Ita Wegman's Death Day
March 4th is Ita Wegman's Death Day
Ita Wegman crossed the threshold Mrach 4, 1943 in Arlesheim, Switzerland. She was a dear friend, colleague and longtime soulmate of spiritual scientist Rudolf Steiner. Ita Wegman and Rudolf Steiner woke to their previous karmic connections of former lifetimes. Steiner beckoned all those around him to wake up with a sense of urgency. After 1879, it is now possible to transcend individual thoughts and think with one's angel and the Archangel Michael - the ruling Time spirit from 1879 to 2179. Steiner said of Ita Wegman that she was the only one around him who could discern between the human and the God working in him.
Ms. Wegman knew that death is but an illusion. When those attending her at her death asked "if she could not stay with them?" She responded "Why ever not?" Meaning I will be with you even after death. These were the last words she spoke. She knew that she would continue to work on afterdeath to inspire those who carry kindred impulses.
The following is from her Biography, Who Was Ita Wegman? by J. E. Zeylmans van Emmichoven:
Anger lived in her, a holy mighty anger about the fact that we do not take hold of our earthly circumstances and form them in the light of Michael. Before her death she had transformed her anger to a magnanimous love which could be expressed by the following poem she wrote (also from her biography):

My path too is long,
it has led me through the ages:
In whatever humanity lived through,
I participated,
Sure of my origin divine;
Yet love made me a human being,
Love for all that surrounds me as human being.
