Monthly Astrology And Energy Update: 3 Things July 2019 Is Bringing For Each Person

The energy of the last month was intense. However, this month the energy is going to extremes so you better learn how to surf these energy waves.

This energy contrast is due to the two forces in play this month, the push of accelerated waking up and the pull of taking things slow.

If you think about it, these two forces have the same purpose. They both try to help us evolve, to wake up and elevate our reality and our consciousness.

It’s a month of OPPORTUNITY. Our consciousness and our reality need to elevate together, so just waking up, becoming more conscious isn’t enough.

What we really need to do is embody this higher consciousness so we can update our old behavioral patterns and elevate our reality and the world.

3 Things July 2019 Is Bringing For Each Person:

monthly-astrology-and-energy-update-july-2019

The biggest event of July is definitely the Eclipses, but before we get into what they may bring, there is something else happening in the first part of July that is worth mentioning, and this is the alignment of the Sun and Sirius.

It has long been believed to be our Spiritual Sun, and its energy is said to help activate and awaken us. For the first part of July, we are going to be in a heightened state of energy thanks to Sirius, and we will be more open to elevate our consciousness.

The first Eclipse of the month falls on July 2nd and it’s a Solar or New Moon eclipse in the sign of Cancer. This Solar Eclipse is all about stepping forward into the future. It is full of opportunities, wisdom, and spiritual insights.

It is an intense Eclipse, but it is one that will help us to open doors and get us to where we want to be. This is a great Eclipse if you are looking for opportunity or for change, so set your intention, put your feelers out there and see how The Universe delivers.

If you are feeling lost and a little undirected in life, this Eclipse may also present some opportunities to help guide your way. Try to stay open and try to say yes to the things that come your way as you don’t know where they might lead.

Following the July Solar Eclipse, we have Mercury going retrograde on the 7th. While Mercury Retrograde is often seen as an annoyance, in this instance it is really is a gift. It’s a chance for us to slow down and embody an updated version of ourselves.

After the wave of opportunity that the Solar Eclipse brings, we are going to want a chance to slow down and weigh up our options, and that is where Mercury comes to help us, to make us take things slow.

Mercury will be guiding us to look at the past and to reflect on what we have learned before moving forward. It wants to remind us of the wisdom and knowledge we have gained so we can avoid making the same mistakes from our past.

If Mercury retrograde brings up things from your past, pay attention and figure out whether you want to make that past part of your future or if you are ready to leave it behind, a big theme is letting go of the past for something better.

A day after Mercury goes Retrograde, Chiron follows, giving us a total of 7 celestial bodies in retrograde through most of the month. This is strong retrograde energy and really the way of The Universe allowing us to slow down and catch our breath.

The following Eclipse is a Lunar Eclipse in the sign of Capricorn. This Lunar Eclipse is one of the heaviest aspects of the year, however it too is also helping us on that elevator ride to the new level of our consciousness.

In order to move up, we have to clear, we have to let go, we have to release, and that is exactly what this Lunar Eclipse will be guiding us to do. Under this Lunar Eclipse, it will be important for us to remember our strength, to remember all we have learned.

Everything we need has already been given to us, and keeping this in mind under the Lunar Eclipse will be helpful. We already know the way, we are just walking towards it. This month gives a great opportunity to actually act on the wisdom we have inside.

On July 22, we begin the start of Leo Season. We are going to feel new motivation as we move out of the watery and the intuitive energy of the sign of Cancer and into the fiery sign of the Lion.

Following this on the 31st, we have a Black New Moon in the sign of Leo. A Black New Moon is very rare and happens when we have two New Moons in one month. This Leo Black Moon will help to seal in and round off the opportunities that the Solar Eclipse brought.

The first thing this month gives is OPPORTUNITY OF REALIGNMENT. This means that you will have moments when you feel aligned with the best things meant for you, but you will be given an opportunity to change your behavior that steers you away from them.

The second thing that this month gives is OPPORTUNITY OF ELEVATION. This means that you will have moments of ecstatic understanding and expansion, but you will also have contraction, so you will learn you need them both to digest the higher knowledge you get.

The third thing that this month gives is OPPORTUNITY OF REALIZATION. This means that you will have profound realizations but you will be given an opportunity to reflect on these realizations and implement them in your life before they fade, this will help you evolve.

If you don’t know what are your interests, take a piece of paper, and write every thing that excites you. When you have the list it’s much easier to know what to research.

