emerged last night was the importance of<strong>gratitude</strong> for what we have in the present, while <strong>remaining open</strong> to the <strong>abundance yet to come</strong>.</p><p>We also

represents <em><strong>Fullness, Abundance and Intuition</strong></em> and we will be marking it with our<strong> seasonal empowerment circle.</strong> </p><p>Together we will celebrate the energy of fullness and welcome in the element of water (and emotion) to dampen down the fire  of summer. </p><p>All crossover seasons (<em>Imbolc, Beltane, Lammas and Samhain</em>) are transitional and they show up within our 7-year personal growth cycles. </p><p>I have been in my personal<strong> Lammas</strong> season for most of 2026 and it has certainly been a crossover phase I am ready for the <strong>wisdom of autumn</strong> (and refinement) to fall upon me in early 2027. </p><p></p><p>Would you like to know more about your 7-year personal growth cycle and which  season you are personally in? You can purchase a copy of The Genius Wheel here with discount code FRIENDS25. </p><p>Become a paid subscriber to join our exclusive Lammas Empowerment Circle on Monday, 3rd August at 8.15pm GMT! Expect an activating meditation, oracle cards and journaling tools. The link is below. </p><p></p>

And within that life, we move through distinct phases or chapters that shape who we become. In <em>The Genius Wheel&#174;</em>, I describe these as 7-year cycles: periods of growth, challenge, integration, and renewal.</p><p>So when Uranus shifts signs, astrologers interpret it as a collective turning point ie. a change in energy, focus, and direction.</p><p>The last time Uranus was in Gemini was between 1941 and 1949, overlapping with World War II.</p><p>That era saw enormous shifts:</p><ul><li><p>Women entering the workforce in unprecedented numbers</p></li><li><p>Rapid advances in technology and communication</p></li><li><p>New systems of production and global connection</p></li></ul><p>And now, as Uranus returns to Gemini, we&#8217;re once again in a period defined by:</p><ul><li><p>Explosive technological change (hello AI)</p></li><li><p>A dramatic need to for more women in positions of leadership</p></li><li><p>A reimagining of how we connect and create</p></li></ul><p>History doesn&#8217;t repeat exactly&#8212;but it does echo.</p><div

</p><p>Many say they are<strong> anti-war or anti-conflict,</strong> yet feed the algorithm or conversations about who is right/wrong and to blame.</p><p>When we see deeply dividing figures in the world, we&#8217;re also seeing <strong>a mirror<br>of how the ego operates</strong> within us.
