Hey First name / friend,
“The doors to the world of the wild Self are few but precious. If you have a deep scar, that is a door, if you have an old, old story, that is a door. If you love the sky and the water so much you almost cannot bear it, that is a door. If you yearn for a deeper life, a full life, a sane life, that is a door.”
— Women Who Run With The Wolves
Shadow work is a great focus during a Waning + Dark Moon. One of the reasons I love Richard Rudd and include pathways associated with the Gene Key journeys inside The Collective is because of the way he speaks about the Gates/Keys (which originate from the IChing). They are the archetypes of existence and the way he breaks it down so clearly as a pathway from Shadow to Gift is the perfect illustration of the high and low vibration that exists in all things, in all energy, which is why while I break down the Gates into my own Keys, Affirmations, Lines + Integration steps I still ALWAYS recommend everyone get his book. It's descriptive, it's poetic, it's an initiation and reading about each of your Gates especially in your inner/personal planetary placements can be life changing + affirming.
There are six gates tied to deeper layers of healing in our bodygraph which are broken down into their own six modules inside the Meeting Ground inside The Collective. They are:
- your Unconscious Earth in relationship, well, to your relationships, and the dharma woven through which we can heal through our deeper 1:1's
- your Unconscious Moon + your magnetism.
- your Conscious Venus and your IQ
- your Conscious Mars and your EQ
- your Unconscious Venus and your limitlessness.
- your Unconscious Mars and your core wound.
You can learn much just by contemplating these archetypes in relationship to the themes. Members can take a deep dive through the whole journey in the Inner Path. Richard often speaks about this pathway as a precursor to stepping into greater prosperity. It is the inner work of deconditioning + alignment AND we can spend our entire lives cultivating deeper understandings to our definition and still find something new, something more layered, something more profound at every turn as we spiral back around, how beautiful.
