Project:Schema listing

From Anthroposophy

This page provides a list overview of all the Schemas on this site.

Clicking the Schema pic takes you to the enlarged Schema display. Then click the blue 'More details' button (lower right) to go the Schema page, with at the bottom of the page also the section 'File useage' with the topic pages that provide context to the Schema.

You can use the web browser functionality 'Find on page' and type any number to quickly go to that Schema; however note this also works by just typing any schema number directly in the main search box of the site.

Note: the description field is not yet filled consistently for all Schemas. For those Schemas where the field is (currently still) empty, that description does exist but it is on the topic pages where the Schema is used (instead of in the SemanticWiki database).

FMC00.001.jpgFMC00.001Evolution of principles of Manis an example of a schema that Rudolf Steiner himself presented, as a way to use schemas to capture spiritual scientific perspectives for study. It represents the different aspects of the 'I' we have today on Earth, and how this I-consciousness evolves across the stages of the solar system evolution. Note Steiner comes back to the (upper part of) this schema in the lecture of the next day 1915-01-10-GA161. Compare with Schema FMC00.036 on the I-organization and superimpose the latter on Schema FMC00.289 below.table

FMC00.003A.jpgFMC00.003AEarthly and planetary spheres and ethers - illustrationsillustrates the Earth with its inner layers or strata, and the etheric spheres or girdles beyond the atmosphere.
FMC00.004.jpgFMC00.004Interior of Earthprovides a synthetic study table, summarizing how Rudolf Steiner described the nine inner layers or strata of the Earth, and linking this to the explanatory evolutionary framework by Iwer Thor Lorenzen.

Lorenzen (1969, 1976) explains how the different strata arise as a polarity of contrary forces is working (outwards, inwards) in the solar system macrocosmos, and how the freeing of the different layers in the spirit and astral world corresponds to the formation of these strata alongside the development of the outer etheric spheres of the planets of our solar system (and the physical planets as a result of the opposing spiritual hierarchy). This is linked to the evolutionary pathway of the Earth and its bodily principles, and the 'incarnation' or development of the Earth's 'I' in stages that correspond to the development of humanity's 'I'.

It is recommended to read Lorenzen's two book references listed below to gain an understanding of what is shown in this table.

Also consider Schema FMC00.006 as related to the lectures on the Earth's evolution (eg Book of Genesis).

FMC00.021A.jpgFMC00.021ALast Supper by Leonardo Da Vinci - mapping apostles to cultural agesshows an attempt towards interpretation (by DL) of the symbolism of the apostles in Da Vinci's Last Supper painting.

It includes FMC00.169A and FMC00.020 for ease of reference. See also with Schema FMC00.021B on Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci.

Additional notes: On the right of Christ-Jesus on the painting, apostle number 7 puts the finger in the air. One might relate that with the egyptian obelisks, and the relation to the third Lemurian epoch where Man became erect. Apostle number 8 has the arms open, representing duality. One may relate this with the ancient persian cultural age where this duality arose in the culture. On the left, apostle 2 connects and puts his hand on apostle 4, this might depict that the new Sixth epoch connects with the sixth cultural age. In other words, we see an impulse being carried on, similar as what is happening on the outer right with apostles 12->11->10. Also apostle 4 himself connects with his hand to apostle 6. The intriguing element is that apostle 4 representing John is shown next to and symmetrical with Christ-Jesus (and so not in position of the sixth cultural age), whereas apostle 6 representing Peter does not stay in his place but is in movement behind apostle 5 (Judas), and we have the mystery hand and knife at his position. More on the mystery hand and knife on Schema FMC00.021E.

FMC00.021G.jpgFMC00.021GLast Supper by Leonardo Da Vinci - the two best historical copies of Da Vinci's Last Supper frescoshows the two best historical copies of Da Vinci's Last Supper fresco, that had been deteriorating quickly already decades after it was finished in 1498. These two high quality copies are nearly identical and were originally (nearly) full size canvas versions, that have been used as reference for restauration of the fresco. Studies have shown that these faithful copies were produced in Leonardo's studio by his best students within 20 years of the original, probably under supervision by Leonardo. Research has shown that (with high likelihood), the Tongerlo (Belgium) version was ordered by the King of France directly from Leonardo after seeing the original fresco (see paper by Isbouts and Brown). Its original size (462x828) was nearly exactly that of the fresco (460x880). The London (UK) version was slighly smaller and further reduced in width with the upper part cut (to the current 300x780).

FMC00.021H.jpgFMC00.021HLast Supper by Leonardo Da Vinci - several of the best known copiesgathers a number of the best known copies of the Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci from the early 16th century, all but the Vespino version dating from early 17th century. Note that though these are also famous copies, several of which were also by or attributed to students or followers of Leonardo, the interior architecture and colours are not faithful to the two reference versions and original. Also the sizes vary greatly, some are scaled like two thirds of the original, other are much smaller like 77x132 cm (Saint Petersburg) or 121 × 268 cm (Milan Brera d'Oggiono). The names used here are a combination of the city and museum (abbreviated) where the works are located, in some cases adding the artist as this is how these copies are referenced (Vespino, d'Oggiono).

At CoC-1 level there is the consciousness part of the planetary spirit or dhyan chohan, like humanity was 'part of' Old Saturn. The source lecture is from notes of an undated private lessons in the 1903-1904 period, published in GA089. Besides GA089, other such early esoteric lessons were published for example in GA091, and these contain unique material not available in later lectures or writings. Due to thestenographic nature of the notes they provide insights when meditating on with, one the student is well versed in the base concepts and materials of spiritual science.table

These moral impulses are essential to social initiatives and the development of the good in humanity.

FMC00.067A.jpgFMC00.067AConceptual infographic of the logoic principleprovides a conceptual infographic of the logoic principle. The traditional theosophical schema on the left is explained and drawn differently on the right.

The fruits of a previous evolutionary period are in-breathed back in the Logos at pralaya, and represent the seed of the next out-breathing, where it will be blended with the available soil made up of the available cosmic dust. When 'ready' at the middle of a cycle, there is a divine intervention that fructifies it with a higher consciousness.

Like a car jack, this way the logoic principle moves up creation by one level along the CoC-ladder of Conditions of Consciousness, and an extension is woven onto creation, which thereby expands in ever more complex and sophisticated forms of self-consciousness.

Above this two schemas to illustrate what is described, that Man is still in the process of individuation, and separation during incarnate life is through the physical body, but human beings are still connected at the level of the granular group souls of humanity (see green dotted rectangle) that can be imagined as being in the process of crumbling down into smaller fragments.

The lecture provides the underlying explanation for the bridge between the living and deceased souls, see also Interaction with deceased souls.

It shows how the plant and animal kingdoms evolved from the planetary stages of evolution: part of the development lagged behind and was not able to develop the next structural bodily principles, such as the astral on Old Moon, and the human 'I' on Earth.

FMC00.191.jpgFMC00.191BBD drawings of cup and host as symbol of transubstantiation in mysteriesdepicts several BBD drawings of the monstrance or sanctissimum (or 'sanctum sanctorum') as symbol of the transubstantiation: the shining, like a small Sun, in the sanctissimum wherein the host is carried on a crescent cup.

The monstrance represents the Sun and the Moon, and the symbol shows the sun (the Christ, the spirit) gains victory over the moon (the physical, as the influences that gave human beings their physical form come from the moon) through the Mystery of Golgotha.

What is currently merely an empty symbol, was once a reality in the (semi-)ancient mysteries. The priest initiate experienced how preserved fermenting substances in sacred crystalline vessels became transformed in such a way that he saw a small sun or a small natural monstrance in the crystalline vessel, as the substances spread sunshine around them. The priest saw how the substances and forces shone in the sacred crystalline vessels, and knew how the transubstantiation occurred. (1924-09-05-GA346 - see Greek mysteries#1924-09-05-GA346).

