Feng Shui astrology is based on the Chinese calendar. The dates of the beginning and the end of the months are different from those generally accepted in the Gregorian calendar. According to the Chinese calendar, the year’s fourth month starts on July 7th and ends on August 7th. Therefore, all the recommendations given in this article will be accurate until August 7th.

Feng Shui astrology believes that each month has its unique energy and character. Therefore, each month’s energy is expressed through one of the 12 Zodiac animals and connected to one of the five elements.

July 2022 is the month of the Fire Goat. In this article, I will share what kind of energy and events to expect in July 2022 and how to properly choose dates for different events.

Feng Shui Astrology for July 2022

The Energy of the Month of the Fire Goat

According to the Chinese calendar, July 2022 is ruled by the Fire Goat.

In Chinese mythology, the Fire Goat is an image of red-hot embers crackling merrily on the fire. Under the influence of July’s energies, people may have an increased desire to be the center of attention at any cost. This tendency may make them more artistic, charismatic, overly emotional, excitable, and even irritable. People can also lie more often and embellish their own achievements.

So, the month promises to be quite hot, both literally and figuratively. Hot and dry weather often drives people crazy, so if you feel emotional tension, try to be more patient and practice mindfulness. Don’t react to possible conflict or problems immediately. Take your time to calm down and cool off first. Also, try to avoid being in the sun too much this month. It may increase the Fire element which could bring more emotional intensity to your life. This month, it is especially beneficial to spend time close to the water – by the lakes, rivers, or ocean. Even swimming in the pool can help to cool down the excessive Fire element.

Southeast is the most dangerous direction for traveling this month. This recommendation only applies to long-distance trips. It is ok to take a walk or move around the city or close to it in the Southeast direction.

Auspicious Days In July 2022

July 13th and 25th are good dates for starting long-term affairs. The projects started on this date do not promise rapid development, but they will bring stable, reliable results. However, these dates are not suitable for those born in the year of the Rooster.

July 15th is a good date for official openings, signing deals or contracts, making agreements, and purchasing a property. However, this date is not suitable for those born in the year of the Boar.

Days With a Higher Risk of Getting Viruses And Other Contagious Diseases

July 14th and 26th – during these dates, it’s easier to get a disease. Therefore, make sure you’re being extra cautious these days, as there is an increased risk of getting infections and viruses!

Inauspicious Days In July 2022

July 11th, 18th, 23th, 30th, and August 4th are unfavorable dates to start important things. They bring difficulties, obstacles, and problems.

July 16th and 28th are not suitable dates for a lot of activity, organizing important events, or starting medical treatment. But you can use these dates to complete old cases.

August 6th is “Exhausting Day”. The energy potential of this day is very weak. Therefore, try to avoid any big activity on this day.

Feng Shui Astrology For July 2022: Check Out Your Bagua Sectors

If you are new to Bagua, make sure to read my articles:

The Feng Shui Bagua Map: How to Use It?

According to Feng Shui astrology, each of the nine sectors of your house is influenced by a certain type of energy. This energy changes from month to month, from year to year. In this particular article, I will not be talking about the annual chart but focusing on the energy influence of the month.

Now let me share with you Feng Shui Astrology for July 2022!

Center

The central part of the house brings wealth luck, good fortune, and intellectual prowess in July. Activate your luck by placing the Jade Emperor Windchime here. However, the overriding annual chi of the 5 Yellow obstructs good luck and can cause health problems. Therefore, make sure you protect yourself by placing the Supremacy of Heaven Plate, the Heart Sutra Pagoda, and the Wu Lou with Joyous Cranes here.

Northwest

The Northwest sector brings accidents, violence, risk of money loss, and betrayals this month. At work, office politics can become a problem if your office is located in the Northwest corner. Be careful of the people you are working with this month. To suppress the negative influence of this sector, place the Anti-Robbery Plaque here and carry the Kuan Kung on Horseback Anti-Betrayal Amulet.

West

Feng Shui Astrology for July 2022 promises a prosperous month to the residents of the West sector and those whose front door is facing the West. To activate prosperity energy in your house, display the 100 Blessings Energetic Deer in this sector. However, remember to protect your West sector from the annual Loss Star by displaying the Anti-Robbery Plaque here.

Northeast

Feng Shui astrology for July 2022 promises good fortune, commercial success, wealth, promotion, and career luck to those residing in the Northeast rooms. Activate your success luck by displaying the Completion Horse in this sector. If you play in the stock market or take any kind of gamble, display the Wealth Lock Mini Plaque in the Northeast corner of your office or in the Northeast sector of your house (or living room).

