0:00

So tell me something are you ready to take on

0:02

July with the inner power of feng shui and astrology

0:05

? I know kind of sounds like a very hefty

0:07

statement , right ? Yeah , yeah , yeah

0:09

, i've been having some fun with titles , but what I really

0:11

want to say to you is after June's

0:13

fast pace , is this

0:16

month of July going to be a reprieve , an

0:18

extension of what was , or

0:20

something entirely new to

0:22

deal with ? Well , my

0:24

friend , it all depends on what you're

0:26

looking for . I just

0:28

want to give people a place to go to

0:31

get information . I want

0:33

them to enjoy learning

0:35

about chi and how it's easy to

0:37

learn about it and affect change in your own life

0:39

. So chi pro is here

0:41

for the curious seekers and for

0:44

the professionals looking to get ahead . It's

0:46

about mind . I want to empower people with

0:48

information , because the

0:50

one thing that can't be taken from you is your knowledge

0:52

. July

0:55

is going to pull from you in a way that may be

0:57

disconcerting at first , okay , but

0:59

it sure will be revealing once you

1:01

succumb to it . So I kind of need you to

1:03

lean in . I need you to believe me

1:05

now and hear me later . Now

1:08

, if we get techy just for a second , july

1:10

is something called ji wei . Ji

1:12

is ye , an earth , wei is goat . So

1:15

for any of you out there that are into metaphysics , you

1:17

know those two words right there . I've

1:19

just described a lot of earth . Now

1:22

, sometimes that can be very overwhelming and I

1:25

will warn about being buried and all this stuff

1:27

. This is different . This

1:29

is a yin type of earth , but

1:31

I will say that the goat is something

1:33

we call a storage animal , so it hides

1:35

things . It's like a treasure chest and

1:38

that's where we're going to go this month . Where

1:41

June was all go , go , go , go , go go , july

1:44

is surprisingly different because it's

1:46

a more inward , thought provoking

1:48

yin month . And don't get me wrong

1:50

, do not get me wrong You

1:52

won't be sitting idly twiddling your thumbs

1:54

. The world is still turning at

1:56

record speed . What's changing

1:58

this month ? is you Like

2:01

that hauntingly epic song by Phil Collins

2:04

, which I absolutely love ? I

2:06

can feel it coming in the air

2:09

tonight . Now , what exactly

2:11

is coming in the air ? Self-awareness

2:15

, purpose , intention

2:18

, you , the

2:20

restlessness you felt has all been

2:22

to disrupt old patterns and push you

2:24

into new ones . The

2:26

way you've been doing things is not how

2:29

you'll do them in the future . And we're amidst

2:31

the shuffle of it all right now . It's kind of

2:33

been shuffling all year actually , because it's

2:35

that kind of year , but now we've crested

2:38

halfway through the year and we've got a goat

2:40

. Here . We're in the thick of it . So

2:42

how do we handle this ? I mean , it's kind

2:44

of like a lot of stuff is changing and shifting

2:46

and shuffling . Well , we embrace

2:49

it and we go with the flow of what

2:51

could be . Now

2:53

, my close friends know that I'm a big

2:55

lover of that sentence right there and I've learned

2:57

that in the last few years , and my favourite

2:59

little two words is

3:01

what if ? because I

3:03

learned to turn it from a fear to

3:06

a wonderful dream and

3:08

glorious expectation of what

3:10

if ? What if it all works out great , because

3:13

we naturally go to oh well , what

3:15

if it goes wrong ? What if I lose

3:17

that ? What if that person doesn't like me ? What

3:20

if I can't buy that house ? What if I can't get that job

3:22

? Well , you know what

3:24

? What if that person doesn't like you because

3:26

you're not supposed to hang out with them ? What

3:28

if you don't get that job because there's a better one out there

3:30

? What if you don't buy that house ? because

3:32

you know what , in a few months you're going to be a better house

3:34

you can buy . There is so much

3:36

we can explore with the what , if , and that's

3:39

what I want you to explore this month . In

3:41

a world of negative undercurrents , you have

3:43

the opportunity to dream big with incredible

3:46

follow through . Now , my 2023

3:49

mantra that was to stay

3:51

in your lane has always been to get

3:53

you here and beyond by being

3:55

you and to lessen the effect

3:57

the unpredictable world has

3:59

on you . You see , the world

4:01

will do what it does . You cannot

4:03

affect change there , but you can

4:06

affect change in you . Now

4:08

there's specific actions you can take . In

4:10

fact , there's one thing you can do this month that's really

4:13

going to change everything . What is it

4:15

? Honor your truth

4:17

And , yes , i'm aware I've been touching

