I beg you always to remember that — I have already said that here things explained are not the result of any speculation, or of any sort of artificial scheme, but are derived from real facts, which are called the facts of the Akashic Record; and it is only later that these facts can be gathered together into a sort of system. But one question which may arise in many minds must be answered to-day: the question as to the planets which have accomplished their task. In a certain way we traced yesterday the origin of the life of a planet up to its end, up to the time when it became a separate, visible, planet. Now someone might affirm that some of these planets we see in the heavens did not originate from the time described yesterday, or are not now coming into being. We must clearly realise that a new epoch begins for a planet when it has reached that point which we described yesterday. Let us suppose we wished to follow the origin of a planet, not as it was with ancient Saturn when it alone was there, but as it was when the formation of our Earth took place. Ancient Saturn was then formed again, as a repetition; so that after the evolution of ancient Saturn, when ancient Sun and ancient Moon were all three finished, the evolution of the earth first began in the form of a huge warmth or fire-body, on which was repeated all that had happened during the ancient Saturn evolution. Then came a time when, under the influence of the Zodiacal region called the Lion, the single planet Saturn (that which we call Saturn to-day) detached itself from that mighty self-revolving globe of fire, thus reaching its highest point. It was in this manner that the single planet Saturn originated.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":350,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/110/1909-04-18/p003","german_anchor":{"de_prefix":"1909-04-18","de_passages":[{"locus":"GA 110/1909-04-18/p003","url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/110/1909-04-18/p003"},{"locus":"GA 110/1909-04-18/p004","url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/110/1909-04-18/p004"}],"bead_confidence":"high","pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["reader"],"reader_german":["GA 110/1909-04-18/p003","GA 110/1909-04-18/p004"],"length_check":{"de_words":354,"en_words":350,"ratio":0.99,"partial":false},"correspondence":"established","note":"English passage numbering is edition-relative, so the same number need not name the same paragraph in the German.

No, only the inner movements which existed formerly were then stopped. Saturn had grown into a being which drew into it all that was formerly distributed in the circumference, and united it all within itself. All this happened though the influence of the Lion; but the large globe, from which this Saturn was detached, contracted, and became a smaller globe. Whilst this whole globe contracted inwardly and after the influence (from the Lion) had been able to work and the inward motions been brought to rest, Saturn retained to a certain degree the movement which it had originally received. Formerly Saturn used its own impulse for its movements; for it was necessary for it to continue the movement; to move on further as by a swimming motion. When that globe had withdrawn, it continued to move by itself, although the inward motion was stopped. And that self-movement, after it had received the first impulse, is the movement according to which Saturn is revolving to-day.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":194,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/110/1909-04-18/p004","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/APC1928/19090418a01.html","evidence":null,"reason":"no_translator_named","note":"Neither the lecture's own page nor rsarchive's lecture list names a translator for it.

But, this is completely justified; for, with the planets of the present day, we have to do with what took place as a repetition, during the fourth evolution of the earth. When the first Saturn was formed, Saturn was there alone; during the Sun development (the second globe), the conditions were such that we have to speak of a Sun. But when after the Saturn development, the Sun developments continued, the whole process of Saturn came to an end with the Sun, so that when we look backwards at those first planetary developments of our earth, the ancient Saturn, Sun and Moon, we must realise that they were finished with once and for all. But when we speak of the Earth's development it is not so. Saturn first arises, then, by way of repetition — the Sun; but everything progresses further inwardly, it is not yet finished. Jupiter is left behind as a relic of the repetition of the Sun-development. Then the earth is a repetition of the Moon development, which — if we regard the whole of evolution — was then at an end.

For when we speak of the contraction of large masses, we must realise that this does not happen of itself, but that it is brought about by the action of those Beings of the higher Hierarchies which we have described. And when we take a general view of all that has been described, we may say: When ancient Saturn was in formation, when all that mighty mass of fire out of which all our solar system has arisen organised itself into ancient Saturn, the Spirits of Personality were passing through their human stage of existence; during the Sun formation the Archangels or Spirits of Fire were passing through their human stage; during the Moon evolution the Angels, and on the earth Man, is passing through his human existence. But it must be realised that this Man had also taken part in all that happened before. What is called the physical body to-day had its first foundations during the very earliest Saturn formation. That physical body was not as yet interpenetrated by an etheric body, or by an astral body; but it was already so organised that after passing through all the transformations it experienced later, it could become the bearer of the spiritual earth-man of to-day. Very slowly and gradually was this physical body organised during the ancient Saturn evolution, and, whilst ancient Saturn itself was being formed, the different signs of the Zodiac slowly revolved, and the human body member by member, took on its earliest form. When Saturn stood under the sign of the Lion the beginning of the heart was formed; the ribs or the thoracic cage were started while Saturn was under the sign of the Crab; the foundation of the symmetrical shape of man, that is the reason for his being symmetrically built on two sides, arose while Saturn was under the constellation of Gemini. Thus we follow piece by piece the formation of the human body, and when we look up to that part of the Zodiac, where Aries the Ram is, we can say: The upper part of our head originated when ancient Saturn stood under the sign of Aries; the foundation of our organ of speech, when Saturn stood under the sign of the Bull. And when you think of man distributed thus, you can see in the Zodiacal circle the creative forces for each of the human organs.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":427,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/110/1909-04-18/p013","german_anchor":{"de_prefix":"1909-04-18","de_passages":[{"locus":"GA 110/1909-04-18/p011","url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/110/1909-04-18/p011"}],"bead_confidence":"high","pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["reader"],"reader_german":["GA 110/1909-04-18/p011"],"reader_part":true,"length_check":{"de_words":705,"en_words":518,"ratio":0.73,"partial":false},"correspondence":"established","note":"English passage numbering is edition-relative, so the same number need not name the same paragraph in the German.