Today the sanctissimum in the Mass shows the rays of the Sun, but the connection of the Christ with the Sun and the reality behind the symbol have been totally lost. (1924-07-11-GA237)

Compare with the symbol of new moon at Easter and Schema FMC00.116 on Holy Grail : the spiritual sun Christ (host) shines in the 'crescent cup'. The GA343A lecture uses this description of sunlight and moonlight (see also 1908-05-20-GA103).

Also (not as a symbol but conceptually): on Schema FMC00.468 on Christ Module 5 - Initiation and spiritualization .. the physical holder or cup is Man's lower bodily structure, and the Christ Impulse fructifies this and so through "not me, but the Christ in me" .. Mankind and future Earth become a Sun. More on this 'starting to shine' on Christ Module 7 - Cosmic dimension

The deep meaning of this symbol of Christianity and transubstantiation as part of the ancient mysteries has been lost, but has been elucidated by Rudolf Steiner in various lectures (references see Schema FMC00.191) The roman catholic insignia IHS means Jesus. IHS comes from the Latinized version of the Greek ιησους or (in capitals) ΙΗΣΟΥΣ, hence IHSOUS in Latin letters, of which the first three letters in capitals IHS(ous). The Greek name is transliterated as and pronounced iēsous, the Hebrew name is transliterated and pronounced yeshūa, in Latin it becomes Iesus. More correctly would be Christ or Christ-Jesus.image

This drawing and lecture has been misinterpreted outside of a spiritual scientific framework and understanding by groups and forces whose aim is to accuse anthroposophy and Rudolf Steiner's teachings of racism. See 'Further reading' section on the Human races page for an extensive coverage of sources who correct these wrongful attacks. For this reason specific details on the Scheme are added. The two blackboard sketches part of this lecture have been merged, and terminology has been adapted to contemporary language versus the terms used over 100 years ago in context of an audience who had another understanding of these words as part of a larger knowledge framework of human races. Specifically: the word 'epoch' has been added to the evolutionary periods; an explanation has been added in light grey for the 'monera'; the term 'Indianer' has been replaced with 'ancient American Indians' (not to be confused with native americans as we know them today, as here the remnant of the Saturn sub-race of the Atlantean epoch is meant - see Schema FMC00.186 and Schema FMC00.204); and the term 'dekadente Abzweigung' is translated by 'declining branch(ing)', as it branches off in a declining fashion relative to the main evolutionary pathway (see Schema FMC00.546).

FMC00.214G.jpgFMC00.214GSimulation of reduced ocean water levels - Doggerland and Poseidonisshows how simulation of reduced ocean water levels by NASA based on satellite data brings to life, on the right, Doggerland (see Schema FMC00.622) just a few hundred meters below current sea level, and in the middle, how Poseidonis arises in the Atlantean ocean at around 3000m below current water level (see maps from Schema FMC00.214 on the left).

Such maps can also be used to position other areas where underwater remains have been found, such as Bimini Road near the Bahamas, or Yonaguni Monument east of Taiwan - both less than 100m under current sea levels (see also Schema FMC00.545). Relatively little to no research seems to have been done at deeper levels due to high costs and technical limitations. An exception were the sonar images showing structures around 600-800m before the Cuban cost (around 2001, see the work of Paulina Zelitsky).

Note however such finds definitely do not necessarily relate to the Atlantean culture given the transition between epochs and the long history of 10.000 years in the Current Postatlantean epoch between approx. -8000 BC and today. Doggerland is an illustration.
FMC00.214H.jpgFMC00.214HYonaguni Monument locationillustrates how Yonaguni Monument, approx. 100 kilometres east of Taiwan and discovered only in 1986, lies only some 30m below current sea level. Simulation of lowered sea levels shows (map by NASA, below middle) shows that an ‘arc’ land connection, currently under water, once connected Taiwan with south Japan, and was in fact a seaside mountain range. The map on the right below is at some 3000 m level below the current sea level, see also Schema FMC00.214G. Just like doggerland on that Schema, these images build an appreciation for how cultures inhabited different parts of the Earth between the Atlantean epoch and today, and much remains unknown of the last 10.000 years of our current Postatlantean epoch and the first cultural ages (eg period 8000 to 5000 BC).Image

FMC00.429.jpgFMC00.429Christ's 'descent' to Earth and working of influence on Earth and humanityprovides various versions of the drawing made by Rudolf Steiner in Q&A sessions in 1909, with a description of how to imagine Christ's 'descent' to Earth, and the working of the cosmic influence of the Christ impulse on Earth and humanity. Though the Christ being took hold of and lived in the body of Jesus of Nazareth, his being was not physically limited to this. This is described by Rudolf Steiner in various ways, ao the structure of the Christ being on the two Jesus children (see Schema FMC00.080A), the relation between the physical body of Jesus and his working through a wider aura (see ao lectures of the fifth gospel GA148, see Schema FMC00.017), the loosening between the 'Son of Man' and the cosmic Christ (see Fleeting youth in Gospel of Mark), and finally Christ working as the spirit of the Earth.
FMC00.430.jpgFMC00.430Workings and historical influence of important Individualitiesis a drawing made by Rudolf Steiner, recorded by Mathilde Scholl in a private conversation where she asked Rudolf Steiner how the aftereffects of an important Individuality such as the apostle Paul were related to the effects of the Earth's inner layer called the 'shatterer'. See also Schema FMC00.004 on Earth's inner layers.

Just so you don't feel alone ;) Whereas each individual is different (in terms of Individuality, elemental balance, spiritual maturity and karma), this table does provide a statistical sample illustrating the self-assessment feedback system in the IIH steps and consistency and repeatability in how groups of people are able to reach a certain stage of development in terms of spiritual faculties. What is meant with auto-feedback is that in Bardon's system, the candidate uses an honest self-assessment on certain criteria reached in the exercises, as a qualifier before moving to the next step. Therefore the steps can be seen to represent 'bands' in the progress of spiritual development.

The illustrations of these personalities were taken from the internet public domain. For ancient time periods, the representations may not always necessarily be trustworthy or documented, one can even argue they were made up (but then even more interesting the 'coincidence'), nevertheless and despite all reservations, the purely visual side-by-side may trigger a feeling of correspondence.

The series of this Schema FMC00.510 and its variants FMC00.510A etc are supporting illustrative material to the quote from 1907-05-29-GA099: "highly developed Individualities have great similarity of stature and form of the physical body from one incarnation to another .. "it is said that such a Man is not born in a different body". See also Schema FMC00.503 (Raphael-Novalis) and Schema FMC00.502 (Campanella-Weiniger).

FMC00.534.jpgFMC00.534Nodal points in evolutionary spirals as related to hierarchies and cultural ages - the 4th centuryis a schema intended to support study of the fourth and fifth cultural ages and gain insights of the patterns underlying evolutionary development of humanity, see also Schema FMC00.059 on History. This schema has:
  • a) a lower section with key dates and phases described in Rudolf Steiner's lectures, and focus on i) the period of the 4th century (see also 325) and the Transition between 4th and 14th century (including aspects such as Central European cultural basin but also 869, the Christ Impulse - meeting of two streams, Academy of Gondishapur, and more); and ii) the period 1840 and it's relation to the new start in the age of the consciousness soul (see 1840 and 1879)
  • b) an upper section showing the inhale-exhale cycle of cosmic breathing and the two halves of an evolutionary cycle related to this. In this case focus is on a cultural age corresponding to an archai time spirit, whereby certain centuries or periods represent crucial transitions on the timeline of the development of mankind. History and evolution does not progress linearly but with jumps or step changes represented by the spiral symbol. This is linked to the activity of spiritual activities (above) and their emanation that can be observed (below).
    • For example: the year 333 is described (in 1918-10-16-GA182) as the time the intellectual soul was coming to its prime, up to then it was developing on the ascending arc, then began the arc of descent.

