Concert Songs
of the inner and outer Temple by Nicolaas
de Jong
These songs, written by Nicolaas, each express a special
trace or organ within our body and soul. Besides they give doorways to
the elemental worlds around us, by the use of specific cosmical rhythms
and tonalities. Parts of the concert is an improvisation by singing together
with the audience, to open up consciousness through the heart. The improvisations
are done with a lyre.
Time: 25th
of May from 20 – 22 p.m.
Place: Waldorf School Hereford at Little Dewchurch
Costs: £ 5, -
Workshop
Know yourself through the senses
Through the sense-organs we experience ourselves and
the surrounding world and are capable of finding our way. Normally we
are hardly aware of the deeper outer and inner influences.
By observing thoroughly what effect a certain sense-impression has and
by expressing this impression and what it calls forth in us through clay-modeling,
one can get a steadier relation towards the muddle of every day impressions.
One can observe in clay-modelling the feeling it provokes, the inner soul
space as a reflection of the organs. Besides this one can get clear on
the intentions of one’s own will and the specific ideals (also causing
a more conscious dealing with hindrances), by which one can become more
clear what one wants to realize within one’s lifetime. Fascinating
above all is that through this way of working, creative abilities are
being stimulated; therefore the workshops may be interesting to those
who want to do more with organic sculpturing and modeling.
Time: Saturday 26th
of May, from 10 a.m. – 17 p.m.
Place: Waldorf School Hereford at Little Dewchurch
Costs: £ 40, -
Workshop Experiencing
the Angels all through the Elemental Beings
With directed sayings and harp music we will try to
approach and observe the different Angel hierarchies through the Elemental
Beings that they have brought forth. Through improvised communal singing
we attune our soul to the Angels and their workings. Through clay modelling
we make more conscious our inner observations. And thus in exercising
in a playful way, we grow through our observations towards the spiritual
realities.
Time: Whitsunday
27th of May from 10 a.m. – 17 p.m.
Place: Waldorf School Hereford at Little Dewchurch

Workhop Developing
the male and female life forces within oneself through the arousal of
kundalini energy
At the church of Kilpeck there has been worked by
the ancient Celts with the male-female poles of existence. Both men and
women have a different approach to the life forces that quell forth from
the Earth and nourish our being.
In this workshop we will work with the kundalini energy, entering our
body at the tailbone. We learn to observe its flow through the inner organs
and lotus flowers. With the aid of specific rhythms and colour singing,
we can intensify our experience. After each path in ourselves we model
out in clay what we have observed. This helps to make the experiences
more conscious. Thus we can learn to recognize and direct the inner energy
flows.
Time: Whitmonday
28th of May from 10 a.m. – 17 p.m.
Place: Churchyard at Kilpeck

These courses are given by Nicolaas de Jong,
a Dutch artist, astrosopher and landscape healer. He developed methods
in Goethean science working with music and form. He writes books, music
and music theatre plays, makes sculptures and musical instruments. He
performs his music for people and elemental beings in nature, and has
developed methods of landscape healing in which the cooperation between
man, elemental being and Angel is being restored. Besides he gives courses
and longer educations in Europe and the US for inner development and landscape
healing. The methods are being set up to develop the spiritual faculties
of inspiration and intuition.