South

Feng Shui astrology for July 2022 promises an excellent month to those residing in the South rooms and whose houses are facing the South direction. You will have career advancement and leadership luck this month. To activate the lucky energies of this sector, display the New Victory Banner here.

North

The North sector gets afflicted by the Illness Star, sapping the energy of those who reside here. If your bedroom is located in this sector, make sure you display the Wu Lou by your bedside and carry the Stay Healthy Amulet at all times. Pregnant women should consider moving to another bedroom this month.

Southwest

Feng Shui Astrology for July 2022 promises a quarrelsome month to those residing in the Southwest rooms or whose houses are facing Southwest. The energy of this sector brings conflicts, gossip, arguments, and even legal entanglements. To neutralize the quarrelsome energies, display the Magical Cosmic Apple here. Also, remove anything that makes too much noise from this sector (windchimes, TV, stereo, etc.).

East

The East is favorable for studying and writing this month. This sector can also help attract noble people, patrons, and mentors. Also, it can attract investors to your business. If you have an office in this sector, it may bring you promotion luck. To activate your success luck, display Feng Shui Dragon Carp with 3-Legged Toad Mini Plaque in the East sector of your house.

However, if your bedroom is located here, there is a possibility of romantic scandals caused by the presence of a third party and emotional stress due to relationship problems. To protect your relationship, display the Marriage Lock in the East sector of your house.

Southeast

The Southeast part of your house is a very dangerous area this month! If you and your family spend lots of time here, you will find everyone becoming stressed and short-tempered this month. It also increases the likelihood of sickness, accidents, and misfortune. Try to avoid spending time in this area if possible. To suppress the misfortune energies, display the Heart Sutra Pagoda and Wealth Lock Mini Plaque here.

Feng Shui Astrology For July 2022: Bonus Tip

For sectors of the home where good energy resides, it is excellent to activate with plenty of noisy activity. Have the radio, TV, or fan placed here to churn up the energy so there is a good level of noise. Also, it is very favorable to install brighter lights in these sectors. Moving the energy in these ways will encourage yang chi to manifest to your advantage.

Every year between June 20 and June 21, the Earth tilts its closest to the Sun, marking the first day of summer and the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere. Summer solstice 2022 will happen on Tuesday, June 21, 2022, at 5:14 a.m. EDT. On the day of the summer solstice, the solar energy increases, as well as the power of rituals, mantras, and meditations performed on this day. This is a great day to celebrate and honor Surya, the Sun.

In this article, I will share with you the meaning behind the summer solstice and the spiritual practices and rituals you can perform on this powerful day!

Summer Solstice In Vedic Astrology

In Vedic astrology, the period from the summer solstice to the winter solstice is called dakshinayana. Thus the summer solstice is the first day of dakshinayana. According to the Puranas, Dakshinayana marks the period when the Gods and Goddesses are in their celestial sleep. This is the time when the Sun begins to trace a southward movement in the Earth’s sky in the northern hemisphere of the planet.

Dakshinayana is significant in the life of anyone who is involved in any kind of spiritual practice. If you perform practices dedicated to honoring Surya, the Sun, on the summer solstice, you can significantly improve your life in different areas.

Summer Solstice 2022

In general, the summer solstice is considered to be a good time for new beginnings. However, this year’s summer solstice is happening under the influence of the strong energies of the retrograde planets. At the time of the summer solstice in 2022, Saturn and Mercury will already be in a retrograde state. Therefore, the energy of the summer solstice 2022 may make us work on our karmic debts and old unfinished business.

The day of the summer solstice is a very powerful period when you can manifest your intentions.

If you want to improve your finances, then make donations and get involved in charity acts on the day of the summer solstice. Such acts will contribute to your good karma, remove your karmic debts, and make room in your karma for prosperity and abundance.

If you want to improve your romantic life, then do something pleasant for a man (if you’re a woman) or for a woman (if you are a man). If you’re single, buy a gift for your father (if you are a woman) or your mother (if you are a man), say something nice to a male colleague (if you are a woman) or a female colleague (if you are a man). If you are married but desire to improve the relationship with your spouse, be especially gentle, nice, and kind with him/her; take him/her out for a date, or have a romantic dinner at home together.

If you want to improve your health, then before eating something on the day of the summer solstice, be sure to say this affirmation: “This food nourishes my body and spirit, restores my strength, and heals me.”

