Explore the Evolutionary Stages of Earth and Human Consciousness
A 9 week immersive journey through the origins and mysteries of the Earth and humanity's stages of creation - combining talks, art experiences and deep insights.
Most people see humanity’s story as starting with early physical humans on Earth, but Rudolf Steiner revealed we have far deeper roots. Our journey began in vast, ancient stages—Old Saturn, Old Sun, and Old Moon—when we existed, starting with non-physical forms, slowly preparing for life on Earth. Without this bigger picture, we miss the true depth and purpose of human existence.
In Rudolf Steiner’s picture of creation, humanity evolves through vast planetary conditions (like Old Saturn, Old Sun, and Old Moon) that shape our being, then through epochs within the Earth stage that mark major transformations, and finally through cultural ages—shorter periods of spiritual and cultural development within each epoch.

This course draws from Iris Paxino’s Speaking with Angels and Adam Bittleston’s Our Spiritual Companions to explore:
How do angels, look, feel and think?
How do they communicate with one another and with us?
Which of them help and why do some oppose?
These are just some of the questions we will look to answer on our interactive course.
The gradual development of human consciousness through spiritual and material stages
The role of angelic beings in shaping human destiny
The significance of Lemuria and Atlantis in Earth's history
The purpose of our current era and the future of humanity
Cleone Armon is a long-time student (over 30 years) of Rudolf Steiner’s spiritual science, she holds a diploma in Artistic Therapy and has been running courses for the last six years.
“I'm a regular at Cleone's courses. Always informative, on track, while being socially interactive, even for me as a zoom participant.”
“My thanks to Cleone's joy in bringing her anthroposophical research alive. Then grounding it in well thought out artistic colour exercises. These we all manage together, supporting and enjoying each others achievements. The Angel course has woken me up to their real presence in my life.”
“Cleone has brought to us, "The Great World of Angels" course with an Anthroposophical perspective; her love of and pure interest in this world has been inspirational and enlightening. Learning of the presence of the Hierarchies and Angelic Beings has been an incredibly special experience and these have come to life within the group through wonderful sharing and stimulating discussion . Those of us who live at distance from Hastings have been able to join the course by Zoom; this has worked very effectively and I have always felt a sense of immediacy and connection to the group dynamic.”
“I find the lectures and art therapy with Cleone enriching for the soul. I learn, then let it settle into my consciousness with the meditative painting experience. Whether in person or zoom, it is an enriching and grounding experience.”
“The course (Esoteric Old Testament) is a portal into the ancient worlds of the apostles and prophets of the Old Testament where one can meet these great beings in the geopolitical context of the times through an anthroposophical perspective. Cleone imparts her love of and great breadth of knowledge in these living stories in which there are so many parallels with our present world.”
“I attended The Great World of Angels recently and I cannot really express how amazing and enlightening this course was for me. It has helped me process a lot of personal conflict Including the loss of my daughter. It has also enabled me to process and react to many different situations in a positive and loving manner.”
