Message for July 2025

As the chaotic, rambunctious and boisterousness continues all around, July looks set to be a month for some honest self-reflection and introspection, as we each seek out a new way of living and being that cultivates balance, harmony and compassion.

It’s easy to get stuck in a rut and repeating cycle of ‘get up, shower, breakfast, work, food, Facebook, TV, bed, sleep (if you’re lucky), get up…’ but this cycle can become the shape and form of life. When we get stuck in a rut, it’s easy to miss the bigger picture as we get lost in the pedestrian mundaneness of it all. Of course, we all need some kind of routine, but when life itself becomes routine, it seems important to ask ourselves if we are living our best lives. Very often, there is no choice but to focus on keeping on keeping on as it pays the bills, but it lacks a certain something and can lead to a deep lack of unfulfillment.

Unless we find moments to pause and reflect, as well as opportunities to explore our gifts and dreams, we can feel stuck in a cycle we can’t get out of, and the inertia and immovability squashes our hopes, and chisels away at our self-belief. Of course, perception matters, and when we feel overwhelmed, it can become a self-fulfilling prophecy, but it’s far more complex than that as there are millions of different facets to life, and each one has a role to play. Whilst it’s important to realize that how we think can shape our experiences, it’s also wise to realize that thinking positively isn’t single-handedly the path to joy.

Living Beyond the Treadmill of Routine

In reality, life is a meandering and unpredictable path, sometimes the way ahead is clear, but there are many times when we need to take a detour, or just decide to ramble into unknown terrain. When we become stuck on the treadmill of life, we can lose sight of the creativity and potential that resides within and this can leave us feeling overwhelmed, just wanting to hibernate and hide away.

Yet, with a new dawn emerging, there is a need for each of us to look beyond the four walls of our lives and to realize the need to start living in more life-affirming ways. The more we choose to embrace a full life, the more connected we become to other like-minded souls, and like a pebble in the pond, one ripple creates more ripples and reaches out wider and wider. Life isn’t just about what we do, don’t do, achieve or become, it’s about how we live and how we feel. Quality over quantity, and all that.

As different threads of our lives crash together like waves onto jagged rocks, it’s important to notice the lighthouse that majestically stands above, as we each have this light within that has the power to illuminate the path for ourselves and one another. Perhaps more importantly though, is the need to trust our own intuition as the path that’s right for one is not necessarily the right path for others. Freewill should never be underestimated, nor should unity or compassion for others (even those we don’t agree with or understand). Sometimes the only way to ‘fight’ hate is to love. This sounds a little twee, but when we let the lighthouse within shine brightly, and have the courage to be ourselves, others shine their lights, and together the world is illuminated in a different way.

Letting Go and Living Wholeheartedly

There can be no denying that there are many dark corners in life, and there is a great deal of fear and anger, but there is also love and compassion, and the more we open up our hearts and souls to love, the more freely it flows. Although it’s hard sometimes to want to be fully present in life given the upheaval and challenges all around, it is important to step consciously into the moment as that’s how we live wholeheartedly. Yes, life isn’t always sunshine and roses, sometimes its angst ridden and painful, but being wholehearted enriches the soul and brings us closer to our essence.

It can feel overwhelming as we spin through space and time, trying to put one foot in front of the other, but feeling as though our feet are pulling in different directions at the same time. Yet, when we let go of the internal struggle and seek out peace, the pushing and pulling subsides as we intuitively know where to step and when. It’s a bit like learning a new dance of life that flows freely with the universe. Each of us have our own music and our own dance, but together they create a beautiful and majestic masterpiece that we call life. Yet, we each need to be willing to dance and to let the music play, as we explore our goals and find ways to live our best lives.

As life continues to converge and diverge in a bewildering array of moments, the more we centre ourselves and breathe, the more we can see that this is a natural process in life. Sometimes these moments converge and diverge with such force that they can knock us off our feet or burst into something new, but the key comes in allowing the process to take place. We aren’t spectators in life, we are all participants, and the more willing we become to live life as wholeheartedly and as consciously as possible, the more able we are to breathe freely and to cultivate our gifts to flow with vibrancy and colour.

