The Golden Thread Council presents

A Six Week Inner Lent-Easter Path

A shared spiritual practice for inner renewal between Earth and Cosmos
 

The Lent–Easter season is a time many traditions recognize as a period of inwardness, purification, and renewal. Within Sophia Circle, we approach this season as an opportunity for conscious inner work—cultivating listening, warmth, artistic perception, and presence to the living world.

"The Festivals of the year are stations on the path of the Human Soul." - Rudolf Steiner

The Golden Thread

The Golden Thread is a spiritual circle and community practice. It is the quiet continuity of consciousness that weaves through our lives in body, soul, and spirit, linking earthly experience with cosmic meaning.

​

During these six weeks, participants are invited into simple daily and weekly gestures that nurture reflection, reverence, and connection.

The Lent-Easter Practice

What the Practice Includes 

​​This Lent–Easter path is held within a gentle threefold framework that attends to the human being as body, soul, and spirit. Each week and day offers simple invitations that can be taken up in freedom.

​

  • Earth — Body

  • Grounding in the rhythms of earthly life

  • Weekly themes that encourage presence in nature and daily life

  • Mindful walking, seasonal observation, and care for one’s surroundings

  • Artistic activities rooted in natural materials and direct perception

​

  • Soul — Inner Life

  • Cultivating reflection, warmth, and awareness

  • Short daily questions or gestures for inner reflection

  • Prompts for reflective and sky journaling

  • Listening practices and moments of intentional quiet

​

  • Spirit — Cosmic Orientation

  • Opening to meaning and wider rhythms

  • Astrological awareness and cosmic framing

  • Brief sky observation and candle moments of intention

  • Contemplation of renewal, transformation, and purpose

  • Across the season, these practices are carried within a gentle community rhythm, culminating in a closing Easter festival or gesture, shaped personally or shared with others.

This practice is offered in freedom. You may participate quietly on your own or alongside others in the Sophia Circle community.

The full participant guide is available as a downloadable PDF.
