When Rudolf Steiner talks about Jupiter it seems to me that he is talking about the new earth. And in this quote Steiner talks about the cerebellum in relation to old Moon and Jupiter. Really cryptic and esoteric, and my guess interpretation is that this refers to the fall of humanity when humanity became separated from God, meaning the cerebellum disconnected! So that "divine powers" no longer directed humanity's thinking and instead after the fall we developed independent thinking. And on the new earth the cerebellum will become activated again, not like in the garden of Eden which was a pre-intellectual state but with an intellect developed through our fallen state.
Quote:"Our cerebellum is a remnant of the Moon stage of evolution; it sits there as a sign of the battles that the Gods fought for us. The cerebellum arose from what was thought on old Moon. There were no errors in our thoughts then, for divine powers thought for us and guided our thoughts. Man had no freedom yet; divine beings directed him. Now that he's become independent he must be responsible for what he thinks. There are also remnants of old Moon in the cerebrum's pineal and pituitary glands; on old Moon they were what the lung and heart are in man today. And what a man does now will form his cerebrum on Jupiter. What he thinks in connection with his cerebrum now will form his cerebellum on Jupiter. A man must bear the consequences of his thinking now that he's become free, and the cerebellum sits in the back of his head like a judge, for it will take the effects of everything that he thought on earth over to Jupiter." - From the Contents of Esoteric Classes by Rudolf Steiner