The Discussion Note The two halves of an evolutionary cycle#Note 1 - First and second half of a cultural age provides a narrative to the schema with explanations and relevant lecture excerpts and references, to explain the point the schema conveys, and how it helps to understand the 'jump' in Schema FMC00.535.

FMC00.536.jpgFMC00.536Illustrations of medieval spiritual worldview with hierarchies, planetary spheres and zodiacillustrates a spiritual scientific cosmogony with various representations dating from the middle ages. The various spheres represent the planes or worlds of consciousness with the seven planetary spheres and the fixed stars, the spiritual hierarchies and the Logos or 'god'.

This representation takes the human kingdom perspective on Earth as the center, and shows how creation is made up of these spiritual hierarchies and their influences from the various worlds. It is therefore a graphical way to depict, in a single picture, a worldview and understanding of the make up of the cosmos and what underlies the Cosmic fractal. All images position creation: Man and humanity (with the kingdoms of nature and Earth), in a frame (with God the creator and) main elements: (1) the planetary spheres modulating (2) zodiacal spiritual influences, as linked to (3) the spiritual hierarchies. This puts Man at the center of divine creation, solar system and cosmos, being the crown of creation rather than just another speck in the wide empty universe, as is the case in the contemporary materialistic worldview of mineral science.

FMC00.537.jpgFMC00.537Alchemy and seven pointed star - three illustrationsshows a famous symbolic representation of a worldview in the esoteric language used in alchemy. The illustration appears first with Basil Valentine around 1600 and was reproduced in different versions by various authors over the centuries.

The illustration contains the male-female duality (2), the triangle of the principles sulphur-mercury-salt (3), the four elements (4), the pentagram of the alchemist (5), six by the combination of the two triangles (6), and seven pointed start or septagram shows the seven planetary influences and alchemical processes (7) modulating what is called on this site the two etheric streams sun and moon (see also Emerald tablet), condensing to mineral earth below from the single energy in the middle. The drawing thus illustrates in synthetic form the relation between key numbers. For further explanations, see Schema FMC00.537A.

The ring contains the acrostic or word composition VITRIOL for 'Visita Interiora Terrae Rectificando Invenies Occultum Lapidem' which, translated freely, means 'visit the interior of the Earth and by rectifying you will find the hidden stone' (see Schema FMC00.207 for explanation).

It shows how our Earthly life and impressions influence the human being over multiple incarnations. When Man is able to actively work upon and use his intellectual soul, it has meaning for the third-following incarnation, and so on.

This picture also 'explains' the importance of meditation and initiation, as the most valuable work carrying across into future incarnations.

On the right, underneath the time bar of epochs and cultural ages, are some statements illustrating this for our current fifth cultural age.

Below right is an addition (by the author), connecting to various statements by Rudolf Steiner about the fact that the fifth and sixth cultural ages are the decisive ones, and also about the spiritualization or ascent of humanity in the Sixth epoch (see Schema FMC00.505) and the Father impulse).

The drawing represents the scope and flow covered in this essay. So the essay centers on the Earth stage and positions Man as to where he came from, and what will be his future. But also how Man contributes to the future cosmos as as Free Man Creator, carried by and through the spiritual hierarchies.image
FMC00.564.jpgFMC00.564Cosmic fractal evolution from start to now (DL on 'before Old Saturn') - spiral viewa Schema by DL, who made this up - some inspiration for meditation.

What was there before our solar system, as described in spiritual science? What happened before Old Saturn? Why do we start there, with what is described?

Imagine the divinity as The three Logoi, it has as its intrinsic nature that it wants to know itself, and it is characterized by a cosmic breathing pulse. Through this breathing, the logoic principle gives rise, in consecutive cycles, to a new combination of consciousness, life and form, which is called a spiritual hierarchy. The Seraphim are still closely tied to the nature of the third logos (L3), then follow Cherubim and Thrones.

The triad is characterized by a threefoldedness in how the natures of the three hierarchies interrelate (between themselves), and relate to the three logoi: consciousness, a rhythmic life pulse, and an extension which gives it form. In following cycles a ladder is led down of such triads (see upper left of the drawing) thereby extending a ladder of currently Twelve Conditions of Consciousness. In each cycle, an additional hierarchy is added below in an extension of complexity of the Cosmic Fractal.

This can be mapped to the start of our current solar system evolution (lower right) starting with the Thrones sacrificing and the angels being the last hierarchy, and we find back the stages of Old Saturn, Old Sun, Old Moon. See Schema FMC00.077 and variants. A 'linking pin' chain element closely ties the lowest hierarchy of triad N and the highest of the next triad N+1.

The drawing is only a high level sketch of a complex multi-dimensional dynamic. Below the horizontal line, the future is developing. Within our solar system 'cycle' of the spiral, one could say the horizontal line on the lower right corresponds to the CoC=4 'human stage' type of consciousness, but one can also imagine that the nature or complexity of the condition of consciousness shifts with each spiral arm, so it jumps with steps of 4.

Compare the three triad blocks on the lower right corner for Old Moon stage, to the same block on Schema FMC00.077B.

Extending the horizontal line on the lower right, one sees that Earth and Future Jupiter are two intermediate stages that reach a sort of cycle conclusion stage on Future Venus - see also Schema FMC00.022 on that page. This is maybe also why Rudolf Steiner says that no human mind or language can today imagine Vulcan, and hence why it is not talked about: creation and the state of consciousness is beyond what we can take in scope for grasping with current intellectual thought and waking consciousness.

The spiral and ladder of consciousness is not fixed or stable, but very relative, as one can look at it in many ways. For example in the next three planetary stages, humanity will be in the roles represented by the colour green on Schemas FMC00.077 A and B. After that comes a graduation to become creator at a higher level, emanating substance through sacrifice; to get an idea: like the Thrones gave rise to the Archai on Old Saturn. See again Schemas FMC00.077 A and B - this schema does not show this (but it could be depicted in a future grid version).

FMC00.568.jpgFMC00.568Illustration of cosmic principle of Mahat - the whole gives its essence to its partsillustrates the great cosmic principle also described by IAO or the ouroboros (Schema FMC00.328), the principle of 'the highest divinity who wants to know itself' as the ultimate underlying principle of creation, the cosmos, or the cosmic fractal. Or put differently with the concept of Mahat: the whole gives its essence to each of its parts.

At the core and heart is the ultimate property of the highest divinity, acting out of selfless devotion to the world out of love as an act of freedom (1903-11-16-GA090A).

What this means is further covered in spiritual science by the study of evolution, and a pathway of development for spiritual beings reaching I-consciousness and evolving along a ladder of twelve conditions of consciousness, as depicted on Schema FMC00.329.
FMC00.569.jpgFMC00.569Evolution of Man's aura from Lemurian epoch to current
FMC00.570.jpgFMC00.570Depiction of clairvoyant view of evolution on Earth and Manconnects three levels of viewing evolution: at the level of planetary stage of evolution to Condition of Consciousness for the spiritual hierarchy of humanity, how this develops on the fourth planetary stage Earth, and how we can follow this evolution for the human being.

The high level cosmic principles such as Mahat (Schema FMC00.568) and the principle of creation by the three logoi (Schema FMC00.067A and Schema FMC00.067B) are connected to the development of Man's bodily principles and how this can be followed with clairvoyant spiritual vision in the aura of the human being (Schema FMC00.569).

Note this is an ambitious schema in terms of conceptual scope, this first implementation of the idea is probably suboptimal. For now, this Schema will make sense and come to life when studying seven lectures together, as presented on Schema FMC00.570A.
FMC00.570A.jpgFMC00.570AMeta schema with study approach on IAO, Logoi, Mahat with lecture referencesis a meta schema that provides guidance for approaching study, referencing three FMC wiki topic pages (in green) where the following five to eight key lecture extracts can be studied, along with the five schemas below. The goal is to grasp what is underlying Schema FMC00.570.