4:19

on this all year . Here's

4:22

the funny thing , though , when I was thinking

4:24

about this , they say honesty

4:26

is the best policy . Hmm

4:28

, i say be careful with that . Think

4:31

about when someone asks you that proverbial question

4:33

Oh , does this dress make

4:36

my butt look big ? Yep

4:38

, there's a trap if ever , i saw one , right

4:40

. How do you answer that ? If

4:42

you're completely honest , i should say you're going to possibly

4:44

be in trouble because it might make the butt look big

4:46

, but you don't have to say it like that , right ? What

4:49

I want you to do is keep pulling out your innermost

4:52

thoughts , your innermost desires . We've

4:54

been working on it all year and it's

4:56

cresting now . So to move forward

4:59

and into the direction you want , you

5:01

need to be honest with what you want to achieve . Now

5:03

I've had a few interesting conversations with people

5:05

and I've said to them well , what do you want ? And

5:08

they kind of get annoyed like , are you keep asking me that I don't

5:10

know what I want ? I'm gonna keep

5:12

asking it until you do . Great

5:14

friend , that just prods me all the time . Why

5:17

, why , why , why . And

5:19

I tell you , when he says it I want to punch him , but

5:22

it's perfect , because when he does it it makes

5:25

me think well , why , why does that hurt

5:27

? Why do I turn away from

5:29

that confrontation ? Why do I get

5:32

sad when I think about that person ? Well , because

5:34

there's stuff I need to do . There's stuff I need to

5:37

evolve , grow , take care of , be

5:39

accountable for all sorts of things . And

5:41

it's the same with you . July

5:44

will poke and prod you to lay your cards

5:46

on the table . So let it . Do

5:48

not fight this . There's

5:51

a great book I just read I think it was Sarah Polly

5:53

and it was run toward . I think it was run toward

5:55

the pain , something like that , and it was to do with

5:57

concussions and stuff . And

5:59

it was to do with going against the

6:02

grain of oh , when you have a concussion , just lie

6:04

perfectly still and quiet and dark and did it . And

6:06

she had this experimental stuff

6:09

where she ran towards it when the doctor said look

6:11

, when that comes up , face it

6:13

full on and run into it , because we it's

6:15

like a blockage and you've got to crest it

6:17

, you've got to climb it . I'm asking you

6:20

to do the same . This isn't a

6:22

make it or break it moment . It's a creating

6:24

purposeful moves moment

6:26

. If you don't know where you're headed

6:28

, the most up-to-date , brilliant

6:31

GPS won't know how to

6:33

configure your route to get

6:35

you there . Okay , it just can't . If you don't know where

6:37

you're going , if you can't put a destination

6:39

in , you can have a spinning wheel

6:41

on your dashboard . Right , it's all about

6:43

you , baby , all about you . Now

6:47

, if I've talked about best actions , what

6:49

are the things that maybe you shouldn't do ? and

6:51

I'm not a fan of shouldn't , but what should you ? you know , what's

6:53

good to avoid is , put it that way . Well

6:55

, dare I say , answering the question about the dress

6:57

, i would avoid that one of all costs . Alright

7:00

, cheeky me aside , what

7:02

you actually need to avoid is the word

7:05

avoid . This

7:07

is not the month to hide from

7:10

your dreams , crush your ideas

7:12

or turn away from your innermost thoughts

7:14

. If something pokes

7:16

you and it's painful , and when you think about

7:18

it you're sad , you're angry , you're thoughtful , i

7:20

want you to look at it . I

7:23

want you to approach it because there's

7:25

something there and chances are it's been holding you back

7:27

, because every time it comes up , because

7:29

it's painful , you turn away from it . Right

7:31

, you turn away from it . Don't

7:33

look at it , understand

7:36

what it is , break it down into manageable

7:38

chunks and deal with it . You

7:41

will then crest over it . What

7:43

you think matters , and what you think

7:45

is what you become . I believe it's that

7:47

great quote from Bruce Lee about

7:50

be careful what you say to yourself

7:52

. Your body is listening . I

7:54

love that , and I've had

7:56

to learn this myself . I realized when

7:59

I was having some moments that weren't so great , i

8:02

was allowing myself to say things about myself

8:04

, and then I noticed each day it was

8:06

getting worse and worse , and you can't

8:08

pretend nothing's wrong . I don't want

8:10

you to do that , but once I started

8:12

addressing some of those pain points and

8:14

then started talking to myself differently

8:17

, talking to myself like I would talk to

8:19

a friend . I would never talk to a friend the

8:21

