Summary

Author: M.L.

Chapter 12. Woman with sun = positive source of strength.

Poem by C.F. Meyer about the encounter with the doppelganger "Begegnung" (Me led through the fir forest...)

We must keep the small guardian of the threshold "aside".
The great guardian of the threshold is the encounter with the "hell within us".
Every night we meet the small guardian of the threshold (path to the spiritual macrocosm).
We have to face the guardian if we strive for a good development. The image of the beast with the ten horns and the seven heads stands for this.

Spiritually, all stars - even those we cannot see - are directly related to us.
About 14 billion years ago (this is a spiritual house number), the cosmos began to develop.

The Rigveda (part of the Vedas) is divided into 7 stanzas that correspond to the 7 stages of world development.

Meister Eckhart spoke of the soul ground. The pure soul is free from impulses of the adversary.
A virginal, sunlike astral being receives the Christ power, brings it to maturity within itself and then gives birth to it.
then gives birth to it. In one of his sermons, Meister Eckhart speaks of the virgin who became a "woman".
This refers to Luke, 10th chapter, verse 38.

Our goal = to reach the level of the Elohim.

Animal from the sea. According to Physiologus: The panther sleeps for 3 days; all follow his voice, only the dragon, who is his enemy, avoids him. The panther possibly represents the Michaelic force.
The animals in heraldry are symbols.

Dante Alighieri speaks of the panther in the Inferno of his Divine Comedy .
