〰️ It is safe to be who you are 〰️
It is safe to be who you are.
It is safe to feel pleasure.
It is safe to be reborn.
You deserve:
To take care of yourself,
To rest your heart in a safe harbor,
To receive abundance,
To do something just for you.
We are welcoming a New Moon in Cancer.
It arrives with powerful alignments—
and it’s out of bounds,
close to the Solstice,
far beyond the limits we’ve known.
It asks us to dare—to create a new version of ourselves, beyond the norms that have been imposed on us.
To liberate ourselves from what is “supposed to be.”
So let me ask you:
Do you feel free to open your heart?
Can you fully express what you feel?
Not just anger—
but love, too.
Have you ever felt afraid to share love
because you’re afraid they might leave?
Are you able to give your overflowing compassion freely,
or does it get stuck in the ego battles of being human?
We speak of the power of love,
but how resilient is this love,
within the wear and tear of human relationships?
We live within so many boundaries—
ones placed upon us by patriarchy, by family,
by society, by taboos.
Like the time we were forced to wear that itchy pair of shorts as a child…
Now, those constraints are more invisible—
but no less heavy: ancestral guilt, family patterns, inherited fates.
But the time for blame is over.
They birthed us into this world once—
now it is our time to birth ourselves anew.
It is time to write a new collective story,
anchored in the power of love.
The sky itself is aligning a great constellation of support:
ancestral, spiritual, and cosmic.
We are held—fully, limitlessly.
This New Moon forms a Yod with Mars and Pluto—
an invitation to shed outdated forms,
to take off what was imposed upon us,
and to dare to wear what we choose—even if it’s different.
And to know:
we are safe in doing so.
As Dane Rudhyar said:
The only true place where safety exists is the heart.
And now, Mercury squaring Chiron reminds us:
We must interpret what comes from the heart,
not through our wounds, but through the light.
To wake from illusion and align the divine plan
with our truth and the living laws of the Earth.
In times when we tend to criticize and devalue ourselves,
healing does not come from scrubbing ourselves raw—
but from wrapping ourselves in compassion.
From understanding our wounds.
From asking the Universe for support—
and receiving the help it sends through others.
Our nervous systems long to reattune to Nature.
Before the storm of the mind returns,
and while the sky is shifting into fire and air elements for a long season—
this week offers a powerful opportunity
to root deeply into the heart.
So ask yourself:
How much of your conscious ego is built on love?
Who are you—really?
And who do you choose to be today?
Like the ocean witnessing every drop,
the entire Universe bears witness
as you align your ego with the higher plan of your soul.
Let the power of love ground you in the Earth.
Let your heartbreaks be not punishments—
but portals to receive and radiate more light.
As you midwife yourself through this birth,
may love walk beside you.
Blessed be this New Moon.
Aho.

Key Aspects
By AMANDA SIBILIA
June 29th, 2025: Mercury in Leo opposes Retrograde Pluto in Aquarius (3°)
This aspect illuminates a tension between outdated ways of thinking and the soul’s urge for authentic self-expression.
You may feel torn between trusting your intuitive knowing and clinging to inherited narratives shaped by societal expectations. This is a call to drop out of the head and into the heart’s wisdom. Let your Solar consciousness lead: not what you think you should do, but what you know in your bones is true. However, the fear of rejection can snuff out your creative light.
The heart wants to be a channel. It wants to guide you, to show you that you’re supported by Spirit, by your Higher Self, and by the unseen forces walking with you. Your experience now isn’t just for you: it’s a bridge. One that may help others walk their path in courage too.
July 3, 2025: Venus in Taurus conjunct Uranus in Taurus (29°)
The planet of love, self-worth, and beauty unites with the awakener—Uranus—at the final degree of Taurus, marking the closing of a six-year journey. Since 2018, Uranus in Taurus has shaken the foundations of what we value: our security, our relationships, our connection to the Earth and the body. For many, this period has brought radical reorientations in love, money, and self-reliance—forcing us to confront where we’ve been surviving instead of thriving.
Now, at the anaretic (last chance ) degree, the heart receives one final download. This is the moment of integration: a soul-deep opportunity to reclaim your sovereignty, to honor your unique gifts, and to free yourself from values that were never truly yours. Can you trust your instincts? Can you follow the pleasure, not the programming?
You’ve earned the wisdom through disruption. Let the lesson land. Choose the path that honors your inner truth—and let the rest fall away.
July 4, 2025: Neptune stations retrograde at 2° Aries
Neptune in Aries has given us a glimpse of the new dream—a vision sparked by the soul’s desire to step forward, to initiate, to lead from a place of spiritual courage. Now, as Neptune stations retrograde, we’re invited to pause. Reflect. Reassess. The external fire dims so the inner flame can be tended.
This is a sacred return inward, a time to dissolve the illusions, distractions, and energetic entanglements that keep you from fully claiming your power. What dims your connection to Spirit? What beliefs or patterns make you forget that you are the conduit?
Neptune retrograde calls us to surrender—not as a loss, but as a clearing. The old car must break down before you can drive the new one off the lot. The dreams falling apart? They’re making space for the ones that are actually aligned with your soul’s becoming.
This is a threshold moment. Trust what’s ending. Grieve if you must. But don’t resist the deeper pull: to embody your path with spiritual devotion and warrior-hearted faith. The veil is lifting. Let the real you come through.
July 7, 2025: Uranus enters Gemini
A new evolutionary portal opens. Uranus, the planet of awakening and liberation, enters Gemini—sign of the mind, the messenger, the trickster, and the twins. This marks the beginning of a 7-year collective initiation around how we think, communicate, learn, and connect through information.
We’re entering an age of accelerated mental downloads, technological innovation, and nervous system upgrades. But true freedom doesn’t come from having all the answers—it comes from asking better questions. Uranus in Gemini invites you to break free from inherited beliefs, rewire and rewild the mind, and become a channel for inspired, non-linear intelligence.
Speaking of…you may begin to see what was once hidden: the grid behind the matrix, the sacred codes in conversation, the signals between the lines. Flashes of insight. Timelines folding. A sense that you’re not just learning—you’re remembering.
This is the liberation of perception itself. A thinning of the veil. And the beginning of a new language for soul truth.
Much love + blessings,
Amanda