The Mahat principle (Schema FMC00.568) is described on the IAO topic page, and it is shows the essential nature of the three Logoi and divinity, the principle underlying the evolution of the cosmic fractal along ever greater complexity and conditions of consciousness.

On the Creation by the three Logoi, the principle of FMC00.067A and B is explained in the key lecture in blue.

That lecture is expanded upon in the two lectures on the Human aura page on the right. There, the principles covered before, are sketched concretely for the current Earth stage and the development of Man, both described evolutionary based on clairvoyant aura structures. In conclusion this can be connected to the upper right illustration, how the human being is becoming an evolving creator being, Free Man Creator, contributing to creation .. as a step along the CoC-ladder and future conditions of consciousness as a planetary spirit and as a zodiac. This then comes full circle with FMC00.568. See also: Christ Module 10 - Tenth Hierarchy.

A similar study journey can be followed after this, using FMC00.329 and FMC00.077A as a basis, linking these with FMC00.564 and FMC00.564A to gain a broader perspective on creation.

FMC00.583.jpgFMC00.583Evolution of kingdoms of nature across planetary stages of evolutionshows two 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 evolutionary stage 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 as they are in their current form. For example, on Old Saturn, Man was a physical seed in warmth. Furthermore, these schematics dramatically simplify the complete process, as Conditions of Life (CoL) and Form (CoF) with iterative recapitulations are not shown.

Within Earth's mineral CoL and physical CoF, the five epochs show (upper right) a recapitulation of all that preceded, 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 waited for the conditions to be right to incorporate the fourth structural bodily principle of the human 'I'. Souls that descended earlier into physical bodies under conditions that didn't allow to incorporate the human 'I', resulted in the various animal forms (see Schema FMC00.210 and variants), whereby the apes were last and hence closest to the human being. The animals were not able to separate from the astral group souls through the process of individuation, the way humanity does.

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, which will lead to and make up two kingdoms on the next planetary stage of evolution Future Jupiter.

FMC00.585.jpgFMC00.585Organic structure in Rudolf Steiner's writings and study of heart thinkingshows a few illustrations to show the organic structure that was discovered by George O'Neil in Rudolf Steiner's books, taken from Mark Riccio's book 'The logik of the heart' (2016). As described in the book, Rudolf Steiner composed his books, chapters and sentences in organic forms resembling musical notation. Implicit are the four organic laws of metamorphosis: rhythm, enhancement, polarity and inversion. The work done by George O'Neil and his students Florin Lowndes and Mark Riccio (and their work groups) has shown that practicing this study technique can transform one's faculty of thinking, exactly as Rudolf Steiner had pointed out about the effect his work 'Philosophy of Freedom' could have. Quoting from the book: "At some point one sees the whole contents as an idea in the mind's eye as a living-painting-form." and " O'Neil suggest that at some point you can see through the text content, colors and forms, and perceive the thought beings behind a chapter. " This appears to be one of anthroposophy's well-kept secrets, though Rudolf Steiner referred to it as "heart thinking" (1910-03-29-GA119), "living thinking" (1922-09-30-GA216, 1922-10-07-GA217) or "formative (or Goethean) thinking" (1919-01-01-GA187), "thinking, using the etheric body" (1919-06-12-GA193).
FMC00.586.jpgFMC00.586Picture gallery of anthroposophists (born 1840-1879)is the first picture of a gallery (see also Schema 586 variants A to C) with a selection of about 100 souls that incarnated as part of the wave of spiritual science centered around Rudolf Steiner as a teacher; many of which are known to be important Individualities.

FMC00.587.jpgFMC00.587Ancient humanity's universal alphabet based on direct phonetic soul feelingillustrates the fact that humanity originally had just one phonetic language made up of sounds, or letters based on the feeling contained in speech sounds. In this universal alphabet, sounds of vowels and consonants related directly to soul experience. In later developments of language this was completely lost.

The table is compiled from descriptions in lectures by Rudolf Steiner, including examples, and is illustrative and not meant to be complete.

Also in the context of interaction with deceased souls, Rudolf Steiner speaks of this heart-language of the deceased, not based on abstract meaning of words, but of feeling content and meaning that issues from the sounds themselves.

FMC00.588.jpgFMC00.588Positioning of sources of spiritual science of current postatlantean epochpositions existing sources of spiritual science in terms of written knowledge, as originating in various knowledge streams from different cultural ages and cultures. It shows how traditions originate from the time before alphabets or written language, furthermore mostly such sacred wisdom was conveyed with oral traditions. Hence the Eastern Indian scriptures are reflections of ancient traditions going back millenia before.

The goal of this Schema is to position important works in spiritual science, such as Bhagavad Gita, Book of Genesis, Sepher Yetzirah, Pistis Sophia, Book of Revelation, the gospels, etc. .. whereby the distinction needs to be made between the time when these were written down, versus the ancient wisdom stream that they reflect. Contemporary spiritual science in the current cultural age - as in theosophy and anthroposophy - offers an integrative framework for our contemporary language and consciousness, that shows how all these teachings, including ancients myths and traditions from the various cultures and ages, are all about the same knowledge.

Note the table focuses on spiritual scientific knowledge streams and existing written works. It does not include initiation knowledge from the ancient mysteries, nor the oldest of sources that originate from before the Current Postatlantean epoch, such as the Book of Dzyan or the Book of Ten Pages.
FMC00.589.jpgFMC00.589Formative forces in Man's bodily principles, with principles of healing with plants and metals and working of formic and oxalic acidshows an illustration of the formative forces in the human being.

On the left is shown how the stream of cosmic influences works from the I downwards and flows through the various bodily principles of the human structural make-up. If there are any unbalances causing illness, these can be compensated for through therapeutic substances from the plant or mineral kingdom that work on the etheric and mineral physical bodies, as represented by the small arrows. See more on healing with plants and healing with metals.

On the right is shown the working of oxalic acid that is transformed in the human body into formic acid. Both oxalic and formic acid are needed by the human etheric and astral bodies. They can be seen as representatives for the etheric and astral domains, and the plant and animal kingdom produce these substances by natural excretion. The light grey arrows show the process of the astral and etheric body transforming these organic living substances into lifeless mineral matter. What matters to the I-organization is the process of transition and the effect of the formative forces of these substances, not what they represent as mineral matter with the chemical formulas given.

FMC00.591.jpgFMC00.591Decisive phase for humanity between descent and ascent and third and sixth epochsshows the decisive phase for the development of humanity between the third Lemurian epoch and the Sixth epoch. In the Lemurian epoch, the spirit and group souls descended into the physical bodies that had developed to sufficient complexity to be able to develop the Human 'I'. This is shown left with the extract from Schema FMC00.210. The process of individuation through the Development of the I is still ongoing in the Current fifth Postatlantean epoch. In the next Sixth epoch, part of humanity will spiritualize again.

A bifurcation is happening with a decisive division between good and evil branches of mankind, starting today but especially the coming millenia and onwards. As a result of this, the balanced and spiritually mature (represented by the path of the Christ) will be able to continue development in non-physical changing conditions on Earth and beyond. Others will be chained to the lower material realms and ultimately make up a lower kingdom on the next planetary stage of evolution Future Jupiter. This is shown right with an extract from Schema FMC00.583 and the evolution of the kingdoms of nature per planetary stage.

The central illustration is based and inspired on Rudolf Steiner's drawings in the lecture of 1911-10-14-GA131, see also Schema FMC00.591A.
FMC00.591A.jpgFMC00.591APositioning of impact of Fall and luciferic influence on decisive phase for humanity between descent and ascentshows additional views to Schema FMC00.591, with - on the left - the rough drawings and accompanying text from lecture 1911-10-14-GA131, in the middle a visualisation of what was described, and on the right Schema FMC00.346 about the Fall and redemption - original sin and grace.

