- **September:** Goethe, then a young man of 16, travels to the
University of Leipzig with two passengers from Frankfurt. Most of
the journey takes place in the rain and the carriage sometimes has
difficulty climbing hills. As the travelers left their seats to walk
behind the horses, the young man noticed a strange and luminous
object on the ground: Suddenly, in a ravine to the right of the
road, I saw a kind of amphitheater wonderfully illuminated. In a
tubular space shone an incalculable number of small lights placed
one on top of the other; and they shone so brightly that the eye
was dazzled. But what troubled most in this vision was that the
lights were not fixed, they jumped here and there, went up and down
and vice versa, in all directions. The largest number of them,
however, remained stable and radiated. It was with the greatest
secrecy that I agreed, when I was called, to move away from this
spectacle that I would have liked to examine more closely\... It
remains to be seen whether this was a pandemonium of goblins or an
assembly of luminous creatures; I cannot decide. [\[6th book of his
autobiography according to Kenneth Anger, film director and occult
scholar\]]{.source}
