SUMMARY:Lecture – Mary Adams – Whitsun in the Year’s Festival Cycle on Zoom 5:30 pm
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday, May 7 – Note 5:30 pm Pacific Time\nWhitsun in the Year’s Festival Cycle \nLecture – Mary Adams\non Zoom 5:30 pm Pacific Time\n \nThough the spiritual new year is said to begin at Easter, Karl König describes a mood of fulfillment at Whitsun, just 50 days later, followed by a seasonal pause before the cycle begins again at St. John’s. \nWith this framing as our context, Mary Stewart Adams will lead us in a consideration of the year’s festival cycle, and how festival life works with real consequence in the destiny of a community, especially in challenging times, for it is here we may create the substance for the spiritual world to use where it is most needed in the world. More and more this requires our conscious and active participation, but what does this conscious, active participation look like? \nFurther, as the culminating moment of the sacred Easter Festival in this 100th anniversary year of Rudolf Steiner’s death, this year’s Whitsun is unique and potentially consequent for the next iteration of anthroposophy in the world. In order that the centenary celebrations and observances be more than a remembrance of things past, we are invited to consider Rudolf Steiner’s Leading Thoughts 168-170 (attached), and to prepare inwardly by reviewing our “festival life” from St. John’s 2024 to Easter 2025. This preparation is suggested so that it may serve as a foundation from which we can share ideas about what is needed for our going forward together\n\n\n\n\n\nWe appreciate your support of the ongoing work of The Faust Branch in making these offerings available.\nAdmission for lectures (no one excluded for lack of funds) :\nFaust Branch members: $5, Non- members: $10, Supporting Members and Donors – No Fee\nAdmission fees may be paid On-line at https://www.faustbranch.org/ ( https://www.faustbranch.org/ ) or  By Check to Sacramento Faust Branch (mail to Treasurer, Carol Nordaas, 7620 Woodglen Dr, Fair Oaks, CA 95628)\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/82997846167?pwd=c8AqbJlPiDEFbZbBbaoq8twAjznnTI.1 ( https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82997846167?pwd=c8AqbJlPiDEFbZbBbaoq8twAjznnTI.1 )\nMeeting ID: 829 9784 6167\nPasscode: 651579\nOne tap mobile\n+16699006833,,82997846167#,,,,*651579# US (San Jose)\n+16694449171,,82997846167#,,,,*651579# US\nDial by your location\n• +1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n• +1 669 444 9171 US\nFind your local number: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/kdQ39DBkDA\nSince 2023, Mary Stewart Adams has been general secretary of the Anthroposophical Society in America.