We have all faced challenges. We have all faced pain. We have all spent a great deal of time navigating the challenges and storms of life, but we have all gained wisdom, strength and courage in the process. Although the skies might be stormy and grey, the light within each of us is shining brightly now. Despite the effervescent, excitable, and sometimes challenging energies popping up into all areas of our lives, there is also a sense of release and letting go at the same time. It’s as though we are subconsciously allowing ourselves to let go of everything that no longer serves us in order to open up our hearts and souls towards the new. Even though we may not, as yet, know what the new is, intuitively it feels right to let it in, as we can sense the eager anticipation deep within our hearts and souls.

We are slowly shifting towards compassion and a willingness to focus on unity and love. We certainly have far more in common than we often notice, even though so many find it easier to see the forces that segregate, isolate and divide. Whilst this is a part of human nature, the more of us that are willing to unite through love, the more we can shift towards a warmer, more compassionate way of living and being.

As always, I wish you all kinds of wonderful.

With love,

Sarah-Jane

Aries ♈

As you continue to find ways to cultivate a deeper and more enriching sense of self-belief, it seems you are beginning to re-shape and re-define your life from the inside, out. You have spent a great deal of time trying to be the person you’ve felt you’ve needed to be, or ought to be, and this has frequently been at your own expense as you have pushed your own hopes and dreams aside in the process. At the same time, you have also stepped back a little from feeling more deeply connected to your heart and soul as it’s been easier to give so much to others when you are not thinking about your own needs or dreams. Of course, intuitively you know that your tendency to over-give to others isn’t sustainable in the long term, but it seems important to understand the reasons why you do what you do: what drives your self-sacrificing tendencies?

Although there are likely multiple reasons, close to the top is a lack of belief, a misplaced sense that your needs matter less, or that standing in your own truth isn’t a good thing to do. Yet, your heart and soul are both yearning for some breathing space, and longing for you to re-connect to your true priorities, as your dreams are ready and waiting to fly free. It’s time to think about what you truly want, and what brings you joy. Reflect on the life you are living, and have the courage to look beyond the four walls of your everyday life as you open up to living as wholeheartedly as possible. It’s time to honour yourself, to listen to your own needs and to let your inner light shine brightly. You are a passionate and creative soul, so use these gifts to find new ways to flourish and thrive. It’s time to live more consciously and to re-connect to the joy within your heart and soul…

Taurus ♉

July looks set to be something of a revelatory month for you as you continue to explore the things that light up your soul. You have finally realized just how much pressure you put on yourself to do more, be more and achieve more; your almost constant quest to ‘be better’ is admirable as it shows an eagerness to grow and evolve, but it also highlights an underlying sense that you don’t ever quite feel ‘enough’ as you are. There is a fine line between ambition and what drives it, and it seems time for you to contemplate your own motivations in order to understand why you do what you do. With such a strong focus on doing more, being more and striving to achieve more, this can exacerbate a sense of a gap between where you are, and where you feel you need to be. This gap can grow in shape and form, wielding great power when it comes to your self-beliefs and goals, and over time this can leave you feeling ‘less than’.

Although your intuition and creativity are phenomenal, you often nudge these away in order to focus on keeping on keeping on, as you work towards doing more. Yet, is doing more the true source of potential happiness? If you always feel as though there is more for you to do, be and achieve, how can you find strength, grace and beauty in the present moment? This isn’t about giving up on dreams, it’s more of a gentle reminder to seek out peace and joy in the here and now, realizing that the gap isn’t something to fix, it’s an inevitable part of being human, as there will always be a gap between here and there, as that’s just the way it is. It’s time to ask yourself if you are happy to continue climbing mountains, or if you are ready to turn within and let your soul gently take you by the hand…

Gemini♊

As the spirals of life continue to weave in, out, and through your life in all directions, it seems clear that you are still feeling stuck on ‘fast forward’. It’s beautifully chaotic and rambunctiously delicious, and even though there are times when you’re not sure if you’re coming, going or lost somewhere in between, you can sense that creativity and inspiration are bursting out from the seams of your being, seeking new terrain to discover and contemplate. You are on the edge of a new direction in life, one where you go with the flow of your wonderful weaving mind, and realize that it’s a powerful gift to have as it’s your source of power and it’s the stepping stone to get from where you are to where you want to be. It seems important to be clear about where you want to be as you often juggle lots of possibilities around your consciousness. Unless you know what you want, how can you achieve it? Yet, getting to ‘where you what to be’ isn’t really about achieving goals or getting things done, it’s a state of being, so ‘who you want to be’ would perhaps be a better focus, along with ‘how do you want to feel’? Step beyond your mind and let your intuition guide you into the deeper realms of your being, as this is where the inspiration resides. How do you want to feel? Sit with this. Pause, breathe deeply and you will know…