Due to the Luciferic influence, the developmental path of mankind changed considerably, see more on:

FMC00.591B.jpgFMC00.591BSketches by Valentin Tomberg on influence of higher self on ascentis a drawing by Valentin Tomberg, part of lectures held in 1939 in Rotterdam, published by Willi Seiss in the booklet 'The four sacrifices of Christ and the appearance of Christ in the etheric'. It is shared here because Tomberg uses the same visualization of Schema FMC00.591A, and because of the merit of the idea presented with the drawing on the right.

On the right, Tomberg uses this presentation to couple karmic pre-sentience (see Schema FMC00.081) and knowledge of previous lives (see Past life memories). Both are faculties of the 'new clairvoyance' referenced by and linked to 'Christ in the etheric'. Tomberg points out that in the future, the soul will naturally connect insight of 'guilt in the past' to presentience of 'karmic impact of future deeds', thus allowing for restoration of karmic balance.

On the left, as a legend for the drawing on the right (interpretation added by editor to be compatible with FMC wiki nomenclature and Rudolf Steiner's teachings): the lower 'I' is the consciousness of the senses and the physical world (and the lower astral body); the higher 'I' is Man's higher triad, the spiritual future of Man constituted by the life-spirit (or budhi) and spirit-man (or atma) parts of the monad. In the middle would then be the consciousness soul and spirit self (manas) 'bridge' between the lower incarnate life and the future spiritual life of mankind. The 'I am' and conscience labels to this drawing are misleading (as happens with secondary sources), as conscience should not be coupled only and directly to the higher 'I', and the 'I am' and pure spiritual love certainly is the higher self (re budhi Schema FMC00.481). Rather, these higher spiritual faculties 'ripple through' to the lower principles of the spirit self and consciousness soul (for principle, see also below on Schema FMC00.431 and the corresponding lecture(s)).
FMC00.592.jpgFMC00.592Strader device - pictures and sketchesshows the Strader device (upper left) and three additional devices (lower left) used in Rudolf Steiner's Mystery Dramas, and right various sketches for the construction of the models made as hints for future etheric technology, drawings by Oskar Schmiedel (1887-1959) and Hans Kuhn (1889-1977).
FMC00.593.jpgFMC00.593Reincarnation as out- and inbreathing - gives fruits of Earth to cosmos after deathillustrates how the human being sheds off his lower bodies after death, and gives off the cosmos the fruits of the Earth. As a result of the incarnate life on Earth, Man contributes the seeds for future worlds, that are taken up and carried by the higher hierarchies. Thoughts and feelings create fields of activity for the Third Hierarchy (H3) and Second Hierarchy (H2).

The process of death like an exhaling out into the cosmos. A new birth is like an inhaling, bringing down the spirit germ into the physical body carried by the stream of heredity (see Schema FMC00.321 and Schema FMC00.331 and on Embryo in the womb).

During incarnated life on Earth, the forces from the higher worlds keep working in the human being, see also the double.
FMC00.594.jpgFMC00.594Process of humanity: individuation and spiritual integration (metaphoric imagery)offers a visualization of the process that humanity goes through, from the group souls of humanity, over individuation, to the future spiritualization into future group souls based on moral ideals.

The small insert on the lower left references that this is part of a universal process whereby the logos goes from one universal divinity to many, see also the theosophical 'mahat' concept on the IAO topic page.

Underlined terms reference FMC wiki topic pages. The metaphoric imagery consists of, upper left, a cake crumbling from monolithic to ever smaller pieces - like from ocean to droplets (to represent the spiritual hierarchies, each human being is connected to the archangelic and archai level); and on the lower right, small metallic particles in free chaotic order but organizing themselves, as attracted to magnets (the magnets are unifying soul qualities, hence virtues and moral ideals).

The crumbling into ever smaller crumbles is ongoing, today mankind is only physically separated into separate physical bodies, but humanity is still connected to the Third Hierarchy. Through Man's transformation and spiritualization also the other bodily principles will be separated, but also unified, as separation is an attribute of the lower worlds (from the lower spirit world downwards). In the higher spirit world, the principle of buddhi or Christos or selfless love (see Schema FMC00.481) is a vantage convergence point also called the Second Adam.

The idea of this schema is not to take it literally, but to imagine it at a higher level in one's mind and soul.
FMC00.595.jpgFMC00.595Effect of cosmic nutrition and formative forces by comparing growth of seedlingsshows an experiment by Rudolf Hauschka to show the effect of cosmic nutrition and the etheric formative (life) forces, by comparing growth of seedlings immersed directly into solutions of substances vs indirectly in their spheres of radiation. Graphs show average length of shoots after 10 days of experiment in solutions with different potencies D4 to D8. Above the line is shown the avg. length of leaves, below the line the avg. length of roots.

Substances on the left are brain and eye as organs of the nerve-sense subsystems. They promote growth when raying in influences from the surrounding sphere, whereas they have no effect in direct application.

Substance on the right is spleen as organ for the metabolic-limb subsystem. Take up is largest for direct immersion versus radiation influence.

Taken from the book 'Nutrition' by Rudolf Hauschka as another excellent example of experiments confirming the spiritual scientific knowledge paradigm or hypothesis in the physical lab, without any need for higher cognition. Other examples are Schema FMC00.011, Schema FMC00.012 and Schema FMC00.527.
FMC00.596.jpgFMC00.596Characteristics of metamorphosis of the human being between two incarnationsprovides an overview and selection of statements related to the metamorphosis of the human being between two incarnations in the spirit world during the process between death and a new birth. This provides a synthetic summary for reference, the lectures on the right should be read to get context and full description. Note: see also more in 1906-03-14-GA097.
FMC00.597.jpgFMC00.597Reincarnation as out- and inbreathing - mother, father and fertilizationconnects the process between death and a new birth, before and after the midnight hour, to the mother and the father. The organization of the astral body draws one to the mother, the 'I' to the father, and the two poles of the human being then meet through mother and father. For a visualization see also Schema FMC00.593 and Schema FMC00.321. For the process between fertilization and birth, see also Schema FMC00.331 on Embryo in the womb.
FMC00.598.jpgFMC00.598Metamorphosis in the plant and animal kingdomsshows metamorphosis in the plant and animal kingdoms, and the amazing transformation of form due to the workings of the laws of the astral and etheric on the mineral in the physical world. The butterfly represents a universal symbol for metamorphosis. The comparative baseline (terms in blue below) is taken from Grohmann's book 'The Plant'. He describes in comparative way the pre-dominant forces in the threefold process: how in the root, a salt process with centripetal forces is mostly active (corresponding to the head-nerve subsystem in Man); whereas in the flower a warmth process with expansive centrifugal forces is mostly active (corresponding to the metabolic-limb and digestive in Man). In the leaf, a light process is active (corresponding to the rhythmic subsystem in Man).
FMC00.599.jpgFMC00.599The large unified arch-continent called Pangaeadepicts a possible or probable structure of the large unified arch-continent with granite-gneiss crust called Pangaea at the end of the Paleozoic era, the Permo-Carboniferous period (see also Schema FMC00.209). View from the Sun after the separation of moon in the Lemurian epoch. This large unified arch-continent would have covered about one third of the spherical surface of today’s Earth. The dashed lines give the later fracture boundaries, double-dashed show future narrow zones of high mountain belts. Illustration from the excellent reference work by Dankmar Bosse 'The mutual evolution of Earth and humanity' (2002), after H.G. Owen 'Atlas of Continental displacement' (1983).

On the middle drawing, the red lines map the ring of fire (left), whereas the blue dots map the end points from the tetraeder structure drawing. Below right: another illustration below by Hans-Ulrich Schmutz from the book 'Die Tetraeder-struktur der Erde'.
FMC00.600.jpgFMC00.600Before and after the separation of Moon and Earthshows various BlackBoard Drawings (BBD) by Rudolf Steiner illustrating the early history of the Earth in the Lemurian epoch, and the separation of the moon.

