Earth's atmosphere and outer spheres - detailed schema by Günther Wachsmuth's from his reference work 'Erde und Mensch' (1945, image from fourth edition of 1980). +
Illustrations on the developmental journey for humanity and spiritualization or the re-ascent. +
Twelve worldviews, seven soul moods, three soul tones, one anthropomorphism.
The world discloses itself only to someone who knows that one must look at it from all sides. The schema is structured around the 1914-GA151 four lecture cycle, in which all possible worldviews are decomposed into the exhaustive 12+7+3 set of elementary conceptions, whose already existing combinations make up the history of Western philosophy, and yet unrealized combinations its future potentialities. While the matter is framed philosophically, the schema is valid for any human being capable of developing a worldview. The lecture cycle suggests the possibility of thinking about worldviews ''dynamically''. For descriptions and examples, see [[:File:FMC00.648A.jpg|Schema FMC00.648A]].
Despite the brevity with which the cycle addresses the right part of the schema — the so-called anthropomorphism — it is more difficult than the previous parts; and careful study of the references is recommended, as even the term itself could be misleading if understood habitually. +
a 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 <u>it wants to know itself</u>, and it is characterized by <u>a [[cosmic breathing]] pulse</u>. Through this breathing, the [[logoic principle]] gives rise, in consecutive cycles, to a new combination of [[Three dimensions of evolution|consciousness, life and form]], which is called a [[Spiritual Hierarchies|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 <u>a ladder is led down of such triads</u> (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|Cosmic Fractal.]]
This can be mapped to the start of our [[Overview of solar system evolution|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 [[:File:FMC00.022.jpg|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|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).
adds some quotes to Schema FMC00.534 about the next millennium with the [[Future Oriphiel age|future age of archangel Oriphiel]] (between approx. 2235 and 2590), and the very dark period that humanity will face in the transition phase before the [[Sixth cultural age]] in the period of approx. 3000 to 3500. +
bundles illustrations from various lectures where Rudolf Steiner uses the 'onions sheaths' depiction of [[Man's bodily principles]] to illustrate - in different contexts - how consciousness relates to the lower bodily sheaths.
For this type of presentation, see also Schema FMC00.575, Schema FMC00.356; and similarly for the development of the lower bodies themselves before, Schema FMC00.574. +
captures a few blackboard drawings by Rudolf Steiner from various lectures explaining the process of [[Waking Consciousness|waking consciousness]], with the most complete description given in the lectures of 1918-08-GA183.
In common is the blue backbone of the spinal column showing the chakras (see [[Development of the chakras]]). +
captures how 'the decaying spiritual wave that crashes into mineral matter' (1911-12-31-GA134, see Schema FMC00.582) gives rise to different types of matter depending on how [[Man's bodily principles]] are balanced (left), and how the spiritual structure was created by the different [[Spiritual Hierarchies|spiritual hierarchies]] and is now filled with physical matter as a result of the [[Luciferic influence on Man|Luciferic infection]] (right).
For the description, see reference lecture extract [[The nature of atoms#1911-12-30-GA134]].
Also compare with related schemas FMC00.514, FMC00.392, FMC00.492. +
captures 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|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 [[:File:FMC00.413.jpg|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 [[Three dimensions of evolution|Conditions of Life]] of an evolutionary stage. This is what the [[Transition between 4th and 14th century|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 by[[:File:FMC00.612.jpg|Schema FMC00.612.jpg]]. +
captures the essence of the Christianity and the statement 'blessed who believe without seeing'. Seeing refers to the astral experience during the initiation process, a tradition for many thousands of years, since the Atlantean mysteries and the cultural ages before Christ.
What happened in the three years of Christ Jesus was a public enactment of what the pupil lived through during the old [[initiation]] processes, and these are also the stages in the life of Christ to be found in the [[Gospels]].
See coverage on: [[Initiation in ancient mysteries and after the Mystery of Golgotha]]
Note: the schema is based on early lectures on the [[Book of Revelation]]. See also [[:File:FMC00.100.jpg|Schema FMC00.100]]. +
combines two illustrations by Dankmar Bosse showing the living [[Earth]] as it chrystallized with gradual densification in the previous [[Earth's seven epochs|Earth epochs]] to the current mineral Earth we know today.
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. +
connects [[:File:FMC00.321.jpg|Schema FMC00.321]] - the descent from the spiritual world - with the process of pregnancy and the [[Embryo in the womb]] of the mother. Adapted from Wachsmuth.
