At this full moon, we take time to luxuriate in our abundant material riches – in alignment with our hearts riches. As we look back on this year – at the barren landscape that lay behind us – in our hearts we know something has ended. A shift has taken place within that is unfolding in our outer reality. We are transitioning from the old to the new in some way. It’s helpful to acknowledge where we’ve been, as a kind of closing, as we move into the new year. There’s lots to come in 2026!

Every so often I’m wowed by the tarot and this is one of those times. For those who were wondering, I pull a tarot card at random, and yet with intention, around the new and full moons – they’re significant times. Out of the 78 card deck, I pulled the LOVERS card….again. So as with the last “new” moon, the focus for this full moon is on the integration of our whole selves. It’s the union of all parts of ourselves that make us who we are. From this place of union is where we make our choices. Around the full moon, things can get real clear. Emotions and insight come to the surface. Now’s a good time to see what parts of ourselves are in right relations, and examine our choices around relationships with ourselves and others.

The Lovers tarot card presents itself for this new moon. This card is about the union of all parts yourself and embracing the whole. From a balanced and centered space in yourself is where you want to come from in making your choices moving forward. It matters. It really matters. Your choices are what’s creating your new unfolding identity.

At this full moon the Queen of Cups tarot card appears. Our deepest emotions are being illuminated with the fullness of the moon. We are being shown a clear self-reflection.

How does that look and feel?

By being receptive to our internal state we can feel how best to respond, from our intuitive knowing place rather than from our rational mind attempting to “figure it all out”.

At this new moon The Fool tarot card reveals itself. We are in the process of birthing our new earth alongside a new consciousness for humanity, and it starts in our bodies. Allow yourself to be filled with abundance, peace and whatever you’ve been working to manifest in your life moving forward, regardless of the outer chaos.

You’re finalizing the details as you take a big leap into the unknown, and there’s momentum behind you urging you on – creation is ready to serve you.

The 5 of SWORDS tarot card is front and centre for this full moon. Now is the time we’re consciously releasing the old paradigm patterning that does not serve us as a collective. Many of us are still in defeatist thinking – feeling battered – yet in this we are also in the process of preparing to pick up our sword of internal power.

First is surrendering to what is. What low level and/or loveless forms of communication have you outgrown? Once you see it for what it is, only then can you move into something more in alignment with your authentic self. It begins, most importantly, with how you communicate with those closest to you. As you create yourself anew, how do you envision communicating with your most intimate ones in a genuine and loving way?

With this new moon upon us the “Fortune” tarot card shows up. We’re on the spoke of the wheel relating to a massive revolution in consciousness. It’s a circular process with twists and turns along the way.

We’re being asked to evolve interpersonally – to integrate our masculine (cognitive) and feminine (intuitive) aspects of ourselves. We need to come back into balance. It is in this state of being that our pot of gold can be found.

The Empress is the tarot card coming through for the upcoming full moon. At this time you’re committing to be one with your soul – authentically you – and be attuned to your self, coming from a place of love in your heart.

Slowing down, nurturing, making space for, caring for a loved one – be it human, animal, and/or plant. You’re putting all of yourself in.

As you tune into your authentic self, you know who you ought to be and what you need. So be it.

The Ace of Wands is a fire-y card with an electric feeling tone. The card literally jumped out of the tarot deck for this new moon and just so, as herein lies the beginning of all creation. Using the energy of the sun, we are being asked to create as if we have a wand in hand. Feel your internal fire rising up within that’s yearning for some kind of renewal or shift. It’s a reminder that we have the ability to bring in the new in alignment with mother nature – and it happens one day at a time.

Full Moon in July 2025

The tarot card reflection for this full moon is the Three of Disks. It’s about earthly matters at this time and being in nature allows you to quiet the chaos and feel the new shift that’s occurring inside yourself. It’s right in alignment with the massive shift occurring on earth and the renewed earth starts with us in our physical bodies. It’s about coming into your heart and coming from a place of love and compassion as a frequency that propels you forward into action in whatever way you’re being called.
