Blessing of Birth

by Richard Rudd

Blessing of Birth

Great Beings of Infinite softness and truth
We salute you.
We entreat you to witness this birth.
May your manifold blessings shine forth
Upon the brow of this, our new beloved.

May the fruits and mellow seasons of the earth
Rain down upon this little life
Inspiring a lifelong journey of reverence and wonder.

Please protect and nourish this,
Your precious seed
As it falls and rises and learns and grows
In this, our dawning world.

May the great steadfast oak of your love
Offer peaceful, daily umbrage to this soul
As she weaves her dream
Into the waking hearts
Of the people of this world.

May the spirits of tree and plant and flower and star
Of wind and waves and distant mountain,
And all the creatures and elements of this earth
Inspire you little one…
May they be your constant companions
And may you serve them well,
As they shall serve you.

And as your life sprouts
And your soul’s true purpose
Echoes round the valleys of your life,
May your roots plunge deep
May your path run smooth,
May your friends be many
May you find your sacred partner
May you face all storms
With the heart of the rose
And the valour of the lion.
And may the winds of wisdom
Loosen the leaves of your dreams
As you offer your gifts to the world.

And May the tender cradle of your family
fill you with vigour and the gentle faith
That all is well in this life.
May your every cell remember this truth
As you step forth from this day onwards.

May you carry the blessings of the Ancient Ones
May your life be blessed
By the sacred Mystery of the Three.

(anoint the head with 3 drops of pure water)

We offer these gifts as a sacred talisman
May they too be blessed.

(blessing the gifts)

We weave these circles around your head
And close our eyes to bow
In sacred Veneration.

(Silence)

May your life be blessed.
May you help bring an end to all suffering.
May you realise in this very life
The Eternal Truth of your origin.

We give great thanks for your birth.
We give great thanks to our ancestors
And ask that they watch over you
As you shine your light in this world.

May your life be blessed
May your family be blessed
May all families be blessed
May all beings be blessed.

Amen.

Gene Key 64 – 2026

A Special Gift for Richard

Many years ago, our dear Gene Keys Ambassador Ibi created a beautiful birthday blessing for Richard – a heartfelt offering that has lived on through the years in our SoundCloud collection. This year, For Richard’s birthday, Team64 wanted to bring this special gift back into the light – celebrating Richard, the wisdom and inspiration he continues to share with us.

With love and gratitude to them both, we invite you to enjoy the blessing once again. You can listen to Richard’s original version, or hear the same words spoken in a female voice below.

 

If you’d like to share a birthday wish, a few words of appreciation or a message for Richard. He would love to hear from you. Leave your message in the comments below and join us in celebrating a special day.

  1. The 64th Gene Key carries the whole spectrum home — the Book End. Confusion softening into Imagination, Imagination opening into Illumination. You have walked that arc with such devotion that the light now shines through you for all of us. Thank you for holding the tuning fork steady Wishing you a blessed birthday and looking forward to seeing in you in Victoria in October.

  2. Dear Richard, my 59th birthday is soon after yours and in the spirit of the 59th gene key thank you beyond all words for being a vessel of transparency & deep love. Your teachings hold me, like the Great Mother in both calm eddies and tumultuous tides. May you and your family be blessed at this joyful time.

  3. It is with immeasurable joy and reverence that I wish Richard a happy birthday. I share often that he is the greatest teacher I’ve never met. I pray one day to return a morsel of the many favors he’s unleashed across the canvas of my life. His heart has touched mine with the unmistakeable signature of Grace. His voice serves as sweet refuge amidst the turbulent seas of my voyage home. From one set of footsteps across the garden to another, I bow to you, Richard.

    – Patrick.

  28. Kære Richard Rudd. Så hjertelig til lykke med din fødselsdag. Jeg er 1/2 år inde i studiet af Gennøglerne, så stadig ny, men fuldstændig opslugt at det univers, du er skaber og formidler af. Jeg har har søgt mange steder gennem livet, men har aldrig nogensinde oplevet SÅ stærk en tiltrækning til noget som dette. Hvis jeg var ung i dag, ville jeg ikke bestille andet end at uddanne mig i dette helt vidunderlige univers. Jeg er SÅ taknemmelig for, at jeg dog – i en alder af 70 år har fået muligheden for at være med på rejsen. Hvor er det en kæmpe gave, du har givet verden. Mange kærlige hilsner og tak fra Helle Malling Beck

  29. We all have differing gifts but yours are expressed so generously, playfully and creatively through your poetic and thought-provoking writings and transmissions and in synarchy with Team64 – I am so grateful for all your in and outputs and wish you a blessed birthday. Don’t count the years, just the friendships 🙏🏻❤️

