Here is the next pair of Calendar of the Soul verses for this week (#39) and its polar opposite (#14). Note how the verses have diverged from the lemniscate's crossing point at Michaelmas, (which is Verse #26 with Polar verse #27). We have passed Christmas (#38), which occurs right after the Winter Solstice and marks the bottom of the lemniscate. (St. John's Tide marks the top).

39. Woche (29. Dezember - 4. Januar)
|
An Geistesoffenbarung hingegeben
Gewinne ich des Weltenwesens Licht.
Gedankenkraft, sie waechst
Sich klaerend mir mich selbst zu geben,
Und weckend loest sich mir
Aus Denkermacht das Selbstgefuehl.

39th week: (December 29 - January 4.)
|
Surrendered to the spirit's revelation,
I win back the light of cosmic being.
It grows and grows,
enlightening me,
to give my self back to me.
And this feeling of my self---
awakening---
unravels itself
out of my strength
as a thinker.

SOMMER
|
14. Woche (7. Juli - 13. Juli)
|
An Sinnesoffenbarung hingegeben
Verlor ich Eigenwesens Trieb,
Gedankentraum, er schien
Betaeubend mir das Selbst zu rauben,
Doch weckend nahet schon
Im Sinnenschein mir Weltendenken.

SUMMER
|
14th week: (July 7 - July 13)
|
Surrendered to my senses' revelation,
I lose the urging of my own being.
The dream of thinking!
It appears---
dazzling me---
to rob my own self from me!
But in that sense appearance,
already fast approaching,
awakening me,
is---
cosmic thinking.
