In episode 15: A Love of Green Things, Miriam speaks with Bernadette Ashcroft, folk herbalist, folk singer, foraging teacher, nature resonance guide and a walker on the path of the Bean Feasa (Irish for a woman of knowledge or wise-woman). In this episode Miriam and Bernadette speak about their love of the plants and the English countryside and express their shared reticence to document every aspect of their lives on social media. Bernadette shares the process behind creating her plant-based healing wares in the Wild Folk Apothecary. She offers suggestions for those wanting to know where to begin when it comes to connecting with the living world and subtle realms. This is a nourishing, uplifting conversation between two women in love with all things green. It’s a call to remember the inherent magick of ourselves as human beings in connection with the more-than human world. Bernadette is generously offering listeners 25% off her products at the Wild Folk Apothecary, using the code: moonbody.

In Episode 13 Miriam speaks about women, wolves and the Fawn Response. Many women fall into fawning habits in situations where it's not necessary or supportive to truth. This is especially unhelpful for women leaders and business owners. Miriam speaks about the importance of cultivating a healthy Fight Response and how women can draw inspiration from our ancient ally: the wolf. Miriam's 3-Month Group Mentoring Container, Sister Wolf, is currently enrolling. If you're a woman with a soul-led business desiring to refine your expression, access deeper creativity and deepen your capacity to hold more, this may be for you. Sister Wolf begins on February 6th.

In this special New Year's Eve episode Miriam speaks on the beauty of marinading in deep winter darkness. She reads from Inanna's Descent, discussing descent as an archetypal feminine initiation. She speaks about the Eleusinian Mysteries, the story of Persephone and Demeter and the psychoactive potion of immortality: Kykion. Miriam speaks about experiences with sacred earth medicines and about how the current times are their own form of psychoactive brew. This episode was made with those staying home for a cosy New Year's in mind. Happy New Year! Thank you for being part of the Moon Body community.

Last year I discovered – like many before me – that the image we’ve inherited of Aphrodite has been defanged beyond recognition. That in Aphrodite’s deepest core, the dark feminine is pulsating, alive, erotic, charged and coiled like a black serpent.
I realised that we mortal women are much like Goddess Aphrodite… we, too, have been taught to subdue and civilise our wild erotic impulses in order to ‘pass’ in a culture where the dark femme is unwelcome, exiled and considered dangerous.
TEMPLE OF APHRODITE was born from this initiation with the Goddess. My new 5-week online container for women was built on three pillars of: Sacred Sexual Embodiment, Goddess Wisdom
and Light + Dark Feminine Erotics.In this episode of The Oracle Podcast, I take you back to the goddess's dark feminine origins and reveal the ways in which Aphrodite had her wild feminine core removed to be more palatable under patriarchy.

The dark feminine holds powerful medicine for women.
But her gifts have been lost in a culture which fears the dark as something sinful and evil.
In the very first episode of The Oracle podcast, Miriam Ropschitz explains who and what the dark feminine is, offers historical evidence for the suppression of the dark and paints a new, more-truthful vision of the dark feminine's medicine for women and the planet.
