Calendar - Calendário


“Nutrition as it is today doesn’t supply the strength necessary for manifesting the spirit in physical life. A bridge can no longer be built from thinking to will and action. Food plants no longer contain the forces people need for this”- Dr. Steiner
Bio-dynamic methods seek to bring the powers of heaven and earth together, growing food with high nutritional value to aid the path of human beings on the planet.
Sowing and planting calendar by Maria Thun has been used at Quinta Cabeça do Mato for 15 years, following constellations of the zodiac, using astronomical aspects relevant for the plant growth, i.e.: root, leaf, flower, fruit days.


“Nutrição como é hoje em dia não dispõe da força necessária para manifestações do espírito na vida física. Já não se pode construir uma ponte entre os pensamentos e vontade e acções. A comida já não tem a força que as pessoas necessitam para isto.”-Dr. Steiner
Métodos biodinâmicos escolhem unir o céu e a terra, cultivando comida com um elevado valor nutricional para ajudar o ser humano no planeta.
O calendário de semear e plantar de Maria Thun já foi usado na Quinta Cabeça do Mato durante 15 anos, seguindo as constelações do Zodíaco, usando aspectos astronómicos importantes para o crescimento, ex: dias para raízes, folhas, flores, fruta.

"Miraculous organic farms will prosper wherever the land is sanctified and protected. This will begin a movement of self-contained Ecosystems, which will function as churches for the keepers of the Garden. Natural waterways will establish themselves in protected areas, and lucky farmers will find that flourishing wildlife and nature will return to their niches.

Listen carefully to the Earth Mother, and she will guide you in your dreamtime with her secrets for a safe and contented life."

"As quintas biológicas vão prosperar onde quer que a terra esteja santificada e protegida. Isto iniciará um movimento dos Ecosistemas autosuficientes, que funcionarão como igrejas para os guardas do Jardim. Os canais naturais estabelecer-se-ão nas áreas protegidas, e os agricultores afortunados irão ver a natureza a florescer e os animais selvagens a retornar aos seus ninhos.

Escuta com atenção a Mãe Terra, e ela guiár-te-á nos sonhos com os seus segredos para uma vida segura e satisfeita."




Message from the Hopi Elders



A Hopi Elder speaks
“you have been telling people that this is the eleventh hour, now you must go back and tell the people that this is the hour. And there are things to be considered
Were are you living?
What are you doing?
What are your relationships?
Are you in right relation?
Were is your water?
Know your garden.
It is time to speak your truth.
Create your community.
Be good to each other
And do not look outside your self for the leader
This could be a good time
There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift, that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the shore. They will feel they are being torn apart and will suffer greatly. Know the river has its destination. The elders say you must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above the water. And I say, see who is in there with you and CELEBRATE!
At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally. Least of all ourselves. For the moment we do, our spiritual grown and journey comes to a halt.
The time of the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves!!
Banish the word struggle from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.
WE ARE THE ONES WE ´VE BEEN WAITING FOR”
