Spotlight On: Reiki

Welcoming July’s mystical energy, we step fully into the frequency of the number 7—a vibration of introspection, spiritual awakening, and soul evolution. This sacred energy encourages us to slow down, tune in, and trust the wisdom of our intuition.

Physically, you may feel more tired or sensitive as your body integrates the powerful energy from the recent solstice. Rest, hydrate, and honor what your body needs as it adjusts to these cosmic shifts. Emotionally, July’s number 7 invites deep reflection. Old wounds or hidden truths may surface, asking to be healed and released. Relationships could be tested, solitude might feel essential, and your heart may expand to hold even more love and compassion. Energetically, this is a time of profound spiritual upgrades. Your intuition and psychic senses are sharpening, your auric field is expanding, and you’re opening to higher states of consciousness. You’re not just changing—you’re unfolding into your true, independent luminous self. As we move through this gateway, trust that everything is aligning for your highest good. Each challenge grows you, each insight frees you, and every moment is an invitation to embody more light and love. You are co-creating with the universe.

As we step fully into July, the air practically hums with the vibrant energy of summer. This month, filled with sunshine, laughter, and a slightly slower pace of life, always brings to mind the core values we celebrate on the 4th – independence, self-determination, and the freedom to forge our own path.

Just as our forefathers declared their political sovereignty, July invites us to consider our own personal independence. What does it mean to be self-governed, self-directed, and self-responsible in your own life? This isn't just about big, sweeping declarations, but often about the daily choices that empower us. Especially in light of the unfolding narratives across the globe, the daily experience of choosing peace – peace within yourself – is a bold act of spiritual independence. When the world outside can feel turbulent, cultivating an inner sanctuary becomes not just desirable, but essential.

This July, as you enjoy those quintessential summer moments – the backyard barbeques, family gatherings, and outdoor adventures – we encourage you to integrate a different kind of energy: the energy of self-reflection and self-care. It's easy to get swept up in the whirlwind of summer activities, and before we know it, August is knocking on the door. This year, make a conscious effort to carve out time for you. As we've explored in previous posts, society sometimes misconstrues leisure time as laziness. But nothing could be further from the truth! Rest, relaxation, and genuine fun are not luxuries; they are essential components of a well-fueled life.

Think about it: just as a powerful engine needs the right fuel and occasional downtime for maintenance, so do you. Finding moments for self-reflection allows you to recharge, to reconnect with your inner compass, and to ensure your energy is being directed towards what truly matters to you.

Whether it’s a quiet morning with a cup of coffee, a leisurely walk in nature, or simply unplugging to spend quality time with loved ones, these moments of intentional rest contribute significantly to your personal independence. They empower you to make clearer decisions, pursue your goals with renewed vigor, and truly savor the beauty of this fleeting season.

This July, we are being invited to cherish every moment. Embrace the joy of summer, and in doing so, take a moment to reflect on your own journey of independence. What does it mean for you to be self-governed and self-directed in this beautiful, sun-drenched month? We need rest, relaxation and fun! Cherish this month.

Continuing our theme - What does it mean to be personally independent?

“Everything good, everything magical happens between the months of June and August”
— Jenny Han

A true feeling of independence starts with an energy, a force that fuels and permeates the human spirit. A sense of independence is also recognizing that freedom is a state of mind. But it also means having awareness of connection, gratitude, cognizance, self-reliance, and safety.

  • A Sense of Connection – fostering healthy relationships

  • A Sense of Gratitude – nurturing an attitude of gratitude for all that you have

  • A Sense of Awareness – being awake to the moment

  • A Sense of Self-Reliance – knowing you can do it

  • A Sense of Dominion – owning your personal space

  • A Sense of Home – no matter where you are at any time, “home” is within

Personal independence is non-negotiable; a commodity that no one can ever take from you, because it has nothing to do with external stuff. Your personal sovereignty is where you reign.

Full Moon - July 10th - Buck Moon

July’s full Buck Moon will rise on Thursday, July 10, reaching peak illumination at 4:37 P.M. Eastern Time. It will be below the horizon at that time, so plan to look towards the southeast after sunset to watch it rise into the sky. The full Moon in July is called the Buck Moon because the antlers of male deer (bucks) are in full-growth mode at this time. Bucks shed and regrow their antlers each year, producing a larger and more impressive set as the years go by. Source Farmers Almanac

Crystal of the Month – Drusy Spirit Quartz (aka Cactus Quartz)

This is my incredibly gorgeous Drusy Spirit Torch. Yes, the one I am holding is in the shape of a giant torch. It think it is the perfect crystal for July - as in Lady Liberty and her Torch. It is purple with hints of reddish iron oxides.

This crystal can appear like sparkling snow.  The Spirit Quartz is a gemstone of harmony, alignment, and nurturing spiritual growth. Also known as the cactus quartz or porcupine quartz, this gem takes its creative names from its intriguing appearance.  My Spirit Quartz is made up of a combination of Amethyst, Citrine, and Smoky Quartz with many other smaller crystals adorning its surface. For those looking to illuminate their spiritual path, the Spirit Quartz can be your perfect guide. 

To access the energy of this stone, you can either focus on the image of the stone or hold a piece of it in your hand. As you do so, visualize the stone's grounding energy flowing through your body, bringing you a sense of calm, balance, and clarity. Once you have that energy flowing, invite in a new spiritual expansion or awareness.

Thank you for reading this blog and supporting my work. May the spirit of summer fill your heart with endless possibilities and unshakable hope.

Love, Light and Blessings to you all. Rose Healing Center is here to help you manifest what you wish to bring in to your life whether it be peace, health, creativity or something else.