way I've talked to myself , and I bet you do the

8:23

same thing . I would never say some of the

8:25

things I've said to myself . Once

8:27

I did that , once I turned it around , I thought , oh , what would

8:29

I say to someone , to Sam , if she was my best

8:32

friend sitting next to me ? My

8:34

conversation with myself changed

8:36

, and I want yours to change

8:38

as well , because what you think matters and

8:40

what you think is what you become . Don't forget

8:42

that . You know this . Every

8:45

coach , guru , strategist is shouting

8:47

this from the rooftops And if you've turned

8:49

your head away from their shout , i

8:52

need you to do a Bonnie Tyler and turn

8:54

around . If you're looking to upscale your

8:56

world in July , it's actually

8:58

easier than you think . July

9:00

has great potential if you confidently

9:03

step forward to embrace and own your position

9:05

. But you can see , to do that sentence

9:07

that I've just said , you've got to have done the other work I've

9:09

just talked about . So that's why it's

9:11

a bit of a yin month . That's why it's a thought-provoking

9:14

month . Right , it's not actually easy

9:16

, it's not for the faint of heart , but , oh

9:19

my God , your growth could be amazing . This month

9:21

, i encourage grounding techniques

9:23

that help you feel connected , empowered

9:25

and focused . Now , a great one that

9:28

I love to do , and you might like it as

9:30

well , is to take your shoes and socks

9:32

off obviously in a safe environment and

9:35

walk on the grass and just literally

9:37

ground yourself , touch the ground . We

9:40

forget we're so . Oh

9:43

, it's so easy to not be

9:45

close to earth anymore , to

9:48

not just walk barefoot on

9:50

a beach , on the grass , in the mud . You

9:52

know , we just forget that , and

9:54

it's so important . It's how we actually ground . I

9:56

think there's actually scientific fact out there

9:58

that I'm sure someone could teach me , but I don't

10:01

know it . But it makes total sense to me . All

10:03

right , it's a really good thing to do , because

10:05

sometimes by standing still , you

10:08

make better moves forward . One

10:10

of my favorite mantras well , it's quote

10:12

, really , but is from Lao Tzu

10:15

knowing others is intelligence

10:17

, knowing yourself is true wisdom

10:19

, Mastering others is

10:21

strength , mastering

10:23

yourself is true power . That's

10:26

what this Earth month is all about . That's

10:28

what July is all about self

10:30

mastery , wisdom and power

10:33

a match made in heaven . Alrighty

10:36

, we've been a bit heavy here , so let's switch gears

10:38

and go into some functuary and then we're

10:40

going to dive into some astrology . All right , so

10:43

you know me , i know there's a lot of directions

10:45

in your home , lots of rooms in your home , but I like to give

10:47

you two good ones to use lots

10:49

and two to kind of avoid . So

10:51

here we go . The first one that I want you to use

10:54

as much as you can is the south

10:56

area of your space . Now

10:58

, when I say space , it could be home , business , store

11:00

, any number of things . The south

11:02

is an awesome area for launching new ideas

11:04

, concepts , partnerships , especially

11:07

those involving money . It

11:09

has like a new love

11:11

to it . It has like a brand new

11:13

wow , something's just beginning and there's great potential

11:16

for it . So it's right there in the south . Interestingly

11:18

enough , the second area is the north

11:20

, where the south is all about the beginning

11:23

aspect . The north is

11:25

all about the completion and bringing it home

11:27

, so it's an excellent area for sealing

11:30

financial deals and celebrations . Now

11:32

, it's not all about money , it

11:34

isn't , but these two have a high

11:36

degree of prosperity in them , and prosperous

11:39

energy often is financial as well

11:41

, but it's happiness too . It's good deals

11:43

, it's good collaborations . So

11:46

, if we balance this out , we've had two really good

11:48

ones . Which are the ones that aren't so good

11:50

? Well , the southeast

11:52

is the first one . So arguments

11:55

and fractured communications rule

11:57

here . So keep that temper in check and be

11:59

super patient . So remember areas

12:02

, just figure out basically

12:04

where northeast , southwest is in your home

12:06

and then you'll figure out the other areas too , and

12:08

just you know . Basically use

12:11

the rooms more or less depending on what I'm sharing here

12:13

. Northwest is the second one that's

12:15

not so good . Again , it's to do with miscommunication

12:18

. This one's also blockages and it's definitely

12:21

a no go for any renovations . So

12:23

I would avoid this area as much as you can . Now

12:26

