🌀 OVERVIEW: Entering the Portal of Personal Power

This season’s energetic terrain is a bridge between inner recalibration and outer ignition.

From late June into early July, we exit with a focus on bonding, boundaries, and breaking patterns of overcommitment. The beginning of July signals a need to ground the body, let go of perfection, and trust your inner well.

Layer in a Mercury retrograde mid-July, Mars conjunct Ketu, Pluto already retrograde, Saturn turning retrograde, and Neptune in reverse motion — and we find ourselves in a full-spectrum cosmic decluttering of instinct, ego, and the pressure to push forward.

This is not the time for blind acceleration. It’s the time to travel wisely, speak softly, and recalibrate deeply.

This season’s energetic terrain is a bridge between inner recalibration and outer ignition.

This stuff happening with the Earth is happening in real time. As much as we would love to blame the politics or any particular country, what we’re really facing is a collective anger and a deep grip on the old — the systems, beliefs, and identities that are no longer viable.

Our energy may be hard to gauge. What is our capacity? What is our bandwidth? No need to rush. No need to override.

🔮 PLANETARY THEMES



🌑 June 28–30 | Surrender & Reset

♌ JULY 1–17 | Inspired Stillness + Creative Reassessment This first half of July invites you to ground new desires in discipline, but without force. Let ideas come, but wait to act. Mercury slows down, and the body whispers: “Pause. Observe. Correct gently.”

🦁 JULY 18–31 | Mercury Retrograde & the Leo Reset This second half is fiery, expressive, and unstable. Think: breakthroughs through breakdowns. Mercury retrograde and Uranus in Gemini may bring surprise communications, travel mixups, and ego-driven reactions. But it’s more than that — the Lionsgate Portal begins July 26, and energy sensitivity will reach a heightened peak.

Empaths, intuitives, and sensitives may feel unmoored, overstimulated, or even grief-stricken without clear cause. Collective overwhelm is not just energetic — it's cellular. Honor your emotions. Honor your needs. Give space to the unseen and the ineffable.

✈️ TRAVEL GUIDANCE FOR SUMMER | June 28 – August 31 Let’s be honest: this is not a great time to travel. Between four planetary retrogrades, Mercury reversing through fire, collective overwhelm, and the energetic crescendo of Lionsgate — travel is likely to be disorienting, exhausting, and at times disheartening. Allow your body to guide you here and not the mind.

Date Range

Energy Quality

Travel Advice

June 28–July 4

Slightly breathable, if intentional

Short/local is best. Hydrate. Ground often.

July 5–12

Pressure building

May want to Avoid long trips; nervous systems are reactive.

July 13–17

Saturn + Mercury shadow

Stay local. Expect people to cancel or plans to shift.

July 18–31

High volatility + Lionsgate energies

Stay home if possible. The nervous system needs refuge.

August 1–15

Integration or confusion

Avoid rushing plans. Gentle movement only.

August 16–31

Lionsgate closes; energy still high

Short drives okay. Major travel not ideal.

If you’re sensitive, empathic, or recovering from burnout, do not force travel right now. Honor the body’s instincts. Be okay with changing your mind. Rest is resistance.


🔑 YOUR SEASONAL MANTRA "I move at the speed of my system, not the noise of the world."

Let July and August be a time of meaningful restraint, where you create more by doing less, and reconnect with your inner compass before launching anything new. We’re heading through Lionsgate. Protect your peace.

🔆 Upcoming Kundalini Yoga Offerings


🜃 The Stillness Before the Shift

This is a foggy recalibration zone. Pluto, Neptune, Saturn, and Mercury are all retrograde. We are not meant to “move ahead.” We are meant to refine, reassess, and re-feel.

The economy is unstable. Emotions are inflamed. Clarity is optional. Stop trying to fix everything. Let what's false collapse. Be with the internal combustion.


💸 ECONOMIC & COLLECTIVE OUTLOOK

  1. The Economy:

    Increased uncertainty, market overreaction, bureaucratic breakdowns

    Advice: Spend less, save more, simplify finances, get wills & trusts in order

  2. Geopolitical Tension:

    Verbal misfires, failed tech, cyber incidents, unstable leadership

    More risk of fog-of-war confusion than direct escalation

  3. Mental Health:

    Disconnection, fantasy loops, nervous system shutdowns

    Advice: Speak less, move slower, buffer your bandwidth


🧠 When the Mind Says "Go" but the Body Says "Wait"

People want to move forward. But many cannot. This is a time of dissonance.

