Record: mixed sources. This volume draws on more than one kind of record (transcripts, notes, documents). Check the volume's own front matter before weighing a single passage. Evidence: «Niederschriften und Vorträge aus den Jahren 1903 – 1906» (Written texts and lectures from the years 1903 to 1906). The publisher's description of the volume, as mirrored on AnthroWiki (GA 89). The translation is the maintainer's, not a published one.

Imagine a particular entity has turned its back on evolution on some plane or other, going its own way. It would fall into the eighth sphere and would have to wait there until the whole of evolution has gone round. It could only be taken along again, as lowermost entity, in the next evolution. This cosmic ‘compass rose’ (Fig. 24) shows the opposites very well.
