"Inasmuch as investigation into the phenomenal world is usually fraught with illusion, then it is understandable that the possibilities of illusion will be increased rather than diminished if the methods for investigating the phenomenal world are also applied to the spiritual world. And, in effect, this is what happens. In consequence we become the victims of an illusion all the more compelling."
~ Rudolf Steiner
(1) Our GET group continues to grow!
There are currently 243 people registered from 33 countries, with 21 participants at this week's session.
(2) This week's topical focus:
A series of exercises exploring states of being and becoming: Unconscious–Conscious…. Disengagement–Engagement…. Reacting–Responding…. Noticing–Observing–Witnessing…. Distanced–Distancing–Approaching–Participating…. Unintentional–Intentional…. Luciferic–Christic–Ahrimanic…. Thinking–Feeling–Willing…. Exploring how all these states of being interweave within us – all the time, whether or not we are aware of them. Each step of increased awareness furthers our “Know Thyself” development.

| Opportunities The number of people in the global Wise Cosmos community is expanding. We grew an amazing 62% from January 2020 to January 2021. Together we represent 59 countries. Our community is comprised of people from North America (64%) and from other nations (36%).
In order to improve our service, the Wise Cosmos team has also grown during this period. One year ago we had four team members spread across three time zones. Today we have nine team members stretched across six time zones. Seeking additional Wise Cosmos team members:
In order to continue effectively serving our growing, worldwide Wise Cosmos community, we have an immediate need to hire three more team members:
+ Website Programmer
(expert in Laravel, PHP, CSS, Vue, BitBucket, Ubuntu, and Lexi-Wiki software).
+ Marketing Coordinator.
For details, contact our Operations Manager, Jodi Chandler, at Jodi@wisecosmos.org
Seeking additional Wise Cosmos project volunteers: Wise Cosmos is looking for volunteers of many kinds. At this time we are particularly seeking people to contribute their creativity, energy, and time to the following projects:
+ Transcribing videos, mostly by Brian Gray, into transcripts for use in creating video captions in service of those people who are hearing impaired and for whom English is not their primary language.
+ Translators of ANY language (other than English) to translate video transcripts for use in creating video subtitles in service of those people for whom English is not their primary language. + People who can help us create a unique anthroposophy lexicon/wiki. Our most immediate need is someone to take the lead managing wiki software. Also needed
are those interested in researching and creating the lexicon and wiki entries.
+ Other projects and roles. If you have skills or talents that you would like to contribute in service to the Wise Cosmos community, let's explore the possibilities together!
For details, contact our Senior Editor, Julia Belgrave, at Julia@wisecosmos.org.
