This month Venus is transiting overtime behind the scenes to get us to approach life in a much more down to earth, pragmatic and service oriented way. Moving away from the pitfalls of our past experiences, into a hopeful new chapter. We each have masculine and feminine energies within. Our feminine qualities of creating, feeling, being, receiving are often steamrolled by our internalized toxic masculinity which seeks to gratify itself rather than serve. Divine masculine energy is of service to our emotions and creativity. It wants to be helpful, and provide the very necessary caregiving inwardly that the divine feminine needs. This month is a special time when we are called to focus on regulating these energies within. We are invited to create real self-worth from a place of balance and respect for oneself over outer approval.

July is all about leading with love. In the first half of the month, Cancer season asks us to be a good mother to ourselves and to truly take up the art of caring for one another. The second half, Leo season, asks us to be committed to our inner child's joy and happiness by expressing our affection, creativity and authentic selves. There is room for all of us to have our needs met in love, and each of us has a unique creative gift to offer the world. With all of the pain and suffering we see being outpoured in the world, being a warrior of love is an act of radical rebellion, and ultimately a necessary antidote to the poison of the times.

This is the time to initiate gathering new knowledge, we will all benefit from actively being a student. Come July 2025 when Uranus also enters Gemini, we will have absolutely no choice but to live by our curiosity and a period of intellectual and future oriented growth is predicted for our collective.

There is a huge need to stop and smell the proverbial roses over the next few weeks. For some, Taurus season can trigger a time of overindulgence and escapism through instant gratifications. For those more inclined to conscious choice this is a time to truly absorb the peace of nature through our dedication to the simple and appreciation of the sensory modes of life - sight, smell, touch, taste and hearing.
