SHE WILL NOT BE PUSHED OFF COURSE

Gloria Steinem, passing just a day after Wendell Berry, and 53 years to the day after JRR Tolkien. Two voices of great movements leaving so close together.

I will say just a few words and allow you to chew over it in your own way in your own time. I know many in our community were shaped by her and that there are many who grieve her passing deeply.

The revolutionary spirit is strong in her of course, with her 49th Gene Key IQ Sphere guiding her values and voice for the women of the world. The 37 being a voice for equality. And then the 13th Gene Key as both her SQ (13.6), Stability Sphere (13.1) and North Node (13.6), demonstrated through her guidance to listen deeply to others as she traveled the roads of the world.

"Listening is the most revolutionary act you can perform because it implies that the other person has something of value to say."

- Gloria Steinem

Her great evolutionary challenge to make a stand for the principles she believed in aminst the judgement she faced, and as we can see she affected the world deeply by holding steady to this. Whether you resonate with her or not, the profile does speak to so much of what she experienced and exuded in life.

Her 52nd Gene Key Life's Work in a line 4 in the Sage, which I have in my profile so can share here:

Name: Binah

Subtitle: Grounded and secure in the ocean of stability

Sutra Name

The Ocean of Stability

Sutra

Three words for mountain:
Implacable: she will not be pushed off course.
Impeccable: even her flaws are part of her strength.
Imponderable: her depth can never be measured.

Jamie Rose is the co-host with me for the upcoming Return of the Triple Merlin event with Richard Rudd in BC in October. Tonight we chat with Kevin Preston, host of the New Human events, this year titled Re-Union, about Miracle Week.

Follow me on Instagram to catch the live.

The week that Richard is coming here has been dubbed by Kevin Preston as Miracle Week. He is hosting Richard at Re-Union in Enderby the weekend before.

Then in the week in between you can catch Mei-Lan in Vancouver (my wife is going) or mythologist Martin Shaw in the Cowichan Valley on October 7th. Then you can make it to Victoria for our live event!

And if you can't make it in person our event will be an immersive virtual experience.

Join us on Instagram tonight!

Today is the 53rd anniversary of the passing of the great JRR Tolkien, one of the infamous Inklings and creator of Hobbits. I haven't usually been drawn to his passing but several synchronicities with friends have nudged me to look closer.

One of those synchronicities lies in his Creativity Sphere of 50.5. That exact Gene Key and line number has surfaced many times for me this week in charts I have viewed. So it holds something for me. And his creativity is the very thing he is remembered for.

Spider is the fear key of the 50th Gene Key and Shelob was most definitely a spider that instilled fear in the young me. It is the weaver of worlds, just like Tolkien himself became with Middle Earth.

For me perhaps the writing that most evokes the themes of this key are the first pages of the Silmarillion when the world of his came into existence.

"In the beginning Eru, the One, who in the Elvish tongue is named Ilúvatar, made the Ainur of his thought; and they made a great Music before him. In this Music the World was begun; for llúvatar made visible the song of the Ainur, and thev beheld it as a light in the darkness. And many among them became enamoured of its beauty, and of its history which they saw beginning and unfolding as in a vision. There- fore Ilúvatar gave to their vision Being, and set it amid the Void. and the Secret Fire was sent to burn at the heart of the World: and it was called Eä.'

The harmony of spheres, of worlds coming together.

It then proceeds to engage us in the evolutionary journey of this world born of music, including the birth of corruption and the rise of evil.
I needn't say anything more as I am sure you know at least some of the story.

Many more keys capture my attention but this week it is this key and line number. I will continue to journey with it.

I have so much that I want to share about this genius and his coconspirators in the Inklings - CS Lewis, Charles Williams & Owen Barfield being the most well known.

In the meantime I celebrate a man who has inspired millions during and since his passing.

We are just under 6 weeks away from this event and the energy has been building.

If you have not yet bought your in-person ticket and would like to be as close to the front as possible I would suggest buying your ticket soon. You choose your seating before the day, not on it.

We have been working closely with Richard so that both the in-person and virtual experiences are as intimate and inspiring as possible. We can safely say you haven't see this kind of event in the Gene Keys before :)
