Second Advent Sunday, Plant Kingdom
Event created by Annie Haas
Please RSVP if you can so that we can get an idea of attendees. This description will be updated with a zoom link!
December 4th Plant Kingdom
- Light 2nd Candle of Advent (optional that you can light your own if you have an advent ring! I will have mine next to me during the zoom that collects objects from the kingdoms)
- I will play some lap harp and read Steiner’s Calendar of the Soul verse for the week two times
- Music or poetry or a story (please contact me if you would like to share a song or poem or story related to the plant kingdom. I’m happy to share something if nobody volunteers but want to give everyone a chance to share something! Many of you have beautiful things to share! It does not have to be your own creation, but it can be! Feel free to sing, play an instrument, read a favorite poem, or tell a personal story or read written short story from a book. This enriches our time together and helps our reflection on this kingdom!)
- I will be sharing short plant kingdom stories from the book Hidden Stories in Plants by Anne Pellowski
- Quick craft! We are making an optional ornament. All you need is cinnamon sticks, string, evergreen, and if you are able to pre-dehydrate orange slices (can use an oven on lowest setting if no dehydrator) and get creative! Please feel free to use anything at all, there are no rules here. I will bring other ideas of things you can craft this week!
-
- Plant kingdom object meditation. Make sure you have at least one different item from the plant kingdom. It can be a branch, pinecone, potted plant, flower, fossil, etc! We are going to sit in silence for just a couple minutes with that object and then share what came to us as we sat in meditation.
- Open discussion of the plant kingdom and how it relates to us as human beings. I shared a handout in the Clubs section for deeper meditation this week and may discuss some of it.
- Closing verse from the Calendar of the Soul
- Blow out the candle and end session! Spend the coming week in reflection of this kingdom and feel free to do so with your children ✨
I will stop the recording and we can also chat about what to bring the children this week. Don’t forget to go visit the Clubs section this week and see all the plant kingdoms books I posted with links and other activities that everyone may share! There were lots of great shares last week from the mineral!
