The sentient soul (GermanEmpfindungsseele) is part of the human soul. Its first seeds were already created on the old moon by the Spirits of Motion belonging to the Mars sphere, which worked in the astral body of the human beings (Lit.:GA 13, p. 212). During the Earth's evolution it appeared for the first time, when in the polar time the Earth condensed up to the fire state (Lit.:GA 13, p. 222). Closely related to this is the so-called Martian passage through the Earth. Martian beings are the stimulators for the development of the sentient soul (Lit.: {G), GA 102, p. 59f}}. It is then further formed by the unconscious work of the human I on the astral body. It is a transformed part of the astral body. This dozy unconscious work on the astral body began in the lemurian time and reached its climax in the Egyptian-Chaldean culture. As an independent member, the sentient soul is born at the age of 21. Through spiritual training, the sentient soul is gradually transformed into the intuition soul (Lit.:GA 145, p. 177).

Aristotle referred to the sentient soul as the orectikon (Greekὀρεκτικόν; w:Latin: anima sensitiva). In Hebrew tradition she is called Nephesh (Hebrewנפש). According to Isaac Luria, Nephesh enters man at birth, Ruach, the mind or spirit soul, but not until sexual maturity around the age of 14, and Neshama, the consciousness soul, with the birth of the I around the age of 21, and only then does Nephesh, the sentient soul, become an independent member of the human being.
