SUMMARY:St. John's Day
DESCRIPTION:St. John’s festival celebrates the the human being who stands at a threshold between an older consciousness (Biblically the era of prophets of which St. John was the last) and the new consciousness\, a conscioussness imbued with the Holy Spirit within the human being. \nSt John’s message and words had an inner fire of spiritual connection that kindles enthusiasm in people to break through barriers and change their own inner life.

SUMMARY:Michaelmas
DESCRIPTION:A treasured fall tradition in many Waldorf schools and Anthroposophical circles as well as some European Christians\, Michaelmas is an ancient festival whose central message remains relevant across the centuries. It speaks to us of human potential\, of fear\, of courage in the face of fear\, and of the possibility for transformation. \nIn Biodynamics\, Michaelmas is the signal that life forces will begin to go deep into the Earth. It is the time when we typically make time to dig up horn silica and bury horn manure.
