Coming to the hard facts, women have reported bleeding twice in the mentioned time frame, having heavier or lighter bleeds than usual, or, missing their period all together. Lily describes this as a “physical collective recalibration of women” of sorts: “Our menstrual blood is encoded with information and telepathy, which is why when women cohabitate together, their periods sync up.” And this is where the Astrology comes in. She explains that the month of June is ruled by Gemini, an air sign. Between June and July, a transition takes place to the water sign of Cancer. She sees this as a dissolution of air energy, to water energy, which in a worldly sense, she describes as women going through a paradigm shift. In the past few years there has been a heightened emphasis on women tapping into their ‘masculine’ energy, which places a heavy emphasis on thinking through the logical mind, and often, just that. The transition from air to water, coupled with the external stimuli mentioned above, she believes, is creating a dissolution of this fresh tradition, paving the path to the heart – which is the feeling centre of the body as women get in touch with their womb, sensations and emotions.
