I’ve recently had the most magical week and I want to share a little story.
I am taking part in the Gene Key’s online Venus Retreat which started in November 2024. Right now, we are finishing contemplation on the Sphere of the SQ (Spiritual Quotient) and slowly bringing our attention to the Core Wound. I’ve joined the retreat with openness and curiosity and yet, it turned out to be much better than I expected. A truly exquisite experience on so many levels…
Since our opening of the SQ I am experiencing a series of breakthroughs and I feel like I’m high most of the time (without taking any substances, I promise!). I do not remember myself feeling so light and free in this lifetime. Perhaps in childhood, but my memories from those times are blurry, and a handful of moments from the adult life.
That one afternoon last week was out of this world completely.
I am walking in a small town in southern Poland where I am recovering from an injury. It’s quite empty, season haven’t started yet, no tourists, rainy day, cold, windy weather. I was very tired but “decided” to go out. I walked 3 minutes up a little hill, in the direction of an old, empty park, and there she was – a roe deer. I stopped abruptly, as if struck, and stood there, looking at her, uncertain what to do, afraid not to scare her. There was also a bit of fear in the moment – it is a wildlife after all, and – as my ever-fearful and anxious mind reminded me – “I cant’t even run with a broken leg” 
Grateful to my “cheerful” (as always) thoughts, I decided to cross the street and pass the roe deer by.
I started to walk again (super slowly!) with a big smile of wonder on my face, feeling even more high! “Woooow, I saw a sarenka up close! What a joy!”. I live in a city, you know, so any kind of wildlife encounter is a big deal and a cause for celebration. So, I walk (on the other side of the street!) and then, I hear her “footsteps” behind me. Again, I just stopped uncertain how to react, turned and watched her walking by.
No, I actually didn’t just stop this time… I decided to jump on a little stairway that was next to the pavement where I stood, and believe me, my beloved mind was like “the deer, if scared and running, can’t injure me when I’m standing on the stairs” Hahaha! Thank you, my mind, thanks to this brilliant insight I was able to avoid a rage-struck deer’s attack 😀 I mean.. really? Do I react to all potential problems with such ideas?! That is a powerful topic to contemplate… My mind really needs to change a doctor 😀
Anyway… I was there standing (safe on the stairs!), and she crossed the street in front of me, jumped on a little hill and enjoyed the rest of her afternoon lunch. And what did I do? I crossed the street back again 😀 and continued walking. And so, we had a bit of a cross-street dance with Grace!1
In the Gene Key’s Dream Arc’s language, a deer is symbolically connected with the 22nd Gene Key (Grace – Graciousness – Dishonor).
And the best, symbolic, dreamy and magical part is – this little dance happened on the doorstep of a villa called “Bożydar” – ‘a Gift from God’. The staircase I walked into (to avoid the injury from a deer’s rage, credits to my mind again!) leads to a „God’s Gift”. And so it was 
When I got to the old park, I saw the sculptures of men playing various instruments, and in the stillnes of this magical stroll, I felt I can sing again. Without fear and this profound feeling of inadequacy that was haunting me for the last ten long years… I remembered an old song with lyrics written by a wonderful Polish female poet, Agnieszka Osiecka, and I share the song with you below, as a reminder for myself and a beacon of courage for the next time I feel the old patterns emerging. A little chapel I was singing next to, shown at the end of the video, and above this paragraph, has a writing on it: „Bogu” – ‘to/for God’. 
Fitting closure for this little story.
Thank you for reading this. I know that you, my fellow traveler on this turbulent journey called Live, of all people, can appreciate the magic of little moments. And so I hope to keep sharing them, to keep alive the newly reignited spark of my Heart which prefers to live in a magical, rather than strictly material world.
Thank you for being Here. Love and Blessings <3
