"After Goethe read the Chemical Wedding of Christian Rosenkreutz, he was inspired by it, and his thoughts formed into his Fairy Tale "The Green Snake and the Beautiful Liliy". Novalis, a friend of Goethe, and also a Romantic poet (Novalis being considered the founder of German Romanticism) was moved by Goethe's Fairy Tale and wrote Klingsor's Fairy Tale in response. Novalis saw important reflections on human destiny in spiritual nature which were not revealed in Goethe's work. Novalis was surprisingly clear in revealing the connection of Greek figures, thought today to be at best ‘mythological', but actually, were to him, living signs of spiritual Words, that related to the riddles of human destiny and particularly of higher spiritual human relationships beings and their coming spiritual destiny in higher realms. This had to play itself out as new bonds of Love formed between human beings. This at first appears as a path far removed from the present earth time in the past, but as a view which a spiritual seer can view which comes into our future as well.

 The author has stood upon the great shoulders of Novalis to look into the depths of time forward and back as if there is something magically formed between his soul and the world - like a Rainbow made of the akashic substances of the lives of the participants of this Holy Drama - a drama of love. If this resonates with you, then please feel invited to study the recordings that are available on the links below.

You will notice in the work of our school the tracing of the figures of Greek Mythology back to Homer's epics about the Trojan war. This is not coincidental. The work of Novalis, although greatly admired by Rudolf Steiner, was not his main focus, which was instead to reveal the treasures in Goethe's view of nature.

Dr. Steiner however, stated very clearly at the end of his life the importance of the Anthroposophists at the end of the 20th century to meet up with the teachings of Novalis which he predicted would pour into the world through his spiritual soul. Now we are in the time that Rudolf Steiner spoke.

At the online school participants can join me in the discussions of these things, but first please study my recorded Spirit-Channeling Sessions I made in bringing the Spirit of Novalis into focus for us at the Rosenkreutz School of the Spirit.

Tara Samadhi interviews Eugene Passofaro on the Vesica Piscis.  

The Mystery of Pisces and the Two Fish are the geometric symbols of a deep and hidden nature.  Why and how? In this video interview by Tara Samahi, the answer given is quite exciting for modern students of the spirit for it pictures to us how our soul crosses into external nature through light and interacts with it in a special space creation called a Vesica Piscis.  Also Tara asks the million dollar question: "Explain to us the Nature Spirits!" and the answer is given is also very surprising! 

Eugene explains this is a hidden path into nature, an esoteric path,  and includes the seeing of the Nature Spirits. But also, one has to go on this path and experience it. This is important because following this path puts one into contact with subtle substances of nature as 'fruits' that are found on the path. We find out later that these 'fruits' are not just ordinary, but are extraordinary and we discover what they do in us. One important insight is that the subtle processes revitalize latent powers of seeing in our spiritual nature. 

One can ask: Why it is hidden? and it is related that it is because of our inner weaknesses and that we must break our connection because of these inner weaknesses.  It is explained that the role of the teacher is then revealed to be at the initial the steps that initiate the processes within the soul. 

When the Vesica Piscis occurs an inner sense organ is created which is also 'given' by nature and shared in our soul nature.  One has to comprehend how important it is to receive this sense organ.  The path of this creation will give insight into the will of nature beings and spirits in regards to the development of the soul natures of men.  Both males and females receive from nature according to whether the Soul is receiving or pouring out into nature its fertilizing substances.  

It is further related that Thoughts are impregnating forces emanating into nature as an invisible but no less powerful process.  The Spirit in Nature makes these emanations visible to the Students of the  Spirits of Nature and in this interaction, inspirations come as a result wherein nature reveals pure soul substances in the light.  These are revelations of Light and herald the 'Light Age' for those who are willing to place their souls in this subtle and pure light of nature's creations. 

If one follows the interaction of sunlight and water there one comes to what the ancients saw as the Vesica Piscis and it pictured and reflected into them the paths, geometry and the process of the joining of the soul with natures of men. These are respectively to be seen as interactive soul substances of the male and female substance natures.
