For people new to the community, you can join my eList HERE to be kept in the loop. I usually send out the JULY Monthly Missive during the first week of the month, but if/when things come up in-between, you may get the occasional additional email to alert you to events or classes that are time-sensitive.

7/12 • Mercury Rx (ideas & thoughts) ~conjunct~ Sun (energy & focus):
This compelling energy urges you to express yourself across multiple layers of existence. Communication stands at the forefront, yet it is crucial that it flows both ways, as a genuine exchange of ideas. As you step into this fresh cycle of self-expression, you will be able to harness potent energy, that is likely to leave a lasting impact or create a meaningful difference in the lives of others, should the need arise. It is an opportune moment for travel, whether physical or within the realms of your mind through visualization, or even exploring new facets in your immediate surroundings. Exploring uncharted paths can reveal unforeseen discoveries. This energetic influx brings forth a torrent of information so staying alert is paramount. For those grounded & organized, this phase may yield well-deserved recognition from others, which is a testament to the individual efforts that you have poured into your endeavors. Embrace this influx of energy, allow it to guide you toward new experiences & insights, while remaining open to the flow of communication & exchange that aligns with your authentic self-expression.

7/13 • Venus (finances & relationships) ~square~ Uranus (change & liberation):
This represents an unforeseen test of growth, with Venus governing your values & priorities and an interaction with Uranus, symbolizing sudden & seemingly unexpected occurrences, asking that we pay close attention to our relationships & resources because things are changing. Although it may feel spontaneous, it is actually an invitation to explore something “different” within your love life, finances or relationships. Embracing a conscious effort to approach things in a completely new way holds the promise of valuable lessons & unexpected blessings. As revelations spark within you, the initial reactions or responses will likely emerge from those closest to you. If your relationships, whether personal or professional, have reached a juncture demanding change or closure, now is an opportune time to openly discuss these matters with detachment & objectivity. This energy might provoke a craving for excitement or a desire to shake things up in your relationships. However, it is also crucial to remain aware & considerate of others’ emotions, as they might not be receptive to the awakening or abrupt changes being activated within you. Alternatively, this energy can facilitate candid discussions, fostering agreements or compromises. Ultimately, this period tests your adaptability within relationships. The more rigid or attached you are to the status quo, the more disruptive this energy might seem. Flexibility becomes paramount in navigating & harmonizing amidst these potentially transformative moments.

7/14 • CANCER Super/New Moon:
This is a powerful opportunity to start anew in your Cancer Area of Life (House). We are getting a dose of New Beginning Energy that is so needed & necessary right now, considering the large-scale “endings” that we are also dealing with. This month gets personal, thanks to the watery, changeable Cancer-vibe, Mercury Retrograde in Cancer and the Super New Moon combine to help us all seed new ways of processing emotions, nourishing the Self & developing new self-care routines. It is time to initiate something that you are willing to be responsible for nurturing to its full development & releasing to the Universe. Something born from YOU! Cancer is the BEST time to practice deep healing of Ancestral patterns and integrating their strengths & wisdom so that you are a more reliable vehicle for bringing your creations to life! Where is the *Fertile Ground* in your life, environment or world, at this time? What personal tending is ‘up’ for you at this time? What basic fundamentals do you need in order to feel loved, supported, well-fed & cared for? Cancer/Capricorn both activate our lessons around the “basics” in life, emotional & physical security, food & shelter etc. It’s about feeling what needs to be done and then doing it, but not giving in to emotional overwhelm, simply improve your personal boundaries. Then, as you develop a whole new way of containing, nurturing & protecting your own life-force energy, you will naturally encourage others to honor their own individual feelings & personal Nature too. Remember, Cancer is how we feel on the inside, about the Capricorn Reality that we’re living on the outside so if there is a discrepancy, the Cancer New Moon is the time to go within & seed a new vision.

7/15 • Uranus (change & liberation) ~sextile~ Neptune (spirituality & boundaries):
(3 of 5: 8.28.2025 :: 11.20.2025 :: 7.15.2026 :: 1.15.2027 :: 6.6.2027)
Uranus & Neptune are initiating a sacred dance of freedom & faith over this rare & potent 3-year window. It is an activation that only comes around once in a great while and it carries the seeds of our individual & collective evolution. Uranus, the Great Awakener & Liberator, is now forming a harmonious sextile with Neptune, the Mystical Dream Weaver. When these two outer planets unite in this way, the door swings open between the realms of higher consciousness & spiritual imagination, allowing us to receive radical insights that feed a whole new way of dreaming our world into being.

This is not a quick burst of inspiration, it is a gradual unfolding, a holy dialogue between the mind and the Spirit, between innovation & vision. Uranus in Gemini, traveling through the sign of mental perception & duality over the next 7-years, will continue to crack open old patterns of thought, communication & connection. It will electrify our nervous systems with downloads of clarity & disruption alike. But here’s the beauty: Neptune in Aries is activating our inner mystic, the courageous seeker who knows that intuition is not optional but essential. Together, they are preparing us for a profound turning point, an evolutionary threshold that will become even more powerful when Uranus moves into Cancer and squares Neptune in Aries a few years down the line.