Things to Do On Summer Solstice

These simple tips will help you to harmonize the energy of the Sun and get the most out of this powerful day:

• Get up during the Brahma Muhurta time and greet the Sun by performing Surya Namaskar.
• Spend time outdoors: have a picnic or just a walk in the park.
• Decorate the house with summer flowers in yellow-orange-red colors, arrange vases with fruit, candles, etc.
• It is very beneficial to do gardening on this day, but do not overdo it and take time to relax.
• Take a dip in the ocean, lake, or river — it will strengthen your connection with nature.
• Meditate and perform some breathing exercises (pranayama).
• Set your goals and intentions for the year and write them down in your planner.

Practices, Rituals, and Mantras

Reconnecting With Nature

As I have already said, on the day of the summer solstice, it is important to feel your unity with nature. For doing this, you can do a barefoot walk, for example. And you may also want to perform the practice that is called “Reconnecting with nature”. It’s best to be performed outdoor somewhere in nature. But if you don’t have the opportunity to practice it someplace in nature, you can perform it in your backyard, patio, or even inside.

This practice will be especially beneficial for those who:

• have circulatory problems, eating disorders, or joint problems;
• feel unstable and insecure in your life;
• lack balance between work and personal life;
• often experience dizziness;
• experience fears or phobias.

Instructions:

• Take a few deep breaths and slow exhalations, close your eyes.
• Imagine that you are in a cave. Look around and find a way out. Go outside the cave – you are in a beautiful green forest. You can hear the sound of a stream, the rustle of leaves, and the birds singing. Under your feet, you can see stairs leading down into the Earth. Go down these steps, don’t be afraid.
• As you descend deeper, you can hear the steady heartbeat of the Earth. Adjust your heartbeat to the natural beat. Feel the relaxation, the lightness.
• You have descended to the very heart of the Earth. Lie down directly on the ground, feel with your back and palms how Nature is happy to meet you, feel how it fills you in with its healing energy and power. Feel the care, support, and protection of Nature.
• Let the planet feel your love. Be grateful for this invisible care and support.
• Now stand up, climb the stairs to the cave, take a deep breath, and open your eyes.

Ritual “Reconnecting With The Sun”

1. Stand facing East. Look in the direction where the reborn Sun rises.
2. Say your gratitude to the Sun for all the good things in your life and ask for guidance and assistance in the future.
3. Visualize your future as you would like it to be. Listen to yourself. What do you feel? Immerse yourself in your feelings. Let the sun recharge you and fill you with its energy.

Abundance Meditation

1. Make yourself comfortable: lie down or sit down in a meditative posture.
2. Close your eyes, take a few deep breaths, and slow exhalations. As you inhale, imagine how the solar energy of golden color enters your Solar Plexus (Manipura chakra) along with the air.
3. When you feel the heat in your Solar Plexus, mentally say the words: “I feel the power of sunlight in me. I am one with the energy of the Universal abundance. I attract prosperity and embrace abundance in my life. So it is!”
4. Feel how the energy of the Sun is circulating inside you and how its heat spreads from Manipura chakra and fills your entire body.
5. Say your gratitude to the Universe for everything it gives you, for the abundant life, and limitless opportunities. Smile and open your eyes.

Mantras

To harmonize the energy of the Sun on the day of the summer solstice, you can use the Surya mantra. It is best to recite this mantra at dawn, noon, or sunset 2, 9, 27, or 108 times. It’s recommended to light a candle while reciting the mantra, it will symbolize solar energy.

Before reciting the mantra, mentally formulate your intention, which you direct to Surya (this is the name of the Sun in the Vedic tradition). For example, you may say: “I dedicate reciting of this mantra to the materialization of my intention to become successful and prosperous”.

This is one of the most powerful Surya mantras:

Om Hrim Sum Suryaya Namah

The Bottom Line

Use the summer solstice to gather your best friends and get outside if you can. This is the time when we all need to celebrate life and express our gratitude to Mother Earth. Think of the sun as a life force, and use the longest day of the year as an excuse to soak up as much of it as you can.

The Full Moon rises on Tuesday, June 14th, 2022. According to Jyotish (Vedic astrology), it occurs in the sign of Scorpio. In this article, I will share everything you need to know about the full moon in Scorpio and give some tips on how to make this time balanced and smooth.

When Is The Full Moon In Scorpio?

