AKASHIC RECORDS FOR JULY 2012
~Channeler: Jen Eramith

What energy and experiences can we expect this month?

The universal energy this month moves really fast. This month looks
shorter energetically than it appears on the calendar. There is a feeling
that everything speeds up, and how you respond to that will determine how
things go in your life during the month of July.

You can think of the energy this month like a Ferris Wheel. It will go up
and down several times throughout the month. If you get caught up in the
rush of energy, this Ferris Wheel will go up and down so often that you will
feel as if you are on a rollercoaster. It might feel scary, you might feel out
of control, you may feel rushed, ungrounded, and make a lot of mistakes.
Or if you decide to sit back and enjoy the view and take it easy this month,
then you can actually slow time. You can slow the way this energy rushes
through your life and make this a more enjoyable ride so that you can use
those ups and downs to get a better view and to get more things done in
your life, rather than just trying to survive them as they spin you around.

The key to succeeding this month will be to choose to slow down, choose to
take each activity more slowly, to take a breath as you go along. Choose
to resist the urge to rush or to follow the pace of those around you. Take
things in your own time. Ask for extra time to finish things at your own
pace. We are not saying that you should rest or avoid engaging -- in fact,
the only way to get through this month will be to stay engaged and stay
productive and keep doing things. But do them slower. Watch your pacing.
This is not about avoiding or checking out. This is about being engaged at a
pace that works well for you to find your rhythm and stay with it. That will
be the key to succeeding and thriving during the month of July 2012.

What specific things can we do to find the greatest benefit this
month?

This is a month when meditation will serve you very well. Meditation is
always beneficial, but there are some times when it is more needed. There
are some times when it is important to really attend to your practice and
this is one of them. It would be fine if during this month, your meditation
practice takes the shape of simply taking a walk for twenty minutes every
day. The important thing is that during your walk you be alone and quiet.
Do not take your phone with you or listen to music. It is a time for you to
clear your mind. It is a time for you to let things slow down, to stop having
input and allow your brain to actually process information for a while.

In the same way, it will serve you to avoid too much input this month. This
is a good time to take a break from the news or take a break from surfing
the Internet or listening to music. It is fine to engage in those things, but
consider reducing the time you spend with them. This is an important time
to slow your mind. That cannot happen if you have constant input. This
is a really excellent time to go sit outside in your yard and listen to the
birds rather than looking on Facebook or checking the news. Anything that
helps you slow down and be more centered – to allow your own thoughts to
develop rather than reacting to the thoughts of others – will serve you. That
is the most beneficial thing you can do to really benefit from the energy this
month.

The up and down motion of the energy this month can offer great benefit
if you will slow down. Just like on a Ferris Wheel, if you stay on for a few
cycles, you come to understand the landscape better. Use this time to go up
and see the big picture, see your whole life from a bigger perspective. See
where you have been, where you are going and how it all connects together.
As you ride down you see things in more detail. When the details arise, you
can be productive, get lost in a few activities, and really move forward with
them. Then you pull up to the higher perspective and see the big picture all
over again.

So it is a wonderful time to integrate your life, bringing the details into
better alignment with the big picture. Use the big picture to feed, foster,
and inspire the details. If you take that ride at your own pace, moving up
and down, looking at the big picture, then coming back down to the details,
you will find this is a month where you can really weave your life together
in a new way. You can find a deeper meaning in everything and help all
of your activities and relationships come into alignment with your overall
priorities. But that will only work if you give yourself the time and space to
meditate -- if you give yourself the quiet in your mind and the slow pace to
process what you need and to really take advantage of both of those points
of view. If you are rushing, then you will spend this month reacting to one
thing after another, eventually exhausted.