Note: in the embryo, we bring with us all that lives in the etheric body of Man, when we take hold of the physical body. The cerebral fluid contains an image of all that which was already present in the ether body, as the ether was drawn together, and which then slips into physical Man. As he dives down into his physical body the fluid part of the organism absorbs what Man brings with him. In the movements within the cerebral fluid a photograph is to be found of what the human being has been before he united with the physical body, of what has taken place before conception. (1922-05-05-GA212) +
connects the conceptual picture of Schema FMC00.067A to the planetary stages of evolution.
For 'divine impulse', see Schema FMC00.185 and Schema FMC00.190. Compare also with Schema FMC00.400 on [[Cosmic breath of Brahma]] +
connects the process between death and a new birth, before and after the [[midnight hour]], to the mother and the father. The organization of the [[Human astral body|astral body]] draws one to the mother, the [[Human 'I'|'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]]. +
connects three levels of viewing evolution: at the level of planetary stage of evolution to [[Twelve Conditions of Consciousness|Condition of Consciousness]] for the spiritual hierarchy of humanity, how this develops on the [[Evolution of Earth|fourth planetary stage Earth]], and how we can follow this evolution for [[Man - the human being|the human being]].
The high level cosmic principles such as Mahat ([[:File:FMC00.568.jpg|Schema FMC00.568]]) and the principle of [[Creation by the three Logoi|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 [[Stages of clairvoyance|clairvoyant spiritual vision]] in the [[Human aura|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 [[:File:FMC00.570A.jpg|Schema FMC00.570A]]. +
contains the original schemas from various original lecture notes and typoscripts of 1915-01-09-GA161. +
depicts Man's short period spent in the etheric after death, with the experience of the 'life memory tableau'.
The [[human etheric body]] slowly but steadily dissolves into the world ether (see [[Laying off the etheric body after death]]). It contains two types of forces: those of the mineral world that will eventually vanish and perish with mineral Earth, and the fertile spiritual of [[Man's higher triad]] and spiritual future. (see also [[:File:FMC00.593.jpg|Schema FMC00.593]] and [[Seeds for future worlds]]). [Whether Man can perceive the latter depends on his relationship to the Mystery of Golgotha during incarnate life. ]
During this period also the [[human astral body]] takes in the learnings, that will be carried forth in the next period of the 'astral rewind in kamaloka', (see [[Kamaloka journey in the astral world after death]]) and the purification and laying off of the astral body. +
depicts 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|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). +
depicts a simple metaphoric image for the main karmic patterns, challenges and debts in one's life or incarnation.
On the upper left is represented the accounting 'balance sheet' of karmic unbalances as a result of many previous lives, the 'book of lives' (part of [[Man's higher triad|Man's higher spiritual self]] or Individuality), also called '[[Structure of Man between death and a new birth#Causal%20body|causal body']] in theosophy. In the accounting image, each life delivers like the equivalent of 'annual results' that is added to the balance sheet in the process and [[journey between death and a new birth]].
Quote: "''don’t think that karma plays out in such a way that we would be able to immediately pay off all the debts we have incurred in a previous incarnation, in the next one. It is not that simple. Sometimes one will have to go through many, many incarnations.If you would be able to look back for a moment and see everything, all the marks in your astral body that need to be redeemed, prior to your rising to a certain degree of spiritual maturity, you would see your whole debt account.''" (1907-11-07-GA098)
When we investigate our current life with biography work and [[karma exercises]] (on the right), we will find particularities, obvious or recurrent challenges, curious patterns. Some don't seem to belong in our experience of this current life, and/or may be an odd aspect of our Personality, even though we feel and have to acknowledge they are an intrinsic part of our true self (and [[Personality and Individuality|Individuality]]). Depending on the individual, the process may include spontaneous [[Past life memories]], whereby certain karmic patterns may clearly point to a particular previous incarnation. Importantly, the patterns are typically interwoven with relationships with key people in our lives (their role, impact, the period of our life) see [[Karmic relationships]].
Rudolf Steiner gave examples of the above with the [[Karma research case studies]] about the [[KRI - Karmic Relationships Individualities]].
During the [[journey between death and a new birth]], before incarnating the soul develops a life plan in the spiritual world, and so each life has a selection of challenges to work and balance out these karmic unbalances - see a.o. [[:File:FMC00.287.jpg|Schema FMC00.287]]. The image of the slide projector depicts how patterns seen in one life stem from elements from various previous lives shown here as overlay slides.
[[Initiation]] is the process of fast tracking this process (versus the 'wheel of karma') by taking on this work on our [[Human character - the I and threefold soul|human character]] consciously during incarnate life with daily [[initiation exercises]].
