The Intellectual or mind soul (Hebrew: רוח Ruach "air, wind"; linguistically related to "smoke", but also to "odour, smell"; German: Verstandes- oder Gemütsseele) is a part of the human soul and lives in the interplay of mind and spirit. The wisdom-filled etheric body formed the first disposition to the mind soul. This wisdom was imprinted into the human being by the spirits of wisdom towards the end of the old lunar evolution (Lit.:GA 13, p. 212). During the subsequent evolution of the earth it first came forth when, in the polar period, the earth, which was then still united with the sun and moon, condensed to the state of air (Lit.:GA 13, p. 223). Just as warmth had kindled the inner life in man, so the air surrounding him now excited the spiritual tone in him. A part of the life ether condensed into the sound ether. The stimulators of the soul of understanding are the Mercury beings {{Lit|{{G|98|198)), GA 102, p. 59f).
