July 2025 Energy Forecast: Gui Wei — Reflection & Returning to Your True Self

Welcome to the energies of July 2025—an enigmatic and powerful month shaped by the pillar of Gui Wei (癸未). If there’s one word to sum up this month? Paradoxical. It’s one of those energies that whispers, “Let’s go deep,” while dangling a mirage in front of your eyes. Confusing? A little. Powerful? Absolutely.
Let’s explore more.
Gui Wei: The Most Yin Pillar & The Spiritual Paradox
Gui Wei is possibly the most yin of all pillars. With Gui (癸)—the Yin Water stem—floating above the Wei (未) Earth branch, it creates an energy that is deeply spiritual, sensitive, and reflective. It simply means this month is energetically more subtle, more internal, and more attuned to spiritual whispers – but on the other hand - can be a little psychotic too.
Visually, this is the image of a cloud above a dry desert. Normally, a cloud wouldn’t form in such harsh, arid conditions. But this time, it does—like a quiet miracle. And what happens when a cloud appears in the desert. A mirage. An illusion caused by extreme heat, bending light and tricking our eyes. A reflection, but not reality.

Reflection or Illusion? This Month Asks You to Look Deeper
This is not a month to take everything at face value. What you see may not be what it is. Whether in your personal life, your career, or even in your identity—this is the time to reflect:
Are you truly being authentic?
Or are you projecting an image that conforms to others’ expectations?
Is that “opportunity” real, or is it just a reflection that looks real?
Authenticity vs Conformity
This month challenges us to distinguish real growth from performative progress. Gui Wei teaches us that wisdom doesn't grow in shallow ground. It grows when we stop looking for answers in everyone else's path—and start planting our own seeds of purpose.
When we rely on the external—what others are doing, what society expects—we follow shadows. But when we choose to listen to our gut, anchor into our own journey, discover our purpose through our path and build value from within
The Shadow Side: Sensitivity, Projection & Conflict
However, of course there’s the other side of things. Let’s not sugarcoat it. With such a sensitive energy, we’re more likely to see:
Autonomy issues: people copying others, blindly following trends, or clinging to groupthink.
Disagreements & arguments: when authenticity threatens conformity, tensions rise.
Projections: wounded people projecting their insecurities onto others.
Poor decision-making: decisions made from emotional volatility rather than wisdom.
And in extreme cases? Scams, illusions, manipulation—people selling the “image” instead of the real values.
Grounding, Awareness & Practical Wisdom
With all this yin, it’s easy to drift off into lala-land. So what’s the remedy?
BE HUMAN.
Come back to your 5 senses. Breathe. Cook. Walk barefoot. Talk to a real human. Pet a cat. Touch a tree. Do anything that reminds your nervous system, “I’m here. I’m alive. I’m safe.”
This month is testing your:
Gut instinct
Emotional clarity
Groundedness
Authenticity
If you can hold steady and choose presence over projection, you’ll find real wisdom in your reflection. And more importantly, you’ll reconnect with the most valuable GPS you have—yourself.
July Action Tips:
Don’t make big decisions when emotional—wait until the fog clears.
Be wary of scams or too-good-to-be-true offers.
Spend time journaling, meditating, or working with coaches/mentors who help you reconnect to your truth.
Avoid groupthink—if you feel the urge to blindly follow the crowd, pause and ask: Is this me or just a pattern?
Use your 5 senses to anchor yourself: sound baths (silence and less), grounding yoga (slow movements), aromatherapy (earthy and herbaceous) , warm meals (warm gut), or mindful movement.
July 2025’s Gui Wei energy doesn’t come to scare you. It comes to wake you up. To help you see through illusions, drop the masks, and return to the wisdom of your path. It’s less about doing more—and more about seeing clearer. This is your reminder to be wise, be still, and be YOU.
