Thanks Matt, you are an enduring source of inspiration. You say "humanity is offered the possibility of freedom in love. Thence begins the evolutionary return to Spirit, as Jupiter, Venus, and Vulcan phases await our free and loving participation."
How many will take this offer? Steiner predicted that only few will. But can we not see the fall into materialism and egoism, as another needed offer that we can only approach with love? Can we not start another 'cosmic rebellion', the 'new human rebellion', where we say, enough with these endless battles of hierarchies, we protest against this endless immoral selection, we will go down together, or we will go forward together. We refuse any 'war of all against all', that may be needed in the big scheme of things according to the divine order. We don't care if you are a materialist, a spiritualist, an egoist, an altruist, a christ, an anti christ. We are all human and we belong to each other, more than we belong to any divine order. Do we choose to follow the divine, or do we choose to follow the new human rebellion? Maybe we can negotiate with the Gods and find a compromise.
Thank you for this amazingly concise & poignant rendering of the inner realities experienced by these high spiritual beings, of which we are part of. This series by Steiner really spoke to me especially the part around the rejection of the Thrones offering, which Anthroposophical Psychology calls the sacred wound. I made these lectures the basis for my capstone for the Association of Anthroposophical Psychology. I created a kind of Mystery Drama that I call Soul Excursion - taking us on a soul journey into the past, present and future, in the progression of human & cosmic consciousness - a modern quest to Know ThySelf - Embracing the Sacred Wound in the search for Authenticity.
This drama is staged as a therapeutic Socratic dialogue, with conversations that go deep & wide, ranging from everyday challenges, discussions about Spiritual Science; to super-sensible experiences that facilitate a co-working with these powerful Spiritual Beings & the so-called dead.
The reading is staged in a semi-circle that invites All to participate in the ‘ArtActs’ embedded in the drama: Eurythmy, Spoken Verse, & Song – A Head, Heart & Hands Psychosynthesis of Art, Science & Spirituality – enacted on the stage of social renewal, as a Cognitive Ritual of the New Mysteries.
Projected on a screen behind the readers are collaged PowerPoint images which include verses, songs etc. meant to invoke & accompany the various mood themes.
What hovers over the work is: Becoming Anthropo-Sophia as an Inner Experience of the “I” – thru the question: How Do Our Cosmic Origins Affect Our Lives Today?
As you can see it is living in me deeply. Thanks for your beautiful work.

MAtthew, thank you again for this. Is Steiner, in essence, saying that the heart is the bridge?
