Hello July!
Who's ready for a change of energy that will usher in forwarding movement? July brings a shift from what we've been experiencing, which is that of releasing and letting go of old patterns. This can show up in multiple forms of how it's been playing out in each individual life. Maybe there's been a change in your friend group, relationship status, career, or health. These could be perceived as positive or negative changes based on each unique situation, and each one comes with a release or end of something and the beginning of something else.
This brings us to the theme of the month: Take Action.
Before we continue, take a moment to pause and reflect on your initial thoughts and feelings when you hear these words: Take Action.
Do you feel a surge of energy and know what action you need to take? Or did you experience a dreaded feeling because there is confusion?
Whatever your initial reaction is, trust it and get curious about it. Begin to ask questions about what you need to be ready to take the action you feel called towards. Does your definition of taking action need to shift? Maybe you've linked taking action as a form of a forced change and, if so, question whether that needs to be true for you anymore.
Taking action can show up in many ways. If you've been working nonstop, this could mean giving yourself permission to pause and rest. It's still taking steps on something that you aren't used to doing, but it may not align with what you feel you 'should' be taking action on.
The energy this month could be the boost you need to not stall anymore on the decisions you've been meaning to make but have halted for various reasons. Sometimes we need a little nudge to get us past our comfort zones, which is where our integrated growth happens.
When you take action on something that feels scary to you but aligns with a value or priority of yours, then you are signaling to the Universe that you genuinely believe that you are capable of receiving.
July will be a time of being comfortable with the uncomfortable as you bust through your fears into the unknown. The unknown is where you meet a new version of yourself. And aren't all parts of yourself worth meeting?
As you reflect on the actions you want/need to take, is there anything you need to feel supported in doing that?
July will be the month to draw on the courage and confidence within you to new levels. Let your inner strength bubble up within you. See it infusing into your cells and radiating your worthiness. Think about the times you have been brave with your decisions and didn't know the outcome - how did those times turn out? What lessons did you learn? How did you grow into the version of who you are now? Are you ready and willing to take another leap of faith if it means you will be in integrity with what you think, say, and do?
Only you can answer that. There's no wrong answer either. You are always moving forward on your path. Some detours happen to build up our resilience until we are ready to take aligned action. Just know that you have some extra wind behind your back to support you in moving forward if you need it this month.
And to help you call on that confidence and courage, our stone of the month is: Carnelian.