2. Meditate.

We often think that we need to get something spectacular from the outside world, to reach a big goal, but happiness is much more easily attainable. Just meditate for 15 minutes.

The 4 Easy Ways How To Make The Most Of Your Next Family Road Trip

Spending time with your family might not be your favorite thing to do. However, it can be really fun if you all work together. Summer road trips top the list of vacations taken by American families, with around 53% planning to see the U.S. by car this year.

Road trips offer an unbeatable sense of freedom and convenience, and they enable families to bond and reconnect, which is great news for parents and children who don’t manage to spend enough quality time together on a daily basis.

If you are set on taking to the wheel this summer and you’d like to ensure that everyone, parents, kids and pets included, have a fabulous time, follow these tips and make it a trip to remember.

4 Ways How To Make The Most Of Your Next Family Road Trip:

how-to-make-the-most-of-your-next-family-road-trip

1. Space for fun is crucial.

Each family has specific activities that makes them feel closer to each other. In your family, this might include board games, reading, or watching films together. If you will be on the road for a considerable portion of your journey, you need enough space to store these items. When selecting a car type, make sure yours has a spacious trunk. If you’re a large family or you’re traveling with pets, a fifth wheel RV may be well worth considering. A trailer will enable you to bring items like bicycles, skateboards and sports gear like helmets, hiking and diving gear etc. so you can practice all your favorite sports at your chosen destinations. Another great thing you can do if all other options are exhausted is to play some free online games like Solitaire. It was a life saver if you ask my friend.

2. Make lists of things you want to do for all.

You know you will be traveling from Point A to B, but you may not know all the natural and cultural wonders that each city, town or village houses. Ensure that your trip isn’t too structured. One of the greatest wonders of road travel is the discovery of new sites that take your breath away. If you are traveling with children and they are old enough to conduct research online, let each select one unique place to visit along your journey. You may be surprised by the unique treasures that even your youngest family member has discovered.

3. Food and snacks are big part of the fun.

If you will be visiting various cities or towns, make sure to try out a few local delicacies. From sweet to savory items, don’t miss out on trying out specialities, especially those made with local products. Think about cheese, freshly baked bread and local recipes that soothe body, mind and soul.

4. Create a playlist that surprises.

Because you will be spending many hours in motion, creating a knockout playlist is key to keep morale high and to keep children’s minds off the question, “Are we there yet?” Does your partner love grunge? Is your child mad about classical music? How about you, are you mad about 1980s hits, or do you find the Beatles impossible not to sing along to? Make various playlists, at least one for each family member. Remember that you don’t only have to listen to music. If you’re feeling a bit tired or anxious, or the kids are starting to argue, apps like Calm and Breathe will run you through short 5 to 10 minute breathing or meditation exercises that will take you back to the present moment and lower stress levels for young and old alike.

They say that the best way to enjoy a family road trip is to make no plans at all. While it is true that the freedom of moving as you wish and going where you want to is immensely liberating, doing just a tiny bit of research to discover top must see places can boost the fun factor. Travel light, but not so light that you leave crucial comforts at home, make playlists you could listen to and never grow tired of, and above all, remember that you don’t have to achieve or do one thing in particular. The secret to a fabulous road trip is simply being, and if you can do that with the people you love, all the better time you will all have.

How To Be A Positive Influence For Others

Awareness is essential if you want to make the world a better place.

We all want to change the world. We all want to make thing better for everyone else. But we don’t actually do anything about it.

Making the world a better place starts with you, with your awareness and freedom of choice, with making better choices for you and everyone else.

This is not something that you do every Friday, there is no formula on what exactly you need to do.

There is no formula because every person is different, and you need to make positive influence every single day, in different situations.

All you need is to be more aware. This will help you be more present to every moment and make a choice what is best thing to do for everyone.

Be A Positive Influence For Others:

how-to-be-positive-influence-for-others

You have a freedom of choice, a free will to choose the direction where you will invest your time and energy.

You are free to decide your thoughts, the meaning of things, how you use your emotions, the actions you take, your social circle, your environment.

This being said, you have the power to influence others, to choose how you will happen to the world. All you need is to be aware.

And awareness is not taught, it’s trained. You need to train it daily like a muscle, the more you train your awareness, the bigger it is.

The bigger your awareness is, the bigger space and more control you have to make your own choices based on reason.

This gives you an ability to decide how you influence others, what advices you tell them, whether or not you tell them something positive or negative.

