Before ending this discussion—which, after all, seems a daring one in our time—we should note that most of what is presented today in this area is the purest dilettantism and pure superstition. As far as the world at large is concerned, the true science of these things has largely been lost. Therefore, the principles presented here should not be judged according to the claims of modern astrology, which is highly questionable.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture Three","site_heading":null,"date":null,"location":null,"word_count":87,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/15/l03/p026","alignment_confidence":"high","alignment_reason":"beads:length","two_voice_volume":false,"translation_credit":null,"edition_coverage":{"de":["original"],"en":["AP1992","ASGB1921"]},"available_versions":[{"lang":"de","edition":"original","edition_basis":null,"is_original":true,"is_default_edition":true,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/15/l03/p026"},{"lang":"en","edition":"AP1992","edition_basis":null,"is_original":false,"is_default_edition":true,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/15/l03/p026","paragraph_aligned":true},{"lang":"en","edition":"ASGB1921","edition_basis":null,"is_original":false,"is_default_edition":false,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/15/l03/p026?edition=ASGB1921","paragraph_aligned":true}],"german_anchor":{"de_prefix":"l03","de_passages":[{"locus":"GA 15/l03/p016","url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/15/l03/p016"}],"bead_confidence":"high","pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false,"length_check":{"de_words":184,"en_words":161,"ratio":0.88,"partial":false},"correspondence":"established","note":"English passage numbering is edition-relative, so the same number need not name the same paragraph in the German.

Einem Menschen ist ein bestimmtes Horoskop zugeordnet, weil in demselben sich die Kräfte ausdrücken, die ihn ins Dasein geführt haben. Wenn so zum Beispiel im Horoskop der Mars über dem Widder steht, so heißt das, daß gewisse Widderkräfte nicht durch den Mars durchgelassen werden, daß sie abgeschwächt werden. Es wird also der Mensch in das physische Dasein hineingestellt, und das Horoskop ist das, wonach er sich richtet, bevor er sich hineinbegibt in das irdische Dasein. Es soll diese Sache, die ja in unserer Gegenwart so gewagt erscheint, nicht berührt werden, ohne darauf aufmerksam zu machen, daß fast alles, was in dieser Richtung jetzt getrieben wird, der reinste Dilettantismus ist - ein wahrer Aberglaube -, und daß für die äußere Welt die wahre Wissenschaft von diesen Dingen zum großen Teile ganz verloren gegangen ist.
