Friday 3rd April
Today is Good Friday, marking the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. In biodynamic agriculture, Good Friday and Holy Saturday are recognised as unfavourable times for sowing, transplanting, or interacting with the soil. The occasion speaks to a profound earthly moment, one of deep rupture and quiet transformation, that is intimately connected to the land and our activity upon it. The land itself seems to enter a gentle pause, a resting gesture where life draws inward and becomes still, and in this same movement we may feel our own hearts soften and turn inward. Rather than working or shaping, we are invited simply to be present, to observe, and to hold a quiet awareness of what is passing through both earth and human life. This is a time for stillness, reflection, and remembrance of an event that Rudolf Steiner placed at the centre of history.
