My Lineage and Spiritual Path
A family tradition that became a vocation and mission
Roots in a Spiritual Family
I was born into this practice. My grandmother was a servant of mysteries, a woman deeply connected to the spiritual who guided our family and community. My great-grandmother also had notable spiritual gifts, especially in coffee reading, a tradition passed down from generation to generation. From my childhood, I was surrounded by living and practical spirituality, not as abstract theory but as a natural part of daily life.
Conscious Awakening
At 13, what had always been part of my family environment became a conscious personal choice. I began actively studying and practicing, not just absorbing what I saw around me, but seeking deep understanding. This was the moment when my spiritual heritage ceased to be simply my environment and became my chosen path. I began to develop my own gifts under my family's guidance.
Beginning of Public Service
After a period of personal integration in my early adulthood, I began offering my practice to the public in 2008. This was not a start from zero, but the natural continuation of a family tradition that I now shared with a wider community. I began to attend personal consultations and offer spiritual guidance based on my family heritage combined with my own development.
Birth of Spiritual Topics (Temas Espirituales)
On December 10, 2009 I marked a crucial milestone: I launched the website Spiritual Topics (Temas Espirituales). Recognizing the potential of the internet to reach more people, I created this digital platform to share spiritual knowledge. That same year I also started the Spiritual Topics YouTube channel, beginning to create video content that would make spirituality more accessible.
Expansion to In-Person Retreats
In 2016, I expanded my spiritual offering by beginning to organize spiritual retreats. These in-person gatherings allowed for deeper connection with the community that had formed around Spiritual Topics. The retreats combined traditional teaching, spiritual practices, and community, creating transformative spaces for personal and spiritual growth.
The Spiritual Mobile Revolution
In 2021, I launched the Spiritual Topics mobile app, bringing spiritual guidance to everyone's pocket. Recognizing how modern lives required flexible access to spiritual support, I developed this tool offering guided meditations, daily reflections, spiritual growth tracking, and a connected community 24 hours a day.
Heritage, Innovation and Continuity
Today, I honor my family heritage while developing my own unique expression of these traditions. My work connects the ancestral wisdom passed down by my grandmother and great-grandmother with contemporary spiritual needs. I am working on the definitive book on the 21 Divisions and have developed a specialized tarot, thus creating a complete ecosystem of spiritual resources for different levels of practice and understanding.
My Philosophy and Approach
The principles that guide my work and teaching
Accompaniment, Not Imposition
I believe each person has their own unique spiritual path. My role is not to impose beliefs, but to accompany, suggest, and support as you discover what resonates with you.
Growth at Your Own Pace
Spirituality is not a race. I advocate for gradual growth, respecting your timing, doubts, and processes. Every step, no matter how small, is significant.
Authenticity over Dogma
More important than following strict rules is being authentic with yourself. I teach traditions, but always emphasize the importance of personal experience and honest reflection.
Practical Spirituality
I believe spirituality should serve to improve daily life. I focus my teachings on practical applications that generate peace, clarity, and tangible well-being.
Honoring the Lineage
I deeply value and respect traditions passed down through generations. My practice honors my ancestors while evolving to serve contemporary spiritual needs.
Digital Accessibility
I believe in making spiritual wisdom accessible through modern media. From apps to online content, I use technology to bring spiritual support to where people already are.

His Complete Story
A deep look at his path and mission
Rubén Ricart is a spiritual guide dedicated to accompanying people in moments of searching, change, and growth. His path began from birth, growing up in a family with deep spiritual tradition. From childhood, he felt the need to understand life more deeply and find answers that didn't appear in everyday life. That process led him to study, to listen, to practice, and to discover a clear vocation: to help others find light in their own processes.
Having been born into this practice, his spiritual exploration was different from many others. He didn't need to seek external traditions because he already had a rich and complete spiritual heritage in his family. However, during his adolescence and early adulthood, he complemented his family heritage with studies of diverse spiritual traditions to broaden his understanding. But it was always the system of 21 Divisions —the tradition he was born into— that truly gave shape and deep structure to his path. This complex spiritual system, with its roots in African traditions that traveled to America during the diaspora, offers a depth and coherence that perfectly resonates with his search for spirituality that is both traditional and adaptable to modern life.
This fundamental understanding became the core of his approach. Rubén rejects the idea that spirituality should be esoteric or inaccessible. On the contrary, his work focuses on making spiritual practices understandable, applicable, and beneficial in daily life. His methodology combines deep reflection with clear teaching and practical guidance, always adapting to the individual needs of each person seeking his orientation.