  • Events (in-person or online) may be under-attended

  • People cancel last-minute or ghost unintentionally

  • Fatigue will override plans

What helps:

  • Offer low-pressure containers

  • Allow for replays and flexible access

  • Leave more space between communications

If you're the one feeling this — See it as you responding to reality.


🧯 Let It Fall: A Story for July

Sometimes the safest thing is to let it fall. When too much is stacked, and something tips, trying to catch it can injure you. Let it break. Let it scatter. Save yourself first. Not because you’re passive — but because your presence matters more than your control.


🧘‍♀️ If You’re Angry: Stop, Breathe, Exit the Loop

  • Drop the story. Just say: “This is activation.”

  • Hands on body. Anchor.

  • 5-count breath in, hold, out x3

  • Say: “Let it fall. It’s okay if this moment breaks.”

  • Ask: What needs protecting — my pride or my peace?


💡Learn to navigate on this plane. Watch the movie of life, but do not see it as self. Live correctly as self. It is not about saving anything. Use this opportunity to awaken to yourself. Surrender to not being run by your mind. This is the only challenge.

Your form knows. Treat your body correctly. Live the magic of you as if it will never be seen again. A Swan Song.

Not everything broken needs fixing. Sometimes what breaks is a lie. Sometimes what breaks is the illusion of what we thought we had to be.

Let July and August show you new perspectives. Let the sensitivity rise — not as weakness, but as wisdom. Let the brokenness be sacred. Let it reveal what no longer fits.

We are not collapsing. We are shedding the weight of pretending, living a facade, or wearing a mask. And from there — we can step into or rebuild something real.

 
 

🌀 Truth Overdrive Edition: Nervous Systems on Notice · Sacred Pauses Ahead · Giddy-Up for Saturn’s Reality **Listen inward instead of forcing outward.


🌐 WHAT’S HAPPENING: JUNE 13–18, 2025

We’re in a pressure cooker of planetary square dances—Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune are all stomping on each other’s toes. This isn’t chaos for the sake of drama. It’s a cosmic course correction.

Expect:

  • Old patterns getting loud so you finally listen

  • New desires feeling risky, yet oddly magnetic

  • Truths surfacing that feel both sobering and strangely liberating

You might feel torn between:

  • Pushing forward vs. dropping everything

  • Dreaming big vs. doubting everything

  • Needing solitude vs. craving deep contact

The nervous system is on high alert. The psyche is shifting narratives. The soul is trying to remind you who you really are.

It’s not about being “on track.” Well it is, but its about being on track with yourself. It’s about being honest.


🧭 Want to know how this is impacting you directly? Book a private session. We’ll map your unique overlays and decode what’s showing up for your specific Being.


✨ MENU OF WHAT’S INSIDE:

  • What the Sky is Whispering (Transits + Translation)

  • Lunar Mood (Emotional weather via the Moon)

  • Soul Nourishment (Sleep, slowness, and sacred pause)

  • Handle Your Business (Prep checklist)

  • Ishnaan: Cold Water Therapy (Mini reboot, if the fog’s got you)

  • Summer Offerings (Online programs to keep you grounded and glowing)


🔭 WHAT THE SKY IS WHISPERING: June 13–18, 2025

The vibe this week? Like you just got seated on the wrong rollercoaster, but it’s too late to get off. Buckle up, breathe through the loop-de-loops.

Here’s what’s up:

  • June 15: Mars squares Uranus → Surprise stress? Channel it wisely.

  • June 15: Jupiter squares Saturn → Old limits meet big dreams. Wait before leaping.

  • June 18: Jupiter squares Neptune → Time for a dream detox. Discern what’s real.

These planetary punches are testing your nervous system's ability to choose what’s worth reacting to. Think: Less whiplash, more inner witness.

Saturn is still in Aries (so is Neptune), so the lesson is: You’re not “behind.” You’re reformatting. Respond, Pause, Flailing in mid-air may be an option as well as long as you can rein yourself in.

Meanwhile, Mr. Golden Sun is illuminating the need for expressive truth, while Earth keeps tugging us toward inner reflection and embodied clarity. Mercury is stirring the pot with quick shifts in perception and language. Venus is deep in refinement mode, inviting grace where there’s been grit. And then there’s Uranus—our cosmic disruptor—reminding us that change isn’t coming, it’s already here.

And Pluto? Don’t be fooled by its status as a "dwarf" planet. Retrograde or not, Pluto is the deep-force tectonic mover. It was never meant to be put in a corner. The tiny ones often shake the foundation the most—and Pluto’s about to prove that in a very real way in the very near future.



