It can see that things are already shaped according to a certain wisdom, not merely by force, as in the case of the giants. Through what the intellectual soul is, when a person lives in this intellectual soul, they see beings around them, forms that bring wisdom into everything, that arrange everything wisely. While they usually see the giants as male, they see the formations of the intellectual soul as the formative female beings that bring wisdom into things, into the turmoil of the world. These are the “wise women” who are behind things, who are creative, who shape everything. In turn, he sees in this form his own form, when he did not yet have a consciousness soul, but already had a mind soul. These beings rule wisely behind things. And because he feels deeply related to them, humans very often feel, when they are in such an intermediate state: What I see there as wise female beings is something that is actually related to me. That is why we see the concept of “sister” appear very frequently in fairy tales when these female beings appear.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"9.

Das sind die «weisen Frauen», die hinter den Dingen wesen, die gestaltend sind, die alles gestalten. Er sieht wiederum in dieser Gestalt seine eigene Gestalt, als er zwar noch nicht eine Bewußtseinsseele hatte, aber doch schon eine Verstandesseele. Weise walten diese Wesen hinter den Dingen. Und weil er sich ihnen innig verwandt sieht, so fühlt der Mensch sehr häufig, wenn er in einem solchen Zwischenzustand ist: Was ich da als die weisen weiblichen Wesen sehe, das ist etwas, was eigentlich mir verwandt ist.
