Blessings on the 50th Anniversary of EARTHDAY dear friends – In my mediation this morning this Steiner quote from ‘Outline of Esoteric Science‘ came to mind: ” The ‘cosmos of wisdom’ is developing into a ‘cosmos of love.’ The exalted Sun Being we were able to characterize in describing Christ’s evolution manifests as the all-encompassing example of love, planting the seed of love in the inner-most core of the human being. From there, it is meant to flow out into all of evolution.

Just as wisdom, which formed earlier, discloses itself in the forces of nature, love itself will appear as a new natural force in all phenomena in the future. This is the mystery of all future evolution; that our knowledge & everything we do out of a true understanding of evolution sow seeds that must ripen into love. The greater the power of the love that comes into being, the more we will be able to accomplish creatively on behalf of the future.

Blessing on these seeds which we are sowing

22 April 2020 – EARTHDAY EVERYDAY! Speaking with the Stars”: Bright Arcturus is climbing high in the east these evenings. Equally bright Capella is descending high in the northwest, to the upper right of Venus (occult Mercury). Arcturus & Capella stand at exactly the same height above your horizon. Arcturus is the brightest star of Bootes, the Cowherd. It’s the pointy end of the Kite asterism formed by Bootes’s brightest stars. The Kite, rather narrow, lies on its side to Arcturus’s left. Its head, at the far left, is bent slightly upward.

“We can speak of Karma not only in the case of individual persons, for man should not consider himself as a single being. If the individual were to rise even a few miles above the earth, the result would be the same as if the finger severed itself from the body.

If we penetrate into spiritual science we are literally forced to admit through this knowledge that we should not delude ourselves to the extent of insisting that we are single beings. This applies to the physical world and even more to the spiritual world. Man belongs to the whole world and his destiny is involved with that of the entire world. Karma touches not only the individual, but also the life of whole nations.”

John Muir is remembered on Earthday (his birthday was April 21st1838 ) also known as “John of the Mountains”, an American naturalist, author, environmental philosopher, glaciologist & early advocate for the preservation of wilderness in the United States. His letters, essays, & books describing his adventures in nature, especially in the Sierra Nevada, have been read by millions. His activism has helped to preserve the Yosemite Valley, Sequoia National Park & many other wilderness areas.

The Sierra Club, which he founded, is a prominent American conservation organization. The 211-mile John Muir hiking trail in the Sierra Nevada, was named in his honor, along with  Muir Woods National Monument, Muir Beach, John Muir College, Mount Muir, Camp Muir & Muir Glacier.

Muir was noted for being an ecological thinker, political spokesman, & religious prophet, whose writings became a personal guide into nature for countless individuals, making his name “almost ubiquitous” in the modern environmental consciousness.

During his lifetime John Muir published over 300 articles & 12 books. Muir has been called the “patron saint of the American wilderness” & its “archetypal free spirit.” As a dreamer & activist, his eloquent words changed the way Americans saw their mountains, forests, seashores, & deserts.

Muir exalted wild nature over human culture and civilization, believing that all life was sacred. He moved beyond the Transcendentalism of Emerson to a “biocentric perspective on the world”. He did so by describing the natural world as “a conductor of divinity,” & his writings often made nature synonymous with God.

My dear sisters & brothers, let’s make every day Earth Day!

  1. Awesome stuff, Hazel. Too bad we can’t keep all these reflections in view for continual consideration. I am still working on Casper Ace, who I think is a really positive influence here and makes me even more enthusiastic. He recently wrote about the Shakespeare controversy, and here we have April 23rd as the birth of the Bard of Stratford, which I am sure you will acknowledge soon.

    I like where you close with John Muir of the 19th century, and say how he extended Emerson’s Transcendentalism with a more centric and naturalistic viewpoint. Of course, we know that transcendentalism in America was a very specific effort and campaign to attempt to offset the encroaching materialism which would eventually lead to the Civil War between the states, c. 1861-1865. One of its important representatives was Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, who gave us poems which paralleled a similar venture occurring in Finland at the same time, and duly recognized as the Kalevala. Steiner spoke about the Kalevala in lectures from Finland in April 1912. Yet, he never expressed the extraordinary similarity with what was going on in America at the same time.