🪷 BODY WISDOM This is your invitation to remember you are Human.

You are not meant to move at lightning speed. Not sustainably. Not honestly. The flesh—your body—is not a machine. It’s your compass. It was never meant to endlessly override its limits, even if that’s what you were trained to do.

This week may bring a powerful reminder: if you’ve been pushing too long, something may come to stop you in your tracks. And that “something” is often the body. Dis-ease, pain, fatigue, anxiety, burnout—these are not betrayals. They’re communication.

The truth is, most people are wildly disconnected from their bodies and don’t even realize it. They follow the mind, obey expectations, and ignore the deeper signals until the body demands their attention.

We all have subtle inner alerts long before things manifest physically. But you have to be quiet enough inside to hear them. And yes—some minds are nonstop. That’s not the problem. The problem is identifying with everything the mind says.

Your thoughts are not all yours. Most are just passing through. Let them.

Let the mind do its thing. But don’t let it rule.


All are excellent options to anchor yourself in your body this week.


😴 SOUL NOURISHMENT: Sleep Alone, Stay Sovereign

Why it matters now:

  • You’re digesting more emotional and planetary input than usual.

  • Sharing sleep space can entangle your nervous system with others’.

  • Pets, partners, and chaos gremlins may be cute—but your aura needs its own field to reset.

Try:

  • Sleeping solo a few nights a week.

  • No screens at least 45 min before bed.

  • Listening to your breath instead of your brain.


💦 GIVE YOURSELF A “POP” WITH ISHNAAN

Cold water = Nervous system CPR. Feeling cold depression? Brain fog? Drowsy for no reason?

Try this:

  • Splash cold water on face + wrists

  • Rinse feet + ankles in cold water

  • Sink-shower one foot at a time

  • Full-body if ready (with oil before)

Why? It stimulates circulation, balances glandular function, and helps you snap back into clarity.

Caution: Skip full-body cold showers if pregnant, frail, have cardiovascular issues or severely fatigued. Ease in slowly. Small = still sacred.


🧾 HANDLE YOUR BUSINESS

This is not panic—it’s prep. June’s giving you a portal to get your life in order before July spins the wheel again.

✔️ IDs, passports, licenses: Review now✔️ Medical/dental: Appointments before mid-July✔️ Investment + estate docs: Refresh and revisit✔️ Passwords + backups: Don’t procrastinate✔️ Declutter: Physical + energetic. You feel what you’re storing.



🌀 REMEMBER: You are not meant to keep up with every demand, every plan, every pace that’s been pushed on you.

This is a potent week to recognize the difference between your true pacing—and the speed of your conditioning. The pace of your family, your society, your past survival modes. They are not the appropriate measuring stick.

Now’s the time to tune into your breath, your body, your being—and explore what slowing down really looks like, see it as accessing a portal.

And if lately you've found yourself saying, "Mmm... did I forget something? What was I doing again?" — you're not alone. It’s not necessarily age. It’s this shift from rigid logic to something else: intuitive, mysterious, nonlinear. We’re in it. Let yourself notice.

Be still enough to feel where you are. Then begin again, gently.

We are entering a new planetary dance—one that requires presence and not performance. You can’t fake this next phase. It’s not about brute force. It’s about how consciously you live your individuality.

And yes, even things like following instructions or putting together a cat tree may suddenly feel impossible. That’s your cue—not to push harder, but to wait until clarity lands. One thing at a time. Grace, not grind.

Burnout is real. Rock bottom is real. And clarity often comes after both. The old scaffolding you’ve leaned on? It may be crumbling—not as punishment, but as liberation.

Navigating June's emotional Whirlpools w/Snacks, Sleep, and Self-Honesty.

🌌 What the Sky Is Whispering and what your aura might be too fried to hear clearly.

✨ Planetary Vibe:

  • Early June: Energy exchanges are under a magnifying glass. Who’s energizing you? Who’s siphoning your soul?

  • June 11 – Full Moon: You don’t need to perform anymore. Release the mask. Say what you mean, even if it’s whispered.

  • June 15: Mars square Jupiter – The pressure to DO something peaks. Don’t force it. Pause and reassess.

  • June 18: Jupiter square Neptune – Illusion alert. Don’t mistake daydreams for divine instruction. Ground your vision.

  • June 21: Summer Solstice – Sacred turning point. Let this be a pivot, not a push. A moment to pause and choose differently. Align with your fire.

  • June 24: Jupiter Cazimi – Heart-centered clarity. Expansion from the inside out.

