shows to versions of the process of stratification that has led to the development of the current four kingdoms of nature in evolution. In each planetary stage of evolution, there is a segment of laggers that do not attain the full developmental potential or goal. This gives rise to, if one simplifies, a higher and lower kingdom, depending on whether the structural bodily principle (such as etheric, or astral) has been incorporated or not. This way, in each cycle a kingdom is pushed up - or down - by 'half'. Given the conditions in each planetary stage are vastly different (see left below), one should not imagine or reason about kingdoms or beings in their current form. On Old Saturn, Man was a physical seed in warmth. Furthermore, the schematics dramatically simplify, as Conditions of Life (CoL) and Form (CoF) are not shown.

On Earth's mineral CoL and physical CoF, the five epochs show (upper right) a recapitulation of all that preceeded, which ultimately, after this long evolutionary pathway, results in the current physical kingdoms of nature we know. The last upper branch is the one whereby Man waits last for the conditions to be right to incorporate the fourth structural bodily principle of the human 'I'. The souls that 'descended' earlier into bodies and under conditions that didn't allow to incorporate the human I resulted in the various animal forms (see Schema FMC00.210 and variants), the apes were last and hence closest to the human being. The animals were not able to separate from the group souls through the process of individuation as mankind.

By the end of Earth evolution, current humanity will also split and divide into an upper and lower human kingdom, based on moral and spiritual maturity, and make up two kingdoms on the next planetary stage of evolution Future Jupiter.