Think of this as a sacred prelude: a spiritual quickening. Uranus is urging us to awaken to a new level of consciousness, while Neptune invites us to align with a new spiritual truth. This isn’t about returning to old religions or dogmas, it is about reclaiming our spiritual authority from within. You may feel called to explore esoteric practices, energy healing, mysticism, astrology or Ancestral wisdom in a more direct & embodied way. What matters now is your own felt-sense of connection to the Divine, not someone else’s interpretation.

As always, when Uranus is involved, our systems can feel overloaded or overstimulated. This is why grounding practices like daily movement, breathwork, being in Nature, journaling or silence are so important. Your nervous system is your bridge to the Higher Mind; it must be fortified, not fried. And when Neptune enters the picture, spiritual boundaries become just as vital. Without them, we absorb other people’s energies, collective fears & false ideals like a sponge. Use this time to strengthen your discernment, not to close yourself off, but to remain clear, strong & centered in your own Light.

This transit will perfect 5-times between now and 2028, giving us multiple opportunities to refine our vision and align it with our own personal liberation. What dream wants to be reborn through you? What beliefs no longer fit your expanded sense of Self? This cycle is here to help you dissolve illusions, release false identities & embody a new level of sovereignty in both your thinking and on your spiritual path.

We are standing on the edge of an era that will eventually shape the next 165-years. Let that sink in. The choices we make now, like how we express our unique voice, how we relate to truth & how we walk our talk, will ripple out for generations to come. But we are not being asked to have it all figured out. We are being asked to listen to the signs, synchronicities, dreams or the quiet nudges of the Soul and to respond with humility, courage & creativity.

This is a sacred window for deep inner alchemy, where your radical ideas & spiritual insights can fuse into something uniquely powerful. It is time to rewrite the story, not from the top-down, but from the inside-out. Practice seeing change as a sacred invitation rather than a threat. Lean into your spiritual practices like a lifeline. Trust & validate your own inner knowing. Allow the Great Mystery to co-create with you a new dream, one that is rooted in freedom, truth & sacred belonging.

7/17 • Uranus (change & liberation) ~trine~ Pluto (soul level & primal power):
(1 of 5: 7.17.2026 :: 11.29.2026 :: 6.15.2027 :: 1.13.2028 :: 5.9.2028)
This transit is about liberating the Soul, reclaiming your power & conscious evolution that we will navigate over the next 2-years. Uranus & Pluto are the great Change Agents of our solar system and when they come together in a harmonious trine, they create a rare opportunity for profound transformation that can unfold with more ease, grace & cooperation than is usually associated with major life changes. Uranus awakens, liberates & reveals what has been hidden, while Pluto purifies, transforms & facilitates permanent change at the deepest levels of consciousness. Together, they are helping us see ourselves more clearly than ever before. Over the next 2-years, you may become increasingly aware of the larger patterns shaping your life, personal choices & current evolution. What once seemed confusing may suddenly make perfect sense as your awareness expands and your Soul reveals a more complete picture of who you are becoming.

This energy supports a deep internal shift that begins from within and gradually reshapes your outer reality. I often say, “If you can see it, you can own it. If you can own it, you can change it.” Uranus illuminates the blind spots, unconscious habits & outdated identities that have limited your growth, while Pluto provides the courage, power & determination to transform them at the root. The beauty of this activation is that it encourages your conscious participation. When you willingly embrace change, it does not have to arrive through disruption, crisis or external pressure. The more honest you are with your Self about what is ready to evolve, the smoother this process becomes.

This activation also opens the door to deeper spiritual work, sacred ritual, ceremony & alternative approaches to healing, manifestation & conscious co-creation. Many people will feel drawn to explore practices that strengthen their connection to Spirit, Nature, Ancestors or their own Inner Knowing. You may find your Self seeking greater meaning in your experiences, asking bigger questions & exploring life beyond the surface level. This is Soul Work. It is not about fixing your Self, it is about uncovering the deeper truth of who you have always been beneath the conditioning, expectations & inherited stories.

To maximize the potential of this energy over the next 2-years, make time for regular self-reflection & intentional release work. Pay attention to recurring themes, patterns & revelations that arise, as they are likely pointing toward the next stage of your evolution. Keep a journal, work with trusted mentors, engage in spiritual practices & stay open to changing your mind about who you are & what is possible. Be willing to update your identity as your consciousness expands. Most importantly, communicate your growth to those closest to you, as they may not immediately recognize the person you are becoming. This is a rare opportunity to consciously align your personal freedom with your Soul’s deeper purpose. The changes may be gradual, but they have the potential to be lasting, liberating & truly life-changing.
