Inspirations of Mani for the Future of Christianity and the Redemption of Evil

 October 10
3 pm ET – 2 pm CT – 1 pm MT – Noon PT – 8 pm UK – 9 pm CET

Description: Did something of the Manichean impulse flow into the mission of the School of Chartres and from there to the Cathars? Alanus ab Insulis was a famous teacher in the school of Chartres. He wrote an important book The Anti- Claudian on the Nature of the world and humanity. He was in contact with the Cathers in the South of France and had discussions with them on good and evil the world and in humanity. Frans will show how this has a great actuality around our opinion on the earth, climate change and the role of humanity.

Bio: Frans Lutters (MA) has been a Waldorf teacher in the Netherlands for forty years. He is the author of over 15 books of which 7 are also in English; such as Who Is Harry Potter?; The Grail Mystery and the Seven Liberal Arts; and An Exploration into the Destiny of the Waldorf School Movement. He is worldwide known as a lecturer and author.

Astrosophy and Birth Charts

This course presents a picture, with the help of astrosophy, of the archetypal human being’s biography, life cycle, and cosmic rhythms.  You will be introduced to sidereal birth charts as star maps of prenatal intentions expressed through the zodiac, moving planets, aspects, and the twelve houses.

This series of four lectures was presented in 2015 by Brian Gray, who at that time was the Director of the Foundation Program in Anthroposophy at Rudolf Steiner College.

Although not a prerequisite, the course Human Being and the Stars, which is currently available on WiseCosmos.org, provides a very helpful background and is the intended foundation for what is presented in this course.
