A Threshold Invitation into the Gene Keys

Discover your Genius: The Activation Sequence

Jan 6 2026 to April 28th 2026

We are entering 2026 — a year of deep transition and sacred threshold. In this time between what has been and what is becoming, you are invited into inward listening, contemplation, and remembrance as part of the Gene Keys tradition.

Over four months of devotional study and reflective practice, participants are invited to walk gently and consciously within the unfolding of their soul, meeting shadow and light as sacred teachers on the path of transformation.

Registration closes on Jan 31st 2026.

Participants are invited into four monthly private spiritual check-ins, offering a quiet and intimate space for prayerful reflection and contemplative listening in relation to their Gene Keys study.

Through aromatic oils, gentle Qi Gong movement, and sacred hand gestures (mudra), these gatherings support devotional presence and embodied prayer as part of the contemplative path.

Dreams, images, and inner visions may naturally arise as part of deepened spiritual reflection, and are welcomed as gifts of insight along the journey.

The Map of your Soul’s Journey

  • The Gene Keys Activation Retreat sets the foundation for a profound inner alchemy. Through entering the field of contemplation, participants are invited to awaken their four Prime Gifts. This sacred space, held by Rev. LeeYen, offers patient listening and reverent presence so that deeper spiritual wisdom may be received

  • We stand at a threshold. What has been held within the deeper layers of our being is becoming more vivid, more unavoidable, and more ready for sacred integration. The future is here. The Year of the Closing Door invites us to enter together, so that we may collectively meet the emergence of coherence.

    • You, who feel a quiet calling to step across a threshold and live in deeper alignment with your life’s work and purpose.

    • You, who carry an inner knowing and have been gently guided here by that subtle voice within.

    • You, who are not here to fix yourself, but to listen for the wisdom that already lives inside you.

    • You, who feel called to take part in the Great Change and the unfolding of a new way of being human.

  • Together, we will:

    • create a steady field of shared presence, where the complexity of our human experience may be held with grace and compassion

    • release the striving to change ourselves, and instead rest in the gentle transformation that arises through being witnessed and held in sacred community

    • enter into reverent communion with the spirit of the plant world, receiving its quiet wisdom through prayer, scent, and contemplative presence

    • listen for the deeper stories of the soul through embodied prayer, sacred mudra, and poetic movement

The Four Month Soul Journey

    • Weekly live events and contemplation resources to support you step by step through your Activation Sequence.

  • This online course contains rich content by Gene Keys founder Richard Rudd, including videos, webinars, meditations and writings explaining how to understand each of your Gene Keys, lines and their applications in your Profile.

  • Participants are invited to join a monthly group gathering with Rev. LeeYen — an intimate and reverent space for sharing the creative expressions that arise through contemplation. Poetry, song, dance, prayer, and storytelling are all welcomed as sacred forms of reflection.

  • Participants are invited to four private monthly spiritual check-ins with Rev. LeeYen, offering a quiet and attentive space to reflect on dreams, images, and inner themes that arise through the Sphere of Contemplation.

    During these gatherings, Qi Gong mudras and gentle forms are shared as devotional movement practices to support prayerful presence and embodied listening.

    Aromatic essential oils are offered as contemplative companions for each sphere, inviting reverent awareness of feeling, memory, and the movements of the heart.

“The Sage’s Golden Path is not a journey to finish, but a living stream to enter. As you step into its current, you join a fellowship of souls daring to listen more deeply, to soften more fully and to embody the higher purpose hidden in your DNA.”
