🌀 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
Emotional shedding, alone time, unhooking from people-pleasing, creative realignment
Best Kriya: “Kriya to Relax and Release Fear"
Best Meditation: “Kirtan Kriya” or “Kriya for Calm Heart”
♌ 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.”
Kriya: “Kriya for the Lower Triangle”
Meditation: “Become Intuitive”
Practices: Gentle structure, nature walks, early bedtime, digital detox
🦁 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.
Kriya: “Kriya for Balancing Head and Heart”
Meditation: “Meditation for the Arcline to Develop Intuition and Projection”
Self-care: Stay hydrated, speak slower, allow mistakes, honor emotions
✈️ 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.

🜃 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
The Economy:
Increased uncertainty, market overreaction, bureaucratic breakdowns
Advice: Spend less, save more, simplify finances, get wills & trusts in order
Geopolitical Tension:
Verbal misfires, failed tech, cyber incidents, unstable leadership
More risk of fog-of-war confusion than direct escalation
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.
