In search for eurythmy images online, the Editor came across this amazing photo of Linda and asked her to write about it. “The Santuario de Guadalupe is the oldest standing shrine in the U.S. The tone of high C was being moved in eurythmy when Linda’s gesture embraced the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe, the central figure on the full-wall Altar painting, merging her hands with that image in the very brief second that this photo was taken. A sacred image still there from the 1770’s, a timeless merging of the distant past with the present moment!

This course, which includes a review of all of the elements of tone eurythmy, was taught for many years by Lea van der Pals within various eurythmy therapy trainings, and the effectiveness of the exercises was shown in practice. When for health reasons Lea van der Pals was prevented from continuing to teach, she passed the torch to Annemarie Baeschlin, who took over holding the course and assisted Lea van der Pals in bringing the material into book form.

    The Fairy Tale Sleeping Beauty and the Year 2020 by Richard John Fraser Cooper

    The Fairy Tale Sleeping Beauty and the Year 2020 By Richard John Fraser Cooper Who has not been taken aback by the unprecedented events of this year? Going forward, we are undoubtedly in a time of change, but what kind of change, and what may be learnt from times of change that have gone before? Much can be learnt when we more deeply question the events of one hundred years ago and see the movement of spiritual history in relation to 2020. Rudolf Steiner has drawn our attention to looking at history through the lens of 100 years. Each 100- year phase carries 3 x 33 1/3 years within it, to make a total of one hundred. Steiner showed how the rhythm of 331/3 years mirrors the life of Christ on earth, from birth to crucifixion and resurrection. It is therefore important to explore how we may reconnect with what was initiated 100 years ago, in its positive and negative aspects, to gain insight into mankind’s struggle toward the Christ impulse. 100 years ago from the ominous outbreak of the Coronavirus Crisis in 2020, the official implementation of the Treaty of Versailles was signed on the 10 January, 1920. The Treaty, enforcing reparation payments on Germany for its war guilt, was instrumental in laying the groundwork for the historical events that would later unfold; notably, the rearmament of Germany leading to the Second World War and the world order that would later emerge after 1945. Quite aptly, the signing had taken place in the Hall of Mirrors at the Palace of Versailles, in Paris, France, being rather symbolic of an elite struggling to pursue their own national and established political concerns separated from any of the spiritual implications of the decisions before them.

    Harry Collison, MA – Kingston University Working Paper ______

    Harry Collison, MA – Kingston University Working Paper __________________________________________________________________________________________ HARRY COLLISON, MA (1868-1945): Soldier, Barrister, Artist, Freemason, Liveryman, Translator and Anthroposophist Sir James Stubbs, when answering a question in 1995 about Harry Collison, whom he had known personally, described him as a dilettante. By this he did not mean someone who took a casual interest in subjects, the modern usage of the term, but someone who enjoys the arts and takes them seriously, its more traditional use. This was certainly true of Collison, who studied art professionally and was an accomplished portraitist and painter of landscapes, but he never had to rely on art for his livelihood. Moreover, he had come to art after periods in the militia and as a barrister and he had once had ambitions of becoming a diplomat. This is his story.1 Collisons in Norfolk, London and South Africa Originally from the area around Tittleshall in Norfolk, where they had evangelical leanings, the Collison family had a pedigree dating back to at least the fourteenth century. They had been merchants in the City of London since the later years of the eighteenth century, latterly as linen drapers. Nicholas Cobb Collison (1758-1841), Harry’s grandfather, appeared as a witness in a case at the Old Bailey in 1800, after the theft of material from his shop at 57 Gracechurch Street. Francis (1795-1876) and John (1790-1863), two of the children of Nicholas and his wife, Elizabeth, née Stoughton (1764-1847), went to the Cape Colony in 1815 and became noted wine producers.2 Francis Collison received the prize for the best brandy at the first Cape of Good Hope Agricultural Society competition in 1833 and, for many years afterwards, Collison was a well- known name in the brandy industry.

