Record: listeners' notes. This text is a newspaper's or a listener's report of the lecture, not a transcript. The wording is the reporter's: do not quote it as Steiner's own words. Evidence: «Notes from Mathilde Scholl 1904–1906». The unit's own header line in the edition served.

Man's powers are developed in accordance with the signs of the zodiac and the development of the races. Man could only consciously develop these powers after he had attained self-awareness in our fifth sub-race, the race of the free personality, in the sign of Pisces, the sign of independence, where man was placed into physical existence, completely on his own two feet. Pisces is the sign that man can now move freely in the astral (the water).