💬 Emotional Undercurrents

  • June 25 – New Moon: Simplicity is power. Clean slate, clean energy, clean start.



🦆 Handle Your Business

Before the second half of June starts hurling emotional dodgeballs and eclipse shadows:

✅ Renew IDs and licenses✅ Update legal docs (Like your Living Will) + passwords✅ Book overdue appointments (including “I should’ve checked that six months ago”)✅ Back up your devices and files✅ Review finances — align money with mission

This isn’t “get everything done. ”It’s “get what matters clear.”


Reminder: You don’t owe anyone productivity in a planetary mosh pit.

If you’re tired, slow, or weirdly emotional — that’s not failure. That’s data.

✨ Burnout is real.✨ Adrenal fatigue is lurking.✨ And you’ve been running at a pace that isn’t actually yours.

🧘‍♀️ Try This: Exercise Set for the Kidneys

Left nostril breathing for 3–5 minutes. Place your right thumb over your right nostril, breathe slowly in and out through the left. Let your system unwind without permission slips.

Mantra optional: “My pace is sacred. My stillness is intelligent.”

🥥 Recipe of the Week

Cooling Coconut Cardamom Chia Pudding

  • 1 can full-fat coconut milk

  • 2 tbsp chia seeds

  • ½ tsp cardamom

  • 1 tsp maple syrup or honey

  • Pinch of sea salt

  • Fresh mint + berries to top

Mix. Chill. Eat like the nourished, magical being you are. Hydrating. Nervous-system supportive. And it won’t spike your blood sugar like your third iced coffee will.


(a.k.a. Ishnaan, the Cold Water Reset for When It’s All Too Much or daily!)

Too much screen time? Too many emotions? Too many people in your field?

Give yourself a POP—the refreshing kind. Not a soda, not a sound, but a sacred splash. This is Ishnaan, the yogic art of cold water hydrotherapy—both a nervous system reset and a spiritual wake-up call.

💧 Go BIG or Start Small. You Can Do This. You don’t need a heroic cold plunge to begin. Try:

  • 💦 Hands and wrists under cold water for 30 seconds

  • 👣 Feet and ankles in the sink or basin (one foot at a time totally counts)

  • 🧊 A splash of cold water on your face, especially around eyes, cheeks, and jaw

You might grumble at first. You’ll thank yourself later.

🌬️ Why Do It? Because sometimes, the fog rolls in.

If you’re experiencing:

  • Cold depression (when vitality hides and everything feels gray)

  • Fatigue that’s more than just sleepy—it’s soul-dragging

  • The drowsies (midday zone-outs, sluggish starts, doom scroll inertia)

Ishnaan helps:

  • Activate the vagus nerve (hello calm clarity)

  • Improve circulation and presence

  • Break up emotional stagnation

  • Realign you with your breath and boundary

It’s like a spiritual espresso—without the crash.

“I am not stuck—I am waking up. ”Even this water loves me back into life.”

⏰ When to Try It:

  • Morning sluggishness or after a nap

  • Right before or after social interactions

  • During screen-time overload

  • When your body says “no more” but your to-do list says “yes more”


🧴 Bonus Tip: Oil + Cold = Safer Reset

Before a full cold shower or soak, coat your skin with a light layer of sesame or almond oil. It adds protection and helps ground you instead of jarring your system.


⚠️ Caution: Modify or Skip If:

  • You’re in shock, hypoglycemic, have Raynaud’s, low BP, or heavy menstrual cycle

  • You’re in active trauma or find cold triggering

  • You’re unsure—start with lukewarm and work cooler over time

This isn’t punishment. This is presence. This is Ishnaan—a reset for your subtle body and your sacred breath.

“I am not stuck—I am waking up. ”Even this water loves me back into life.”

In a time when everyone’s field is loud, sleeping alone isn’t lonely—it’s wise. Whether it’s your pet, partner, whoever your sharing a wall with or phone lighting up next to your head… the body doesn’t lie. Your system processes other people’s auras even in deep sleep. And right now, when Saturn is reorganizing structure and Neptune is flooding the dreamworld with truth and distortion alike, your sleep is extra -sacred.

If you’re going inward, if you’re on the verge of emotional clarity, or if you’re just plain overwhelmed, give yourself space. Real space. Physical. Energetic. No shared fields overnight. Try a week of sleeping solo. Let the body detox the day without extra interference. You may notice:

  • Your dreams get clearer (or more bizarre at first).

  • You wake up less foggy.

  • You feel more you in the morning.

Sleep is not just rest—it’s spiritual integration. Let it be clean.