Training
Music Therapy on
the Basis of Astrosophy
- analysis of a birth horoscope to temperament, constitution,
soul type, world vision, soul constellations and the karma, from astrosophical
insights
- working in music from the four human bodies of spirit, soul, life body
and the physical, from astrophonical insights. This means working to tonality,
rhythm foot and measure type.
- tackling concrete of life areas and body processes
- curing by means of healing sounds and rhythms
- handles to self insight and schooling
by Nicolaas M. de Jong, astrosopher, writer, sculptural
and musical artist, instrument builder.
In this music therapy training there is a specific
treatment to the four human bodies. Briefly said can the spirit, or an
idea, be recognised as a musical motive, that is carried by a tonality,
on a rhythm and in a measure type. What concerns musical elaborations,
this includes targeted work with rhythm feet and measure types. Rhythm
feet bring us in contact with the different life areas, and measure types
with the organ processes. These are inner reflections in time of the planet
movements towards the Earth, which bring forth our organ processes. These
inspirative path through the heart has become accessible since the crucifixion
of Christ in the life world in 1942.
The starting point for the music therapy is the vast system of interpretation
of a birth horoscope about problems and possibilities of the individual
development, developed in the astrosophy. Each component is being approached
in an artistic way.
With music the soul contents and willing gestures can be brought up in
the consciousness, and it is possible to can be worked at parts that are
out of balance. Clay modelling helps to condense the observations. This
gives an insight in processes in its own inner world, view on onesidednesses
and weaknesses and new possibilities for development. There is being worked
with the voice and the lyre. There will be moved in an experiencing way
on intervals and tonalities. Rhythms and measure types are being walked
upon or danced. All working methods are phenomenological of nature.
This training gives handles to be able work with patients to specific
problems in a directed way. Initially there is being worked with ones
own horoscope, which gives oneself insights through experience. This can
be applied at others later.
With music one works on the soul level, with the rhythms on life processes,
and with the measure types targeted to the body organs. Thus a pallet
of possibilities arises to be able to work with patients in a directed
way.
The first part of the training offers a basis
concept framework of astrosophy from the imaginative
experience, through which a birth horoscope can be read as an analysis
of the bodies, the temperament, the constitution, soul type, world vision,
strong and weak body processes, soul qualities and conflicts, and the
direction of the karma.
In the second part of training
these elements are approached musically in tonality (major and church
scales), rhythm and measure types. These are being experienced by means
of communal singing, movement and dancing. These elements are being integrated
and there will be worked aimed on planet positions (soul regions) and
configurations.
In the third part there
will be practised with the musical components in a directed way, and inner
perceptions of the planet positions can be modelled out in clay.
Moreover an introduction is being given of the lyres as developed in the
Rune workshop which each has the form gesture of one the zodiacal star
images as sound producing principle in it. These can tighten up the therapy
still further.
It is worked with voice, lyre and the body. Moreover
inner experiences are being modelled out in clay. Some knowledge of the
musical notation is necessary. Take along easily sitting clothing and
shoes.
There will be worked with the book ` Karmic Astrosophy - a practically
experiencable method in images, music and plastic. Costs € 32. -.

Education
Working with
elemental beings and landscape healing at Meppel, the Netherlands.
We live in a time where we
see many natural coherences and balances fade around us. Mostoften we
feel we cannot do anything about it, while the industry and urbanisation
takes its charge. Yet little is known about our capacities to renew our
cooperation with nature and the beings working in these. In the Middle
Ages this was still common, and people used to consider nature beings
for crop growing and house building; there was cooperation. After this
capacity has faded, as well as the knowledge about it, now our consciousness
is widening again, and we can approach the natural beings, when we exercise
our inner senses and capacities to that. In this we can learn to cooperate
with them again, so we can reshape our surroundings together anew. This
is a stroke against nowadays apathy.
With every perception through the senses, we absorp elemental beings as
well that form these; they are the contents of our thoughts. Normally
we are not aware of this, but they do work and maintain nature and even
our own physical body. As these beings are soul beings, we can contact
them through our feelings; as they work in the life world of formative
forces, we can get in tune with them through the rhythms they live in.
Singing together may help opening up our souls, and the perceptions become
more conscious when we model these out afterwards in clay, thus opening
new inner senses for them, through which we can characterise them better.
In this workshop we will first sing atmospheric colours and the formative
forces that make a plant grow, which we will model out. After this, we
will go and look for different elemental beings in nature, and try to
work with them, integrating them in a landscape unity, called a landscape
temple. Through this we can learn to recognize these beings in other places
and start to develop lazndscape curing, for man is busy to destroy natural
landscapes, and has the task to reorganize it as well. it’s up to
us.
The methods of investigation, singing together, clay modelling and perceiving
with the body come from phenomenology (developed initially by the German
poet Goethe) and include methods of astrosophy, connecting the human physiology
and consciousness with the workings of the stars and of nature.
The Dutch writer, artist, astrosopher and landscape healer Nicolaas de
Jong has developed these methods of elemental observation and landscape
healing for more than 20 years. He gives courses and seminars in Europe
and the US.
