The Sun resides inside you

Rudolf Steiner says this really interesting thing about prophecy, it's not even whether prophecy is accurate or whether it is true, what's important about it is that it engages the will toward the future.

In the original Calendar of the Soul that Rudolf Steiner published in 1912, he used both. He had new images of the Zodiac for the Sun, and the dates on the pages where those images were included were according to the Sidereal Zodiac. And then he also had new images of the Zodiac for the Moon, and those dates were according to the Tropical Zodiac. So, for a long time, I have had the imagination that the Tropical Zodiac belongs to our experience when we're in the day-wake world, in what Aristotle referred to as the sublunary world. Where on the Earth, we're beneath the orbit of the Moon. Where time moves in a linear fashion. Things have a beginning, a middle, and an end. There's birth and there's death. This is what happens in this physical sphere. And then when you move beyond the Moon sphere, it shifts. And now we think about things relative to the stars. So I really have this sense that the Tropical Zodiac is for this sublunary work. And then if we're wanting to move beyond the sublunary, then you are stepping into the Sidereal Zodiac and looking at things relative to the stars. It also could say the Tropical has to do with the formative body, the Etheric, and the Sidereal, because Sidereal means to the stars, it has to do with the Astral or star body.
