July 2011 has begun with an eclipse. What a way to go! We are now officially at the end of the current eclipse season. Has anything changed in your life? Have you had your world rocked, or gently swayed in a positive direction?
Eclipses are celestial change agents. They take you down a path that you should be on – sometimes consciously and other times unconsciously. This is an affirmation, “Wherever you are right now – that is where you are meant to be!”
July is predominately a Sun in Cancer month. Of course Leo sun phase will pop its regal head in toward the end of the month. For now though the focus in on our fourth house of home and family. This can be a nurturing month as well as a month to be kind to yourself and others. Remember we are all part of the global family so, be kind to each other and love one another – this positive vibe will make us all feel pretty special.
July 1 we have a New Moon eclipse at 6:53pm, 10 degrees Cancer. Old issues, old patterns and old love dreams resurface under this eclipse, but memories serve as reminders of how much you’ve grown. Cancer is a sign that loves the past and it’s totally appropriate to look back before you leap forward now. This New Moon eclipse – influenced by Uranus, Pluto and Saturn – brings the opportunity to make a big push forward into a while new reality.
Appropriate New Moon wishes (or statements of intention) would be in the areas of:
• Home/family
• Safety
• Growing
• Intimacy/caring skills
• Feelings/moods
• Nurturing
• Releasing insecurity
The Full Moon in Capricorn is July 15 at 4:39pm. A Mars/South Node link puts actions and choices in focus. If you’re regretting missed opportunities, this Full Moon brings second chances. If you’re happy with recently made choices, congratulate yourself for consciously expressing your desires. Under this Full Moon it’s appropriate to review relationship and workplace roles to ensure you’re comfortable with the responsibilities to who you’re bound.
And just to end the month on a grand note there is another New Moon. This time the New Moon falls in the sign of Leo at July 31 4:39pm AEST. Leo rules the fifth house of love and creativity (so a wonderful way to finish this month – don’t you think?). Dreams of excess drive attempts to fill the more, more, more cravings within as jolly Jupiter links to this luxury-loving Leo Moon. Set high standards in all areas of your life as both quality and excellence are highlighted. There is a distinct shipping/materialistic undertone to this New Moon, so when buying now, aim for quality, lasting pieces – it’ll help justify your splurge. Venus close to Leo New Moon makes love and relationship experience dramatic.
July is a number seven moth. Seven is associated with inner journeys. This vibration helps you to add to your skills through study or seeking answers to long-standing questions. It is a most important rest stop before the success vibration of the eight month.
The Queens of Swords in the next card on the journey of the tarot. When the Queen of Swords appears in a spread, it is time for the individual to meet that dimension of himself or herself which clings unswaying to an immovable faith in high ideals. These ideals may be noble and lofty, and help to improve consciousness and the quality of life. But they may also reject life, and be a defence against the fear of being human and therefore vulnerable to hurt. The individual needs to see where he or she might create problems, through demanding superhuman perfection of others or oneself. If the Queen of Swords enters one’s life as a strong idealistic and aloof woman, it may be seen as a catalyst through which one discovers this aspect of oneself.
Demeter is the Goddess for July 2011. Demeter reveals the light through the dark labyrinth of feelings and emotions. She encourages us to nurture wholeness by accepting, acknowledging and expressing your feelings. Feelings are what you feel. Emotions are your creation your feelings. Feelings left unexpressed build up and can create disease for they take up space inside and keep healthy energy from flowing.
Honour your feelings and emotions in the Cancerian Sun phase. This act of self-kindness can create a sensational passage to a deeper and more wholistic representation of you.
Our animal totem for July is, Owl. Owl is powerful medicine. Owl is insightful and wise. No one can deceive you about what they are doing, no matter how they try to disguise or hide it from you. You may be a little frightening to be around, since so many people have ulterior motives which you see right through.
This is the month to use your powers of keen, silent observation to intuit some life situation. Owl is brefriending us this month and aiding us to see the total truth. Owl can bring us messages in the night through dreams and meditation. Pay attention to the signals and omens,. The truth always brings further enlightenment.
I’ve decided that we should have two crystals for this month. The first crystal for July is, Chrysoprase. This stone heals the emotional dependence, co-dependence, to which we are prone (as humans). It supports independence without losing commitment.
The Leo stone to embrace this month is, Topaz. Vigour and vitality are known qualities of Leo people. Sunny Topaz, with its ability to overcome limitations will help us to gain the recognition we crave. Use it to develop creative potential. Its vibrant energy stimulates your own natural generosity and assist you to be the big-hearted person you can be. This stone helps you to recognise your inner riches as well as drawing the support you need.
July will be wild and wonderful. Eclipses can create an unpredictable month. They are the motivators that we need to move from our comfort zone into a place where we can grow and learn.
Have an incredible month – don’t settle for less!
Love, Peace and Harmony,
Harles