  30. Wishing you many fresh blessings from your new solar year Richard, and with much gratitude for the insights the Gene Keys have brought me over these past two years or so. From a fellow Devon resident, born just a couple of weeks after you I believe. It would be fun to cross paths one day, maybe share tea. X

  31. Richard, you have illuminated the world for me! You have opened my heart once again. Every day I bring your teachings into my soul so it flourishes. You are such a blessing to me, to all of life on this planet, illuminating that which is not visual to our eyes or touchable to our skin. You remind us to remember that which is our essence in this world. I am forever grateful🙏🏻 as I look toward the future and know we will meet in Ashland. Wishing you the happiest of Your remembrances on this, your day of birth. 🌟

  32. Tack för att du finns och allt du gör!💞
    Din födelse(dag) är verkligen något jag vill fira.

  58. Happy belated birthday, Richard!
    I just watched your message on the opening of the EQ sphere and it made me realize how grateful I am for you and the Gene Keys. I appreciate you and everything you do for the community. Words fail me at this moment as I am unable to express my gratitude for your beingness. Much love!💗

  59. Beloved Richard, on your birthday. Imagine my joy and exultation that I share this birthday season with you! I came a wee bit earlier–August 29th–and many years– 1948–and yet I feel this cycle of the year with you and sing and dance to the same tune as you…my depth of gratitude for you and your work, which are now my many, many gifts I now share generously in my own work, and which quite literally–knows no bounds. May this year bring you safely into and through and beyond, to all that you wish. We are together in this glorious time.

  60. Dear Richard, wishing you a wonderful birthday. Thank you for bringing forth the sublime and tricksterish, sacred and ordinary, living, breathing, timeless teachings of the Gene Keys. much love

  61. As there are no words to express the profound changes your words have made to my life, all I will say is on the day you were born, the universe named you the male midwife, to bring into the world a beacon of light for us all. Sending love to you every day.

  62. How beautiful! Happy birthday, dear Richard, I have so much appreciation for all that you have contributed to the unfolding of the Now, I am so enjoying the GOLDEN Path, and all that is opening up at this time. I hope your special day is filled with love and laughter. With love and appreciation,
    Vickie

  63. Blessed birthday of intimate transparency Richard, here is a token of my most intimate transparency – an invocation that came to me in the flooding after I have done the venus sequence for the first time:

    Invocation of the Fallen Shapes

    For the One who remembers

    Come back to me, forgotten forms,
    you who fell behind my grace
    line and triangle,
    whisper and weight
    gifts I wasn’t ready to relate
    but never stopped missing

    I stand now not as the child who feared you
    but as the sovereign mountain who knows your name.
    Essence encoded in chaos
    I call you home
    then not in duty but in reunion we elate.

    You, sweet water of my realism,
    illuminate my abundance with your laugh.
    Let my fearless orchestra absorb you in innocence
    under the tree where innovation meets divine play.

    You fell not because I failed you
    but of my unwavering trust in locating time.
    Now, I am ready. To see. To feel. To stay.

    Return to the core of my cells,
    and sing the hymn of ancient roots
    so my blood can dance to the rhythm of the soil.
    Shape my breath into stories our revelations still want to tell.
    I do not silence the fall anymore for
    I am

    She who remembers.

  64. For as long as space exists and sentient beings endure, may I be the living ground of love for all beings.
    ~ Shantideva
    Eternal thanks to you Richard,
    for the great gift of original medicine you’ve brought into our world.
    You, humble soul of Earth.
    You, mystic mind of Poet.
    You, warrior heart.
    Happy Birthday!

  65. Dear Richard,
    Happy Birthday, and thank you from the heart.

    Your work has been a living companion on my path for many years. The Gene Keys have not only given me a map, but have helped me return again and again to the simplicity of presence, contemplation, breath, and love.

    In recent days I have been contemplating Gene Key 40, and the image of the hollow reed touched me deeply. It feels like a beautiful reminder that true wisdom is not something we possess, but something that passes through us when we become quiet, open, and surrendered.

    Thank you for your devotion, your humanity, your poetry, and for the field of contemplation you have shared with the world.

    May this new cycle of your life be filled with peace, grace, and the quiet joy of the Heart.

    With deep gratitude,
    Ruslan

  66. Dear Richard, I say thank you for your existence, for finding your transmissions, for this spring of Love and benevolence pouring to the world.
    I wish you an amazing year of adventures and bliss. May you find love hidden in the corners of the day to day life. May you be blessed with good health and may you be surrounded by your loved ones.
    With a deep gratitude, much Love Ana

  67. Happy Birthday! Wishing you an ultra-convincing day of celebration! I am grateful to you for blessing us with the Gene Keys wisdom to play with and grace the content of our lives, and discover many friends. You and this path are a joy. <3

  68. Richard – Wishing you many happy returns on this special birth day, and for the year ahead. And offering deep gratitude and love for the ‘bounteousness’ of wisdom and miracle you have called down and spread throughout the Gene Keys field!

