Walking Between Worlds: Finding Magic in the Everyday

What happens when the spiritual path you've always known begins to feel like a beautifully decorated cage? For many seekers, the journey toward authentic spiritual connection doesn't arrive as a lightning bolt, but as a persistent whisper calling them back to the earth.

In this soul-stirring conversation, Ruby opens up about her transition from religious ministry to earth-based spirituality, sharing a profound moment at Stonehenge when she realized "the sacred isn't somewhere else, it's right here in the earth, in the breath, in the light." Together, Eric and Ruby explore how ancient symbols and rituals take on new meaning when we see them not as mere decorations but as gateways to universal connection. They discuss the rebellious act of trusting your intuition and finding holiness in everyday existence rather than waiting for external validation.

Moving beyond Hollywood stereotypes of bubbling cauldrons and pointy hats, we dive into practical green witchcraft—starting with literal grounding, creating sacred spaces, and building ethical relationships with the natural world. Ruby shares a touching story about her grandmother teaching her proper plant harvesting, emphasizing that the heart of magical practice lies in intention, reciprocity, and respect. The conversation explores various witch "types" (green, sea, kitchen, hedge) while emphasizing that your path is yours alone to define and can evolve as you grow.

Whether you're questioning religious orthodoxy, curious about earth-based practices, or simply seeking a more authentic spiritual connection, this episode offers gentle guidance without judgment. The magic isn't in perfection but in presence—in listening to the land, to your own soul, and finding community while honoring diversity. Step outside, feel the earth beneath your feet, and remember: the journey itself is the path.