The full moon in Scorpio will occur on Tuesday morning, June 14th, 2022, at 7:52 a.m. EDT. For the best view of the full moon, look towards the southeast on the evening of Tuesday, June 14th, just after sunset. There, it will appear large and golden-hued.

The Full Moon In Scorpio

During the full moon period, we are most affected by the constellation in which the moon resides. The full moon in June fills our minds with the energies of the Scorpio constellation.

The full moon in Scorpio is not a good position for the Moon, as it makes our feelings and emotions very unbalanced.

This full moon has a strong influence on our subconscious and increases anxiety and suspicion. Scorpio is ruled by Mars, which makes people react sharply and unpredictably to unpleasant words and encourages them to sort things out. At this time, it is especially important to control your temper and not allow yourself harsh expressions, criticism, or sarcastic remarks about others.

Try not to drive a car on the day of the full moon. Also, refrain from drinking alcohol on this day.

The full moon in Scorpio opens up opportunities for us to begin internal transformation and liberation from our karma. At this time, it is especially beneficial to perform aura cleansing, to get rid of anything useless, and to clear our space from toxic people. After the full moon, on June 15th, it is recommended to declutter the house and clean the energy of your home.

The lesson of the full moon in Scorpio is facing our fears and overcoming them. It’s time to pay attention to our fears and realize the core of the essence. Life circumstances will unfold in the way so that we will have to pay attention to those areas of life in which our biggest fears are accumulated. Whether we are ready or not, the moon in Scorpio will force us to face our fears. If you can take a conscious look at your fears, you will have a great opportunity to overcome them through mindfulness and deep meditation. Use this powerful time for your personal transformation and spiritual growth.

The Full Moon In Jyeshtha Nakshatra

According to Vedic astrology, this full moon takes place in the lunar mansion of Jyeshtha Nakshatra. Let’s take a closer look at this lunar mansion and what kind of energy it represents.

Jyeshtha Nakshatra has a combative nature due to its occupation of Mars-ruled Scorpio. During this full moon, under the influence of Jyeshtha, we may notice that people will be appearing outwardly accommodating yet prone to bouts of irritability or competitiveness. Many will become hot-tempered.

Jyeshtha may bring sorrow or financial instability but it may also give us the power to resist oppressive or overwhelming forces.

Health-related Issues

Jyeshtha nakshatra may cause health problems related to colon, womb, ovaries, genitals, anus, tongue, and neck.

How to Work With the Full Moon Energy?

If we do not live in the rhythm of the lunar cycle, we most likely will feel mood swings and fatigue during the full moon time. Moreover, our emotional and even physical condition may deteriorate. Therefore, it is very important to learn to live in harmony with the Moon, especially when it’s at the peak of its activity.

Spend this time during the Full Moon doing some introspective work. Don’t let your energy run rampant with trying to make things happen. Time spent in silence, prayer, and meditation will be karmically rewarded. No matter what’s happening around you, stay calm, grounded, and centered.

In order to harmonize the influence of the Moon on our lives, we can perform Moon practices and adjust our lifestyle to the Moon’s vibrations.

Spiritual Practices For the Full Moon

#1: Filling Up With Lunar Energy

This practice is especially recommended for those who have mood swings and unbalanced emotions.

Instructions:

1. Place a glass of clean water on the windowsill (or next to the window) so that the moonlight reflects in it. Leave it there for the night.
2. In the morning, drink that Moon water on an empty stomach. Tell your gratitude to the Moon. Chant the Moon mantra: OM CHANDRAYA NAMAHA (108 times).

#2: Full Moon Mantra Chanting For Attracting Abundance

During the Full Moon, go outside (backyard or patio), and stretch your hands up to the Moon. When looking at the Full Moon, set your intention to attract abundance into your life and repeat the following mantra for 12 minutes: OM SHRAAM SHREEM SHRAUM SAH CHANDRAMASE NAMAHA

#3: Chanting SHRIM Mantra

SHRIM is the mantra of beauty, love, and delight. This is the mantra of Lakshmi, the goddess of abundance, wealth, and beauty. Chanting this mantra helps to expand the sense of beauty, and attract love and abundance.

The Bottom Line

The full moon in Scorpio teaches us to adapt to new circumstances and unexpected situations that come into our lives. Many people are afraid of anything new and, therefore, this full moon may cause severe anxiety for many. However, our lesson is to learn to face our fears and overcome them. Use this full moon period as an opportunity for overcoming your fears, balancing your emotions, letting go of what no longer serves you, and becoming the better version of yourself. Use this powerful time that can serve your personal evolution and spiritual growth.