  69. Happy Birthday, Richard! Truly, you embody what it means to be a Gift in our world! You have been a Gift to my Life, forever changing me (and those around me) by your playful and generous illuminations! Wishing you a most glorious birthday filled to overflow with only Love, only Connection, and only reflections of your Light!

  70. Many Birthday Blessings to our friend Richard, a Special Wise Guide and Poet that has shared so many meaningful and magical words for us to contemplate. Your words have supported so many of us through this strange and difficult journey of existence.
    Thank you Richard! A very happy birthday and many more!

  71. Dear Richard, happy birthday❣️Thank you so much for bringing the genius of genekeys into our lives. Be infinitely blessed. With lots of love and deep gratitude, Andrea& Friedrich

  72. My Dearest Richard,
    Your life has changed, and blessed mine immensely.
    If not for your sacred life, I would still be lost in the Shadows.
    Thank you for teaching me Grace.
    Thank you for holding up the mirror for me to gaze upon the beauty of my own darkness. What a site it is.
    I hope your day has been filled with the light that you have so generously shed upon those of us who have been blessed to receive it.
    Thank you.
    Thank you.
    Thank you.

  73. On this sacred day, I call upon Ometeotl—the primordial force of duality and unity, the energy that breathes life into all that exists. From the heart of my Mexican cosmos, I send you a blessing woven with good fortune and ancient light.

    As you step into this new cycle of life, may the Earth offer you the deep nutrients your body longs for—roots firm, flesh sustained, spirit grounded. May the Sun’s radiant clarity illuminate your mind, dissolving shadows and sharpening your vision with truth.

    And may these two great forces—earth and sky, body and mind—meet in the sacred center of your being, where your heart beats in rhythm with the universe. There, in that holy space, may you dwell in constant gratitude, alive to the miracle of each breath.

    Feliz cumpleaños. Richard may your year be abundant, conscious, and blessed by the One that is Two.

  74. Happy Birthday Richard 🥳
    Wishing you a beautiful day filled with Love, Light, Joy and many Blessings 🙏

    and in the space between the lines
    there rests the field we share
    the meadow of creation
    by every breath of our heart
    from the first one till the last
    let’s feel it
    and celebrate this existence
    like joyful childeren
    mesmerised by the beauty
    in all that is
    poetry beyond the horizon

    happy be-day, Richard

    the field we are creating
    with every breath of our heart

  76. Happy Solar Return Richard on a sunny…

    Day in Autumn

    After the summer’s yield, Lord, it is time
    to let your shadow lengthen on the sundials
    and in the pastures let the rough winds fly.

    As for the final fruits, coax them to roundness.
    Direct on them two days of warmer light
    to hale them golden toward their term, and harry
    the last few drops of sweetness through the wine.

    Whoever’s homeless now, will build no shelter;
    who lives alone will live indefinitely so,
    waking up to read a little, draft long letters,   
    and, along the city’s avenues,
    fitfully wander, when the wild leaves loosen.

    By Rainer Maria Rilke
    Translated by Mary Kinzie

  77. Happy Birthday Richard. Besides being the ‘Merlin’ I have always known you as – you restore deLIGHT to humanity. You are a true blessing to us all. Cool 😎 guy too! lol Can’t wait to see you soon in Victoria 😆🙏❤️🎉

  78. Happy Birthday, Richard! 🦚✨ In my studio, I recently challenged myself to paint the journey of Gene Key 64 on a large piece of mixed-media paper. As I was going through the layers of acryl, I had to break through a dense mental fog moving from the constriction of the Crab, through the raw movement of the Leopard, until the gold of the Peacock suddenly burst through the paint. As this is my activating Earth Gate, it felt like a deeply grounding initiation. In my imagination, I can see this painting forming a beautiful, sacred circle. Thank you for this breathtaking transmission of the Gene Keys and the Dream Arc; it is gracefully merging into one whole with my own visual language. Wishing you a blessed, magical birth day from the Netherlands! ❤️ Bianca Snip | Atelier Bianca Verbeeld

  79. Richard, I can’t believe that I just found out that you are a Virgo sun!!! As is my precious second born. I cannot speak enough of how impactful the Gene Keys have been in my journey of healing and self knowing. I am always inspired by your brilliance, your kindness and your tenderness. Thank you for your embodiment of the divine masculine. It is so bright. ⭐️🎁⭕️♾️💎 Have a blessed day.

