| We invite you to explore our three free video offerings which explore various aspects of the Archangel Michael as we reflect upon and celebrate Michaelmas.

| | "At Michaelmas the Earth starts to inhale. We take back within ourselves everything we have received from the cosmos through the Christ impulse. Michael comes to meet humanity and has to overcome the Ahrimanic dragon. In uniting himself with the Earth’s in-breathing, Michael prepares the way for Christ Jesus."
~ Exploring Themes in the Calendar of the Soul, Morelli Luigi pp 23

| | Living in Love in the Service of Archangel Michael - Inspiring Humanity's Path Forward Into Freedom

Rudolf Steiner describes Earth evolution as consisting of two phases – Mars and Mercury. In this inspiring presentation, Brian Gray describes humanity’s path forward. Within the Mars phase of Earth evolution, forces of aggression and self-interest dominate our consciousness, affecting how we interact with one another and the world. The Mars phase is crucial for individual development – we need to develop a strong sense of self on our path toward becoming free and loving individuals. Buddha gave the Eightfold Path – a series of soul exercises to help us tame our aggressive Mars natures. Christ then kindled the seed of Mercury forces by lovingly uniting with humanity – bestowing on each of us our true higher "I" to transform self-interest into freedom and love for others and for the world. We may now cultivate the curative forces of Mercury to heal the wounds inflicted by our self-interest and aggression, transforming them into devotion and loving interest for the world and others. The Archangel Michael serves as "the countenance of Christ", illuminating our path to becoming Spirits of Freedom and Love. Rudolf Steiner gives profound descriptions of the true nature of love in many sources mentioned in this presentation. To this is added the verse, Victorious Spirit!, which holds the key to progress on our path of development, how we can live in love in the service of Michael and the Christ. |

A video presentation by Lelan Harris |
| This Michaelmas presentation begins with imaginations of Christ as the image of the invisible God and Archangel Michael as the countenance of Christ. To this is added observations about what it means in our time to be identified as a "Michaelic" human being -- that is, people whose visage, quality of presence, and actions manifest the archangelic presence and activity of Michael. This leads to considerations about steps and stages along the path to becoming the countenance of Michael.

| | | | The School of Michael: Soul Health in an Age of Falsehood
A video presentation by Dennis Klocek
|
| | Dennis Klocek introduces us to the development of morphological consciousness as a remedy for the astral storms created when we are surrounded by lying that creates doubt and anxiety. Illness has its entry through uncertainty of the soul. Learning how to gain what Rudolf Steiner articulated as the twelve points of view stretches our mind and soul in order to encompass each perspective. When we do, we become a true human, an 'I' capable of relating to the way things are structured in the divine world. That is what the Archangel Michael is trying to teach us. |
