These five profound lectures look at the cosmic forces behind the
four great festivals of the year, providing a wealth of material
for fruitful thought and meditation. Steiner presents great
imaginative pictures that unite the heavens and the Earth through a
portrayal of the activities of the archangels Michael, Gabriel,
Raphael, and Uriel. In the course of the lectures, Rudolf Steiner
offers spiritual insight into subjects that include the alchemical
processes of sulfur, mercury, and salt in the cosmos; the realms of
humankind and plants; spiritual combustion processes; crystals;
clouds and meteors; the movements of elemental beings in nature;
and the conflicting efforts of Lucifer and Ahriman the two great
adversaries to divert Earth from its true purpose. The Four Seasons
and the Archangels includes five color plates of Rudolf Steiner s
blackboard drawings made during the lectures."
