Summary
The book begins by introducing the reader to a fantastic possibility - that humanity may be on the verge of a major shift in consciousness rooted in a new understanding of how our DNA operates - namely that it is programmed directly by the way we think and feel。 This is a highly ambitious and sophisticated system for shaping one's destiny。 Based around 64 archetypes， it resembles the I Ching in its vast scope and profound importance， and in the resonant character of its symbolism。 The author shows how there are two ways to approach the Gene Keys - the analogue （holistic） way and the digital （detailed） way。 It is the combining of both analogue and digital that results in contemplation - the primary pathway into the Gene Keys。 Since our beliefs shape our genes， when we change our beliefs， we change the chemistry of our body。 The Gene Keys are an inner language whose central purpose is to transform our core beliefs about ourselves， thus raising our lives onto a new level of awareness。 The book works alongside state-of-the-art online profiling software。
This software will provide instantaneous free profiles known as 'Hologenetic Profiles'， which uses astrological data （time， date and place of birth） to generate a unique sequence of Gene Keys that relate to many aspects of your life， including the underlying genetic patterns governing your relationships， your finances， your health and your life purpose。 As the reader contemplates the 64 Gene Keys over time and applies their insights in his or her own life， so one's belief system will begin to change and our DNA will actually start to transform the way we think and feel。

Transformative book。 I came across the book via the local community in Bulgaria who work with Richard Rudd to teach people how to work with the Gene Keys。 This is a book to keep nearby all the time as every week you can contemplate the Gene Key for the right time and work with yourself。 After this book I purchased everything else that was available。 Highly recommended and life changing。

How much of our lives are nature v nurture？ Are events predetermined， and what of destiny？Before reading this book， the first step is to visit: https://genekeys。com/free-profile/ to complete a reading based on your birth details。 Be sure to have your exact time of birth handy。 Without this foundation， you will become hopelessly lost and tire of the content almost immediately because it will not have context。 Richard Rudd， who was named on the Watkins list of the 100 Most Spiritually Influential How much of our lives are nature v nurture？ Are events predetermined， and what of destiny？Before reading this book， the first step is to visit: https://genekeys。com/free-profile/ to complete a reading based on your birth details。 Be sure to have your exact time of birth handy。 Without this foundation， you will become hopelessly lost and tire of the content almost immediately because it will not have context。 Richard Rudd， who was named on the Watkins list of the 100 Most Spiritually Influential Living People in 2019， explains that your Gene Keys profile “is the beginning of an epic journey into the depths of your soul。” Each Gene Key is a “portal of transformation that can be activated through the power of contemplation。”At 500+ pages， this is not a book one would read end-to-end， and much of it will not be relevant because only a few of the 64 Gene Keys will apply based on your specific profile。 Rudd has developed a comprehensive system that includes six other manuscripts， or manuals， that provides the reader with a proprietary evolutionary map。 Rudd offers a “great debt to Ra Uru Hu， the founder of the Human Design System” and the Chinese I Ching， which contains “codes within it。” These codes， called Gene Keys， are apparently based on your DNA and astrological profile from which the author generates a series of modules to “imbibe， contemplate， and apply in your daily life” as living wisdom。 The premise of the book is that “every single human being has something beautiful hidden inside them，” and the purpose of the Gene Keys is to “bring that beauty forth， to unveil one’s incandescence，” which Rudd suggests is “the eternal spark of genius that sets you apart from everybody else。”I am not sure that one can satisfactorily conflate DNA， astrology， and the I Ching's ancient wisdom - which may be no more than a parlor game for bored intellectuals seeking otherworldly guidance。 That the author mixes science， pseudo-science， and magick as the basis for a cogent， coherent， credible framework to guide one towards a bright life of confident self-expression is moot。 So， from the get-go， Rudd’s task is a lofty one。 There are various astrological systems， for example， sidereal and tropical， which provide different ‘co-ordinates’ for the underlying profile， and thus different perspectives are potentially available。 In the absence of a DNA sample， it is unclear how Rudd attributes specific amino acids and the human endocrine system to his process， yet this is what he does。DNA and the extent to which we are directed or influenced by nature or nurture are pithy， existential subjects。 Are our lives predetermined by genes， and is it that some are destined to be a success due to their genetic inheritance？ As determined by his genes， if a king were born to a pauper， what would happen？The field of epigenetics and quantum mechanics suggests that one may be capable of consciously influencing their genetic expression with the application of knowledge， desire， intention， and persistence， so perhaps this is the value of the Gene Keys because what it delivers， in spades， are knowledge and insight of the human condition。 The Gene Keys is best digested as a labor of love that includes its partner books， podcasts， and videos （some on YouTube）。 I also drew on a range of independent interpretations from students of the system available on Google。 As a lifelong learner and spiritual seeker， I found the Gene Keys to be a wonderful adjunct to my personal path of discovery。 It worked for me when I took the time to contemplate Rudd’s potpourri of ideas and concepts。 For many readers， time is of the essence， yet if you seek a divergent perspective on nebulous concepts like the "soul，" destiny， and how to live your best life， then the Gene Keys is for you。 。。。more

