11 June 323 BC – is the Death-day of Alexander the Great. On this day in 1924, Rudolf Steiner wrote a letter to collaborator & friend Dr. Ita Wegman, from Koberwitz, during the Whitsun Agricultural Course, speaking about her incarnation as his former pupil, when he was Aristotle, & she, Alexander The Great.
In the life between death & rebirth, Aristotle & Alexander, just as before, when they worked together in the bodies of Eabani & Gilgamesh, continued to be active in the Spiritual World for a long period of time. Then in 869 AD the entelechies of Aristotle & Alexander had a convocation with Haroun al-Raschid & his counselor in the Spiritual World, . This coincided with the Council of 869 in Constantinople during which the concept of Spirit was eliminated from the 3-fold human being, & was replaced with the polarized concept of body & soul.
Haroun al-Raschid & the opposing forces that he represented, worked hard to prevent the influence of Christianized Aristotelianism to reach human evolution. These retarding forces want only the teaching of a highly intelligent, yet completely materialistic science to prevail - devoid of any true conception of Spirit.
From the Karmic Relationships lectures: “Aristotle and Alexander had centuries earlier witnessed, from the spiritual world, the departure of Christ from the sphere of the Sun towards Golgotha. This called forth in their souls “the challenge to set a new beginning – not to continue what had been on the earth before this mystery, but to begin completely anew.” “Henceforth, Aristotle and Alexander continue working – who already in antiquity were equal to the concepts and ideas of our fifth post-Atlantean age.” – Karmic Relationships, 1924.
This dynamic duo touched down for a brief incarnation connected with the Parzival saga. Pointing us to the figures of Schionatulander (Rudolf Steiner) & Sigune (Ita Wegman), who play an important, yet mostly overlooked role, in the Parsifal legend. Sigune loves Schionatulander but she longs to read the stellar script, called “Brackenseil” – seen on the leash belonging to the hound “Gardevias” which means: ‘Guardian of the Pathways’. In the attempt to bring it to her, after she had lost it, Schionatulander is killed by Orilus who is actually looking for Parsifal. Schionatulander dies instead of Parsifal; & he becomes a guardian spirit of Parsifal & those on the Quest for the Holy Grail.
Incarnating together again to bear a new striving = the transformation of the Cosmic Intelligence thru the Christ Impulse – they enter the Order of the Dominicans. Out of the quiet ‘cloister cell’ comes a world-wide influence inspired by the most illustrious scholar of the ecclesiastical system of thought, known as Scholasticism – thru Thomas Aquinas (Rudolf Steiner); & by his side is his confesser, the young Dominican, Reginald of Piperno (Ita Wegman).
Albertus Magnus (who later incarnated as Marie Steiner von Sivers) was the teacher of Thomas Aquinas (Rudolf Steiner) helping him grasp Spiritual reality in pure thinking - to lead pure human thinking with mathematical precision from idea to idea - combined with fervent Christian piety - This was the faculty developed by Scholasticism & bequeathed to the Spiritual history of humankind thru these great individualities.
In contrast to the Christ Impulse which brings in the possiblity for the individual “I” consciousness to humanity – The Arabian culture, which Haroun al-Raschid advocated, & again in his incarnation as Frances Bacon, adhered firmly to the old idea of an impersonal Intelligence - that there is no personal thinking, no personal immortality.
Steiner’s Spiritual Science shows us that the Teachers of Chartres, then working in the Spiritual world when Aquinas was on earth, came to understand the significance of personal immortality - realizing that the Cosmic Intelligence had become human - but that this knowledge would have to sleep for a time, so that the intellect could be born in freedom.
NOW, since the advent of the Consciousness Soul Age we are called to use our imaginative cognition to move our thinking in a lemniscate from head to heart, & from heart to head. We must learn the secret that the Fox told the Little Prince, “It is only with the heart that one can see rightly. What is essential is invisible to the eyes.”
And so, dear friends, On this Full Strawberry, Honey Moon of June - May this anniversary of the Death of Alexander the Great, be our reminder to take up again, & once again, our unique individual tasks at hand. ~hag