  • Newsletter from the Performing Arts Section

    Newsletter from the Performing Arts Section

    Newsletter from the Performing Arts Section Easter 2015 FOREWORD Dear newsletter readers, dear colleagues I started as the new head of the Section for the Performing Arts in January. This means that I now have the opportunity to meet people, to get to know initiatives and to take a new look at many situations. I am eager to see what will develop and curious to discover more about the quality of Section life, whether individuals in their own community feel that their work is part of the Section or not and what kind of collaboration and support is needed today. In any case I want to ask all of you to get in touch at any time to let me know your suggestions, your wishes and requests, your criticisms: I am simply curious! Every ‘newbie’ is also given the opportunity to question the status quo in a quite new and perhaps ‘stupid’ way, so I am letting you know that the newsletter from the next issue will change in appearance. In exchange with Silke Kollewijn, Hanna Koskinen, Michael Kurtz and Marcel Sorge we have for now come to the following decisions: The newsletter will continue to contain: • substantial contributions relating to aspects of eurythmy, Creative Speech and music • reports with a broad, long-term perspective (and that will therefore still be of interest in years to come) • some biographies of those who have died • current discussions on themes relating to specific subjects • questions about the Section: what are the different ideas of the Section? How does the Section live? What can we share with each other on this theme in the forum that this newsletter offers? The newsletter will no longer contain: • appointments and announcements.

  • Participant Reviews of Tone Eurythmy Therapy Courses with Jan Ranck

    Participant Reviews of Tone Eurythmy Therapy Courses with Jan Ranck

    Participant Reviews of Tone Eurythmy Therapy Courses with Jan Ranck Report on the Course in Beaver Run, PA, USA (July 2017) How can we keep alive and nurture the inspirational legacy of Lea van der Pals? This question I have lived with and continue to live with as I strive to continue my own development as a eurythmist in addition to further developing my teaching capacities and insights. My summer was a very busy one, but lo and behold, a course was being offered by Jan Ranck in therapeutic tone eurythmy, and furthermore it was taking place right in my neighborhood. Most importantly, it was bringing Lea's genius and research to those there for the taking, as it were! Somehow, I would have to make space for this in my life. Through this intensive 9 day course, we were masterfully guided by our intrepid Jan into a deeply resonating experience of the profound and powerfully healing nature of the fundamental elements of tone eurythmy. We worked hard to tune ourselves in such a way that we could really discern the subtleties underlying these elements and we had to work hard too, to digest the wealth of content and material that needed to be covered. This course was attended by mostly eurythmists, but two lay-people joined us: an opera singing who brought her musical riches to our dialogue and an early childhood educator who connected very deeply with the work and had so many pertinent questions to ask. These two proved so valuable to our work and in some way (which I can't yet fully articulate ) allowed us and the process greater depth and reflection.

Can it be understood as so profound to consider it a second turning point of time? We will take a journey with the foundation stone, beginning with the laying of the first stone, a physical one, for the first Goetheanum, in 1913. Then — through the phoenix experience of the 1922/23 fire, and its journey back to earth a year later—we find it again, as a foundation stone meditation planted into our hearts. The introduction of The Foundation Stone Meditation was a central focus of the Christmas Conference week. It was one of three great gifts which Rudolf Steiner brought at this time as powerful spiritual tools for human evolution.
  • Rudolf Steiner's Theories and Their Translation Into Architecture

    Rudolf Steiner's Theories and Their Translation Into Architecture

    Rudolf Steiner’s Theories and Their Translation into Architecture by Fiona Gray B.A. Arts (Arch.); B. ARCH. (Deakin). Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Deakin University Submitted for examination January, 2014. Acknowledgements There are many people to whom I am greatly indebted for the support they have given me throughout this thesis. First among them are my supervisors. Without the encouragement I received from Dr. Mirjana Lozanovska I may never have embarked upon this journey. Her candour and insightful criticism have been immensely valuable and her intelligent engagement with the world of architecture has been a source of inspiration. Associate Professor Ursula de Jong has also made a very substantial contribution. Her astute reading and generous feedback have helped bring clarity and discipline to my thinking and writing. She has been a passionate advocate of my work and a wonderful mentor. Special thanks also to Professor Des Smith, Professor Judith Trimble and Guenter Lehmann for their ongoing interest in my work and the erudition and wisdom they graciously imparted at various stages along the way. My research has also been greatly assisted by a number of people at Deakin University. Thank you to the friendly and helpful library staff, especially those who went to great lengths to source obscure texts tucked away in libraries in all corners of the world. Thanks also to the Research Services Division, particularly Professor Roger Horn for the informative research seminars and much needed writing retreats he facilitated. My ambition to undertake this PhD was made possible by the financial support I received from a Deakin University Science and Technology scholarship.