Left: before the separation of the moon (shown in yellow in the white Earth), the Earth was illuminated by the sun from one side. The fluid Earth was made up from a thick liquid substance, and in this 'Earth soup' land masses floated, huge lumps of slime (white spots under arrows). The Earth had its own reproductive energy as the moon forces in the Earth were fertilized by the sunlight (arrows shown). See also Schema FMC00.318.

Second from left (and right): from the living Earth, consisting of a thick fluid nucleus (yellow) and surrounding thick air (purple), a protuberance developed which wore away and at last split off, thereby forming an offspring that went out into cosmic space.

Right: This inverted body that was separated off (in purple) now had the thick fluid outside and the thinner air inside. It hardened only after it was outside the Earth, and became the current moon. From the hollowing out of the Earth in various places and from the receding continents one can tell that the moon separated from the Earth in the area now called the Pacific Ocean. See also Schema FMC00.315.

With the separation of moon a complete change took place, not only in what separated itself off but also in the Earth itself. The rotation of the Earth began only along with the separation of the moon, with the Sun now working on the whole body of the Earth in an alternate rhythm of day and night.

Taken together with Schema FMC00.600 and these descriptions, one can imagine - see below middle and right - how the denser part of Earth is on the left - turned to the Sun, before and as the rotation of Earth set in. The drawing below right then links to Schema FMC00.599A.

The map provides an overview showing expansion areas in green and compression areas in dark grey. Relate the largest green areas on the right and below right to Schema FMC00.599A (and FMC00.600A).
FMC00.602.jpgFMC00.602Migrations in the Central european cultural basin as mixture of folks and merging of two streams of developmentmaps the specific description of the different folks or people across Europe and their migrations in the Central European cultural basin - as described in detail in the two lectures of 1915-07-24-GA162 and 1924-03-15-GA353 - constituting the great mixture of the Two streams of development, the Northern and Southern streams. See also Schema FMC00.501.

See also the perspective of folk souls (Schema FMC00.459) overlaying Migrations, in context of the impulse of the third Greco-Latin cultural age (Schema FMC00.534 on the topic page 325) and Christ Impulse - meeting of two streams (Schema FMC00.113).image
FMC00.603.jpgFMC00.603Man's bodily principles working to a different extent in Man's three subsystemsis a graphical illustration of the fact that Man's bodily principles work to a different extent in the three subsystems of Man as threefold being, as explained in 1921-04-11-GA313. The head or nerve-sense subsystem is essentially physical body only and thus the 'dying' part, opposite to which the metabolic-limb subsystem is the more spiritual coming into being part.
FMC00.604.jpgFMC00.604Pattern of incarnations of Individualities of Rudolf and Marie Steiner and Ita Wegmanprovides an overview of the information that can be found in multiple sources regarding several incarnations of the Individuality of Rudolf Steiner (KRI 36), Marie-Steiner von Sivers (KRI 59) and Ita Wegman (KRI 37), in context of Impulses from waves of reincarnating souls.

Note: as an example of connected Individualities, Wilhelm Anton Neumann (1837-1919), was connected in a previous incarnation with Thomas Aquinas (re lecture of 1888-11-09 attended by Neumann and referenced by Rudolf Steiner in 1920-05-24-GA074, 1924-07-18-GA240, 1924-09-12 and a conversation with Rittelmeyer in 1921). Also in this previous incarnation, Gunther Wagner (1842-1930) was the brother of Thomas Aquinas father and abbot Sinibaldus of the Benedict abbey of Monte Cassino (IT) where Thomas Aquinas was entered at age five to have his education (1912-03-06-GA265A and many additional research notes in appendix (incl. letter by Marie Steiner of 1907-08-18, and a letter by Rudolf Steiner to Doris and Franz Paulus 1904-05-14 who were also connected in this incarnation).

A similar diagram could be made linking Plato and Socrates who also had earlier incarnations as Silenus and Dionysus.

FMC00.605.jpgFMC00.605Arnold Mindell's model of the three levels of realityshows a simple picture of Arnold Mindell's model of the three levels of reality. Though not part of the spiritual scientific worldview, one can see it as an illustration of the Golden Chain as part of the Cosmic fractal.

Below 'consensus reality', called this way because the majority of human beings are in consensus about the physical world with common contemporary waking consciousness. In the middle what is called the emergent 'dreaming level' that can be thought of as the astral world. Above the 'sentient essence' level that one can relate to the spirit world (for example Rawn Clark speaks there of 'essential meaning').

The model is used a.o. in ORSC coaching (Organizational Relationship and Systems Coaching). Another model where one finds these multiple levels of reality and soul experience is TheoryU. This illustrates that concepts from spiritual science are all around us in the world.

The two illustrations were combined to support contemplation of the evolutionary process and the formation and deposition of minerals that can be found in geological layers.
FMC00.607.jpgFMC00.607Spiritual guidance of mankind and segmentation across ages and epochsprovides an overview of how the law of evolution applies to the development and spiritual guidance of mankind, with a focus on the evolution between the previous Atlantean epoch towards the next Sixth epoch. As development is only possible through differentiation, different segments at various stages of karmic development or spiritual maturity must be separated in order to develop further. Examples of this separation were the different Mysteries and Oracles in the Atlantean epoch, and the castes in India and other areas incl. Egypt. In the future, moral castes will develop based on spiritual maturity as part of the separation of mankind into good and evil segments or sub-races (190X-XX-XX-GA097, 1908-06-21-GA104, 1910-GA013)

The Current Postatlantean epoch is a gradual training to independence for humanity. This is depicted below with a transfer of the guidance of mankind by leaders not part of humanity, that developed on other planets (see also Three Classes of Buddhas) .. to - in the Sixth epoch - the leadership of mankind by the most advanced humans who developed on Eart . The schema shows the gradual evolution of these trends across the cultural ages, and how the sixth cultural age will seed the sixth epoch with the appearance of these moral castes and the fact that the Masters of the White Lodge will become publicly known as leaders of humanity.

  • regarding boxes on the lower left:
    • examples of priests and priest-kings: Zarathustra in the Ancient Persian cultural age, the Egyptian Pharaohs

      • first: Egyptian Pharaohs, Babylonian rulers, Asiatic rulers .. were initiates
      • then : "the priest-type emerged as ruler and was really the ruler right up to the Reformation and the Renaissance"
      • since that time: the economist has been in command, rulers are merely the handymen,of the economists.
        • has become an impersonal ahrimanic force/entity as in the 19th century due to evolution of banking
  • regarding castes in India
    • the castes in India should not be related to the first Ancient Indian cultural age .. they appeared later and lasted at least until the fourth cultural age
    • the lecture references given for the castes in India couples karma-based segmentation to the number of incarnations, hence the term 'spiritual maturity'
  • the Southern stream of development consisted of the four most advanced segments or castes from the Atlantean epoch
  • 1912-05-29-GA155 describes the Two streams of development as an excellent illustration of the two arms of the spiral of development, the need for two concurrent streams of development whereby a second one first stays behind, in order to be able to fructify and merge and grow further beyond the development of the first.

FMC00.611.jpgFMC00.611Book of Revelation and the fourth and fifth cultural ages - and 600y waves of cultural impulsesillustrates two lectures where Rudolf Steiner describes historical development of the Central European cultural basin in the last two millenia in rhythms of some 150 and 600 years. In 1924-09-17-GA346 the seven seals and seven trumpets are used as language to describe time periods of some 150-160 years. In 1911-03-13-GA124 time periods of 600-650 years are used to described waves of cultural impulses and renewal.

The first lecture is an interesting illustration of the Cosmic Fractal nature, and patterns in the cycles connected with the various levels of the spiritual hierarchies: stages from the Book of Revelation are used to describe patterns at a smaller time scale of shorter cycles.

