Dornachian reactions?
Hallo, It is really interesting stuff that people are working with here, especially the cosmic pipes, homeopathic peppering and use radionic instruments and cards. According to the feedback on this list, it seems like these things work as good, or even better, than the original thing. At the same time we struggle in Europe with legislation that prohibits the making of the preparations, but the official point of view (regarding the ban on burying animal material) from the Goetheanum is (quote Manfred Klett) '... in the meantime we have to feel free to act illegally...' We only need one malignent journalist to broadcast these 'illegal' practices into public and along with some juicy allegations we can throw away our dear Demeter symbol. I would be interested to know the different points of view of the respective BDAA's in USA, OZ and NZ, as apparently there is a much more free approach to the use of the preps. Any contact with Dornach? Has Hugh already delivered a lecture at the Landbautagung?

Re: prep making illegal in the EU
It is true about the making of the preparations being illegal here in Europe at the moment. The problem is in the burying of the organs; after all the animal diseases that we have had the last years (BSE, foot and mouth, chicken disease now in Holland, etc) legislation has become very strict on what you can and can't do with animal organs. So we either have to make them illegally, or ? There have been some experiments in Holland by a creative BDfarmer who made the preparations without the organs, by putting the herbs at a certain place in a replica Cheops pyramide. Apparantly there are different levels in the pyramide, that correspond with ...? I would love to hear from other people if they have any alternative ways of manufacturing the preparations. What are these Rae cards that Loyd was writing about last week? Apparantly there has been a lot of creativity in applying them (broadcasters, BDmax ready-sprays, orgon accumulators), but how about making them? Does everybody here follow the basic recipe?

Or to make them in Europe now from existing preps. My experience in the USA is that preps I took there from NZ - and going thru several X ray machines -worked very well there. These preps you took to USA were they homeopathic preps? --- is it homoepathic preps that you are using in your Etherics 1000 sprays? And by dynamising them already when you make them into a homeopathic prep, you don't need to stir them for 1 hour any more? --- That would make sense wouldn't it? I am working my way through your Biodynamics Decoded and I am impressed I must say. It seems some pieces of the puzzle that were already moving through my hands are finding their places now. Thanks!

Re: Introduction
Hey, what do you use to accumulate orgone for a field or farm? One way that I have been using is with the help of a map. A map as a picture of my farm can be used to find energy spots, low energy places. Because of the correspondence between the map and the actual shape of my farm, there is a resonance. What I do to the map (after concentrating and aiming my intentions) has an effect on my farm. I have been using a small orgon-accumulator (plastic pipe with rolled alufoil+wrapping foil, centre is a knitting pen) to aim orgon energy for a certain limited amount of time to my fields. I guess it is in miniature what others do with a cosmic pipe? -- I have no experience with the cosmic pipe thus far. Reiki is a nice way too by the way. Part of the process is first to get in touch with the 'organizing principle' of the farm and find out what is needed: energy levels might be high enough and a certain form of information might be required, or the other way around. Because this 'contact with the organizing principle of the farm' (or deva, or farm organism or whatever you wish to call it) is quite an subjective thing, I would like to have more ways of getting information about the energetic state of my farm. Feeling energies with my hands personally for me is a stronger experience, and more relieble, because it is so 'real', a real feeling in my hands. A big difference for exemple between a bucket of water with preps unstirred, compared to the radiation/current after one hour stirring...

Introduction
Hello everybody,
I joined the BDNow list recently and I would like to take the opportunity
to introduce myself. My name is Arjen Huese and I work as biodynamic
vegetable grower at Emerson College in the UK (www.emerson.org.uk). We have
got a three year biodynamics training here, where I teach vegetable growing
and some soil subjects.
I used to have my own biodynamic market garden in Holland before I came to
England, 2.5 ha on a lovely black sandy soil. I worked with the spray
preparations, but also with other 'energetic' methods including meditation,
dowsing, feeling of the earth/crop radiation, colours and Bach flower
remedies.
I did a course with a man called Hans Andeweg, who has quite stirred up the
Dutch biodynamic movement, by teaching many farmers and growers how they
can feel the radiation of the soil/crops as well as using a pendulum to
determine certain parameters like Bovis value and Orgone. He uses these
parameters to establish if a field/crop/farm organism is healthy or might
need a certain input. If needed you can administer a certain energy (with
an Orgone accumulator) or information (using flower remedies, etc).
He got me quite excited about this, and I practised it for some years until
I had to quit my farm. Now I am teaching at Emerson, and working my way
through the Agriculture Course with a group of students and at a certain
point I gave them the assignment to explain how the spray prepararions
really work, what background is there behind them. Mistake! I realised I
didn't have a clue myself... The usual explanation of horn-manure =
calcium-force and horn-silica = silica-force seemed a bit too easy and
seemed to be contradicted by Steiner in other chapters of the AgC (espec.
ch.6). I studied further and encountered the four ethers, which were
somehow mentioned during my training at Warmonderhof in Holland, but nobody
ever explained them thoroughly or seemed/seems even to know a lot about it.
A book by Guenther Wachsmuth (' The Etheric Formative Forces in Cosmos,
Earth and Man', 1932) that I dug out from the Emerson Library proved very
informative, I would really recommend it to anybody interested in basic
understanding of the four ethers and the role they play in plant growth and
the way they move during the seasons. The latter might give some reasoning
behind the advice from Steiner to hang up or dig down preparations in
certain times of year.
This is where I am standing at the moment, still studying the ethers, still
getting more practiced in feeling energies (particularly the quality,
rather than the quantity, of energies) and after what I have been reading
now in the BDNow list about peppering, perhaps do some experiments with
slug peppers (the main problem in my 2ha garden here at Emerson). My
students urge me to do some experiments with peppers almost every week, so
let's give it a try, even without the right constellation perhaps ;)
Kind regards,
Arjen Huese
