The Work in the Global School of Spiritual Science in the Coming 7 Years 2026-2033
Part I
Only in the third millennium - corresponding to the third day after the death of Christ - mankind will realize the full meaning of Christianity.
Rudolf Steiner
Introduction
During the seven weeks between Easter-Pentecost 2025, the Christ turned our attention to the mysteries of His planetary- cosmic resurrection. The readers of my books [1] would recall that we investigated this mystery since the end of last century. For the first time this development became visible on the threshold of the new century and millennium, especially since 1998-2001. We could perceive the first sun rays of a new planetary- cosmic Aurora, the new Genesis, and that the evolution of the etheric Christ impulse, started in 1933, is making momentous new step. In the coming years, especially since 2009-2012, we realized that what is prepared since 2000 will gradually attain full expression 33 years later, in 2033, 2000 years after the mystery of Golgotha. Then the planetary-cosmic Good Friday and Holy Saturday will have been completed, and the Great Sunday of the Third Millennium would begin. As we shall see below, Rudolf Steiner pointed out in 1906, that only in the Third Millennium humanity will comprehend the true meaning of the Christ impulse.
This impulse has been growing and developing gradually in the etheric world since the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century. In our work, we tried to follow its subtle rhythms, and translate its new steps in the building of the Global School of Spiritual Science. This fact distinguishes this school from other spiritual movements, because since the beginning of the century we listen carefully, grasp and actualize, the inner dynamics and transformations of the etheric Christ impulse. We strive in each decade and year, month and day, to give the school of Michael on earth the required content and formation, to receive and actualize this new impulse in real time.
The meaning of the laying of the renewed foundation stone of the Michaelic movement in the 21st century, during the anniversary of the Christmas Foundation Conference in Christmas 2023, can only be understood, if this is taken fully into account.
The laying of the renewed foundation stone in Christmas 2023, and the subsequent developments of this impulse, led us to perceive that since Easter 2025, Christ’s planetary-cosmic resurrection, that since the end of last century could only be perceived with supersensible perception, can become fully conscious and embodied in human life and social practice, if humans prepare themselves accordingly. And since Easter 2026 we could perceive the unfoldment of a seven year rhythm, that we can use, to prepare the commencement of the Third Millennium, His great planetary-cosmic Sunday of resurrection, beginning in Easter 2033.
This made Easter 2026, and the 7 weeks between Easter and Pentecost, a very fruitful time, on many levels. In each of the 7 weeks, we could perceive how the etheric Christ plants the seeds, that will grow and ripen in the coming 7 years, flourish and bear rich fruits from 2033. If we follow this subtle etheric rhythm, and actualize its inspirations in real time, we will be able to celebrate the full meaning of 2033 in the actual time of its happening: the beginning of the Third Millennium of the planetary-cosmic resurrection of the Christ, the Greate Easter Sunday, after He fulfilled the planetary Great Friday and Great Saturday in the past 2000 years.
Rudolf Steiner said that after Christ’s death on Golgohta, He became invisible in Great Friday and Great Saturday, and became spiritually visible only after His resurrection in Easter Sunday. The same happened also in the next 2000 years, during the planetary Great Friday and Great Saturday. After the first centuries, the Christ disappeared from human consciousness and for 2000 years His impulse was known only to the leaders of esoteric Christianity, in the Grail and Rosicrucian mysteries, while externally, in the official traditions of the Churches, He was increasingly lost, and was finally entirely dismissed and obliterated in the materialistic and scientific theology of the 19th and 20th centuries.
In the last 2000 years the Christ was increasingly misunderstood, on a planetary-cosmic scale, as He was in the short 2 days between Great Friday and Easter. And He will be first understood by humanity in the Third Millennium:
Only in the Third Millennium - corresponding to the third day after the death of Christ - mankind will realize the full meaning of Christianity. [2]
The year 2033 is highly significant also because it will be the first anniversary of the beginning of the second coming, 1933-2033. In 2033, he first full cycle of 3x33 years since the beginning of the second coming in 1933 will have been completed. It is also the beginning of the first anniversary of the Spiritual Event of the 20thcentury, that took place in the etheric world in the 12 years 1933-1945. While on earth the apocalyptic century, that I called in the Christmas lectures of 2023 ‘the Apocalypse of the Age of Michael’, was ravaging and destroying the earth and humanity, in the etheric world the preparation for the planetary-cosmic resurrection of Christ in the Third Millennium took place. The physical and etheric streams remained separated, and were united for the first time on earth, in full consciousness, only in the last decades of the 20th century.
This means that the first century after the beginning of the second coming is also the last century of the second millennium. While the radiance of the etheric light of Christ was increasing in the etheric world, in human consciousness He was largely covered by the intense darkness of the 20th century, and only since the end of the century the first light rays of His Aurora could be perceived on earth. If we prepare ourselves in the right way- the whole development of the Global School of Spiritual Science is directed to this goal from the beginning- then when the dark planetary-cosmic Great Saturday will be completed in 2033, the magnificent planetary-cosmic light of the second coming would be perceived by humans on earth.
As far as human consciousness on earth during the 20th century was concerned, the etheric appearance, words and deeds of the etheric Christ in the first century of the second coming remained suppressed and hidden, shrouded in deep darkness. When the Aurora Genesis of the Third Millennium of the planetary-cosmic Easter will have commenced In 2033, humanity can begin to perceive and understand the true impulse of the resurrected etheric Christ, which it largely missed since 1933. This will also give to the second half of the age of Michael its strongest impulse, and if enough humans will wake up to perceive and realize it in full consciousness, it may still allow humanity to fulfil the true goals of Michael in this time.
The preparations for this mighty event fill our hearts with the most intensive enthusiasm, creative joy, and hopeful intimations. In the developing community of the Global School of Spiritual Science, we continue to nourish and enhance our work with the strong, solid, deep, foundations of the renewed foundation stone of the Michaelic movement in the 21st century, laid in our hearts in Christmas 2023, shared and embodied in our human meetings and community building.
The Preparations for 2033
The preparations for 2033 and the beginning of the Third Millennium of Christ’s planetary-cosmic resurrection, are based on the potent forces that began to germinate in the great turning point of the end of the 20th.
These forces are:
1 The Light that Illuminates the Etheric Form of Christ as Lord of Karma Begins in the Last Decade of the 20th Century.
2 The Dream of Socrates will Come True: Doing the Good Directly.
3 The Auora Genesis of Christ’s Planetary-Cosmic Great Easter in 2033.
Let us look closer at these 3 forces and how they can enhance each other in our work...