By chance — but there is no such thing as chance — we have met in a hall which is adorned above by the signs of the Zodiac. Formerly the Zodiac was not designed by depicting the animal form corresponding to each sign, but the different human members were drawn in the corresponding region of the heavens: for instance, for Aries a head; further on, for the Bull, the region of the throat; that which most of all expresses symmetry — the arms, for Gemini; the thoracic cage, for the Crab; the heart, for the Lion; and thus they came to the lower parts of the legs, for the Waterman; and to the feet, for Pisces. Think of such a Zodiacal circle as a man designed out there in the Cosmos, then you have that which corresponds to the powers of the Thrones, Cherubim and Seraphim who created the first beginnings of the physical human body. This is the great Cosmic Man, the Man who is found in all the World Myths, and all the national legends or sagas, out of whom single individuals of the earth are composed in the most varied forms. Think of the giant YMIR who is spread out in the great Cosmos; microcosmic man is formed out of this giant. Up above is the macrocosmic man who is a Creator, who, out there, comprises all that man has within him. Profound truth lies in the depths of such representations, truth which comes to light more or less imperfectly, according to the degrees of the clairvoyant power of the nations. It also shines through that wisdom which finds its outward expression in the old Testament. It shines in that wisdom which, as the old Hebrew mystery-teaching, leads back to that Mystery teaching which was the foundation of the Old Testament — to Adam Cadmon of the Kabbala.

Das ist durchaus gerechtfertigt, denn wir haben es, wie gesagt, bei den jetzigen Planeten zu tun mit dem, was als Wiederholung beim vierten Zustand, bei der Erdenentwickelung, geschehen ist. Damals, als zuerst der Saturn sich bildete, war wirklich nur der Saturn da.

