THE 7 STEPS TO DIVINE MASCULINITY - A Rite of Passage with Gideon Le Roux (EUR)

The 7 Steps to Divine Masculinity is a structured 7-week journey
delivered through one-on-one virtual sessions with Gideon le Roux.
Each week, you'll meet for approximately 60–75 minutes — at a time
that suits your schedule — and dive deeply into one of the
transformational steps.*

These sessions are not casual conversations. They are initiatory
dialogues. You will be challenged, guided, and given specific
practices to embody between sessions — including journaling, movement,
fasting, and silence.

This is a mentorship container, not a course. You bring your real life
to the table — your habits, wounds, doubts, longings — and you walk
out every week a little more aligned, a little more dangerous, and a
little more sacred.

Costs: EUR 1.200 for International Clients
(South African Citizens please reach out for a discount!)

Start Date: to be confirmed between client & Gideon after booking confirmation

THE 7 STEPS

Step 1: FEAR – Face the Abyss, Walk Through the Fire

Most men carry fear like a shadow — unspoken, unexamined, and shaping
every decision. The first step is simple, but it’s not easy: name your
fear. You will bring it into the light and stand before it with
clarity and courage. This is the gateway to transformation.

Fear becomes fuel when understood. Pain becomes wisdom when
integrated. If you are not willing to confront what haunts you —
shame, failure, abandonment, death — then you will remain a puppet to
it. But if you walk through the fire consciously, something deeper
awakens: courage with roots.

“The man who avoids the dragon lives in the village. The man who slays
it becomes the king.”


Step 2: FOOD / SEX – Reclaim the Sacred and Break the Chains of Appetite

The masculine is not meant to be a slave to pleasure. Yet modern men
are addicted — to sugar, pornography, comfort, excess. This step is a
confrontation with your own appetite. We introduce fasting, sexual
discipline, and the re-sacralization of the body.

You will fast — from food, from overstimulation, from empty
gratification. Not as punishment, but as purification. You will study
your relationship with desire — and learn to transmute it into
strength, presence, and clarity.

Sex becomes communion when paired with devotion. Food becomes
nourishment when approached with reverence. This is how the animal
becomes the sacred warrior.

“To govern yourself is to become trustworthy. If you can’t say no, you
are not free.”


Step 3: POWER – The Warrior Trains, the Weak Man Complains

This is where discipline enters. Real power is not dominance over
others. It is the capacity to act when necessary, to restrain when
wise, and to persist when it would be easier to quit. This step
activates the archetype of the warrior.

You will be challenged physically. Daily practices. Morning
discipline. Stillness and movement. Training is not optional — it is
the very language of integrity. Because if your body is weak, your
mind will follow. And a man without strength is a danger to himself
and others.

“Power is responsibility accepted. The warrior trains not to fight,
but to be worthy of peace.”


Step 4: LOVE – The Lover is Not Soft, He is Devoted

Love is not sentimentality. It is not indulgence. Love is clarity,
action, and sacrifice in service of something greater. In this step,
we dismantle the false ideas of love — co-dependence, performance,
manipulation — and return to the root.

You will reframe your relationship with love: of self, others, the
divine. You will learn the difference between needing someone and
choosing someone. Between loving as a transaction and loving as a
state of being.

To be a lover is to be vulnerable and strong — to hold others without
abandoning yourself. It is one of the highest expressions of mature
masculinity.

“The man who can love without possession, give without depletion, and
stay without fear — that is a man who has become whole.”


Step 5: TRUTH – Speak as if Your Soul Depends on It (Because It Does)

Truth is the foundation of masculine alignment. Yet many men have
never truly spoken — not from the depths of themselves. They say what
is convenient, or expected. Here, we begin to speak what is true.

This step develops your voice. Literally and symbolically. You will
learn to speak from your gut. To own your values. To set boundaries
without collapse. You will confront the lies you’ve told — to others
and to yourself — and replace them with precision and courage.

The voice of the masculine is not loud. It is grounded. It shakes the
room not by volume, but by integrity.

“When a man speaks truth, the world organizes around him. When he
lies, it falls apart.”


Step 6: PERCEPTION – Enter the Darkness and Learn to See Without Eyes

The rational mind has its limits. There are truths that can’t be
measured, only experienced. This step draws you into the symbolic, the
intuitive, the unseen.

You will practice stillness. Dreamwork. Listening. Silence. Here, we
cultivate the eye that sees within — and the ear that hears between
words. You’ll begin to trust your inner compass. Not as superstition,
but as deep perception. This is the day of darkness — where the false
self dissolves and the eternal self begins to whisper.

You can’t think your way to truth. You must surrender to it.

“In silence, the soul speaks. In darkness, light reveals itself.”


Step 7: DIVINE MASCULINITY – Stand as a Pillar Between Earth and Heaven

This is not about being "alpha." This is about being aligned. Having a
code. Living by it. And serving something greater than yourself.

This final step integrates everything. You craft a personal value
system. You examine your faith — not dogma, but relationship with the
sacred. With God, or whatever you call that which is beyond you. You
decide what kind of man you will be, and what kind of world you’re
helping build.

This is divine masculinity: purpose-driven, rooted in love, strong
enough to carry weight, and wise enough to surrender. The world
doesn’t need more men. It needs better men. And that begins with you.

“The mature masculine doesn’t seek status. He builds structure. And in
that structure, others rise.”


AFTER THE 7 STEPS 

Upon completion, you'll be invited to join the Men’s Circle — a
fortnightly online gathering where graduates continue the work
together. This is where brotherhood is built.

The circle is not open to the public. It is earned.
It is where leadership is forged, and where men hold each other to the
fire — not to shame, but to sharpen.

Testimonial Frederik K.
I met Gideon a few years ago in India, during a profound healing journey out of burnout. What began as a chance encounter soon became a turning point in my life. Gideon awakened something deep within me – my spiritual awareness, my connection to inner energy, and the strength to listen to my soul’s voice again.

Since then, he has become not just a guide, but a trusted life counsellor and coach. Whether I'm navigating personal crossroads or professional uncertainty, Gideon’s presence brings clarity. He listens deeply – with rare patience and empathy – and always seems to draw from a Swiss Army knife of insights, metaphors, and tools that invite transformation.

His ability to find the right words, ask the questions that truly matter, and hold space without judgment has helped me realign with my purpose and values. If you're seeking more than advice – if you're looking for someone who will walk beside you as you reconnect to yourself – Gideon is that person.

I’m deeply grateful for his guidance and have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone seeking authentic, grounded, and transformative support.
