Comparing the links I have provided above will demonstrate that Lucifer, as taught in Waldorf schools, is not at all unlike the traditional Lucifer.  When one gets into deeper Anthroposophical studies, of course, further embellishment of Lucifer's character occurs, along with his companion, Ahriman.  Unfortunately, Lucifer's role (and Ahriman's) in Waldorf, just like in Anthroposophy, is HUGE.  One activity may be labeled "Luciferic" meaning light, spiritual, idealistic while another may be "Ahrimanic" - mechanical or materialistic.  Furthermore - a CHILD may be labeled as one or the other.  Ahriman resides in the television set, or computer - that's why the Waldorf ban on TV.  Lucifer is the light - that's why lighting candels is so significant in Waldorf.  These are HUGE themes in Waldorf and of course the balance between Lucifer and Ahriman is found in the Christ - represented by Michael. The idea is not that the children worship Lucifer, but that Lucifer and Ahriman can be held in their place through the Christ. Of course this is exactly the type of discussion the pro-Waldorf people don't want to come out in the article.  The teachers work in this way, and it is absolutely getting to the children.  Why would we need to hide this?