Indem nun jene Kugel, die dem allerursprünglichsten Saturnzustand entspricht, sich dreht, bildet sich immer mehr und mehr das Folgende heraus. Es gliedert sich eine Art von Gürtel ab, der nicht um das ganze Ei ringsherum geht, sondern der wie eine Art breiten Bandes nur ist. Und innerhalb dieses Gürtels sammeln sich sozusagen die einzelnen Formen, die ringsherum gebildet sind. Diese Gürtelbildung ist ein ganz allgemeines kosmisches Gesetz. Unter anderem sehen Sie das Gesetz, daß alles eigentlich auf einer Ansammlung längs einer Art von Äquator oder Gürtel beruht, in dem Kosmos ausgebildet, so weit Sie ihn überschauen können, denn diesem Gesetz verdankt die Milchstraße ihr Dasein. Wenn Sie diese Milchstraße wie einen äußersten Gürtel ringsherum im Himmelsraum sehen und dazwischen spärlich die Sterne, so rührt das von dem Gesetz her, daß, sobald Umdrehung beginnt, sich die Dinge in einem Gürtel sammeln. Unser Weltensystem, wie wir es haben, hat eigentlich schon dadurch eine Art von Linsenform. Es ist nicht direkt kugelförmig gebildet, wie es angenommen wird, sondern linsenförmig, und am weiten Äquator ist der Gürtel angesammelt. Solch einen Gürtel müssen Sie sich auch bei der Entstehung eines Planeten denken. Wenn man also, trivial gesprochen, ein Ei nehmen würde und man wollte darauf die verschiedenen Zustände schematisch zeichnen, so müßte man zuerst das ganze Ei nehmen, dann müßte man auf dem Ei, mit einer roten Farbe etwa, einen solchen Gürtel malen. Nicht das ganze Ei dürfte man rot färben, sondern nur einen Gürtel. Längs dieses Gürtels sammeln sich die Körper, die ausersehen sind, den einen Weltenkörper zu bilden. An einer Stelle müßte man den Punkt hinzeichnen, wo sich alles sammelt (Zeichnung wie auf Seite 129). So sehen wir, daß die Konfiguration, die Verteilung der Sterne, wie sie im Raume um uns herum ist, ein Ergebnis der geistigen Wesenheiten oder Hierarchien ist. Denn wenn wir sprechen vom Zusammenziehen der großen Masse, so müssen wir uns bewußt werden, daß dieses Zusammenziehen nicht von selbst geschieht, sondern durch die Wirkung derjenigen Wesenheiten, die als die Wesen der höheren Hierarchien von uns geschildert worden sind. Und wenn wir zusammenfassen, was wir geschildert haben, so müssen wir sagen: Während der alte Saturn sich bildete, während also zuerst jene gewaltige Feuermasse, aus der im Grunde genommen unser ganzes Sonnensystem entsprungen ist, sich gliederte zum alten Saturn, da machten die Geister der Persönlichkeit ihr Menschendasein durch; während der Sonnenbildung machten die Erzengel oder Feuergeister ihr Menschendasein durch; dann während der Mondenentwickelung die Engel, und auf der Erde macht der Mensch sein Menschendasein durch. Dabei ist es aber doch so, daß dieser Mensch mit allem, was vorher geschehen ist, zu tun gehabt hat. Das, was wir heute physischen Leib nennen, hat seine erste Anlage während der allerersten Saturnbildung erhalten. Damals war dieser physische Leib noch nicht durchzogen von einem Ätherleib, noch nicht durchzogen von einem Astralleibe, aber er wurde damals schon so veranlagt, daß er nach den Umbildungen, die er später erfahren hat, der Träger unseres jetzigen geistigen Erdenmenschen hat werden können. Ganz langsam und allmählich ist dieser menschliche physische Leib veranlagt worden während der alten Saturnentwickelung, und indem sich der alte Saturn selber gebildet, herumgedreht hat längs der einzelnen Zeichen des Tierkreises, ist in der Anlage Glied für Glied des Menschenleibes entstanden. Wie in der Zeit, als der Saturn unter dem Zeichen des Löwen stand, wie da die Anlage zum Herzen entstanden ist, so ist die Anlage zum Brustpanzer entstanden, während der Saturn geweilt hat unter dem Zeichen des Krebses. Die Anlage zur symmetrischen Bildung des Menschen, das heißt, daß er nach zwei Seiten gleichgestaltet ist, diese Anlage ist entstanden, während der Saturn unter dem Sternbild der Zwillinge weilte. Und so könnten wir Stück für Stück des Menschenleibes verfolgen. Wenn wir aufblicken zum Tierkreis, da wo der Widder steht, so können wir sagen: Die Anlage zu unserem Oberkopfteil ist entstanden, zum erstenmal uns eingegliedert worden, als der alte Saturn unter dem Zeichen des Widders stand. Die Anlage zu unserem Sprachorgan ist uns eingegliedert worden, als der Saturn unter dem Zeichen des Stieres stand. Und wenn Sie sich jetzt den Menschen so aufgeteilt denken, so können Sie in dem Tierkreis draußen die schaffenden Kräfte für alle Menschenglieder erblicken.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":705,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/110/1909-04-18/p011"},{"locus":"GA 110/1909-04-18/p012","passage_number":12,"text":"Das hat man bildlich in den alten Mysterien so vorgestellt, daß man den Tierkreis auch so ähnlich hingezeichnet hat, wie er hier an der Decke des Saales ist. Wir sind ja zufällig, wie man sagt - es gibt aber keinen Zufall -, in einem Saale, der oben mit dem Tierkreis geschmückt ist. Man hat den Tierkreis früher nicht so aufgezeichnet, daß er in seine entsprechenden Tierformen auseinandergelegt war, sondern so, daß man die einzelnen Menschenglieder hinzugezeichnet hat zu den betreffenden Regionen: zum Widder den Kopf; weiter dasjenige, was die Gegend des Kehlkopfes ist, zum Stier; was am bedeutsamsten ausdrückt die Symmetrie, die beiden Arme, zu den Zwillingen; den Brustpanzer zum Krebs; das Herz zum Löwen; und so ist man weiter gegangen, bis man die unteren Teile der Beine zum Wassermann, die Füße zu den Fischen gezeichnet hat. Also denken Sie sich einen solchen Tierkreis als Mensch in den Kosmos hineingezeichnet, dann haben Sie dasjenige, was aus dem Kosmos, das heißt aus den entsprechenden Kräften der Hierarchien der Throne, Seraphim, Cherubim heraus die ursprünglichen Anlagen schuf zum menschlichen physischen Leib. Das ist der große kosmische Mensch, der Mensch, der durch alle Weltensagen und Weltenmythen geht, aus dem der einzelne Mensch auf der Erde herausgebildet ist in den mannigfaltigsten Gestalten. Denken Sie an den Riesen Ymir, der ausgebreitetistindem großen Kosmos, denn der mikrokosmische Mensch wird aus dem Riesen gebildet.
