'I invite you to travel with me along the spiral of the yearly
festivals, to share what I have discovered there in the 40 years I
have been exploring this path. I hope you will find a fuller
feeling for your own festivals and a latent creative talent for
them within your domestic or working situation. I also hope your
festivals become a real link between your own spirit and the spirit
that weaves through the year.' - from the Introduction The esoteric
path of development described in this book is suitable for anyone,
regardless of religious persuasion. It offers ways - through
meditative and contemplative work - in which each of us can
participate in the yearly festive and seasonal cycle. Festivals of
the Year takes as its premise that the Earth is a living being. In
earlier ages, she existed through her inherent vitality, but now
the Earth needs us to help nourish and sustain her. Basing his work
on the research of Rudolf Steiner, the author indicates how we can
participate in festivals through our inner, spiritual self. The
human 'I' or ego can be enhanced by accessing forces from beyond
Nature, which in turn can re-enliven the Earth. Engaging with
festivals through meditative effort, we become creators ourselves,
transcending the purely commemorative, and entering a living,
creative dynamic. The practical exercises in this book enable an
experience of this, allowing for a perception of the true power of
Christianity.
