Michaelmas is the holiday of St. Michael, the archangel on 29th September. The holiday is near the autumn equinox, at a time when days become noticeably shorter and people are preparing for the cold months coming. It is also the time to find our inner light and courage to face challenges and stand out for what is right. It is typically the first holiday in a Waldorf school year.
Knight: A knight is a brave warrior fighting evil forces to save others. St. Michael, the patron saint of knighthood, hurled down headlong the Devil himself. Knights were often compared to God’s angels fighting for a better world, and being knighted was considered a sacrament similar to baptism.
