The Fourfold Being of the Year:

Rudolf Steiner gave many indications for the renewal impulses of the festivals in Christianity and the Anthroposophical Society. They are not necessarily the same ideas of renewal. He was very particular about how we need to go forward to nature (not back to nature) inspired by the imaginations of the human archetype. These affect the human being, Natura, the stars and the human community. In fact, the whole future evolution of our planet is affected by how we find these gestures and create new festivals out of the spiritual understanding of the human being. The fourfold human nature and the four major sun festivals have a lot to do with this work of the Anthroposophical society. How is this applicable to the creation of new festivals here in the south is a long time research work of mine and I will present in more detail some of the four complementary cosmic imaginations that have become clearer over the last few years of observing the signs in sun, moon and stars that interact with our spiritual life here on earth. Anyone interested in preparatory reading could read the lecture cycle The Four seasons and the Archangels. If you have limited time the fifth lecture on the southern hemisphere aspect would be good. A talk with Martin Samson at 7pm at Rudolf Steiner House, June 30 2020.
