It is extremely interesting to observe these beings returning to earth clairvoyantly. The clairvoyant perceives bell-shaped structures that shoot off in all directions at incredible speed in the astral plane. These formations are created when a person returning from Devachan surrounds themselves with new astral matter. This is a gathering of astral matter around the core of the human being, which could be compared to the following: Imagine a box containing iron filings with a magnet underneath. The filings arrange themselves according to the lines of force of the magnet. Like the magnet, the human being returning from Devachan attracts astral matter from various directions of the astral plane, and this matter arranges itself according to the nature of the human being. This state of scattering before a new incarnation lasts only a short time, usually measured in hours. The bell shape is the general form, in which all color nuances are found. In this state, the human being consists of the I and the causal body and now forms a new astral body from the astral matter, which corresponds exactly to what the human being has developed in the devachan. His entire disposition thus takes on a coloration corresponding to his transformed experiences.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture VI","site_heading":"Death, Karma, and Rebirth: The Soul's Journey Between Lives","site_heading_note":"A heading the site wrote for this unit from a summary of it; not in the edition, and not the words of Rudolf Steiner or of the translator.

Diese sich erdwärts Zurücklebenden hellseherisch zu beobachten, ist außerordentlich interessant. Bei ihnen nimmt der Hellseher glokkenförmige Gebilde wahr, die mit unglaublicher Schnelligkeit im Astralplan dahinschießen nach allen Seiten. Diese Gebilde sind dadurch entstanden, daß ein aus dem Devachan zurückkehrender Mensch sich mit neuer Astralmaterie umgibt. Es handelt sich um ein Anschießen der Astralmaterie um den Wesenskern des Menschen, das man mit folgendem vergleichen könnte: In einem Kasten seien Eisenfeilspäne, und darunter befindlich ein Magnet. Diese Späne ordnen sich nach den Kraftlinien des Magneten. Wie der Magnet zieht der aus dem Devachan zurückkehrende Mensch aus den verschiedensten Richtungen des Astralplanes die Astralmaterie an, und diese ordnet sich, wie es seinem Wesen gemäß ist, an. Dieser Zustand des Herumschießens vor einer neuen Verkörperung dauert nur eine kurze Zeit, die sich meistens nach Stunden bemißt. Die Glockenform ist die allgemeine, darinnen finden sich alle Farbennuancen. In diesem Zustand besteht der Mensch aus dem Ich nebst Kausalkörper und bildet sich nun aus der Astralmaterie einen neuen Astralleib, der genau dem entspricht, was sich der Mensch im Devachan ausgebildet hat. Seine ganze Veranlagung erhält so eine den umgewandelten Erfahrungen entsprechende Färbung.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":206,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/94/1906-07-03/p009"}],"english":["GA 94/1906-07-03/p009"],"method":"structural_identity","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"unverified","length_check":{"de_words":206,"en_words":225,"ratio":1.09,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["anchors","reader"],"reader_german":["GA 94/1906-07-03/p009"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.05,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":1589,"original_word_count":1512,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2023","book_title":"Popular Occultism","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA094/English/SOL2023/19060703p01.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.