Sometimes the harder you look, the less you see. However, this isn’t the end of the matter, as surely the more you feel, the more you…feel? Well, it might sound obvious but feeling brings you into the present moment and it awakens your senses and brings them alive. As you continue to explore your inner space and look deeply within your heart and soul, you’re finally beginning to realize that you are truly a sensitive and compassionate being…

Cancer♋

July looks set to be a month that sees you shift perspective when it comes to your true priorities in life. You have spent so long keeping on keeping on, walking the treadmill of life, that you have lost sight of the magic and sparkle that resides within your heart and soul. Your ability to ‘get things done’ often comes at your own expense as you give so much of yourself to others; although you have been spending more time acknowledging your own needs, you seem ready now to look beyond the treadmill in order to feel your inner spirit dance once again. It’s hard to describe the intensity of this desire to dance, but it’s currently tethered and being held by an elastic band; you give it a bit of leeway to explore, but then it comes pinging back to ‘keep on keeping on’. When you spend time contemplating your hopes and dreams, you can feel the tingles and rumblings within, but it can be hard for you to set them free as they try to push beyond the boundaries of your everyday life. Although you frequently dream of living your life beyond the boundaries of your current world, there is a sense of sticking with what you know, rather than taking a chance on the unknown.

Of course, everything in life is unknown, there is no certainty, but there are some paths in life that feel a bit more robust than others. It’s understandable to want to stick with what feels like the best option, but sometimes your intuition needs a little more wriggle room to flourish and thrive. There is no right or wrong path to follow, just a sense that you now seem ready to step off the treadmill and towards pastures new. Your life doesn’t have to be shaped by ought’s, must’s and shield’s, but it can be defined and re-defined by your own beliefs, creativity, gifts and ideals. Believe in yourself and let your intuition guide you…

Leo♌

As you continue to find new ways to live as wholeheartedly as possible, you are looking at your life, your choices, and your gifts with fresh perspective. You have been entrenched in busy-ness for quite some time, with so many things to do, people to see, and places to go, that you have become caught up in a whirlwind ‘to do’ list, and have lost sight of your inner glow as a result. However, now you are more focused on walking the path of wholehearted living, you have felt your twinkly, sparkly and glowing essence starting to surface from the core of your being. It’s as though you are experiencing a kind of re-birth that is not only encouraging you to weigh up your path in life, but it’s also tickling your soul, and the glow is beginning to find its way to the surface. It might not be obvious in many aspects of your daily life, but when you pause and take a breath, you can feel it’s warmth and see it glowing gently. Although you have always been aware of your glowing inner self, you have often pushed it aside in order to help others, and in order to let your head lead the way, but wholehearted living is inspiring you to look further towards the space where potential and dreams reside.

Your head has an important role to play, but it’s time to let your effervescence and majestic essence shine brightly once again as you realize that it’s not about head or heart, it’s about finding a union between your head and heart. You are a wise, creative and innovative soul, and you seem ready now to channel these gifts into an opportunity to re-shape and re-define your life. It seems the more willing you are to step into the present moment as wholeheartedly as possible, the more you will feel the free flow of your creativity and passion. This is exciting and tantalizing, enjoy…

Virgo♍

July looks set to be a month where you continue to look at the bigger picture of your life whilst, at the same time, watching the kaleidoscopic threads as they weave in and out in every direction of your existence. This is hard to explain, as it’s beyond the perspective and awareness of most people, as you see the world very differently to others. It’s as though you are moving through life in the same direction, and at the same pace of others, but your step is subtly different, allowing you to gain great insight and wisdom in the process. Few, if anyone, ever notice this different step other than similar web weavers (should you happen upon one). For most of the time, this difference in step has no impact on your life, but there are times when you find yourself needing more clarity, more understanding, or more guidance, and when you pause, breathe and connect to your inner self, this subtle ‘difference in step’ allows you to move back a little in order to see the truly universal bigger picture of life.

