Greetings from Sedona! This spiritual hub and "new age mecca" has become my home very recently and it was exciting to see how living a ten minute walk from an energy vortex really opened up (and sped up) my channeling ability for this monthly forecast. I hope to have more experiences to share with you in the future. In the meantime, I hope the upcoming full moon and month overall prove to be fruitful for you all. Read below for a general reading for what energies to expect in July 2022.
Energy of the Month:Reverse 4 of cups ~More Than This (Roxy Music)~
The pursuit of new chapters gives rise to some destabilization, unsteadiness, and a need to find footing again. With every new endeavor we leave that which was familiar and well understood, and we tread to a place that was beyond our comfort zone. Without which, how could we ever explore new horizons?
Nevertheless, what was once an abstract ideal from afar has now become a reality to contend with. This can put us in a place of doubt, uncertainty, and a feeling of lack of emotional grounding. It is especially important now more than ever to reach out to your support network, who will remind you of all your past accomplishments and the trials you’ve overcome, so that you can put this sense of destabilization into a higher perspective. This is the first stage of integrating your new reality, and there will be some unsteady footing before you regain confidence through immersion and gaining deeper understanding of what you manifested and put intentions towards in June.
Love: 8 of cups ~Love is all you need (Beatles)~
Though there may be emotional and intuitive uncertainty within, remember that you have an infinite wealth of love to tap into in the form of your support network. Our mind can often trick us into thinking that we are having an isolated experience, that we alone are not measuring up somehow. In reality, we are part of a multiplicity and we are all in this together. Cosmically, the network around you is keeping you well balanced as you dive into this new cycle. When you are stuck in a loop of your own thoughts, go out and interact, dance, and rejoice with your community when you seek rejuvenation and need to fill your cup. You have nourished this “garden” network and can feel joy, pride, and accomplishment here.
Money: Reverse 4 of Pentacles ~You Can’t Always Get What You Want (Rolling Stones)~
Tight finances as a result of new pursuits are likely a part of the emotional instability felt in our overall energy for the month. We find ourselves wondering - Was the price worth it? Did I unsettle and unground my sense of financial well being too much in favor of the new influx? If we get sucked into this spiral of thinking we can find ourselves feeling a depletion of hope, faith and courage. We may feel that we didn’t appreciate our previous state of being (even if it was imperfect), and that we shouldn’t have left that safe point of existence.
At least from an emotional/validation standpoint, you will be able to “get by with a little help from your friends.” You will need to be replenished financially, fortunately work will help replenish this area of life and take care of your basic necessities. “You can’t always get what you want. But if you try sometimes, you find, you get what you need.”
Work: Temperance ~Stay High (Brittany Howard)~
For those of us who feel a calling to pursue spiritual work or works of service towards others, this month is the opportune month to put that into action. Where we find imbalance in areas of life, we can find it in work- the Universe is working to bring balance in your career in both the practical, material and active needs with emotional, spiritual, and inner journey needs. Alchemy and integration can be found in work this month, and we find grounding in the pursuit of enlightenment (flowing from head to foot) and honoring our soul. These energies that we normally think of as dualistic and in opposition flow between each other and inform and strengthen the other. Be open to a higher calling.
Health: Reverse Magician ~Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God) (Kate Bush)~
The energy of this month can lead to us feeling overwhelmed–like we are dividing ourselves between trying to succeed in all the elements of life at once. When we try to do it all we end up dropping the ball. When this happens we can judge ourselves too harshly and feel like we are not measuring up. It is better to slow down and focus on one thing at a time, keeping in mind our passions and what we are fighting for at the forefront. We tend to feel alone, unsupported and ungrounded when we get buried under the “to do list.” If we take it too far we can even physically manifest this as a fever, headaches, recurring nightmares, dissociation, and a sense that everything has been turned on its head. We will need to take a step back and reach out to others to support you (listening to your favorite music will also help). Rather than comparing where we are to the end result, we must be kind to ourselves when taking the steps to get there.
We may feel constrained, isolated, and removed for others. We may be seeking a psychic connection to others. We may get stuck in past failures that keep us from drawing on the present and on our more newly learned resources. If we can face our past and come to terms with ourselves and our past mistakes, we can regain our power.
Spirit: Priestess ~Claire de Lune (Debussy)~
This is a good month to channel your inner priestess- whether this is through intuitive, Akashic, and/or academic learning, as directed by your inner curiosity. Your spirit this month finds nourishment and validation through gaining a deeper understanding of your choices and your surroundings. You’ll be able to determine your actions wisely once this understanding is gained and you’ll have a clear vision (locking into the higher, deeper, inner truth). You will gain the most this month from reading, learning, studying spiritually, and recording and analyzing dreams. This will help balance out any unease or feeling like a struggling apprentice that we experience in other areas of life. Learning leads to success.
Thanks!