, if this is your bedroom or your kitchen , you cannot avoid

12:28

it , but you're sure as heck could not

12:30

have a major discussion . That's

12:32

really important there , right ? and

12:34

if you're gonna do a renovation , you're waiting to do something

12:37

and it's the northwest . Just put it off for another

12:39

month . Heaven , it's like 30 days or

12:41

whatever . It's nothing . So

12:43

remember you can't always use the rooms

12:45

as I'm , the areas as I'm explaining

12:47

, but just be aware that that's the type

12:49

of energy , because , remember , feng shui

12:51

is energy . Wi-fi . You cannot

12:53

see it , you cannot touch it . Even

12:56

I can't see it , but I'm able to work

12:58

it out the code the DNA code of

13:00

where it is , and the Wi-Fi will affect

13:02

you . so always go where the Wi-Fi

13:04

is strong and don't hang out

13:06

. Why the why ? where the Wi-Fi is weak ? right , i

13:09

tell you . What I do find interesting about this month , though , is

13:12

that everything I just shared with you are opposites

13:14

. The good ones are north and south , and

13:17

the not so good ones are southeast and northwest

13:19

, so I was

13:21

trying to work out why that caught my eye , because I always

13:23

pay attention when something captures my eye . This

13:26

one's interesting . I'm not a hundred

13:28

percent sure , but these are direct clashes

13:30

. When they're opposite , the clash , which means change

13:32

. So , even though this is a yin

13:34

month and I'm saying we're gonna go in , we're

13:37

gonna see some big stuff out there this month

13:39

. It's quite interesting . So

13:42

, overall , though , communicate wisely and

13:44

think before you speak this month . Okay

13:46

, no matter what area you're in , it's just gonna be a

13:48

good thing to go with . Okay

13:51

, let's move into astrology and have a look . So

13:53

if you don't know your astrology chart , just

13:55

go to cheaprosamcom , click on the calculators

13:58

and you'll be able to put in your birthday

14:00

and it will tell you what your birth

14:02

chart is . It's going to give you a little

14:04

picture that's all colorful and it has

14:06

these boxes and the top row of boxes

14:08

are elements like fire and wood

14:10

and stuff like that . The bottom boxes

14:13

are going to have animals in them . That's all

14:15

you need to have . Okay , you need to know what

14:17

the animals are for this , the

14:19

elements I use in the cheek cast video forecast

14:21

system . But for here we're talking

14:23

about the animals , alright , so let's jump to it . So

14:26

have a look at your birth chart . Do

14:29

you have an ox in your birth chart ? okay

14:32

, if you do , this is a direct clash for you , because

14:34

the goat and the ox are opposite each other in the 12

14:36

animals system cycle . But

14:39

don't be afraid , it just means you know . Clash

14:41

means change . The only

14:44

problem that comes forward with this is when

14:46

you will not change , when you refuse

14:48

to change you , you can't . When a clash comes

14:50

forward , something's changing . Now it

14:52

will mean different things if it's in the year , month

14:55

, day or hour , because they all

14:57

represent different parts of your life and

14:59

different timings in your life . But basically

15:01

, change is coming . So what's good is once

15:04

you see clearly what is before you . If

15:06

you take the time this month to go in and

15:08

look at stuff . You'll probably see there's

15:10

a change that you actually want to make , but

15:12

you were too scared . Well , if you've got an

15:14

ox in your chart , this is your time to

15:16

make the change , because you're going with

15:18

the flow of the month and you'll be more empowered

15:20

to make the right decision . But

15:23

there is a challenge for you , though , as well . Sorry

15:26

, but the ox . You have two things happening

15:28

for you this month . It's another interaction

15:30

and this one's about habits . So

15:33

I want you to be careful you don't back yourself into

15:35

a corner with an . I've

15:38

always done it that way because if you do

15:40

, you'll get what you've always gotten

15:42

. So be aware of that . So go

15:44

for change . Understand that how

15:46

you've done it isn't necessarily the

15:48

way you can do it in the future and it's not necessarily

15:51

the right way . You're going to have to change

15:53

something Now . Do you have a

15:55

rat in your birth chart ? Always

15:58

an interesting time when a harm pops up , and that's what comes

16:00

forward with the rat . Don't worry

16:02

about the word harm . It's a big

16:04

umbrella , okay , but this one may

16:06

go a little slightly deep into your

16:08

innermost self , but it could also be a physical

16:11

issue . So there's two things happening here . I think

