Episode 35: Sophia Style, cyclical woman

What cycles are you recognizing and honoring within you? Sophia Style is this week’s #earthconversepodcast guest.   She founded Mujer Ciclica, to ‘share with women what helped me to live in a more accepting and loving way to myself as a woman’.  A student of anthropology, it was healing her own menstrul pain that lead to her transformation. And which “opened up so many doorways” including understanding nature’s cycles were also her own, and how feminine rites of passage are honored in other cultures.  We talk about her journey, connecting with feminine wisdom and making her ‘own tapestry’.   And we explore the sacred, the intimate, taboos and cultural appropriation.   And we bring in the masculine:  “it is a very powerful time now between the feminine and the masculine” and the collective conversations that are needed for our healing. And as a special offering at the end, Sophia leads a ceremony in both Spanish and English, to honour the forthcoming Celtic Imbolc. This is a festival of regeneration which lands between the winter solstice and the spring equinox (around 1 and 2 February).  Bring seeds and a candle!