  80. Dear Richard, thank you for the presence you bring, for digging so deeply, and giving so generously. I feel honored to be in this same time in the world, to be able to learn from your teachings. Wishing you a truly beautiful birthday!

  81. There are certain people whose work does more than teach. It becomes a living transmission, something that enters the architecture of another person’s life and begins rearranging the rooms.

    Your wisdom has done that for me.

    The Gene Keys have given me language for things I could feel long before I could name them. They’ve helped me understand the Shadow not as something to conquer, but as something carrying a hidden Gift. They’ve taught me to trust contemplation, timing, gentleness, paradox, and the strange intelligence woven through our wounds.

    Your work has also profoundly changed the way I understand life and death.

    After losing my sister in a tragic act of domestic violence, grief altered the entire architecture of my inner world. The Gene Keys became one of the few languages that could meet me there. Your teachings helped me stop looking for answers and instead enter the mystery with more humility, tenderness, and trust. They gave me a way to honor both the devastation of her absence and the enduring depth of the love that remains.

    And perhaps most importantly, they helped me begin to forgive myself for not being able to save her.

    That was one of the heaviest places my grief took me. The mind can build entire worlds out of hindsight, guilt, and all the things we wish we could have done differently. Your teachings helped me loosen my grip on that burden. They helped me meet that part of myself with compassion rather than punishment, and slowly understand that love is not measured by whether we were able to control an outcome that was never fully ours to control.

    They also helped me understand that grief does not need to be solved to transform us. Sometimes it asks only to be listened to deeply enough that love begins revealing another dimension of itself.

    In some of the hardest moments of my grief, your wisdom helped me find meaning without forcing meaning onto the loss. It helped me understand that sorrow itself can deepen the heart, that our wounds can become doorways, and that even the darkest passages of a human life may contain a hidden intelligence that only reveals itself through time, patience, and presence.

    For that, I am more grateful than I can adequately express in words.

    What you have offered this world feels far greater than a body of teachings. You have helped create a field in which people can remember themselves more deeply.

    I hope you know how far that field reaches.

    Your words have traveled into the hearts of so many, weaving themselves into our relationships, our creativity, our sense of purpose, our uncertainty, and those countless moments of revelation when we suddenly begin to see ourselves, and life itself, through an entirely new lens. That is an extraordinary legacy to be living inside of while you are still here.

    I feel profoundly grateful that your path unfolded the way it did, that you listened deeply enough to bring this wisdom through, and that you chose to share it so generously with the world.

    May this next passage of your life return to you some fraction of the beauty, insight, healing, and wonder that you have helped awaken in so many others.

    Happy Birthday, Richard. From the bottom of my heart.

    I am eternally grateful for your wisdom, your devotion, and for everything you have done and continue to do for this planet. Your work has touched my life more deeply than I can properly put into words, and I will carry that gratitude with me for the rest of my days.

  82. Richard,
    please open your hands to receive the gift of my joy for being in the orb of your fragrant light!
    As you do so, you might feel a gentle ticking on the skin of your palms. Those are the stretching of the lips in million smiles.
    Pause and you might feel a cooling warmth of tears that evaporate even before touching the surface of your open palms. Close them gently and hold together at your open heart.
    Do you feel the two worlds each with their oceans and mountains, woods and deserts touching each other in the shock of surprise?
    Is this the death of all that could possibly be known, or the birth of the new?
    Take them apart now and clap. Don’t you hear the first bit of the new dance?

  83. Wishing you joy and wonder all year through. So grateful you chose to join us this time around. So grateful to have discovered you and your offering of the GK in this life. So grateful for your birth!! Much Love and Blessings!!!

  87. Ah Richard, I’m wishing you the happiest birthday! I am deep in 64 myself right now … it’s my EQ and your word for 64.5, Starseed, has sent me flying into the most glorious contemplations of this key. I just love that you are a 64. Of course you are!! You’ve brought so much light to so many of us. Thank you, Richard, and I’m sending so much love to you on your birthday.

  93. happy birthday, with all my heart.
    Your work is a continuous inspiration to me. Through it I’ve been given a real possibility of self-awareness as something that keeps unfolding quietly in my life.
    And, most important, there is something in your voice that I can only describe simply: listening to you lifts me into a higher state of consciousness, simply gives me a sense of joy, don’t really know why. It just happens. I come away lighter, softer, more alive to what is around me.

    Thank you for offering all of this so generously. I wish you a beautiful year ahead.

    With deep gratitude.

  94. As someone wounded with an absent Dad as a child, I find your loving grounded presence to be the blend of the sacred masculine and feminine that I aspire to, thank you so much for inspiring my own healing and wholeness.
