“The equinoxes, and the solstices lend themselves to pausing and taking stock of where we are and where we are going and how we’re doing, for reflecting and for visioning, but also for really paying attention to what nature is revealing to us and the lessons in that.” Ruby May

About this interview:

How can we initiate a culture rooted in the cycles of nature and life?

 

“The equinoxes, and the solstices lend themselves to pausing and taking stock of where we are and where we are going and how we’re doing, for reflecting and for visioning, but also for really paying attention to what nature is revealing to us and the lessons in that.” Ruby May

In this episode Amisha talks to Ruby May, an educator, activist, coach and community leader cultivating a world in which cyclical awareness is integrated into the way we relate and create. The themes of empowerment and who we are beyond our conditioning are threads that weave between all her offerings.

In this thoughtful conversation, Amisha and Ruby consider lives lived guided by cycles that exist within and outside of our bodies; our hormonal cycles and the seasonal cycles of nature. We learn how solstices and equinoxes can be pivot points of reflection offering the opportunity to deepen our listening, stillness and the visioning of our future attuned with nature’s revelations. Sharing their personal experiences, they speak of the wisdom and insights we might garner when listening and entrusting life to these powerful rhythms.

Ruby reveals her ways of living guided by her womb cycles and how it brings forth kinship with our bodies and connection with our creativity. We learn that this way of life offers fundamental pathways to break away from action-mode systems re-connecting us with our sense of play and different rest practices that activate our creativity and integrate our human experiences, especially our vital descent into our personal ‘underworlds’ of deeper layers of pain, grief and fear.

Living attuned with cycles of life offers opportunities to shift our dominant culture re-channeling our values and resources into a supportive community that understands the signals and rhythms of our bodies as deep intelligence that guides life and aligns us with nature; a culture that invites the power of vulnerability and intuition so that new archetypes may emerge amongst us with intention and presence

“We are here creating a new culture that sees the power in vulnerability, that sees the intelligence and emotions that sees symptoms of the body as being a really intelligent way that the body is speaking to us and inviting our awareness.” ~Ruby May
