Atlantis and the Martians

thesteinerquotes:

“In old Atlantis, you had humans, whose bodys were occupied by souls, that had formerly been on Mars, Jupiter, Venus and so on.

Martians, Jupiterians and so on they were called. Also the outer shapes of bodies were different from each other.

In the first half of Atlantis the human body was of much softer mass, it gave in to the power of the soul.” (Rudolf Steiner)