Such awareness can feel overwhelming and bewildering, but this has been a part of you throughout your whole life, so it just feels like your ‘normal’. Yet, this awareness shouldn’t be underplayed as it’s a powerful friend and ally, and it brings you the ability to connect with the threads as they weave through life, helping you to make more sense as to why things are the way they are. This isn’t a head/thinking thing, it’s a feeling thing, a being thing, and a ‘you think’. Take a little time this month to pause for a while to take some time to reflect on your true priorities, and to connect more wholeheartedly to the infinity of potential and possibility that resides within you. Turn towards your true priorities and let your intuition guide you, as you trust the flow of the threads as they intertwine and create a new chapter ahead…

Libra♎

Your life has been on something of a rollercoaster ride over recent weeks and months (years in some cases!), as you find that your essence and energy are frequently scattered across space and time, neither here nor there, and very often in many different places at once. You’re a complex soul, and few could ever really comprehend what it’s like living in your swirling, whirling mind, but it’s how you’re made. Yet, instead of embracing this, and learning how to make the most of your gifts, you often resist this side of your nature, preferring to follow a more logical and/or ‘normal’ way of living and being. Yet, do you? Do you really resist your beautifully chaotic, richly rambunctious awareness, as this is the power that brings you insight and wisdom, innovation and courage, motivation and momentum?

This is the energy that inspires you to explore your creativity and listen to your intuition, this is the power within you that inspires you to explore the nooks and crannies of life. Perhaps this all comes so naturally to you that you don’t really notice it, but it seems more likely that you resist it, as you’re just so busy with other things to do. Feeling scattered across space and time is perhaps your natural state of being, but instead of being scattered (which feels a bit dismissive and flippant), moving towards a more graceful way to flow with these energies seems wise. It seems that the rollercoaster ride is mostly of your own making as you resist the currents and try to forge your own path. Your heart and soul have your back; they are on your side! Take a deep breath and bring together the different facets of your being, as you find new ways of living and being that bring you energy, joy and adventure. Find peace and unity within, and you will feel it filtering into every single aspect of your existence…

Scorpio♏

July looks set to continue your inner revolution as you gain clarity, insight and wisdom when it comes to your true priorities. Knowing what you truly want in life can be challenging for you, as you often find it hard to know where you end, and where others begin, as your energies are so intermingled and entwined. You give so much of yourself to others, your edges are a little blurred and out of focus, and this can make it hard to step wholeheartedly into your own essence as you can’t be quite sure what’s yours and what’s not. Yet, this sounds far more complex than it actually is, as with a few moments of deep breathing and pause, you are able to re-balance and re-centre once again. The trouble is that as you so infrequently do this, you can feel as though you are lost in the lives of others. Of course, there is some truth in this as you do so much for those around you, and often bend and flex to accommodate their needs and wishes, but you are naturally fluid and flowing, so no-one really has the power to contain your essence, only you.

It therefore seems time to shift your perspective and find new ways to let your free spirit dance through life. Your inner revolution is a force to inspire and empower you to wholeheartedly acknowledge your true priorities and to give shape and form to your hopes and dreams. Nothing in life is certain, but it seems certain that nothing will happen unless you embrace the possibility, so dive into your depths, affirm your boundaries and embrace your true energy, as you are about to step into a new chapter that feels both life affirming and enriching on every level of your being. It’s time now to trust your intuition and to follow your own lead, this is your inner revolution and it’s an opportunity to re-shape and re-define your life…

Sagittarius♐

July looks set to be a month to begin the process of unravelling some of the more complex conundrums of your life as you sort the wheat from the chaff when it comes to which path to follow next. You have a plethora of pathways before you, each one tantalizing in its own right, but each one isn’t quite enough for you as you thrive on variety and on exploring unchartered terrain. Having a set path to follow in life may bring you some security or peace of mind, but your heart and soul long for adventure, pushing boundaries and self-discovery. Unravelling your complexities isn’t a process that will simplify your life, it will help you to make sense of your choices, and to understand why you do the things you do.

Of course, your depths are endless, and the infinity within your heart and soul makes self-discovery a challenge at times, but you are a free spirit, and the more you embrace your depths, the more you realize just how much potential you truly have. It’s time to let go of self-doubt, and to start believing in yourself. You don’t have to fully understand everything before you take the next step, as no one can ever fully understand everything, it’s just a part of being human. If you dive into that uncertainty, you will realize that it’s another gift, as it brings you the motivation and curiosity to explore the far edges of life in order to follow a path less travelled. After all, it’s your path and no one else has walked it (yet). Although there will always be bills to pay and responsibilities to carry, this shouldn’t hold you back from living your best life, as it’s a part of being human, and there is so much more to it than that. It takes courage to explore new terrain, but your heart and soul are yearning for more now. Take a deep breath and fly free…