Regarding the renewal waves in 1911-03-13-GA124 (re : Reconquista#1911-03-13-GA124) against a timeline, see also Schema FMC00.534 and Schema FMC00.535

This large clock modulates the various zodiacal influences at the point where the Sun is closest and farthest from the Earth, the key explanation underlying the ice ages on Earth. Illustrations from Elisabeth Vreede's essay from Jun-Jul 1930, elaborating on Rudolf Steiner's key lecture of 1910-12-31-GA126 and other lectures about the year 1250 and the ice ages.
FMC00.613A.jpgFMC00.613ASlow movement of the apsides against the movement of the zodiac (equinoxes)is another visualization by Elisabeth Vreede in her essay of 1930 on the movement of the apsides and how this related to the precession of the equinoxes.
FMC00.614.jpgFMC00.614Bely illustrations of nodal points in history due to the rhythms of various cosmic influencesshows various drawings by Andrei Bely (1880-1953, born Boris Bugaev) who was greatly influenced by Rudolf Steiner's ideas, including various statements about nodal or kink points in history due to the rhythms of various cosmic influences. For examples lecture references, see Schema FMC00.615

For example the year 1250, eg in 1911-01-29-GA130 "things have changed since the year 1250. In the thirteenth century an important, significant transformation of earthly relationships took place ... a change of direction since the Renaissance .. [due to] the change of direction of the Earth's axis at the time when the archai withdrew] (see more info on Transition between 4th and 14th century and Macroscopic rhythms).

The drawings on the upper right show Bely's main idea that the first four cultural ages are a gradual more continuous evolution, but that afterwards there are certain kink points with crises. The drawing upper right is a more worked out version, but not easy to parse without an understanding of Bely's book. Colours correspond to Man's bodily principles, smaller coloured waves represent different cultural streams (Greece, Arabs, France, etc.), and further historical references and keywords added (antiquity, renaissance, etc.). Below are two more detailed drawings showing exceptional detail.

Notes:

1/ Reference: Andrei Bely: 'The History of the Formation of the Self-Conscious Soul' (1926–1931).

See also his 'Reminiscences of Rudolf Steiner', Chapter 3, Sections 15 and 16 (the last paragraph of Section 18 might be a hint regarding his historical schemas; his consciousness-soul book itself is briefly mentioned further in Section 20).

2/ Regarding these drawings and 'subjective imagination'.

In her memoirs Assia Turgenieff ('Erinnerungen an Rudolf Steiner und die Arbeit am ersten Goetheanum' - as mentioned also in 'The Green Snake' by Woloschin) a note states that Bely had rich imagination stimulated by exercises, and Steiner said Bely's dream-like creations had a life of their own and used the term 'subjective Imagination'.

Bely writes a decent amount about 'subjective Imagination' in connection with Steiner's lectures and esoteric lessons: subjective Imaginations are perceptions of one's own etheric body, a benign symptom of starting to develop Imagination proper. Among Steiner's students, subjective Imaginations weren't limited to Bely alone, and Steiner was very well aware of it. In the course of one-on-one lessons, Bely produced a ton of drawings for Steiner to examine and comment on; other people also kept diaries in the form of artist's journals, and Bely describes how Steiner analyzed different kinds of subjective Imaginations.

FMC00.615.jpgFMC00.615Positioning of year 1250 - cosmic clock of movement of apsides against zodiac clockcaptures main references and relevant statements showing the relation between the cosmic clock of movement of the aptides and precession of the equinoxes (and their link to the ice age at the end of the Atlantean epoch, and the year 1250 - as explained on Macroscopic rhythms), and the spiritual hierarchies.

The schema contains explicit quotes linking macrocosmic rhythms observed astronomically, with the spiritual hierarchies.

Indeed these statements link the described movement to the underlying rhythms of the evolution of the spiritual hierarchies. For context, consider the equivalent Schema FMC00.413 (for the Old Saturn stage of evolution) that depicts this 'passing the baton' or change in leadership influence of the various hierarchies in the different Conditions of Life of an evolutionary stage. This is what the Transition between the 4th and 14th century on Earth is about, and it corresponds to the fact that the hierarchies withdrew and the human being was set free, as illustrated bySchema FMC00.612.jpg.

FMC00.617.jpgFMC00.617From current head thinking to future heart thinking - extended tableshows the progression of the faculties of the human 'I' along the evolution of Earth and Man's bodily principles and structural make up. The current Postatlantean epoch is characterized by the faculty of thinking as part of contemporary waking consciousness. However this intellectual logic or 'head thinking' with the human brain is slowly evolving, and in the future Man will develop 'heart thinking' that will transform the faculty of memory - see stages of clairvoyance. This essence of 1910-03-30-GA119 is complemented with various quotes from other lectures below.table

This schema positioning and lecture is central to and connects to various perspectives covered on multiple topic pages, such as: Christ in the etheric, Past life memories, Stages of clairvoyance, Development of the chakras, and the development of the future faculty of memory, and the Transition between 4th and 14th century, the Sixth epoch, and Future Jupiter.table
FMC00.618.jpgFMC00.618Germanic mythology view on threefold soul with Wotan Wile We and link to migrationsintegrates various lectures regarding the nature of the threefold soul in ancient Germanic mythology of the Northern stream of development, and relates this to the influence of folk souls after migrations in the central european cultural basin (see Schemas FMC00.602 and FMC00.501) and the development of the threefold soul.

For an understanding of how these relate, and the columns represented in the schema, please study the respective topic pages and lectures.

Note: the various folk souls and threefold soul shown in the middle and right columns, are also illustrated on Schema FMC00.619 and discussed in relation to their timing on: 1840 and 1879#Note 1 - About renewal of cultural waves and 'discrete jumps'

FMC00.619.jpgFMC00.619The U-curve of the threefold soul in the Central european cultural basin, as overlaid with the U-curve at epoch and cultural age levelis an integrative Schema that overlays various perspectives from different topic pages and no less than seven other schemas.

At the lowest level, it shows the Two streams of development, northern and southern streams. It then adds in overlay the Central European cultural basin where the two streams merged by migrations and mixing of different folks in the previous fourth cultural age.

This overview is used to illustrate the observation (see Schema FMC00.618) that the three elements of the threefold soul are geographically along a (smaller-scaled) U-curve, similar to the (larger-scaled) U-curve of the different cultural ages (in dark blue), and the (even larger scaled) U-curve shown in insert below right, between the different epochs (Lemurian, Atlantean, Current Postatlantean or Aryan, and the next Sixth epoch).

The integration of the threefold soul in the human 'I' and future spirit-self or manas is along this line, provided by the Germanic and Slavic people (1910-06-16-GA121) - whereby these terms are to be interpreted broadly in this context and not related to current nations.

On this Schema, green-boxed titles reference topic pages, relevant Schemas for each aspect are listed in seven grey-boxed Schema references.
FMC00.620.jpgFMC00.620Process overview of Jean Dubuis' Experience of Eternity methodshows a schematic overview of the Experience of Eternity (EoE) or Portae Lucis method by Jean Dubuis and the process flow to charge the fluid condensors for the four elements for the different energies, that are used in the discharge near the summer solstice.

The EoE or Portae Lucis method is an alchemical support method that gives some tailwind for spiritual advancement by using maximized natural spiritual influences for purification and restoration of one's elemental balance.

