POD (Poem Of the Day) ~My song raps itself around
16 January 2025 - “Speaking with the Stars”: The waning gibbous Moon courts Regulus, the brightest star in Leo the Lion- the punctuation mark at the bottom of a pattern of stars known as the Sickle that looks like a backward question mark. Below is the view of 4 bright planets in our January sky. FYI: Uranus & Neptune are there as well, we just can’t see them with the naked eye - So we have to add their attributes into our imaginative cognition when we live into the current cosmic inscription. All these planets scoop along the path of the Sun travels (the green line on the EarthSky chart). Brilliant Venus dazzles in dark skies in the west, with the steady golden light of Saturn nearby. They are closest to each other on the evenings of January 17 & 18. High overhead is bright Jupiter, & visible all night is the red planet Mars.
ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY
1412 – The Medici family is appointed official banker of the Papacy
1477 – Birthday AND Deathday (1547 ) of Johannes Schöner, a renowned German polymath. He was a priest, astronomer, astrologer, geographer, cosmographer, cartographer, mathematician, globe &scientific instrument maker & editor/ publisher of scientific tests.

Rudolf Steiner recalls the obituary he gave of Brentano as part of his lecture The Case for Anthroposophy where he also speaks about the Separation of the ‘Psychological from the Non-Psychological’ in Franz Brentano.
1901 – Deathday of Arnold Böcklin a Swiss symbolist painter. Rudolf Steiner speaks about him in an incarnation as an Arthurian Knight 1909 – Ernest Shackleton‘s expedition finds the magnetic South Pole. 1919 – Temperance movement: The United States ratifies the Eighteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, requiring Prohibition 1942 – Crash of TWA Flight 3, killing all 22 aboard, including film star Carole Lombard 1945 – Adolf Hitler moves into his underground bunker, the Führerbunker
1954 – Birthday of Sergei O. Prokofieff – a Russian Anthroposopher - Born in Moscow, to an artistic family: His mother, Sofia Feinberg, was a writer; his father, Oleg Sergeyevich Prokofiev was a sculptor - & his grandfather & namesake, was the famous composer Sergei Prokofiev . At the age of fourteen, S.O.P. became acquainted with Spiritual Science, it was a destiny moment that became his life’s work. He studied painting & art history at the Moscow University of Applied Sciences. When he was 26, while living in Soviet Russia, he wrote his first book: “Rudolf Steiner and the Foundation of the New Mysteries”. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, he was a co-founder of the Anthroposophical Society in Russia. At Easter 2001, he became a member of the Executive Council of the General Anthroposophical Society in Dornach, Switzerland. S.O.P. was a prolific author – At its core of his work was a deep Esoteric Christology, inspired by Rudolf Steiner’s spiritual-scientific research. His treasure trove of writings encompass a Mysetry School -
He was the 1st to confirm my connection with the New Isis. And his dedication to the 1st Class Lessons became my key, & the birthed in me a true knowing. He decodes the living reality of the ‘New Mysteries’, revealing the relationship of the Christ-Sophia in this Michael age, with Rudolf Steiner & Christian Rosenkreutz - which we as human beings are called to explore & develop - That the Earth May Become a Sun.
Today I speak these Prokofieff Quotes out loud today:
May we take up this task to co-create Anthroposophia, this Being of Human Wisdom, within ourselves, & in true community, to serve the world. Thank you dear Sergei for your continued inspiration. ~hag
