Emil Stejnar

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Emil Stejnar (born January 21, 1939 in Vienna ) is an Austrian goldsmith , product designer of lights and mirrors, occultist , astrologer and author .

Life

Stejnar trained as a goldsmith and silversmith. In the 1950s and early 1960s he designed several hanging, ceiling and wall lights for the Viennese lighting manufacturer Rupert Nikoll as well as mirrors decorated with crystal glass flowers. He often felt his lights emulate star explosions. His best-known object is the Sputnik lamp, which is also called the dandelion or snowball lamp. With his design he inspired other designers of the Space Age era to create their own futuristic lamps. His work belongs to the style of the mid-century modern .

Stejnar emigrated to Sweden in 1957. There he ran a jewelry workshop and devoted himself to occult studies. In 1968 he married and returned to his native Vienna. He was particularly interested in Freemasonry and astrology because there, according to his own statements, he found the interfaces that connect the “world of spirit” with the “world of matter”, i.e. the world of esotericism with the world of science . For twenty years he was the head of the Institute for Scientific Research into Fate . In 1990 he founded the "Esoteric Circle" as part of the Masonic Research Lodge Quatuor Coronati to research magic and mysticism in Freemasonry and in the Christian tradition.

As an astrologer he studied the works of Franz Bardon , to whom he also feels spiritually connected. In cooperation with Heinz Fidelsberger from the Vienna Astrological Society, he tried to differentiate between astrology and fortune-telling. The recognition of the commercial occupation with astrology by the trade offices of Austria was a concern of his.

to teach

Stejnar postulated the existence of “human subtle bodies” and “fields of consciousness”, which he called the “cosmobiological structure of psychophysical force fields” and “superordinate soul organs”. These correspond to "astrological planetary principles". Emil Stejnar's gnostic and hermetically shaped life management concepts contain practices and exercises for “character refinement” and for training the will and imagination for the purpose of gaining self-knowledge .
