When you live from your intuitive core, your belly, your heart, when you let your soul lead and your spirit guide you, your words and actions will be naturally subversive. You will go to your edge. And there, you will not be alone. ~Melissa la Flamme
What we once thought was our truth has left the building. Who we once thought we were is no longer viable in this dimensional flux of change. This summer will definitely rattle our cages. July’s astrology—a potential Molotov cocktail of Mars, Uranus, Pluto, Eris, Haumea plus the karmic points—will shine a spotlight on the ever more apparent split timelines and bifurcation of realities, accelerating us into the Lion’s Gate and the August eclipses. Seen or experienced from 3D, it’s a recipe for personal insecurity, lack of control, tribalism, disruption, rage and volatility. Viewed from a 5D witness perspective, the lower reality will feel increasingly surreal, over, done, complete.
The Eclipse Pathway Is Already Open
On the heels of that explosive physical eclipse energy blast of June 8/9, the Eclipse Pathway opened in June at the Solstice and the stealth Super New Cancer Moon on June 24. This physical awakening/embodiment process marks an entirely new phase of the evolutionary burn: starting September 2016 through the Zero Point Zone in January, there were stair-steps with pauses to integrate; from January to the end of May, wave followed wave without a pause and now from June great blasts of deep space photonic light are lifting us on to higher timelines. This repeated alignment process is only going to increase and quicken throughout 2017.
Zero Point States
- June 21: Solstice, Still Point
- July 9: Capricorn Full Moon, Lion’s Gate + Eclipses, Destiny Point
- August 8+7+21: Points of Infinity
Our exposure to Zero-Point states—nodes in time—becomes more intense, as we time-travel from the Solstice Still Point to the Destiny Point of July’s Capricorn Full Moon and forward to August’s Points of Infinity—the lunar and solar eclipses. Eclipses, as syzygies, create pronounced ripples in the local system’s space-time continuum which radiate in all directions to past and future from the exact moment of the event. The Great American August 21 Solar Eclipse is already casting its shadow back to Now. Be alert for a preview of its coming attractions in your own life, possibly invoking themes from August 1999. This wild-card event is first about Completion, then the Revelation of the New. Conjunct fixed star Regulus on the Sphinx Cusp, known by the ancients as presaging the fall of Kings and empire, it is a strong activator of karmic destiny and the resolution of multiple layers of planetary conflict.
Everyone on earth is feeling the pressure. We are swinging like weather vanes in a storm. We all know that there is no staying in the comfort zone, the null and void zone. Walk into this next level of summer light and eclipses carefully. Do it with intent and from the One Heart. Look deep within your own self for what you seek from others. The collective old-template drop-off in September 2016 occurred because those lower vibrational realities lost energetic support. Bit by bit, the lower timelines are dropping away from our experience, occurring at a faster rate as the timeline split unfolds. The sensation of time disappearing or standing still will increase as the August Gateway approaches.
July Astrology
The whole of July from July 2 to July 26 has continuous volatile Sun/Mars alignments to change-agents Pluto, Uranus, Eris and the Galactic Points. Key dates are: July 1-2; 9-21; 23-26; 30. These are psycho-spiritual leverage points for epochal and personal change—potential gearshifts into the new zeitgeist of 2017-2023, when Pluto enters Aquarius. Frame all disturbance and polarization in the lower timelines as political, social, economic, and personal challenges to the status quo. Ancient texts describe it as the Kali Yuga, when the World Soul is Black in hue—light/dark, black/white, good/bad, heaven/hell duality. As we experience this prophetic passage, the metaphoric prophecy becomes physicalized in external reality. What we are witnessing out in the world is a division of reality choices, even within the Light Tribe, as the vibrational mismatch is becoming wider and wider
July ends with the opening of the seismic window from the August 7 eclipse as Mercury reaches maximum elongation from the Sun. Mercury Max is a period of greater than normal solar activity—including solar flares (M and X class), Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) and geomagnetic activity (KP5 and higher).
Destiny Point—the 17° Capricorn Full Moon on July 9
Like a black sword of iron, Sun conjuncts Mars as Moon conjuncts Pluto square Jupiter, Eris, Uranus. To say this will be intense is an understatement. Jupiter dramatizes and exaggerates this flaming poker aspect from the scales of justice in Libra. A very hot cardinal Grand Cross aims a laser beam on governments, leaders and powerbrokers. Refuse to be intimidated by the sheer nuclear fission and collaborate with the astrology by detoxifying whatever you need to purge. Your body’s messages will be particularly strong—don’t treat the symptoms, get to the root. Prepare for accelerated clearing, full disclosure and heightened physical embodiment. You are not failing, falling or fading, but energetically detaching from people, situations, relationships, roles and illusions that are no longer on your wavelength. Your physical and etheric bodies are being fired like clay in this evolutionary burn. Allow yourself as much rest, withdrawal and non-doing as possible.
Chandra Symbol CAPRICORN 17
A gold ring baked into a cake.
Initiation is a secretive affair. It calls forth discernment and offers immense awakening. It is a narrow path, stern and demanding. Everything proves illusory. The world becomes an empty egg. Yet the guiding ray is so pure. And if the tests are passed, exquisite self-realisation is there. A reminder of what you’ve forgotten. A vow or promise reinstated. Something neglected and denied returning in the most startling ways. A fate-like feeling of get-it-now or get-it-later. No fruitions in the outer, yet all is bright on the inner.
A Universal Re-Write
We are here. We are wildly and dangerously free. ~John O’ Donohue
- Each new level of initiation and light comes personalized;
- You have a choice at each Gateway to opt for an accelerated cycle of evolution or a steady acclimatization. Nothing is fated. Nothing is set in stone. Source is a permeable field of infinite options for your personal creations. Everything starts with you. Everyone has to walk the path of evolution and do their own emotional work. Recognize the energy as Source and yourself as the ultimate Re-Source by putting your own highest interests first;
- Your unique life stream will reveal itself via your mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual reactions as the Light reaches a tipping point of embodiment. Just notice any resistance to changing paths, to physical fluctuations back and forth from tranquillity and centredness to flat out exhaustion, to not knowing what it means;
- Finding and then following the natural rhythms and flow of your life becomes hugely important for grounding. Your mind is way too small and undeveloped a tool for this high level of vast Light energy. The High Heart is a frequency match for it so get used to thinking, feeling, perceiving and creating from there;
We are in a new world. You are no longer dependent on the gatekeepers. The gates in so many places that banned and banished and exiled and closed us out, have been blown off their hinges. The gates are just hanging there all black wires sprung and looking pathetic. Now, there is just you. Everything is dependent on you, your WORK, your daily work. Think of what this time of your life means, here in the 21st century. Wake up! You have NEVER been more free, more capable, with more tools available than once belonged only to the ruling king. ~ Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Unpublished Work
