July 2025 Energy: Disguise Slips. Truth Hits. Legacy Starts.

Let’s not sugarcoat it—July is a lot.
It’s not coming in with soft petals and affirmations. It’s cracking knuckles. Calling your bluff. Asking if the mask you’ve been wearing is actually fused to your face or if you’re just afraid to take it off.

This month? You’ll be tested. Not in a punishment way. In a "you said you wanted more, remember?" kind of way.

Here’s what the cards laid down.

Citadel Spread: The Archetypes That Came to Wreck and Rewire

The Alchemist – You're not breaking down, you're breaking open. Transformation doesn’t look cute mid-process. Keep going.
The Painter – You’ve got creative control again. Whether you're rewriting your story or repainting your personality, the brush is in your hand now.
The Vengeance – Not about revenge. This is about taking your power back from the places you gave it away politely.
The Mascareri – The masks that once protected you are starting to itch. They don't fit anymore, and deep down, you know it.
The Captain – Nobody’s steering the ship but you. Scary? Yes. But liberating? Absolutely.
The Archer (back of deck) – Your soul has a target. July is all about drawing the bow. Aim matters. Hitting it? That comes later.

This lineup doesn’t play. It’s telling you: Stop performing your potential. Start living it.

Tarot Check-In: The Core Four

When I asked “what else do we need to know?” these came flying out:

Ten of Pentacles – Legacy energy. Not just money—meaning. Are you building something that will still matter when you're gone, or just surviving this week?
The Magician – You already have what you need. Tools, skills, timing. If you're still waiting for a sign, this is it.
Seven of Swords – Self-deception, escapism, side-door exits. Are you being sneaky with yourself about what you really want?
The Tower (bottom of deck) – That thing you know is unstable? It’s about to give. Let it. Don't cling to the burning house just because you hung the curtains.

This spread isn’t subtle. It's a cosmic side-eye followed by a mic drop.

The Quiet Part That Speaks the Loudest: Soul’s Whisper

From the Akashic deck, we pulled Soul’s Whisper—the card that shows up when you've been pretending you “don’t know,” even though you do.

This is the part of you that’s been whispering truth all along. Not in dramatic epiphanies—just quiet knowing. The kind that doesn’t yell because it shouldn’t have to.

This is the line between reacting and reclaiming. Between noise and knowing.

The Vibe of the Month:

“Don’t be afraid of the collapse. Be afraid of staying in something that needs to fall.”

July is about walking out of the performance and into your purpose.
It might be messy. Raw. Confrontational.
But it’ll also be real. And that’s where the good shit happens.

Journal Prompts (for the brave):

  • What mask am I still wearing out of habit or fear?

  • Where am I pretending not to know the truth?

  • What would I aim for if I stopped trying to make it palatable?

This month?

You’re the wildfire and the compass.
Don’t waste time waiting for permission.
The mask is slipping. Let it.
The Tower is falling. Bless it.
The Whisper is speaking. Listen.

Jade