Because we are habitual creatures, we tend to create habits and compulsions that help us live on automatic, not really thinking what we do.

Not thinking what we do, we are bound to act as everyone else, as the stream moves. However, if you want to elevate the world, you need to lead.

This demands for you to exercise your free will and make better choices for everyone else. As you do this, you help others be more aware themselves.

5 Ways How To Use Anxiety In Your Advantage

When you embrace uncertainty as a natural part of the world, anxiety seems to lose its grip on you.

We have said this many times, but it’s really confusing how in the safest and most comfortable times in history there are highest levels of anxiety.

It makes you think. It tells that the feeling of anxiety is not based on logical reason but on irrational triggers projected by the mind.

We are species who evolved in much different circumstances and environments than ones we live in today. We evolved thousands of years.

And we changed the tempo of thousands of years of evolution with the tempo of hundred years of technological progress.

All this means that we function on an outdated software. Anxiety is an old program working in the background. Here is how to use it until you update.

5 Ways To Use Anxiety In Your Advantage:

how-to-use-anxiety-in-your-advantage

1. Use it as a trigger to slow down.

Like every other emotion, anxiety speaks a message. The message of anxiety is basically slow down, look around, rethink about your choices, is there something you need to do, is there something you need to know. Anxiety is like overly worried guardian that doesn’t even know what to worry about. So use this period to slow down. You don’t have to change your plans, just slow down and observe.

2. Use it as a signal to learn more.

Anxiety, and even fear, are stimulating emotions. They stimulate you to gain more knowledge about what you want to do, to think of a smarter strategy, to find a better way of doing something. They stimulate you to be smarter. Most of us let them stop us from doing what we wanted, but all anxiety aimed to do was to nudge us, to push us to think of a smarter strategy, to help us do what we wanted in a better way.

3. Use it as a substitute for excitement.

When the two emotions are compared, anxiety and excitement are almost exactly the same. They are the same sensations in the same areas of the body. The only difference between anxiety and excitement is in the context that we give to these feelings. It’s the psychological factor that differs. And you can use this in your advantage by reframing the way you look at the emotion. Whenever you feel anxious think you are actually excited.

4. Use it as a window to get to know yourself.

The thing that makes anxiety the most persistent and irritating emotion is the uncertainty factor. Anxiety feeds on uncertainty, and uncertainty is well, everywhere. However, instead of fighting the uncertainty of the world we live in, or get addicted to compulsions that give us a sense of certainty, embrace uncertainty. Instead, try to examine yourself. Use anxiety as a window to find the things about your character that cannot be changed.

5. Use it as a sign to realign with your purpose.

Feeling anxiety does not mean there is something wrong with you. In fact, it means that your defensive mechanism works as it should. Anxiety is a defensive mechanism of your subconscious aiming to give you a nudge, to let you know that you have steered away from your purpose, that what you occupy your time with is not really that much important, that there are other things your soul screams for you to do instead. Learn what they are.

10 Things You Should Know About Happiness To Gain Clarity Out Of The Confusion

The more you seek happiness, the less happy you are.

The whole world seems to be on a quest to find happiness. But these times people report to feel the most lonely, depressed and confused than ever.

Is it because we became bigger whiners than our ancestors, or is it something wrong with the way we go about this quest? The quest is wrong.

Seeking happiness creates distance between you and happiness, it creates lack, and the more you chase after it the bigger the lack is.

The bigger the lack is the more lonely, depressed and confused we feel, because we get momentary happiness and realize it’s what we are after.

There is a lot of confusion when it comes to happiness, especially with modern spirituality. In this article we aim to clarify most things.

10 Things You Should Know About Happiness:

things-you-should-know-about-happiness

1. There is no happiness within you to be found, there are things you can pursue that will make you happy.

2. Everything that makes you happy outside of you is linked to something within you, that’s what really makes you happy.

3. Happiness starts from within you, because all the things you think are going to make you happy are actually projections of things within you that you want to pursue.

4. Following the things you are passionate about, your purpose, your dreams, the pursuit itself will actually make you happy, even though you are not actively pursuing happiness you will stumble upon it a lot more than if you were.

5. There is a big difference between joy and happiness, the one comes from pleasure, the other comes from being aligned with what your purpose is, with what really matters to you, with your essence.

6. Happiness is a sign on the path of purpose, you do not try to find the sign you actually try to find the destination and that’s your purpose, so follow your purpose and let the signs of happiness guide you.

