Core asks: my core wound: what hurts at the root, and what heals it

My core wound: what hurts at the root, and what heals it.

The Venus Sequence is the second: five spheres about love, relationships and the emotional patterns under them.

Whichever key sits here in your profile, this is where it plays out.

Core runs from how the wound shows up to how it heals

How the wound shows up

In the everyday pattern, you are cut off from your own nature. You perform an identity instead of living it, and the gap between how you appear and who you are causes quiet suffering.

How it heals

The way through is to stop managing your image and trust what is underneath it. The core does not need to be built. It needs to be uncovered, and it is enough.

At its highest

At its highest, you no longer need to explain who you are. People feel it, and it is unmistakable.

The line in your Core changes how it works

The key in this sphere comes with a line from 1 to 6. In Core, each line reads like this:

The six lines in the Core sphere
LineIn Core
1. InvestigatorIn the wound: the feeling that the ground could give way at any moment.
2. HermitIn the wound: being wanted for what you do, and never left alone to just be.
3. ExperimenterIn the wound: being told, again, that you got it wrong.
4. NetworkerIn the wound: the fear of being left outside the circle.
5. UniversaliserIn the wound: being made into what other people needed, then dropped.
6. Role ModelIn the wound: watching from the outside, never quite part of it.
