By Caren von Gontard

A group of biodynamic practitioners and educators from the Rocky Mountain region and Kentucky have come together to bring Enzo Nastati to the United States for the first time to present seminars on his decades of research and development of biodynamics/homeodynamics. For those unfamiliar with his work, we strongly suggest reading excerpts from his 80+ books, which have been translated from the original Italian into English. Samples are available free of charge from Mark Moodie’s website. (Simply click on the Adobe Acrobat symbol to the left of the title for a preview of the book.) Books can be ordered from the site in a pdf format to download.

Enzo is the author of the Commentary on Dr. Rudolf Steiner’s Agriculture Course (also available from the Josephine Porter Institute), which is an invaluable source for understanding and delving deeper into the first indications given by Steiner for the biodynamic method of agriculture. He has spent decades researching and developing preparations and application techniques to further meet the demands of our modern day. His work has addressed the difficulties presented by electromagnetic fields, radioactive pollution, industrial pollution, water quality deterioration, GMOs, and other harmful effects of our modern technology.

Mark Moodie of the U.K. has spent decades studying with Enzo and translating his works. He offers this observation:

Enzo has protected plants from frosts, developed new plant characteristics, removed heavy metals from subsoils, increased yields in general as well as specific ones such as essential oil fractions, removed rats from a rubbish dump, helped plants to recover after being flattened by 3 hail storms in 90 minutes, put hair back on the rumps of stabled cattle, kept GM pollen off corn crops … all with potentised preparations or with forms … and translated the gospels from the ancient Greek, written about 80 books, given courses all over the world, built new flowforms, designed formidable buildings including those in his home community’s ecovillage in North Italy, developed new potentising techniques, developed water purification appliances and forms to protect people from em radiation.

Too much for one person to do well? – there’s more! If you are interested here is your chance to find out how he ticks … If you do decide to make time to study with Enzo Nastati on his visit to the USA perhaps I can prepare you a little. I suggest that you have some questions ready – some of the really tricky questions that may seem intractable from your reading of the agriculture course. Find a way to formulate those questions as well as you can and bring them along. You will find you are with one of the few people I have met who is likely to have either an answer or who will bounce something very pertinent back to you so you can find a fruitful approach yourself.

After studying many of Enzo’s written works, we have decided to take the leap and bring Enzo to the United States to present his basic seminars. There will be three opportunities to study with Enzo this autumn. He will be giving a basic Homeodynamic Course on October 4-8 in Paonia, Colorado, followed by a course on Water Vitalization in the same location on October 10-13.

From Colorado, Enzo will travel to Foxhollow Farm in Kentucky for a second presentation of the Homeodynamic Course on Oct. 16-20.

The Homeodynamic Course will cost $600, inclusive of all meals. Accommodation will be provided for as many people as possible on a first-come, first-served basis. The Water Vitalization course will cost $500, inclusive.

For information or to register for any of the courses, please contact Caren von Gontard at PO Box 30, Paonia, CO 81428, 970-201-0125, adivg@skybeam.com.

Caren von Gontard who organised for Enzo in N America has written up her notes for anyone who wants them. My heartfelt thanks to Caren.

This transcript was translated by Silvia Giaretta and later transcribed from video recordings. No official editing was done by Enzo or Silvia, hence any mistakes are due to the transcription. For that I apologize.

I respectfully ask that you do not photocopy any of this material without written permission. All proceeds from the sale and distribution of the transcripts and DVDs go to further support future seminars and to fund the research.

To order a copy of this transcript or a set of the DVDs from this seminar, or for information about future seminars with Enzo Nastati in North America you may contact me by email. carenvg@gmail.com

And now the notes for the Kentucky event have been written up and made available. I can't tell you how pleased I am that I didn't have to do all the work for this one.

Enzo Nastati Returns to US in April

Enzo will return to Colorado for a second seminar from April 25 to April 29. The title of the seminar is “Spiritual Agriculture.” A brief outline of the course at bottom:


Last October, two seminars were given in the US by Enzo Nastati from Arca della Vita in Italy. Enzo’s four decades studying agriculture, biodynamic principles and anthroposophy, based on Rudolf Steiner’s work, led him to deep research in many fields. One of his specialties has been the development of homeopathic preparations for farms based on the biodynamic preparations indicated by Steiner.

Since homeopathic preparations are made in strictly controlled laboratory settings with quite specific ingredients, rhythms and methodology, it is not possible for the average person to create them. Just as Steiner established the laboratories for homeopathy at Arlesheim and Stuttgart in his day, it was necessary for Enzo to set up a specific laboratory for the manufacture of his Homeodynamic Preparations resulting from the research farm he started.

These products are readily available and quite inexpensive in Europe but regulations forbid their import into the United States. Because of this difficulty, when Enzo came to America he wanted to provide seminar attendees the knowledge and means to create their own preparations and thereby become autonomous. Given the extreme conditions we face in the world and the challenges they present, Enzo wanted us to learn how to make the BD preparations more efficacious while still preserving the cost and time effectiveness we must have in order for them to be widely accessible.

We spent the days in the October seminar learning to make biodynamics work better. Participants asked for a follow-up to teach us the next step in making situation specific remedies for the various conditions we face as farmers, gardeners or just citizens of the earth.

When I presented this request to Enzo, he agreed to return and teach us another step in the methodology. But, he reminded us that both BD and Homeodynamics are merely crutches in our struggle to raise our consciousness to be able to serve as the preparation ourselves. During the October seminar, Enzo repeatedly asked us to use our higher brains to find the “secret name of things” - to find the secret name of a particular plant or fruit tree, animal or farm organism. He suggested that the step that is most important for the human being is to develop our ability to read the book of nature and thereby find the appropriate action to benefit or even heal wherever needed.

With that in mind, Enzo will return to Colorado for a second seminar from April 25 to April 29. The title of the seminar is “Spiritual Agriculture.” A brief outline of the course follows:


Each living being is a specific bridge between macrocosm and microcosm. But only humans have within them to completely support the function of this bridge. Man, with his conscious, free action, is called to be a tool of support for the evolution of all kingdoms. To do so, man is called to take a path which will bring him back to the original state of purity.

The first step is to "pay" the open debts to the natural kingdoms, which, by no fault of their own, followed man in The Fall. This is the development of the “Incorruptible Body.”

The second step is to develop resonance with the dimension from which, in the current age, the action of the Christ being is released on the Earth. This is thedevelopment of the “Resonance with the Etheric Ring.”

The third step is to develop the higher spiritual arts, the “Seed".

The fourth step is to activate the “Higher and Lower Unmanifested Helixes.”

The fifth step is to know, to be acquainted with and to overcome the limits of space, time, life, and evolutionary design. By doing so, man moves toward becoming the tenth celestial hierarchy.

The sixth step is to activate the heart, the brains, the bodies, and the Merkabah on all higher planes.

The seventh step is to interact with the energetic system which is dominated by the cosmic network.

By operating in this way, man can become a life bearer at the service of the evolutionary design.
