What If Power Begins in the Pause?

This July, return to your rhythm—root down in stillness, rise with intention & clarity, and move at the pace that feels true to you.

Jul 01, 2025

Hi Soul Friend!

We’ve arrived at the midpoint of the year—a quiet checkpoint, a powerful threshold. July doesn’t ask us to start over, but to breathe with what has already taken root… and what still longs to bloom. Whether you’re reading this in the heat of summer or the stillness of winter across the globe, the invitation is the same: return to your rhythm. If life has felt fast or heavy, July offers a gentle space to pause, reflect, and realign with what brings you peace and purpose.

July 2025 | Chakra Alignment Through Lunar Energy

July offers the opportunity to reconnect with the strength beneath us and the fire within. As we move through the midpoint of the year, the lunar cycles provide natural moments to pause, realign, and move forward with deeper clarity.

The Full Buck Moon and the New Sturgeon Moon each bring their own wisdom, working with the Root Chakra and Solar Plexus Chakra, respectively. These energetic centers remind us that stability and confidence are not separate—they are deeply connected. One calls us back to stillness and presence, the other helps us rise with clarity and self-trust. July isn't about doing more; it's about returning to what steadies you and letting that quiet strength lead the way.

To support this energy, Grounded Reiki will offer guided Reiki meditations on all listening platforms for both moon phases. These sessions are designed to help you deepen your practice, clear energetic blocks, and realign with your own inner power—wherever you are, and whenever you need it

Full Buck Moon – July 10th | Grounding and Reflection
The Full Buck Moon on July 10th is the first full moon of summer and rises in Capricorn. Known for its steady and stabilizing energy, this moon invites you to look at your life’s foundation and honor what has been quietly keeping you grounded.
This is a time to work with the Root Chakra, focusing on safety, support, and what makes you feel secure in yourself and your space. The Full Buck Moon is a reminder that healing doesn’t always look like movement. Sometimes, it looks like deep stillness and trust in what you’ve already built.
New Sturgeon Moon – July 24th | Confidence and Inner Fire
The New Sturgeon Moon on July 24th arrives in Leo, bringing a fresh wave of energy centered on self-expression, courage, and heart-led action. This is a time to check in with how you show up in the world, and more importantly, how you show up for yourself.
Aligned with the Solar Plexus Chakra, this moon supports clarity, confidence, and intuitive leadership. Let this be a time to begin again, not from pressure, but from power. You are being called not to prove yourself, but to be yourself!

Reiki Without Borders

What began as local, in-person gatherings has blossomed into a global community rooted in energy healing, mindfulness, and intentional living. Grounded Reiki continues to grow—both online and in person—offering experiences that bring people together in healing, no matter where they are.

To support your journey, we now offer guided Reiki meditations and sound baths aligned with each New Moon and Full Moon. Each session is crafted with care and intention to meet you in your sacred space—on your time, in your rhythm.

You can listen anytime on:

We also invite you to join us for a live online Reiki Circle on Sunday morning, 9-10am EST, July 27th on our YouTube. This virtual gathering includes a self-guided Reiki practice and a distance healing session. No experience is required. Just bring your presence.

What You Can Focus On This Month!

Outside of our Reiki circles and online meditations, July invites intentional self-practice, simple moments that reconnect you with your energy. Here are a few ways to align with this month’s Root and Solar Plexus chakra themes:

• Create space for stillness: Sit or lie down with one hand over your heart and the other over your belly. Breathe deeply. If it feels supportive, revisit the Reiki Self-Healing Hand Positions & Precepts with 7-Chakra Crystal Sound Bath to help you reconnect with your energy centers. Ask yourself, “What part of me is still uncomfortable with ease?”

• Anchor your power: Take a quiet moment to get honest on the page and journal. What do you want this next half of the year to look like? What kind of change are you ready for? What are you being called to shift in your life or within yourself? Explore what these changes could mean for your future, not just in what you do but in how you feel and who you are becoming.

• Trust your body: Let your body speak what your mind may not yet know. Turn on a song that feels uplifting to you. Move your body, allowing energy to flow intuitively. Let the rhythm simply move through you, trying not to control it. Sway, stretch, or even bounce! Let your body lead. What movement feels like freedom right now? Where are you holding back?

What’s Ahead for Grounded Reiki

This season, we’re creating offerings that feel less like “doing more” and more like coming home to yourself. Think soul nourishment over self-improvement—experiences that honor your pace, your presence, and your path.

Coming Soon:

Whether you join us for every gathering or simply read these words quietly from afar—thank you! Your presence here matters. At Grounded Reiki, we believe healing doesn’t happen in isolation. It happens in shared space—in the quiet of community, in the power of intention, and in the moments we remember we’re not alone on the path. Thank you for your curiosity, your openness, and your willingness to grow and return to yourself again and again.

As we move through July, may you feel anchored in your foundation, courageous in your becoming, and clear in your next steps. This month isn’t asking you to rush forward—it’s offering you the space to listen deeply, move intentionally, and trust where you’re being led. Thank you for allowing us to be part of your journey!

Love and Healing,
The Grounded Reiki Team