Capricorn♑

Standing in your power and living your truth were the parting words from June, and these look set to continue throughout July as you sense the winds of change as they gather momentum in the nooks and crannies of your life. Although you intuitively know that when one door closes, another one opens, but change isn’t always as straightforward as this, as often there is no sense of a door opening or closing, or even a breeze dusting your skin from the open door to let you know what’s happening. Sometimes change is nebulous and unclear, without shape or form, but you still know it’s happening. This could be because change is happening so slowly that you’re barely noticing or, more likely, change is happening but it’s more energetic and spiritual, than physical. Obviously change happens constantly as nothing ever stays the same, but when change is subtle and slow, it can build up frustration. Take a breath. Instead of trying to work out what’s going on, or what may, or may not, happen, maybe it’s better to focus on where you are now and on discovering new ways to ‘live your truth’?

For a long time now, you have been waiting for a special moment where the planets align, everything falls into focus and uncertainty fades away, as answers to all of those unanswered questions appear. Intuitively you know this isn’t likely, but it doesn’t stop you wanting it! This is understandable, as you have some big life decisions to make, but it seems important to acknowledge the need to go with the flow of change, and to trust your intuition to navigate you through the ebb and flow of life. Waiting for the right moment might lead to a long wait, but you have the skills, gifts, energy, passion, vibrancy and intuition to seize the day and to live your best life now. Life is never straightforward, it is a kaleidoscope of shades, textures and ‘unknowable’s’, as well as the unending palette of colours and possibilities. Embrace it. Become it…

Aquarius♒

Life can often be a confusing and bewildering experience. There are times when you feel as though you are moving at a million miles an hour and other times when it feels as though geological time is moving faster than you. Yet, there are also times when you feel both at the same time! You have always been keen to make sense of life, and to seek out answers to the many unanswered questions that you have. Yet, you have also realized the freedom in going with the flow and letting your intuition take the helm. It’s therefore not surprising that life can be confusing at times, as the way you see the world would make most people dizzy. Other than you. You are used to the whizz, whirl and paradoxical conundrums, as you navigate your way through life. You have realized that it is perfectly possible to move at a million miles an hour, and at a mile in a millennium at the same time because you do it all the time.

You have realized how precious a gift this can be, as it brings you unique perspective as well as an ability to sense every ebb and flow in order to travel through life with wisdom and creativity. Yet, there are also times when you feel caught up in a moment, unable to sense where you are or why. You can feel overwhelmed and underwhelmed at the same time, as well as both excited and fearful, joyful and sad. It’s as though every pathway in your life has suddenly converged into this moment, and you can’t quite make sense of it or understand what’s happening. No one ever said that being you was easy! Yet, you are so creative, so wise and so intuitive, that despite challenges, you still find ways to flourish and thrive. Whatever speed you’re travelling, and whatever moment you might find yourself in, there is always an opportunity for growth. You truly are a wisdom being…

Pisces♓

As you continue to navigate the ebb and flow of the currents of life, there is a sense that you have been traversing some stormy seas over recent months. As a result, you have been feeling a bit nauseous and giddy from the swell of the waves, and you have had very little opportunity to rest or take a breath. Although you can usually ride the waves with wisdom, grace and confidence, there are times when you long for a period of stillness in order to reflect, contemplate and re-calibrate your essence. Sometimes it can feel as though life is out of control, and you feel like a piece of driftwood being carried by the currents, not sure where you’re heading or why. Yet, you intuitively know that you are a master of the currents and drifting isn’t your style! So, even when you’re unsure of your destination or navigating choppy waters, when you trust your intuition, it illuminates the path ahead like a lighthouse.

Self-belief seems to be at the core of this, as there is nothing you need to do to master the currents, it’s just a part of how you’re made. However, it goes deeper than self-belief, as you have all of the skills to navigate unchartered terrain, but you often resist using them and it seems important now to try to understand why. Of course, there are many times in life when it’s easier to drift along with the flow of other people’s lives, as it can make for a quieter life, but the risk with this is that you lose touch with your own gifts and dreams. July looks set to be a time to find a little bit of stillness in order to reset your equilibrium, as you find calmer waters. Instead of prioritizing the needs of others over your own, it’s time to give yourself the space and time you need to blossom and thrive…
