We’re entering a pivotal week that bridges the emotional waters of July and the empowered momentum of August. The 5 of Diamonds governs this week, asking us to check in with our shifting values, finances, freedom, and emotional security. This energy nudges us to reassess what we truly value—not just in the material sense, but in relationships, time, and energy.
🌀 Retrograde Season Reminder: With 4 planets in retrograde, and Chiron we’re in a cosmic season of deep reflection, healing, and course correction. Expect internal shifts before external ones. The red cards this week support heart-first introspection and realignment.
🗓️ Breakdown of the Week:
🌟 Monday (July 28)King of Hearts + 8 Energy Day
Emotional mastery meets personal power. This is a powerful day to take responsibility for your emotional state, especially in leadership or family dynamics. The 8 energy wants us to step into alignment—not through force, but inner authority. Watch for old patterns resurfacing to test your growth.
💗 Midweek Vibes (July 30–31)
We’re still in the Hearts suit through the end of July, supported by the 7 energy month and ending with the 10 of Hearts + 11/2 Energy Day.
This is a beautiful time to celebrate emotional growth, community, and spiritual connection. You may feel more sensitive or introspective—don’t fight it. Use this time to let go, forgive, and soften where needed.
🌑 Friday, August 1
We enter August in an 8 energy month with a Queen of Diamonds + 9 Day. This is a sacred moment to initiate a new chapter in self-worth, finances, and the way we nurture our purpose. The Queen of Diamonds brings wisdom through experience—especially around boundaries, leadership, and legacy.
💎 Weekend Energy (August 3)
We close the week with a 10 of Diamonds, a card of prosperity and visibility—but only if we’ve done the inner work. If this week felt intense, know that you’re clearing space for something greater. Let August be the time where your values align with your vision.
🔁 Reflective Journal Prompts:
- What values are shifting for me right now?
- Where am I still seeking emotional validation outside of myself?
- What do I need to release to feel freer in August?
Let the retrogrades guide you back to yourself. Don’t rush forward—refine, reflect, and reclaim.
