The Beauty of Breakthroughs

29 JUNE - 5 JULY 2025

I must start this week's update with a huge - Thank you. Truly — Thank you.

The response to my recent personal post has been overwhelming in the most beautiful way. From emails to messages, comments to quiet prayers, I’ve read every word — and my heart is so full it brings tears to my eyes. While I haven’t been able to respond to everyone individually, please know how deeply grateful I am. Your love, kindness, and support have held me in ways I didn’t know I needed. I feel incredibly blessed.

This chapter I’m in, it’s not what I expected. It feels like a spiritual rebirth I didn’t see coming, but clearly my soul did. Healing, I’m learning, isn’t linear. It’s a spiral. It asks us to meet ourselves again and again, layer by layer, moment by moment. To surrender — fully, gently, honestly. And some days, that’s easier said than done.

Yet something is shifting. It feels like a veil is lifting like I’m seeing the world  and myself with new eyes. And even in the discomfort, I’m grateful. For the cracking open. For the lessons. For deep remembering. It feels raw, unfiltered, and deeply revealing,  is stretching me in every direction. What I thought was a temporary breakdown is starting to look more like a long-overdue initiation. A stripping back. A rebirth into a version of myself that no longer bends for the world, but listens to my own rhythm.

Over the past weeks, I’ve been learning that: Burnout isn’t weakness — it’s wisdom, unheeded for too long. Nervous system collapse isn’t failure — it’s your soul demanding a new pace. Disconnection isn’t our fault — it’s the cost of surviving in a system that rewards performance over presence.

The deeper I go, the more I see how many of us are living in these same patterns and calling them normal. But they’re not. 

Caffeine to wake up.

Sugar to push through.

Alcohol to wind down.

Screens to numb.

Supplements to patch the damage.

And all the while, pretending it’s “normal life.”

But it’s not. It's high-functioning burnout. It’s nervous system depletion with a smile on top. It’s emotional suppression dressed up as busy. It’s a soul silently screaming, “I can’t live like this forever. I know because I lived it. I pushed through exhaustion.I fasted, trained, worked, parented, performed. I ran on coffee and adrenaline… and I crashed. Hard. And in the rubble, I heard the truth: This isn't living. This is coping, this is not even survival.

I know I walk a path that will always help me to help others who seek my guidance so I feel obliged to share with you what’s becoming very clear hopefully like me, you may make some changes if needed so you don't end up on the floor like I did and if you do you know what to do to stand up and make sure you never fall again. 

What’s truly needed now?

• A slowing down

• Listening to the body

• Reclaiming nourishment

• Relearning rest

• Walking away from what drains

• Moving toward what restores 

• Nature

And..this week’s astrology reflects exactly that, of course!!! 

This week we walk into the energy of breaking open old templates and the invitation into a freer,

more authentic way of being.

Energetic Themes: Liberation, Lightness & Seeing Through the Fog

This week brings a shift in tempo and frequency. There’s a feeling of breaking out of a cage, especially emotional or energetic cages we didn’t even realize we were still in. Expect unexpected insights, awakenings, and a desire to reconnect with pleasure, freedom, and soul-aligned relationships. The cosmos is calling for freedom through truth and beauty through authenticity — and this energy may feel electric, emotional, or even disorienting at first.

Astrology Insights

July 4

A shake-up in love, money, values, and beauty. This is the end of a cycle — at 29° Taurus — and the cosmic equivalent of a lightbulb moment in relationships or self-worth. You may suddenly see what’s no longer aligned, or feel an urge to radically change how you relate, spend, dress, or love.

Keywords:

• Emotional liberation

• Sudden clarity

• Redefining what truly matters

Watch for: breakthroughs in relationships, identity shifts, artistic awakenings, changes in finances or appearance.

July 5

From earthy and sensual Taurus to airy, curious Gemini — Venus lightens up. Expect more social, flirty, communicative energy in your relationships and creativity. You may crave variety, mental stimulation, and meaningful conversation more than deep intensity.

Keywords:

• Expressing affection through words

• Mental chemistry > physical

• Creative play and social fun

• Let yourself explore — variety is nourishing right now.

July 6

This is a softening and a dissolving. Neptune going retrograde can feel like a fog lifting, especially around illusions, false hopes, or escapist tendencies. What we see now may not be what we want to see, but it brings us back to soul truth.

Keywords:

• Reality checks in spiritual/creative/emotional areas

• Heightened sensitivity

• Clarifying your dreams vs distractions

• Ideal for spiritual resets, creative redirection, and seeing where we’ve been under a spell — within ourselves or others.

Energy Feels for the Week Ahead

• Revelation + Reassessment: You may feel jolted into clarity early in the week, followed by the need to pause, reflect, and readjust your path.

• Playfulness Returns: It invites curiosity, lightness, and levity after weeks of emotional depth and physical heaviness.

• Inner Compass Realignment: be mindful of where you’ve over-idealized or disconnected — and come back to your real, grounded truth.

Ritual Ideas for this Week

• Write a love letter to your future self — post-breakthrough, post-realignment.

• Declutter your beauty or money rituals — what no longer aligns?

• Spend time in water (ocean, bath, rain) — let it mirror your emotional flow and clear what’s ready to dissolve.

Journal Prompts

1. What area of my life is craving more authenticity and freedom?

2. Where have I clung to comfort out of fear of change?

3. What illusions am I ready to release in love, creativity, or identity?

✨ Affirmation of the Week

"I release what no longer reflects my truth. I choose freedom, authenticity, and alignment with my soul’s rhythm."

This is a powerful time — not because it’s easy, but because it’s honest.

The veils are lifting. The masks are falling. And what’s left is something real. You may feel tender. You may feel raw. You may also feel strangely free. You may feel lighter. Let that be enough for now. You don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need to keep showing up gently, bravely, and imperfectly for yourself.

This week just Honor what’s shifting Nourish what’s rising Trust what’s dissolving Let the rebirth happen without rushing it. Let the new rhythm find you. Let the softness lead.

I see you. You’re not alone. We're remembering together and yes I will keep channeling and writing at this time as trust me it helps me as much as it helps you.

Lots of love,

Sarah
