Clay Ruby has been formally trained in all three certification tracks of the Building Biology Institute (BBEC, BBNC, and EMRS), as well as co-pioneering its latest specialization, BBID, and was mentored directly by the legendary electrical engineer and seminal BBI instructor Spark Burmaster. He has also completed extensive BioGeometry training, working through the Foundation and Advanced courses with Doreya and Laila Karim, and most recently undertaking an immersive five-day, in-person workshop with Dr. Sayed Karim in preparation for certification as a BioGeometry Environmental Home Solutions associate practitioner (BGEHS).
He has spent over 30 years engaged in the study of Astrology, including several years of coursework with renowned teachers Renn Butler and Austin Coppock. He also serves as Secretary of the executive council of his regional branch of the Anthroposophical Society America. Clay is the curator and president of the board of directors for Arkadia, a burgeoning
arts and education center housed in a 130-year-old former church which now serves as both a proving ground for the applied benefits of Building Biology and BioGeometry and a living laboratory for related research. He is also the founder and principal practitioner of Arkadia Vitalis, a research, education, and consulting initiative exploring the living edge between heterodox science and spiritual insight, illuminating the subtle architectures underlying our health, environments, and inner lives. This work spans the energetic geometries of BioGeometry, the harmonizing principles of Building Biology, the resonant timing of Astrology, the formative fields of Aether Physics, and the restorative patterns found in Medical Climatology, Electroculture, and Spiritual Science.
