Calendar of the Soul

The Calendar of the Soul are verses for each week of the year written by Rudolf Steiner. He wrote these verses to help the reader to become aware of how our soul life is connected to the natural cycle of the year. We read each week's verse every morning before we start the day. We read it in order to still our minds for a moment as we prepare ourselves for the coming day. We hope that as the year progresses the verses will help us remain connected to ourselves and to what is unfolding in the natural world.

The verses begin the week of April 7-13th. We are now in week 10.

Week 10, June 9 to June 15

To heights of summer skies
The radiant Being of the Sun arises;
It takes my human feeling
Into its own wide realms of space.
deep down and dimly I am made aware
that one day I shall know;
A divine-like being felt your presence there.
