WELL AWARE 42: Succurro Founder Owyn Ruck on Being A Sensitive Person, Self-Inquiry, Astrology, and Integrity

Summary: Articulate, headstrong, deft, hard working, self-aware, sensitive, nurturing, and collectively-oriented are all words that describe <a href="https://www.instagram.com/owynmarisol/?hl=en">Owyn Ruck</a>, the founder of <a href="https://www.succurro.co/">Succurro</a>. Succurro is a space that helps individuals as well as the collective regenerate humanity and reclaim a right to their own health. It’s located in East Meredith, New York — upstate, but away from all of the recent Brooklyn-transplant activity, claiming a space of its own.<br> <br> Late last year I took an astrology class with Owyn through Succurro, and it changed my life. It was October, and I was in the beginnings of my healing crisis without even fully understanding what was going on. She opened up my eyes to a new way of thinking about astrology. Instead of rooting it in personality traits, she looks at a natal chart and sees potential and a clear healing journey, taking energetic cues rather than literal ones.  <br> I’ve known about Succurro for a year or so, and I truly cannot remember how I came across it, but I’m glad I did. I was sucked into the mystery — the presentation on the website was so beautiful, their offerings were esoteric, and I wasn’t sure what to make of it. Which lead me to reach out to Owyn, and I’m so glad I did! In our conversation we discuss: <br> <br> What exactly Succurro is, who it serves, and why she created it<br> Owyn’s sensitive nature and how it manifests<br> How she navigated a relationship to Spirit in an atheist household growing up<br> Her best advice to someone looking at Succurro and wanting to create something similar <br> How to listen to your body, and Owyn’s story of a life-long struggle with hers<br> Her inquiry technique for clarity<br> How she came around to calling herself an artist <br> Whether she believes in ghosts (!)<br> The interplay of climate change and self-awareness<br> <br> <br> This episode will especially serve sensitive or highly sensitive people, anybody looking to open up their own healing center, and people interested in astrology and/or self-inquiry.
