We can recognize them by taking a look at the final stages of Saturn's development. Let us assume that the seventh cycle has reached the fourth stage of form, the physical. The human body has developed to such an extent that it can serve the angels as sensory organs that reflect their nature. At this stage, they have a kind of human consciousness, which, however, is only granted to them through the use of the senses of the human body. Higher beings work on the planet from the same orbit. They successively develop the higher levels of consciousness. At the moment when the angels also develop into such higher forms of consciousness, they can no longer make use of the human body. The consequence of this is that they leave the body. The person must die. But this means nothing other than that the physical Saturn body disintegrates before the physiognomic form of the seventh orbit develops. This physiognomic stage is therefore no longer physical at all. The planet only exists as a soul planet. The physical form sinks into the abyss. In the soul-planet the angels live in a superphysical consciousness of images. And the higher beings are active in it with corresponding higher forms of consciousness. At the moment when the angels, too, have outgrown this consciousness of images, the soul-planet must also disintegrate. In its place comes another on which the formative form is developed. But it only hovers in the world in which the earthly initiate finds himself when he dwells in the higher tone consciousness. For the same reasons, another planet develops from this planet, which belongs to an even higher world at the end of the seventh Saturn cycle. In it, the creative form of existence is realized. It has been shown that as the higher beings ascend into corresponding forms of consciousness, side planets of Saturn always separate out and have to float in higher worlds because Saturn's main form cannot accommodate such types of consciousness. But now Saturn itself is ascending to such higher worlds. The consequence of this is that every time he arrives in such a higher world, he unites with the secondary planet that is present in the same world. At the end of Saturn's seventh cycle, Jupiter, Mars, Venus, Mercury and the Sun are reunited with Saturn for this reason. Everything forms one world again. But in this One World is found the creative form of the Saturn life-power. Through this world, which has spiritualized itself in the manner indicated, is led back again to the lower stages of existence. This takes place in the evolution of the sun. In the course of its cycles, the planets formed out of Saturn emerge again. Each of them now appears only one step closer to physical existence.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"43.

Man erkennt sie, wenn man einen Blick wirft auf die letzten Zustände der Saturnentwicklung. Man nehme an, der siebente Kreislauf sei auf der vierten Formstufe, der physischen, angelangt. Der Menschenleib ist da so weit, dass er den Engeln als die ihr Wesen spiegelnden Sinnesorgane dienen kann. Diese haben auf dieser Stufe eine Art Menschenbewusstsein, das ihnen allerdings nur mit den benützten Sinnen des Menschenleibes zuteil wird. Höhere Wesen wirken aus dem Umkreise des Planeten auf denselben. Sie entwickeln aufeinanderfolgend die höheren Bewusstseinsstufen. In dem Augenblicke, in dem auch die Engel sich zu solch höheren Bewusstseinsarten entwickeln, können sie sich nicht mehr des Menschenleibes bedienen. Die Folge davon ist, dass sie ihn verlassen. Er muss sterben. Das heißt aber nichts anderes, als dass der physische Saturnleib zerfällt, bevor sich die physiognomische Form des siebenten Umlaufes entwickelt. Diese physiognomische Stufe ist also überhaupt nicht mehr physisch. Der Planet ist nur noch als Seelenplanet vorhanden. Die physische Form versinkt in den Abgrund. In dem Seelenplaneten leben die Engel in einem überphysischen Bilderbewusstsein. Und die höheren Wesen sind an ihm tätig mit entsprechenden höheren Bewusstseinsformen. In dem Zeitpunkte, wo auch die Engel über das Bilderbewusstsein hinausgewachsen sind, muss auch der Seelenplanet zerfallen. An seine Stelle tritt ein anderer, auf dem die gestaltende Form entwickelt wird. Er schwebt aber nur in jener Welt, in welcher sich der irdische Eingeweihte befindet, wenn er in dem höheren Tonbewusstsein verweilt. Aus denselben Gründen entwickelt sich aus diesem Planeten ein anderer, der einer noch höheren Welt angehört am Ende des siebenten Saturnkreislaufes. In demselben ist die schöpferische Form des Daseins verwirklicht. — Es ist gezeigt worden, dass mit dem Aufsteigen der höheren Wesen in entsprechende Bewusstseinsformen sich immer Nebenplaneten des Saturn absondern, die in höheren Welten schweben müssen, weil die Hauptform des Saturn solche Bewusstseinsarten nicht beherbergen kann. Nun aber steigt ja der Saturn selbst zu solchen höheren Welten auf. Das hat zur Folge, dass er sich jedes Mal, wenn er in einer solch höheren Welt angekommen ist, sich mit jenem Nebenplaneten vereinigt, der in der gleichen Welt vorhanden ist. Am Ende des siebenten Saturnkreislaufes sind aus diesem Grunde Jupiter, Mars, Venus, Merkur und Sonne wieder mit dem Saturn vereinigt. Alles bildet wieder Eine Welt. — In dieser Einen Welt findet sich aber die schöpferische Form der Saturnlebenskraft. Durch sie wird die Welt, die sich auf die angegebene Art vergeistigt hat, wieder auf die niederen Stufen des Daseins zurückgeführt. Das geschieht eben mit der Entwicklung der Sonne. Im Verlaufe ihrer Kreisläufe treten die aus dem Saturn herausgebildeten Planeten wieder hervor. Ein jeglicher erscheint jetzt nur um eine Stufe mehr dem physischen Dasein angenähert.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":450,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/46/46-03-43/p057"}],"english":["GA 46/46-03-43/p057"],"method":"structural_identity","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"unverified","length_check":{"de_words":450,"en_words":483,"ratio":1.07,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.09,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":15368,"original_word_count":14043,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":null,"publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Articles/GA046/English/SOL2024/46-03-43.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
