For the lantern walk, we turn inward, closer to winter, while carrying with us our lanterns like a warm spark of sun.
This light theme is intentional. Here in New England, the strong light of summer becomes the vivid, color-filled light of fall, and as winter days approach, the leaves fall and the sunlight dwindles. The summer light does not disappear but in fact remains, just in a different form.
The flowers, for example, derived from the energy of the sun, have transformed into fruit and seed for the winter, carrying summer’s light through to spring. Similarly, the sap of the tree has moved down in the roots, preserving the sweet light deep inside until spring.
People can do the same. It is, in fact, the strength of our own inner lights that guides us in good work and good deeds. We are able to gather in strength, to take the light-filled wonder of the outside world and carry it within.
We don’t speak about this with the children, but through the quiet joy of lantern walk they will feel the beautiful mood, a mood arising out of this impulse.
In Waldorf education, this theme of inner light will grow through the years as the children grow. Teachers honor the belief that each individual child has their own inner light to be discovered and brought into the world as they grow.
Last Friday evening, the DEI and WCA committees co-hosted a movie night. The featured movie, “13th“ was timely in nature and documents America’s painful relationship with racial inequalities. The movie sparked discussion around what we as a community can do to teach our students this element of our history as well as move our community into action. This documentary is certainly worth watching! Much gratitude to the DEI and WCA committees for designing such a powerful event.
