The Spiritual Tasks of the Homemaker

Manfred Schmidt Brabant

In recent years the role of 'homemaker' has been somewhat derided. Women are urged to return to work as soon as possible following childbirth. Homemaking is not seen to be real work, and nannies and childminders have been called in to fill the gap.

Can homemaking be seen as an important role again? Can it become a true profession?

Schmidt-Brabant takes the point of view that the old understanding of the homemakers role needs to be enlivened with spiritual knowledge. We can discover, for example, how to work with the non-physical aspects of the household, its etheric and astral qualities, and with the various spiritual beings connected to the home. Here is a generous helping of advice and many ideas that will help all those who's destiny it is to develop a career as one who cares for home and family.

John and Helen Philbrick

Long out-of-print and now reissued, this classic introduction to biodynamic gardening introduces the reader/gardener to an obvious, often forgotten principle: gardening is about living things, life forces, life as such.

This book is an excellent simple practical guide to help the beginning gardener create a garden that is a living organism.

Developing Biodynamic Agriculture - Reflections on Early Research

Adalbert Count Keyserlingk

Biodynamic agriculture was launched at a conference held on the Koberwitz estate in Germany. Adalbert Count Keyserlingk, the son of the hosts, was present, and this book reflects his lifelong absorption in biodynamics. It presents a wide range of material, including the Count's personal experiences of Rudolf Steiner at work, his reflection on practical research and experimentation (including photographic documentation) and descriptions of biodynamic preparations. More than anything else, however, his words successfully convey the enthusiasm, the exalted feelings and the power of initiative that arose from Rudolf Steiner's work in this field: to found a method of farming which can provide nutritious and safe food for the future of humanity.
