Description:     

From autumn to the festival of Christmas, we experience different gestures of
love through the beings that we celebrate and revere. With the archangel Michael, a storm of spiritual love-force goes over the world. Deep in our “I” being we feel called upon to make decisions, to place ourselves at his side, with thinking as well as with devoted will-activity. Nowadays we should not entreat Michael; we should be his co-workers. He rides on the rays of a spiritual education into the darkness of civilization.

Saint Martin moves our soul, he who shared his cloak with a beggar, who goes into
battle without weapons. Compassion and love are combined with hardness towards himself, severity towards those he considers unfaithful to Christ. His love
is in the deed; it does not remain only in compassion, in feeling.
