In this July 2025 energy update, Christine J. Gold delivers a conversational, instructional overview of the month’s intense retrograde season—Pluto, Neptune, Saturn, Mercury, the lunar nodes, Chiron, and Lilith—explaining each planet’s thematic focus (shadow healing, illusion dissolution, karmic lessons, communication delays, core wounds, and wild intuition). She links these energies to the July 10 Capricorn full moon (detox, release, grounding) and the July 24 Leo new moon (courageous beginnings, bold self‑expression, heart‑centered leadership), offering concrete rituals such as writing and burning release lists, candle intention‑setting, grounding meditations, and solar plexus activation. Throughout, she promotes her 7‑day Clarity Code reset, a movement‑mindfulness‑meditation (MMA) resource, a 90‑day Soul Healers Method mentorship, and a free community, while sharing her credentials as an empath recovery coach, Reiki master, animal seer, and nomadic traveler with a vision of a healing retreat center. The video ends with calls to comment, like, subscribe, and engage.

Welcome to your July 2025 energy update. I'm Christine J Gold, here to guide you through this month's intense retrograde season, full moons, new moon energies, and soul invitations. July is a karmic turning point and a major month for deep intuitive and inner work. Yes, we are in full retrograde wave— try and say that fast— with Pluto, Neptune, Saturn, Mercury, the nodes, and Chiron. All spinning backwards. So this is not a month for rushing forward, unlike June. It's about reflecting, revising, realigning, and releasing. With the Capricorn full moon and the Leo new moon— yes, this is the start of Leo season as well— we are called to balance structure with play, leadership with softness, and purpose with authenticity. So I'm just going to give you a little retrograde breakdown in case you're curious. I just find it very interesting that we have, um, 5 planets in retrograde starting with Pluto. Pluto is all about soul excavation, shadow healing, Power Reclamation. Neptune is next: Dissolving Illusions, Finding Spiritual Truth, and Facing Reality. Saturn: Revisiting Responsibilities, Karmic Lessons, Rebuilding with Integrity. And in a, you know, I had a question the other day on my TikTok platform because I'm part of Community Fest there, and somebody asked what was my take on spiritual narcissism. Narcissism, well, it really has a lot to do with Saturn, so go see what that connection is and comment below and let me know. Mercury, now Mercury goes into retrograde 4 times a year. This is not something new, it's not something to be scared of. However, it's something to be aware of. Communication delays, technology glitches, contracts needing double-checking, past relationships resurfacing. Chiron. Chiron. I'm sure we all heard of Chiron, the wounded healer. We've heard that term. Maybe this, this is something new for you. Chiron is about core wounds around self-worth. And rejection may resurface. And I'm seeing this in some spiritual aspects, not only for myself but people around me. I was actually on a Zoom recently with a bunch of practitioners, and I could see this— people were just talking about all their titles and certifications and what they do. So their self-worth is running amok, meaning it's not completely healed. They feel they have to prove something. They, in order to have— they have all these titles, then that means they're worthy. Do you see the, the self-worth rejection connection there? So this is a chance to finally heal. The nodes, karmic relationships, past life patterns reemerge. And I'm talking about the North and the South Node. They reemerge for review and release. Lilith Trust your wild, trust your intuition, trust your intuitive untamed side, and claim your space just like Ozzy does. He claims his space. So let's talk about the Capricorn full moon coming up on July 10th. I'm a fellow Cappy. If you are, let me know. You know, comment below. I'd love to know. But this full moon, really, they're about detoxing, releasing, surrendering. I heard that word a lot in the, in the group as well. Releasing old structures— we're seeing this right now in real time— obligations, heavy commitments that no longer align. Pluto's retrograde will amplify this release. Absolutely. Prepare for Found inner shifts. So maybe like a ritual for this would be writing down what no longer— all the old things you want to let go of, your obligations, anything that feels heavy, any people, places, and things that no longer align. Write it down, have like a burning bowl ceremony, or maybe you have a fire pit in the backyard, whatever it is. Fireplace and just toss it in there. Light a candle, burn the paper, make sure you do it safely. A grounding meditation to go along with it, and then you can visualize, or you can assist with a video or a podcast, a chakra cleanse along with some healing frequencies. I would highly recommend that. Now we're going to shift into the Leo New Moon, July 24th, you know, kind of the official start of Leo season as well. Um, courageous, you know, like a lion. Rawr! And if you're Leo, we want to celebrate your birthday. Drop it below, I'd love to know. We'd love to celebrate you. Maybe, yeah, we have a little birthday gift for our birthday, our Leo babies. So Drop it below. This is about courageous new beginnings, bold self-expression, and heart-centered leadership. Yes, everyone, we all have the ability to lead. Are we leading with the heart? Are we leading with the soul? Or are we leading with here? And maybe our intentions are not clear. And we're looking to, uh, be seen, be heard, maybe dictate on our terms, right? And Mercury retrograde begins just before the Leo New Moon, so set intentions carefully. Be mindful of miscommunications as well. Lilith's direct energy supports you in expressing your most unapologetic self. Uh, here's a ritual for the new moon. It's about new intentions, fresh new beginnings, planting seeds. Uh, light a candle, have a candle intention setting, mirroring, come up with some affirmations, maybe a solar plexus activation because that's really what Leo is connected to is the sun. And the I am, the, the— you could say ego as well. Um, it's all about your confidence. I mean, Leos are quite confident, dramatic, you know, that's a Leo energy, right? The king, the queen. Yes, that kind of energy. So yes, um, I am— if this is something that has helped you, I'm keeping this month's video very short and sweet. I have a lot of freebies. They're all listed below, but I guess the most potent one coming up is the Clarity Code. It's a 7-day reset beta program. You got 30 tabs open, but you don't start anything. You don't know where to start. Procrastination or feeling overwhelmed. Feeling not good enough, where do I start, I need clarity. Well, that's why I created this as part of that, that's showing up. And then I have the MMA, which is a movement, mindful, and meditation support with mantras. So maybe it's a MMMA affirmations. As well, of course, you can join my group mentorship. The Soul Healers Method, which in 90 days is guaranteed to heal the worthiness wound. I'd love to work with you either way. You can book a connection call and see if it's a fit. But I invite you to join my free Soul Healers Community either here on YouTube or on Facebook, and you'll receive exclusive content, full moon content, new moon rituals, retrograde guidance. I believe there will be a free retrograde, um, guide, like tips and tricks, linked below. My gosh, a bunch of gifts for July, um, and their supportive connection. So all the links, all the information will be in the description. And please don't forget to like, to subscribe, and hit the bell for more cosmic wisdom. So let me know how you're feeling in— for July. It really is, um, full of powerful retrogrades and shifts. I told you about all the key dates, um, and, and just let me know if, you know, you really can affirm for the new moon that, um, a gold candle maybe— I am worthy of being seen, heard, and celebrated. Whereas the full moon in Capricorn is really about grounding, releasing, surrendering control, and grounding yourself in a new commitment. Either way, I'd like to know, drop a comment below if you're ready to embrace your retrograde medicine and really tap in. I am also an empath recovery coach if you want to know more about that. I am certified. I'm also a certified Reiki master, animal seer, fellow slow traveler. I've been nomadic since 2019. And my big whale Moby Dick of a dream is to have a healing retreat center where people can come and let go and reconnect with themselves and come out feeling lighter, brighter, wiser, and with clarity to forge their soul's journey. All right, everyone, I'm sending you lots of love. Take care, and we'll see you next month.