Dubuis developed this method throughout his life, inspired by his initial natural illumination as a child. Goal of the method is to optimize the conditions for spontaneous natural illumination, by using fluid condensors for the four elements at different energetic levels and using the optimized timing (and even location) as a support. The concept is that the influx of natural spiritual influences at their maxima, supported with the individually charged fluid condensors for the four elements, restores any unbalances and has a purifying effect. Depending on the spiritual maturity of the person, it facilitates the flow of energy at its maximum so as to cause natural illumination, or an experience of unity and the higher spirit world beyond space and time.
FMC00.621.jpgFMC00.621Illustrations of some locations with a long Michaelic traditionshows illustrations of just a few of the special locations with a long Michaelic tradition, known for their special spiritual energies:
  • upper left: Mont Saint-Michel (France) - dating back to the 8th century, with Benedictine abbey as of the 10th century
  • upper right: Saint Michael’s Mount (England) - with legend of 8th century and Benedictine priority as of 11th century
  • lower left: Skellig Michael (Ireland) - isolated island off the Irish coast, with 6th-century monastery
  • lower right: Sacra di San Michele (Italy) - near Turin, with abbey from the 10th century

Other examples of such special places are Sanctuario di San Michele Arcangelo, a cave in Monte Sant'Angelo (Italy) and pilgrimage destination since the 5th century, the small but beautiful San Michele Arcangelo in Perugia (Italy) also dating back to 5th or 6th century, the chapel built on the 60x120m Saint-Michel tumulus in Carnac (France) containing several dolmen of at least 5000 years old.

Note: the Irish island reminds of the more northern Scottish Isles of Iona (with monasteries going back to 6th century or before) and Staffa (with the ancient initiation site Fingal's cave) - for more information see topic page Hibernian Mysteries, and the map on Schema FMC00.622. For the link between Ireland and Scotland and the Christianization of Europe, see Central European cultural basin where Rudolf Steiner describes how Iro-Scottish monks such as a.o. Patrick, Columban, and Gallus spread Christianity in Europe in the 5th-6th centuries.

Rudolf Steiner mentions this as an important area populated during the migrations from Atlantis, and the Northern stream of development between say -8000 to -800 BC, with oa the Hibernian Mysteries (Ireland) and an important Mystery Center in Jutland (Denmark) - see Nerthus.

A number of historical landmarks have been added from the Druidic and Trotten mysteries, along with such sites that Rudolf Steiner visited, and Michaelic sites - see Schema FMC00.621 from the later spreading of Christianity by Irish-Scottish monks.

FMC00.626.jpgFMC00.626Illustrations of leontocephaline figures found in Mithraic temples - often linked to Zurvanillustrates the leontocephaline figures found in Mithraic temples: lion-headed figures with naked human body entwined with a serpent, (two or) four wings, and holding one or two keys and a staff or sword.

These images and statues are often linked to Zurvan, the creator god and personification of time and eternity in Zurvanism, generally regarded as a (later) branch of Zoroastrianism,

Manly Hall quotes Franz Cumont and relates this symbol to boundless time and the victory over time and the god Aion or Kronos. Compare also with depictions of Phanes (such as in the Estense Gallery in Modena, Italy) showing a winged human body encircled by a serpent and holding a staff.

The illustration of the Ovum Zoroastraeum or the egg of creation by Athanasius Kircher (1602-1680) is taken from ‘Oedipus Aegyptiacus’, (published in 1652-1654), whereby Kircher referenced the Zoroastrian creation in Plutarch's (ca. 46-119) ‘De Iside et Osiride’ (in English ‘Of Isis and Osiris’).

The 'egg of creation' come back in creation myths and their symbols worldwide, see for example the leontocephaline figures found in Mithraic temples (Schema FMC00.626) or Phanes in ancient Greek Orphic cosmogony, and other visualizations oa of the Petra Genetrix (the mother rock from which Mithras was born - see Schema FMC00.628B.

The concept of eternal time and link with the ouroboros (Schema FMC00.328) is also explained by Rudolf Steiner in context of IAO, see Schema FMC00.327 (and Schema FMC00.329) on the IAO topic page.
FMC00.628.jpgFMC00.628From unity and eternity to duality and time - symbols across the agesdepicts various illustrations and symbols showing Mithras - Phanes hatching from the cosmic egg, with the symbolism of the zodiac and infinite time circle also represented as a snake eternally biting its own tail (ouroboros); or Man caught and wrapped in time and a snake. These symbols are some 6000 years old, and originate in the ancient Persian cultural age (approx. 5700 to 3000 BC) and the teachings of Zarathustra (Zaruana Akarana), but also in the Egypto-Chaldean cultural age (approx 2300 to 750 BC, ouroboros) and the Greco-Latin cultural age (approx 750 BC to 400 AD) with the ancient Greek Orphic Mysteries (Phanes) and the Mithras cult retained into the Roman culture upto around the 5th century.image

FMC00.632.jpgFMC00.632depicts the relationship of spiritual science to contemporary mineral science (or the material-physical natural sciences).

The lower grey block in the middle below represents the physical world as observed with contemporary mainstream waking consciousness, as the scope of mineral science. Above it are the (overlapping) higher worlds which require other modes of consciousness and are included in scope of spiritual science (truncated or limited to the higher spirit world). On its left, the process of initiation as a path to develop (faculties latent in each human being into) higher capabilities; for example Bardon's proven system of self-initiation IIH consists of 10 steps.

Observe that any information and knowledge about spiritual realities gathered ‘above’ needs to be ‘translated down’ into human language and its cognitive limitations (as this language is for use on the physical plane with waking consciousness). It therefore becomes a description and a projection by the person who had the experience and the knowledge (and no longer 'absolute').

The illustration outer left can serve as illustration for the fact our current physical materialistic worldview is also but a projection (re Plato's cave) looking at reality through a bandpass filter of current waking consciousness. Higher stages of cognition are called imagination (astral world), inspiration (lower spirit world, also 'hearing the music of the spheres), and intuition (of the higher spirit world, or 'understanding') .. all describing different aspects of a given spiritual reality. In the picture showing imagination and inspiration, intuition would represent merging and knowing the shown object itself (knowing not just with regards to form, but with regards to essential meaning).

Finally, through certain experiments it is possible to bridge between and unify spiritual and mineral sciences by testing and validating hypotheses from spiritual science ‘above’, with physical mineral science and experiments ‘below’.

FMC00.635.jpgFMC00.635Character transformation and moral idealsshows a cartoon by Gavin Aung Than (zenpencils.com) to convey the essence of character transformation and moral ideals guided by one's inner strength and conscience.

The 'feeding' of the inner wolves is our free choice of what we take in as 'cosmic breathing', meaning not just in-breathing as intake of air but also food, information and multimedia impulses (to what do we dedicate our time? what do we take in?) , as well as the out-breathing as in our speaking and actions.

This relates to what Rudolf Steiner calls the middle path of the Christ as selflessness and spiritual love between various opposing Luciferic, Ahrimanic and Soratic counterforces, and what Franz Bardon calls elemental balance in the system of self-initiation 'Initiation into Hermetics' (IIH) and the initiation exercises in the first steps of elemental balance - character transformation. Or, from another angle, by Lao Tzu: "Watch your thoughts, they become your words ... Watch your words, they become your actions ... Watch your actions, they become your habits ... Watch your habits, they become your character ... Watch your character, it becomes your destiny".

FMC00.636.jpgFMC00.636The lesser and greater Mysteriesshows a synthesis of Rudolf Steiner's comments on the ancient Mysteries and what was called the lesser (outer) and greater (inner) Mysteries in the Mystery School tradition in previous cultural ages. For context, see also Schema FMC00.607 on Spiritual guidance of mankind.

On the right: Initiation changed with the Mystery of Golgotha.

On the left: in current times from the 20th century onwards, the lesser Mysteries have become public with a.o. theosophy and anthroposophy, and the greater Mysteries have evolved to self-initiation in the current age of the consciousness soul (see also Parsifal).

Rudolf Steiner was a teacher of the lesser Mysteries, and these teachings are now available worldwide in the public domain many languages for self-study and working in groups. Franz Bardon was a teacher of the greater Mysteries, and his three books with the first pivotal self-initiation guide are also available in the public domain.

In today's societal systems and social life, there is no longer the need for an established school structure, guru or initiator. It is now up to humanity and each soul for themself, based on freedom of conscious choice and actions (Schema FMC00.612), and based on each soul's spiritual maturity.

This Free Man Creator wiki site has as goal to provide information on these two angles to the spiritual world, and provide a useful support tool for earnest seekers worldwide.
