Typologies - What makes us unique? Exploring Temperament, Soul Type, Repetitions and Patterns in Life Canberra
2018-04-27 19:00 - 2018-04-29 16:00 (Australia/Sydney) | Orana School, Kurrajong Room, Unwin Place, Weston, ACT, 2611, Australia
Two archetypes offer guiding images for this workshop:

The four-fold archetype for Temperaments which are, also related to the four elements earth, water, fire and air.
And the seven-fold archetype of those seven planets visible to the naked eye.

Seven Qualities and Rhythms, derived from the archetypal image of the Planets are introduced as windows for creatively exploring events and qualities in human biog- raphy and personality. The Seven Soul Types each give a distinct soul colouring which influences us in the way we meet people and situations. Insights into the Four Temperaments help us to understand habitual patterns. The way our Temperament and Soul Type interrelate, affects many aspects of our lives including our inner balance.
The reflective- and self-reflective work on this course gives dynamic and qualitative perspectives on one’s own and other personalities.
Our exploration will be supported with creative exercises.
At the Kurrajong room, Orana School.

T.S. Eliot’s ‘Four Quartets’ for Movement, Voice and Cello Warranwood
2018-04-14 14:00 (Australia/Sydney) | The Michael Centre, 37a Wellington Park Drive, Warranwood, Vic, Australia
Considered by many as a masterpiece of the Western canon, the revolutionary use of language employed by Eliot, as inspired by Beethoven’s late quartets, crystallises the world of eurythmy, enabling the artists to permeate the barrier between the visible and the unseen world, allowing the audience a glimpse beyond the veil.
Eliot considered Beethoven’s late quartets to be ‘inexhaustible’, introducing a new grace and freedom. When performed in concert with Eurythmy, Eliot’s “Four Quartets” elicits a powerful, profound response and an experience of the forces of language.
The art of eurythmy uses dynamic movement and gesture as an embodiment of the spoken word.
Eurythmist: Mark Neil, Voice: Irish born actor, Dennis Coard, Cello: Gotthard Killian
