The Michaelmas play at Aurora Waldorf School, Alaska:
Michaelmas, our autumn festival, is a festival of courage.
The legend of St. Michael and the dragon inspires courage
within us. From the bounty of nature we gather the fruits
of the harvest and store up the light to guide us through
the darkness of winter. Into darkness and fear, Michael wields
his sword of light, that we might so be inspired to face the
inner and outer darkness with renewed strength of will
and purpose in our lives
