When awake, our physical organization is permeated by the etheric organization. Within this, the astral organization spreads out, filling both organizations internally, so to speak. And the whole thing is in turn permeated by the ego organization, so that if we want to imagine this schematically, we can say: We can imagine the waking human being in this diagram, with the physical and etheric organizations filling him, and also something protruding about him, the astral and ego organizations, which I indicate here with a different color.

In contrast, we have the astral body and the ego organization outside the physical and etheric bodies. Schematically, I can draw this so that the astral body and the ego organization (red) now surround the etheric body and the physical body like a kind of cloud that loses itself in the indefinite, becoming larger and larger. But we cannot say that during the day, when we are awake, the astral body and the ego organization are active within us, and during sleep, conversely, the ego and the astral organization are not in the physical body and etheric body; that is not the case. We can only say: when we are awake, the ego organization and astral body work from within, dynamically leading the organs and the forces of the organs in all directions, everywhere. When we are asleep, they work from without. In a sense, just as the effects of the cosmos otherwise penetrate our senses and become the content of our consciousness as sensory perceptions and ideas, so when we are asleep we are enveloped by our astral body and our ego organization.

For example, it is peculiar that when we ingest a substance that is not part of the normal food system, namely lead, in any way, this lead always has the effect of first urging the human being to bring his astral body to the outside, just as happens in sleep. Lead actually has the effect of putting people into a state of sleep, pushing the astral body and the ego organization outward. Just imagine this vividly. People want to sleep when they consume lead. But in reality, they do not fall asleep. What happens is that the ego and the astral body are pushed out. But at the same time, lead prevents external influences from entering. Lead propels the astral body and the ego organization centrifugally outward, but it prevents the centripetal forces that act inwardly.

Sometimes, as they grow older and these effects can occur, the human organism refuses to accept these excessive external influences through insomnia. But one cannot remain in a state of insomnia. The consequence of this is that when one grows old and still has to sleep, the astral body and the ego organization, which emerge from the physical body and the etheric body in old age, absorb too many external influences and have too strong a reaction on the organism. What do we find when we grow old and still have to sleep, and the astral body and the ego organization that emerge in old age absorb too many external influences and react too strongly on the organism? We find that when we now introduce lead into the human organism, dizziness and fainting do not occur, but only the sclerotic forces are held back under certain circumstances by preparing the lead into an appropriate remedy. The astral forces from outside and the ego forces from outside, the sclerotic forces, are prevented because the person then also goes through states in which they do not fall asleep, but in which only their astral body and ego organization are driven out by the lead, while the excessive forces from outside are prevented.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":234,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/319/1924-08-29/p042","german_anchor":{"de_prefix":"1924-08-29","de_passages":[{"locus":"GA 319/1924-08-29/p040","url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/319/1924-08-29/p040"}],"bead_confidence":"high","pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["reader"],"reader_german":["GA 319/1924-08-29/p040"],"length_check":{"de_words":233,"en_words":234,"ratio":1.0,"partial":false},"correspondence":"established","note":"English passage numbering is edition-relative, so the same number need not name the same paragraph in the German.
