Cogratulations Beloved – But 1st, There are a couple of provisional caveats – A reminder – that the beautiful truth won’t always be simple or shiny & bright; a good marriage takes work to gleam & keep green…O yes, it can get murky & super dense, convoluted even, or perhaps, if you’re lucky - kaleidoscopic - the bird song whispering sweet somethings may sound more like a marching band - than a panpipe playing a quaint folk song - or a pounding dissonant kinky version of Stravinsky’s Rite Of Spring (if you’re playing cowbell) When you ‘Give Peace & Dance’ (remember when?) you’re likely to be quivery & a-twitter in your vows due to encounters with the Great Unknown – arrivals from beyond the Wild Blue Yonder – that will flip your wig, recalibrate your philosophy of life, & pique your cognitive curiosity. So Rejoice… Your old self, which may have become stuck in a gnarly snarl, deep inside your old habits must become the fuel you will use to burn away what does not serve…This bonfire will liberate the New True You. Let the flames circulate a fresh combustion in your holy blood – & a spiraling sense of release & purpose will predominate… Then, as the New You, commits to the mystic union of Love & Freedom, flexing its vital force in a foreshadowing of future willing And now let us open to the mighty being Michael: Michael: O human being, as your Time Spirit, I stand in uprightness sending you courage to redeem the cosmic intelligence. Hold with me, the countenance of the Being of Love in your heart-thinking; & know the Wisdom of my Mother, The Divine Sophia, in your purified soul; so that you may embody Anthroposophia. For on this May Day you are invited to join together these two parts of yourself, in an Alchemical union; remembering the promise you made whilst in my supersensible school; & then later as we enacted the Cosmic Cultus. Now, here on Earth, you, O human being, are called to reunite the Warmth & The Light. Hear now from the Guardian at the Threshold: Guardian: You are invited to contemplate your ‘Declaration of Intent’ – What are the vows you will make to yourself? What are the intentions that you will consecrate in the Temple of your Heart? What do you want to come forth from this union of: Soul & Spirit – Wisdom & Love – Warmth & Light?… The Union of the Being of Love, with the Wisdom of Anthroposophia – The joining of Warmth – to the Light of human Understanding… Blessed Be all those about to be united thru the interweaving of Love & Light. Blessed be our allies in the Spirit World, aligned with Love & Light, who attend us in this glorious ceremony of rededication… Dearly Beloved, I now pronounce you Christos-Sophia - Receive the kiss of your Higher Self as you jump the broom to Consciously Cross the Threshold… xox Listen to this Beltaine offering on the ‘I Think Speech Podcast‘ 3 May - UNION w/ ~hag at the Bridget Center This indoor and outdoor celebration offers the opportunity to learn about how ancient traditions honored this season of greening, bird song, plantings, birth and fertility, and how our old and new traditions and actions can align and contribute to the healing and abundance of the natural world. Learn from storyteller-wisdom keeper-interdenominational minister Hazel Archer Ginsberg about the Celtic tradition of Bealtaine and how other ancient cultures revered these seasonal markers in the Cycle of the Seasons. We will offer gratitude and blessings to the land, soil, plants, and all those that care for and steward the earth and its animals by making and applying biodynamic farm preparations to enliven and restore the soil. We will learn about Bridget’s Gardens, its permaculture design plans and participate in planting perennial native wildflowers, black currants, red osierdogwoods, willows, and elderberries. Come plant with us and take some home too! Clark Stamm (Acting Director of Bridget Center, Permaculturist, and Artist), and Angela Curtes (Grounded LLC and fellow Bridget Center Mission Circle member) will facilitate these activities.

Franziska Steiner their mother, is said to have suffered a severe shock from a railway accident shortly before the birth of her son Gustav. The fact that their youngest child was born deaf may be related to this. As seen from the family’s letters, Gustav required constant care and supervision. At times he was very nervous and excited and ‘«’caused quite unpleasant behavior as a result’. Gustav Steiner loved to read the newspaper, so Leopoldine his siter always had to provide him with newspapers. The fact that he liked to eat a lot made the sister sorrowful in the times when it was so difficult to get food. When the sister could no longer take care of her brother because of her increasingly deteriorating eyes, a relative, Mrs. Barth, first looked after the siblings. However, Leopoldine Steiner didn’t get along with her. Then the nurse and anthroposophist Margarethe Karner took over the care of the siblings. When she herself fell ill in the 1930s, Gustav Steiner joined the Jahn-Hamburger family in 1936, first in Vienna, then in Gresten near Scheibbs in Lower Austria during the war years. Thanks to Wolfgang Vögele’s initiative to record the memories of the daughter of this family, Gertrud Schmied-Hamburger, we know a lot about Gustav Steiner’s last years. Gertrud Schmied-Hamburger reports that he was able to speak a few words, but «of course, he spoke to us in sign language». When Gustav wanted something from someone, he tried to make himself understood with a kind of beep. He was «not shy of people at all» but approached all people and asked them about their name days. He was «actually of robust health. He was loving and very happy to help, as far as he could help […]. He got us wood […]. He did a great job of that. He also untied strings and picked seeds. He was always helpful. He never freaked out.» Obviously, his agitated nervousness, which is often reported in the family’s letters, had subsided in the later years of his life. It is touching that in his later years, he loved to copy the works of his brother: first many prophecies and the soul calendar, then followed by ‹How to know higher worlds?› and ‹Theosophy›. As Hede Hamburger reported to Johanna Mücke on June 23, 1937, this copying work was «by itself the most important» to him. At the end of April 1942, Gustav probably had a kind of intestinal obstruction and had to be admitted to the clinic in Scheibbs, where apparently no medical measures were applied. Gustav Steiner died of heart failure there on the first night after his admission. ~Anthrowiki If you want to support the Biodynamic Farming done on Zinniker Farm, you are invited to become a paid subscriber, with all donations going directly to the farm Greetings Friend, you currently a free subscriber to Cognitive Ritual.
