What does anyone know about Biodynamics?

Would you like my recipe for natural insect repellent?

Actually we do perform a ritual each year. We celebrate Wassail on 12th night. This is something I brought with me from the South West of England. There they go into the cider apple orchards, address the trees, place toast dipped in cider among the branches as an offering to the tree spirits and then make a load of noise to scare the devil out of the orchard. We haven't got any cider apple trees. but as I make cider from the persimmons, we wassail the persimmon trees. Then it's back to the house for lots of food and drink with good company.

I don't practice biodynamics, but I do plenty of things that would probably raise eyebrows. For example, I give Reiki to my garden (actually to the whole property, the soil, the plants, the animals, and the people too). So while biodynamics never grabbed me, I respect those who practice it. I gather that much of what they do is about energy, which is what Reiki is about as well.
