war der Zeitpunkt, in dem die Sonne auch am Himmel im Tierkreisbilde der Fische stand. Und von da aus, daß die Wesen auf der Fischstufe sich damals angliederten an den Menschen, bekam das Sternbild den Namen.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":443,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/106/1908-09-09/p010"}],"english":["GA 106/1908-09-09/p011","GA 106/1908-09-09/p012"],"method":"length","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":443,"en_words":434,"ratio":0.98,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.01,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":3678,"original_word_count":3628,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Norman MacBeth","identified_edition":"AP1971","book_title":"Egyptian Myths and Mysteries","publisher":"Anthroposophic Press","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA106/English/AP1971/19080909p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