I thought I'd like this book as I'm curious about human design and astrology。 As noted in the beginning of using this as potential oracle cards， I'm open to seeing how it plays out。 However， upon the first read， this doesn't resonate with me。 The information throughout the gene keys had moments of resonation and reflection that I'm sure after practice and use may open up channels within （unlock codes）。 However， I felt that other than the information provided with the 64 gene keys， which can be r I thought I'd like this book as I'm curious about human design and astrology。 As noted in the beginning of using this as potential oracle cards， I'm open to seeing how it plays out。 However， upon the first read， this doesn't resonate with me。 The information throughout the gene keys had moments of resonation and reflection that I'm sure after practice and use may open up channels within （unlock codes）。 However， I felt that other than the information provided with the 64 gene keys， which can be relevant to all people at any time， using it as an understanding of our lives and path based on our birth chart though was confusing and just a way for the author to sell additional programs on his website。 。。。more

Mixed feelings。 I found some of the keys to be uninteresting and long-winded。 Perhaps these are not the ones that are important to me on this journey。 I also bristled with the text at some points -- there is a lot of borrowing and interpreting of Eastern traditions by a white European man。 He may have been gifted some of these traditions by teachers， but some parts still felt 'off' to me in this context。 But， I did also feel a significant impact from some of the chapters （keys）， and the sequence Mixed feelings。 I found some of the keys to be uninteresting and long-winded。 Perhaps these are not the ones that are important to me on this journey。 I also bristled with the text at some points -- there is a lot of borrowing and interpreting of Eastern traditions by a white European man。 He may have been gifted some of these traditions by teachers， but some parts still felt 'off' to me in this context。 But， I did also feel a significant impact from some of the chapters （keys）， and the sequences from my own chart are almost painfully precise hits on my main emotional patterns and life issues （at least at this point -- mid-life）。 I don't necessarily encourage reading all the way through （and to be fair， neither did the author）！ It seemed necessary for me， but then my mind likes to take over and try to collect information。 :） 。。。more

Okay so I actually ate this one up。 Genuinely fascinating。 Like with all spiritual texts （especially New age ones）， I think it is to be taken with a grain of salt。 But the journey it presents you with is quite expansive & fascinating & while some of the ways the concept is treated in the spiritual community seem a bit creepy （aka cult-ish） to me， the book itself is quite a treat。 Inspire by the I-Ching & Human design， it offers the opportunity for a multi layered exploration of fundamental arche Okay so I actually ate this one up。 Genuinely fascinating。 Like with all spiritual texts （especially New age ones）， I think it is to be taken with a grain of salt。 But the journey it presents you with is quite expansive & fascinating & while some of the ways the concept is treated in the spiritual community seem a bit creepy （aka cult-ish） to me， the book itself is quite a treat。 Inspire by the I-Ching & Human design， it offers the opportunity for a multi layered exploration of fundamental archetypes ， with speculative connections to physiology， psychology & important spiritual/religious texts & it pretty much offers the mind & intuition a semi-structure playground with just enough space for your own interpretations & musings。I would totally recommend giving this one a read & also exploring your hologenetic profile。 Just for fun。 No strings attached。 It might give you the opportunity to reflect on your own making in your own terms。 。。。more

Light is light。 It is an impersonal phenomenon。。。But enlightenment - expressed in a human body， through a human personality- is an entirely different thing。 Passing through the unique Genetic "prism" of the body-mind， when light illuminates the vessel of the human， it takes on different ways of outward expression， appearance， and/or genius。This， among other things， is what Richard Rudd succeeds in illustrating and presenting in this masterpiece of spiritual literature。Far before i had the honor Light is light。 It is an impersonal phenomenon。。。But enlightenment - expressed in a human body， through a human personality- is an entirely different thing。 Passing through the unique Genetic "prism" of the body-mind， when light illuminates the vessel of the human， it takes on different ways of outward expression， appearance， and/or genius。This， among other things， is what Richard Rudd succeeds in illustrating and presenting in this masterpiece of spiritual literature。Far before i had the honor of knowing Richard a bit more as a student， experiencing his courses and materials available in the Gene Keys site-I intuitively recognized him as one of the greatest writers and thinkers in the field of spirituality and human potential at this time。I read his book， was amazed but also startled by the depth and implications of what he writes。。。 and the "penetrating" power of his words， which i could feel literally in my every cell。Then i put down the book for a year or so， only to pick it up again， this time more mature and ready to put his teaching into practice。。。 which i did with the aid of his courses for the next few following years。This is how i came to know R。R。 a bit more closely as a teacher， and be truly impacted by what he calls "the transmission"。It was a true adventure， and also a challenge and blessing- To work with these materials for the period of time that i did （Several years）。These days i find myself moving on to other inward explorations- but i still consider the Gene Keys circle to be a relatively healthy and beneficial surroundings for one who is truly interested in personal growth and development。The book itself is thrilling- R。R。 is a great writer- i think it might be his strongest suit， and he has many。Don't pick this book up if you are not looking for a profound and deep change within yourself and your life experience。 The book carries transformational energies， that may even bring one some difficulty- if one is not ready to absorb them and go through deep inner change。Then again- who knows what one is ready for？。。。。 Life tends to show us， i have learned。。。 in spite of "ourselves"。Love。 。。。more

Richard Rudd is truly a scholar， poet and mystic of the highest caliber！ His work on Gene Keys is a remarkable extension of Human Design and is a book worthy of lifetime study。 The book is written at a very advanced intellectual level and requires knowledge of behavioral sciences and metaphysics for full appreciation of the contents。 As a Human Design and Gene Keys consultant I find this book invaluable。