16:13

it's more psychological and going in

16:15

and possibly feeling a bit bad about

16:17

yourself or questioning or doubting

16:19

and all those things , and I kind of want you

16:21

to look at it . But please

16:23

don't stay there and just start picking a scab

16:25

. Find out what it is that's bothering

16:28

you , bring it to the surface and deal

16:30

with it . And , for the physical

16:32

aspect of the whole thing , just be mindful of where

16:34

you are okay and don't overdo things . Easy

16:37

, easy , easy , easy . Awareness is

16:39

always key . It's when you don't know the things

16:41

I share with you that you can get caught out and

16:43

have a problem . Now , do you have

16:45

a dog in your birth chart ? Okay

16:48

, if you do , you need to be mindful of getting in your

16:50

own way . Seriously , you

16:52

are going to get in your own way this month because

16:54

you're going to stick to old , worn out habits that

16:56

no longer support your purpose . It's

16:59

a little bit like what the ox is . I'm just saying

17:01

for the ox about . You

17:03

know , you've always done it that way . That's the whole

17:05

thing . Is it really

17:07

working for you ? Can

17:10

you look me in the eye and

17:12

tell me that the way

17:14

you've been doing it is working , or

17:17

is there room for improvement

17:19

? By the way , the answer

17:21

is there's room for improvement . So

17:23

please look at things a different way . Look

17:26

at what you could change , what you could update

17:28

. Okay , last but not

17:30

least , do you have a horse in your birth chart

17:32

? and I'm doing a little dance . Jig over here because I do

17:34

. This is great , because this is a

17:36

combination . This is like friends

17:38

. The goat and the horse are friends through thick

17:40

and thin . They just really like each other . So

17:43

it's a month of collaborations and assistance

17:45

. You can connect with the people you need

17:48

and you will get where you want to go . Yep

17:50

, when this one comes forward , it's lovely

17:52

. So it's not really a month to be shy , but

17:55

it is a month to try to connect with people

17:57

because it will naturally complete . So

17:59

you can't sit at home just waiting for the phone to call

18:01

. Pick up the phone and reach out to those other

18:03

people . Now I've explained

18:06

in this podcast here that we've

18:08

crested the halfway point in

18:10

the year . We've passed the longest day and we're

18:12

walking a new path . Now

18:15

some will lament the gradual movement towards shorter

18:17

days , while others understand the power

18:19

that comes from this minute shift . Be

18:22

the latter and embrace your

18:24

innermost thoughts and desires . Once

18:27

you do , you'll be open to receive

18:29

what's truly meant for you , even

18:31

if it's only a faint sound , you

18:34

are wise to follow your innermost

18:36

whisper . Okay

18:39

, so the reason I'm kind

18:41

of putting all this down here for you is

18:43

think of it

18:45

like an operating system for your computer

18:47

. Right , the updates come out

18:49

randomly and you , you do the

18:51

whole thing and this whole new system downloads

18:53

into your computer where things are improved , and

18:55

sometimes there's glitches . I get that , but

18:58

every now and then your operating system

19:00

has to update . Well , in

19:02

2024 , our operating system

19:04

updates . So what's happening

19:06

right now is you're kind of doing the

19:09

housework , you're doing the pre-work

19:11

, so that this update can download

19:13

and have and cleanly and have

19:15

space . You can't . I

19:18

mean , you've probably faced this where you've had an old computer

19:20

and it's gone to do an update and it's like , oh

19:22

, failed , you don't have enough space . I had it on my

19:24

phone once . I'm like what ? but it was a very

19:26

small phone , you know , and I was like , oh

19:28

my god , i had to go buy a new phone because it couldn't

19:31

handle the update . This

19:33

is the same with you and I . If

19:35

we're holding on to everything

19:37

that we've gotten to this point in our lives

19:39

, we can't be , we

19:41

can't make room for new things coming now

19:44

. I'm not saying throw things away , i'm

19:46

just saying tidy things up , compartmentalize

19:49

, clean up , organize . That's

19:51

what you're doing this year and that's what

19:53

you're doing this month , and some stuff

19:55

does need to be thrown away . It's

19:58

done all right . On

20:00

that note , i'm gonna say have a brilliant

20:03

July , enjoy

20:05

discovering yourself , because

20:07

what you're gonna see is a

20:10

whole bunch of you that you never

20:12

knew was there and , trust me

20:14

, you are amazing

20:16

.
