  • More about Seat of the Soul: Rudolf Steiner's Seven Planetary Seals, A Biological Perspective


Yvan Rioux's book "The Seat of the Soul" explores the formation of the human organism through external morphic fields and internal faculties, linking organs and tissues to create five inner landscapes. It also discusses Rudolf Steiner's seven planetary seals and their etheric impacts on metabolism, offering a holistic perspective beyond modern reductionist science.

Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 228 pages

Publisher: Temple Lodge Publishing


The human organism's internal and external forms are shaped by a combination of external "formative forces" or morphic fields, which are created in conjunction with forces that resonate within us from the living solar system. These formative forces shape the body and organism, while the psyche, or soul, emerges progressively as an inner world of faculties that learn to apprehend and understand the outer world.

In his previous book, "The Mystery of Emerging Form," Yvan Rioux explored the formative forces of the twelve zodiacal constellations. In this absorbing sequel, he investigates how such activity from the planetary spheres works within us, as "life stages or metabolic processes." Through seven chapters, he explores the impact of each of these planetary spheres on our complex organic make-up and psychic activity.

Rioux also gives a description of Rudolf Steiner's seven "planetary seals" from a biological perspective. According to Steiner, these seals are occult scripts that show their ongoing etheric impacts on the seven stages of our metabolism. Between Steiner's indications concerning human physiology and the ancient Chinese view on the subject, there is a convergence of ideas that breaks through the boundaries of modern reductionist science, offering exciting perspectives for understanding the human being.

The seat of the soul is where the inner world and the external world converge, creating a dynamic interplay between the physical body and the spiritual essence of the human being. It is a place of profound connection and transformation, where we can access our deepest desires, fears, and aspirations and learn to live in harmony with the world around us.
