As June draws to a close the energy feels pensive, like wanting to be alone in forest, or walking along a deserted beach. There is an inner dialogue that normally is reserved for meditations or ceremony that now seems demanding of our conscious attention in every waking moment.
The early part of June felt soft and smooth in comparison to earlier months. We had a time to catch our breath and relax a little. Things began to intensify with the Solstice and continued to build with the New Moon in late June. There were days when creative energy was busting out everywhere and other days when it seemed difficult to navigate our normal routines.
I like the analogy of waves. At first glance watching waves come to shore – they all seem the same. The sea is either calm or choppy. When we sit and gaze upon the sea, the waves take on a true individual character. Some are small, some barely break the surface and some seem to come out of nowhere and crash to shore. There is definite rhythm and balance to each one, all connected and aware of their bigger picture – the sea.
This is how I interpret the energy of July. Waves of energy, information, light and opportunity will be coming at us in endless combinations just like all the months prior. However, we are now “modeling our ascended self” and that means things will very possibly look the same but feel quite different. How so?
During the Solstice the Hexagonal Lattice was received and downloaded. Many wrote and shared with me their personal experiences with this geometric symbol and how it was manifesting in their lives. The dynamics of this energy lattice will begin to deeply integrate during the month of July as it’s creates new “communication corridors” with our ascended selves and will enable smoother communication between the two.
We will feel lighter and more multi-dimensional with periods of heightened inner awareness; conversely there will also be times where we feel disconnected and a little adrift. The sense of disconnection comes from the deepest layers of our unconscious emotional programs coming to the surface. So many of us have unconscious programs running of unworthiness, self-sabotage, self-criticism, and lack. There is an incredible film available for viewing on-line or DVD called “The Secret”. It is very powerful and speaks about the Law of Attraction and how our conscious and more importantly our unconscious thoughts continually create our reality. You will know how deeply you have these programs running but the level of ease and flow in your daily life and actions.
The energy of July will focus deeply on helping us release and heal those programs. It will shine a laser beam of light too reveal even more of our authentic self. Cutting through the muck to reveal our truest being is often fraught with angst and fear. The communication corridors now available will help greatly in this process – however we must be have the purest intention and desire to distill the ego, and be kind, gentle and allowing with ourselves.
As we become more comfortable with this communication style and level of information, the emotional charge of the 3D world of polarity will become less and we will feel able to choose what area’s we want to engage in, instead of feeling overwhelmed by the news headlines and the drama that feeds them. There is no question there is a lot occurring on the planet just now. There are intense storms, floods, fires, drought, war, invasions, global warming, it is easy to be reactionary and feel hopeless. It is challenging no question, however if we choose to engage our energy in ways that can be supportive to the planet, then the drama lessens its intensity and we as a collective, articulate our energy in a cohesive way despite the chaos around us.
Again back to the waves – if we are swimming against the waves they seem bigger and more powerful than they really are – all our flailing does little good. However, if we learn to swim just beneath them – with our whole body submerged and coming up only for a quick breath and to see where we are going – suddenly those surface waves just feel like ripples – our body relaxes into the water in such a way that it is supported - you are aware of what is happening around you – other swimmers, boats but your reality is of a different vibration and you then radiate that higher frequency with every thought and action taken.
July will continue to build and intensify. There are some very interesting astrological events that will amplify the energy and offer wonderful opportunities for illumination. July 4 – 28th – the Planet Mercury is Retrograde. Mercury rule communication on all levels. The retrograde of this planet often interrupts communication pathways and things can become tricky. It can create confusion and mis understandings. It also gives us a powerful opportunity for self review and examination, however we must remain open and non-reactive (surf beneath the waves) to receive the truest benefit. July 6th – Opening of Sirian Star gate. Cayelin K. Castell of Shamanic Astrology shares a very interesting view of this powerful stars energy.
“July marks the annual conjunction of the Sun with the fixed star Sirius which was purposely timed with the signing of the United States of America Declaration of Independence. Since 1776 the timing for the exact conjunction has shifted from July 4 to July 6.
Sirius is our brightest fixed star in the sky and was extremely important to the ancient Egyptians. Partly because it was the heliacal rise of Sirius that determined when the Nile River would begin her annual flooding. G.R.S. Mead author of Thrice Greatest Hermes says "In the astronomical science of the Egyptians, the most conspicuous solar system near our own, represented in the heavens by the brilliant Sirius, was of supreme interest. Cycles of immense importance were determined by it, and it entered into the highest mysticism of Egyptian initiation."
The Sirius influence is heightened this month and next. We begin with Egyptian wisdom as described in the "Maxims of Ptahotep" urging us to.” ‘Follow the Heart for as long as you live’, for it is this organ that retains the greatest sensitivity to the harmonizing, archetypal forces of Sirius, it becomes our "listening place", for the Sirian/Isian message of Eternal Love, Knowledge, and Understanding. http://www.siriusrising.com/myth.htm
The Sun acts as a doorway illuminating the multi-dimensional Sirian Star-gate. These next few weeks then are amping up our direct experience of the Sirian energies especially when we are setting our intention and attention on this powerful star-gate.” Shamanic Astology Celesital Timings
July 10th 7:03 pm EDT – Full Moon. This full moon energy will feel mysterious and somewhat unpredictable. It will be important to be very calm and centered in our intention and what we chose to align our energies with.
July 24th 8:32 pm EDT – New Moon. Plant our purest intentions within the womb of this all encompassing energy. No pretending, accept that our pockets are deep with the energy of magic.
Let’s talk briefly about our physical symptoms. Fatigue, body pain, digestion upsets, rising inner heat, headaches, neck/back pain, cravings, hunger, sleep interruption, vivid dreams, water retention, brain fog, memory loss, depression, sore eyes, constipation/diarrhea, skin rashes, and nausea. Many of these symptoms are our body coping with the Earth’s dynamic energy shifts and also our own frequency amplification. There is no one way to eliminate all of these symptoms; however we can soften them to an extent by supporting our body with some simple and basic offerings.
Drinking good living water, fresh green organic juices especially celery, cucumber & parsley. Eating fresh organic greens, salads, fruits, soaked seeds, nuts, superfoods and lots of liquid ionic minerals. Spending time outdoors, meditation, sauna’s, massage, yoga, walking, all help the body to balance our inner-terrain and allow food and energy to flow easier.
As we surf beneath the waves of July, we will feel the vibrant pulse of our beloved Mother’s energy surging and cleansing as she prepares for the months ahead. Our greatest asset is keeping our thoughts in the “now” and making every day, no matter how it plays out – “the best day ever”.
Feeling a deep, pure gratitude for everything in our life exactly as it is “now” will open an endless opportunity to manifest magic from our beloved abundant universe.
From a place of deep gratitude, I thank each of you for supporting me and my work and I wish everyone joyous surf over the weeks to come. Please hold our beloved Mother in your heart, walk upon her with reverence, and visualize her inner and outer terrain being balanced and in harmony. Send energy to her as you are guided for your particular area and intention.
Love and Deep Blessings,
Shala
