Cobra the interpretation that take from Deidas work is a bit different.

The career and the purpose are just manifestations of that presence and consciousness in a realm that are not in relationship. The gifts that you give are of your masculine consciousness and presence not only to your wife but the world (cosmos/creation/everything/god).
