Palm Sunday – Easter

Festival Celebrations organized by the Cultural Coordinating Committee (CCC) of the Anthroposophical Society.

Beginning Sunday March 29th (Palm Sunday) we will meet in the mornings at different homes (please see schedule of times and places below). Our schedule will include activities which we hope will bring us closer to an understanding of the planetary spheres. On Palm Sunday we will work with the sphere of the Sun. Monday will be a study of the sphere of the Moon. Tuesday will be a study of the sphere of Mars. Wednesday will be a study of the sphere of Mercury. Maundy Thursday will be a study of the sphere of Jupiter. Good Friday will be a study of the sphere of Venus. Holy Saturday will be a study of the sphere of Saturn. On Easter we will reflect on the week and the sphere of the resurrected Sun.datauri-file

  • Sounding the planetary scale for each of the 7 days on the lyre.
  • Experiencing the Eurythmy  gesture for each planetary day.
