July 2025 Insights
"Full awareness feels somewhat like a combination of knowing and not knowing. It’s knowing nothing in everything and everything in nothing. Remember that we all dwell in the delicate balance between visible and invisible forces." ~ Message from the Ethers
As we enter July, we find ourselves moving through a time of reinforcement and deepening. With Sacred Masculine energies returning to health and Shamanic wisdom guiding relationships for the second time this year—and again in August—the patterns emerging are undeniable. These recurring energies invite you to fully embody what has been working for you in the first half of the year and to integrate the wisdom being offered. July, positioned just past the halfway mark of the year, asks you to honor what has come before and prepare for what lies ahead, while trusting in the Journey that unfolds in your prosperity. The Sun and Elementals continue to illuminate our path, reminding us of the light and magic all around us.
HEALTH: SACRED MASCULINE
The Sacred Masculine returns to guide your health this month, reinforcing the themes of sovereignty, safety, and protection that first appeared in May. This is a powerful reminder to stay committed to the boundaries and structures you have set for your well-being. Are you standing tall in your sovereignty when it comes to your health? The Sacred Masculine calls for action, movement, and a renewed awareness of how you take care of yourself. Pay attention to the tribe you’ve built around your health—whether that’s friends, family, or health practitioners—and make sure you are supported. As in May, avoid the inhibitors of blame, shame, or rigidity, and instead, lean into the strength and protection that Sacred Masculine energy provides. This is a time to fortify what you’ve already built, but also to ask yourself: How are my boundaries holding up? If you’ve let any slip, now is the time to reinforce them.
Affirmation: I stand tall in my sovereignty.
Inquiry: How are my boundaries?
RELATIONSHIPS: SHAMAN
Shamanic energy returns to your relationships this month, a rare and potent theme that also appeared in March and will come back again in August. With Shaman as your guide, you are being asked to navigate the thresholds of your heart, which is especially important in a year of crossroads like 2025. The Shaman brings deep wisdom, guiding you through the unseen realms of your relationships. Mentors, elders, and plant medicine may serve as powerful allies during this time. This is not a month for surface-level connections; instead, it is a time to explore the sacred, transformative nature of love. You may be called to release old patterns, engage in prayer or ritual, or seek deeper meaning in your relationships. Fear, doubt, and ego will try to stand in your way, but the Shaman asks you to trust the process. What signs are asking to be seen in your relationships? Listen deeply and trust the magic that comes from the unknown.
Affirmation: I see.
Inquiry: What are the signs asking to be seen?
PROSPERITY: JOURNEY
The Journey card in prosperity encourages you to trust in the unfolding of your financial path. Magic lies in your ability to see and claim your truth, even when the road ahead is uncertain. The Journey card reminds you that prosperity is not just about reaching a destination but about the process of getting there. What resources are available to you? How can you lean into your strength and resilience to navigate the financial challenges or opportunities that come your way? Entitlement, escape, or control will only inhibit your progress. Instead, allow yourself to be present on the journey, knowing that each step brings you closer to your goals.
Affirmation: I am here now.
Inquiry: How can I allow the journey to unfold?
SUMMARY:
July brings powerful energies of reinforcement and trust as the Sacred Masculine and Shaman reappear, asking you to build on the foundations set earlier this year. In health, continue to stand tall in your sovereignty, ensuring your boundaries are strong and your actions are aligned with your highest good. In relationships, the Shaman invites you to navigate the deep thresholds of the heart, guiding you through transformation and sacred connection. And in prosperity, the Journey reminds you that the process of achieving abundance is just as important as the destination—trust the unfolding of your financial path and remain open to the magic of the journey.
As the Sun and Elementals continue to guide our way, July is a month to deepen your commitment to the path you are on, to trust the process, and to remain open to the signs and wisdom that surround you. With Sacred Masculine strength, Shamanic insight, and the magic of the Journey, you are well-equipped to navigate the second half of the year with confidence and grace. Journey well. - Lindsay Pera
