Through what influence did a single globe split in two? It happened in the time of the domination of the Spirits of Motion, Mights, or Dynamis. For those who have already followed me in this domain, it is not new to hear that [in] the Cosmos things happen very much in the way they happen in ordinary human life. Where beings are evolving there are some who advance and others who remain behind, as many a father knows, who complains that his son in college lags behind whilst others are making good progress. We are concerned, therefore, with a difference in the ‘tempo’ of development. It is the same in the Cosmos. And through certain causes, which we shall learn later, now that the Mights or Virtutes have entered on their Mission, something came into play which is called in all Esotericism, and in all Mysteries, the ‘fight in Heaven.’ This ‘fight in Heaven’ forms an essential, and integral part of all Mysteries; it contains also the primeval Mystery regarding the origin of Evil. At a certain point of the Moon evolution the Mights or Virtutes had reached very different degrees of maturity. Some of them aspired to rise spiritually as high as possible; others again had remained behind, or at least had progressed normally in their development. Some of the Mights on the ancient Moon had progressed much further than their companions. The result of this was that these two classes of Mights divided. The more advanced ones drew out with the body of the Sun, and the others formed the Moon revolving around it.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture V","site_heading":"Cosmic Evolution Through Spiritual Hierarchies and Planetary Formation","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.

Wodurch ist ein Weltenkörper zu zweien geworden? Es ist das geschehen zur Zeit der Herrschaft der Mächte, Dynamis. Für diejenigen, die mancherlei auf diesem Gebiet mit mir schon verfolgt haben, ist es nicht unbekannt, daß im ganzen Weltenall etwas ähnliches geschieht wie im gewöhnlichen Menschenleben. Wo sich Wesen entwickeln, da gibt es solche, die vorschreiten, und andere, die zurückbleiben. Wie mancher Vater hat es zu beklagen, daß sein Sohn sitzenbleibt im Gymnasium, während andere rasch vorschreiten. Also wir haben es mit einem verschiedenen Tempo der Entwickelung zu tun. So ist es auch im ganzen Kosmos. Und insbesondere tritt durch gewisse Gründe, die wir noch kennenlernen werden, jetzt, wo die Mächte ihre Mission, ihre Funktion angetreten hatten, etwas ein, was man in der ganzen Esoterik, in allen Mysterien nennt den Streit am Himmel. Und diese Lehre vom Streit am Himmel bildet einen wesentlichen, einen integrierenden Teil in allen Mysterien; sie enthält auch das Urgeheimnis über die Entstehung des Bösen. Die Virtutes, die Mächte, waren nämlich in einem bestimmten Zeitpunkt der Mondenentwickelung von sehr verschiedenen Reifegraden. Die einen sehnten sich danach, so hoch wie möglich geistig zu steigen, andere wieder waren zurückgeblieben oder wenigstens in normaler Weise in ihrer Entwickelung weitergeschritten. Also es gab Mächte, welche ihren Genossen auf dem alten Monde weit vorangeschritten waren. Die Folge davon war, daß sich diese zwei Klassen von Mächten oder Virtutes trennten. Die Fortgeschritteneren, die zogen den Sonnenkörper heraus, und die mehr Zurückgebliebenen bildeten den ihn umkreisenden Mond. So also haben wir zunächst skizzenhaft geschildert den Streit am Himmel, das Auseinanderzerren des alten Mondes, so daß der Nebenplanet, der alte Mond, unter die Herrschaft der zurückgebliebenen Virtutes kommt und die alte Sonne unter die Herrschaft der fortgeschritteneren Virtutes.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":291,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/110/1909-04-14/p022"}],"english":["GA 110/1909-04-14/p025","GA 110/1909-04-14/p026"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":291,"en_words":328,"ratio":1.13,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.06,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":4614,"original_word_count":4361,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"not_established","translator":null,"identified_edition":"APC1928","book_title":"The Spiritual Hierarchies (1928)","publisher":"Anthroposophical Publishing Co.","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA110/English/APC1928/19090414p01.html","evidence":null,"reason":"no_translator_named","note":"Neither the lecture's own page nor rsarchive's lecture list names a translator for it.
