Gifts in Love and a Love Story to Myself
I have an affinity for myth-telling. I have walked far. I have found, not the darkness of the void, but the rich black loam where my roots can grow strong.

A mild tea-maker, a rain queen, and a crown with opinions walk into a fairytale about power, tenderness, and belonging. What begins with weak tea and village hierarchy becomes a story of softness, sovereignty, and the kind of crown no one can wear for anyone else.
The next essay in my journey with my Purpose Gene Key, 48.3, in the Venus Sequence … “The Gift of your Purpose in relationships shifts your whole life onto another higher plane. When our relationships feel good, our whole life tends to move effortlessly.”
In this Episode, we talk about how the Venus Stream is calling forth our Yin energy. We have both embarked upon a six month journey through our Venus Sequence, and we are both embracing the delicious feminine energy it is calling us to.
This month in the Sage’s Golden Path Retreat we are exploring our Purpose. This section of the online course about exploring our Sphere of Purpose, begins with these words … A deep sense of meaning rooted in the essence of your being … it honestly feels so good to slip on this comfortable skin of my Gene Key 48, as I step into this Venus Stream.
In this essay, I am diving into my Gift of Resourcefulness itself.
When I first got my chart, over three years ago now, I thought that Resourcefulness sounded rather prosaic, not very exciting or interesting, definitely not magical or esoteric. But I have come to love this Gene Key so much. It is the deepest Gene Key, and it is my favourite.
In this episode, instead of beginning with our usual question … “Where am I now?” … we realised that, as we near the end of this time around the Activation Sequence, and since this Purpose sphere we’ve been diving into for the last month has been HUGE for us both, we really needed to dedicate this entire episode to asking, “Where are we NOW?!!”, and to discussing what it’s like to be women with purpose.
Your Purpose is your root; it is your anchor into the earth and into yourself. It is the Gene Key from which the tree of your whole profile grows. It is not just a root; it is the taproot. A taproot is the primary root of a plant, that grows vertically downward. In the plant world, it is the central element or position in a line of growth or development, and that is exactly what this Purpose sphere is in the living entity that is your Gene Keys profile.
The Gene Keys teachings tell us that we are here to learn from the challenges of our Shadows. I am working with my Purpose Gene Key as part of the The Sage’s Golden Path Retreat. My Purpose Gene Key is 48.3, and the Shadow is Inadequacy. Inadequacy is the fear of not having enough, it is the fear of not being worthy enough, and, according to Richard Rudd, it is rooted in uncertainty about the future.
In this video I play with my imagination in the realms of the timeless before I incarnated in this body, choosing what my soul wanted to learn and what would serve the whole.
When one thinks of Shadow work, “beautiful” is not always the first adjective that springs to mind! “Dark”, “scary”, “difficult”, these would have been my chosen descriptions before I came to this Gene Keys work; “something to be fixed” would also have been how I thought of my Shadows.
But in the Sage, Richard says something that entirely changed the way I thought about this Purpose Shadow … Your higher Purpose is in your beautiful ordinariness.
What Deeply Fulfils You … It’s not a question, it’s a statement. It’s an invitation to open yourself up to this Purpose Gene Key. All of the Gene Keys in your chart play important roles in your life. If you’ve read any of my other essays or articles, you may have already realised that Gene Key 48 is my favourite Gene Key. It’s the deepest, it’s the well of Wisdom. It holds everything!! What’s not to love about that?!!
I am so glad that the way the Sage’s Golden Path Retreat has been structured means that now we’re in the Purpose sphere, we actually get to be here for two whole months! This Purpose sphere is huge! And the Gene Key I have here (48.3) is deeeeeeep!! It is, after all, the Void, the well, the black hole at my centre!
So, what is “Purpose” in the Gene Keys lexicon?
In this episode we dive headlong into our Purpose Sphere Sage Words, Lines and Sutras! Your Purpose is not about doing anything, but simply about being who you are. Come, join us on this deep dive into Gene Keys 37 and 48!
We are moving into our Purpose sphere as part of the Sage’s Golden Path Retreat, and I am already in love with my Sage word and Line for Gene Key 48.3, which I have in this pivotal place in my chart.
We often ask ourselves, “What is my purpose?”. What I am asking myself is, “How does this new Sage word and Line fit with how I see my Purpose in the world”?
I’d like to tell you the story of my journey through the Venus Sequence. This has been life changing for me. Going through my Venus Sequence for a second time has been incredible; I have gone deeper than I ever have before; I have journeyed into the deep wounding of my childhood; I have held my relationships close and found such treasures in them.