What distinguishes Rubén is his conviction that each individual has an inner wisdom that deserves to be heard and developed. He does not present himself as a guru who has all the answers, but as a companion who knows the path and can offer tools, perspectives, and support while others travel their own spiritual paths. This pedagogical humility, combined with deep knowledge of the traditions he teaches, creates a safe space where people can explore, question, and grow without judgment.
In 2009, recognizing the transformative potential of the internet, Rubén founded Spiritual Topics (Temas Espirituales). He began with the website on December 10, 2009 and simultaneously launched the YouTube channel, creating educational content that would make spiritual wisdom accessible to a global audience. The positive response confirmed that many people were seeking exactly what he wanted to offer: authentic spirituality without rigid dogma, available in modern formats.
In 2016, he expanded his work by beginning to organize spiritual retreats, creating in-person spaces for deep connection and transformational growth. These retreats combined traditional wisdom with contemporary practices, allowing intensive spiritual development experiences.
In 2021, he took the next step in digital evolution with the launch of the Spiritual Topics mobile app, bringing constant spiritual support to each person's device, available anytime, anywhere.
One of Rubén's most significant innovations is the development of the Spiritual Topics app. Recognizing that people need spiritual support amid their busy schedules, he created this digital tool that offers guidance, reflection, and accessible practices anytime, anywhere. The app does not replace deep personal work, but it does provide a constant resource for those seeking to maintain a spiritual connection amid their daily responsibilities.
Beyond technology and formats, what truly defines Rubén's work is his commitment to authenticity. In a field where it's easy to fall into clichés or excessively commercialize the sacred, he maintains a careful balance between making his work accessible and preserving the integrity of the traditions he teaches. His writings on the 21 Divisions, for example, are the result of years of study with traditional masters, combined with exceptional pedagogical skill to explain complex concepts clearly.
The specialized tarot he developed for the 21 Divisions is another example of this integrative approach. Instead of simply adopting an existing tarot system, he designed a complete deck that authentically reflects the energies, symbols, and teachings of the Divisions, thus creating a spiritual connection tool that is both traditional and innovative.
This practical orientation is perhaps the most valuable aspect of Rubén's work. In his guidance sessions, he doesn't limit himself to offering abstract spiritual interpretations; he helps people translate spiritual perspectives into concrete actions in their lives: work decisions, relationships, self-care, life purpose. This integration between the spiritual and the practical is what makes his guidance so transformative for those who receive it.
Over the years, Rubén has accompanied thousands of people in crucial moments of their lives: professional transitions, grief processes, purpose-seeking, overcoming existential crises. In each case, his approach combines traditional wisdom with deep listening and personalized response. There are no pre-made formulas in his work, but a genuine commitment to understanding each person's unique situation and offering the most appropriate guidance for that specific moment in their path.
Looking toward the future, Rubén continues to expand his work while maintaining his fundamental commitment to spiritual accessibility. His upcoming book on the 21 Divisions promises to be the most comprehensive guide available in Spanish on this spiritual system, combining rigorous academic research with the practical wisdom acquired through years of teaching and practice.
Rubén firmly believes that every person has a purpose and an inner voice that deserves to be heard. His mission is to serve as clear and kind support for those who are learning to recognize that voice. Through his guidance, many people have found more peace, clarity, and meaning in their lives, not through dogmatic answers, but through developing their own capacity to navigate spiritual and existential challenges.
He also created the Spiritual Topics app, a space designed to receive guidance, reflection, and spiritual support at any time of day; he invites you to download it and begin your own growth path.
From this project, Rubén aspires that every consultation, every reading, every reflection, and every encounter provides inspiration, relief, and an important reminder: you are not alone on your path. Whether you are taking your first steps in spiritual exploration or are an experienced practitioner seeking to deepen, his work offers resources, community, and accompaniment for every stage of the journey.
In a world where many people feel disconnected, overloaded with information but hungry for meaning, Rubén Ricart's work represents a vital bridge between ancestral wisdom and contemporary spiritual needs. His respectful, practical, and deeply human approach continues to inspire and transform lives, one conversation, one meditation, one teaching at a time.
My Creation: The Spiritual Topics App
In 2021, after more than a decade of spiritual service through the website and YouTube, I took the next logical step: I developed the Spiritual Topics app. This tool brings guidance, meditations, and reflections to your mobile device, wherever you are.
The app includes guided meditations, daily reflections, tracking of your spiritual growth, and access to a community of people on similar paths. It's my way of ensuring that spiritual support is available 24/7, adapting to your modern lifestyle.