7. Happiness doesn’t give you more energy, it simply releases more energy from your potential.

8. Happiness comes and goes, purpose is what’s important, purpose is what gives meaning, it gives fulfillment.

9. Being happy is not the most important thing in life, it’s just one color out of the whole big palette.

10. Trying to do what makes you happy instead of what is right and what gives positive results is selfish, it becomes an ego desire, it’s overrated.

The 3 Ways To Look At Food So You Can Make Better Choices By Yourself

Feed your body, not your self.

With all the nutritionists and all the articles around the internet writing about healthy diets, it’s hard not to get confused.

There is contradictory advice, false promises and a whole industry working to sell you an easy solution, a quick diet to meet your requirements.

And the thing that gives them away is the only positive description they decorate their advice with.

This gives them away because there is no perfect diet. Every diet has flaws and cons, you should choose the one with the flaws you can tolerate.

However, eating healthier is possible. If you want to learn how to eat healthier you can study these principles that will clarify many things.

The 3 Ways To Look At Food To Eat Healthier:

ways-to-look-at-food-so-you-can-make-better-choices-by-yourself

1. Food is information.

Consuming food is just like any other consumption. When you read a book, watch a movie or converse with someone, you are feeding your mind information. You are digesting sentences and words dipped in meaning and you extract information.

The information you consume becomes part of your mind, of your memory. Positive information can help you and your whole system become a better version of yourself. It’s the same with every meal that you eat. Just like words are digesting the food molecules.

You are extracting information from those molecules, information that is stored within your body. This information can benefit your whole system, or it can make it harder for it. It can be wisdom, or more confusion for your system. Eat simple dishes, but vary your foods.

2. Think how you can make it easier for your body.

Most of us eat foods based on their taste. The taste that a meal is giving us a priority for the majority. Other people eat just so they can replenish their energy. However, eating is like giving a package of energy for your body and it needs to unpack it.

If unpacking the package takes a lot more effort than the reward within is worth, than there is no point in giving and unpacking that package. Most people will make their body spend a lot of effort unpacking a package just for the taste.

If you want to start eating healthier you should think about making it easier for your body, giving it packages that are easy to unpack but hold valuable rewards. Eat veggies, fruits, organic and locally farmed food. It’s an easier package to unpack filled with nutrients.

3. Do not eat until you feel full.

We have habit of eating until we feel full. Some people eat even after they feel full because of the taste buds. They will stuff their mouths even if they know they will feel nauseous after, just because they lack discipline to resist their taste desires.

Eating until you are full is ok. However, the information that we are full has a lag of around 15 minutes, and if you wait until you feel being full, you will actually over eat. So that’s why you should aim lower. If you eat until you feel full you have already over ate.

The smarter and wiser way to eat is to sense when you are almost full. Then, you need to have a discipline to stop. You might think you can eat a little more, but remember, the information lags. So be smarter. Eat until you are almost full.

5 Things You Should Know Before You Start To Follow Your Heart

Following your heart means voting for the things you love.

Follow your heart. This is an advice you hear or read almost everywhere. But rarely who explains what does it really mean to follow your heart.

We all have something that we can create, a paradise reality we can channel into the world. We all have a sense of this vibe we can feel it.

No matter who you are, you have a sense of your ideal reality. The things that you love resonate with the vibe of this ideal reality you can create.

The things that you love, your passions, your purpose, people you are getting along with, all these things are glimpses of your paradise reality.

When you follow your heart you are actually investing in this ideal reality, and the more you invest in it, the more you manifest it into the world.

5 Things You Should Know Before Following Your Heart:

things-you-should-know-before-you-follow-your-heart

1. There will usually be a really smooth start.

Whenever you decide to start following your heart it will seem like everything conspires to help you. Opportunities and signs will present themselves to guide you.

2. There will be tough times.

However, as you start following your heart things will start looking harder and harder. At some moments you will think it’s impossible to achieve what you want. But keep going.

3. There will be a moment you feel apathy.

At some moments you will feel completely lost. You will be confused, not knowing what is it that you actually want, that you are actually following. You will feel apathetic.

4. There will be a moment you will be alone.

At other moments it will seem like nobody else believes in the vision of your heart but you. You will feel alone, you will doubt yourself and your decisions to follow your heart.

5. There will be a much greater reward.

And if you push through these trails, you’ll get a reward much greater than you imagined. Following what you love will result in creating a reality with the vibration of what you love.
