When impacted by influential energy shifts, you may feel out of sorts or feel a brief disconnect until an adjustment to the energy is complete. Neither the impact nor the adjustment period is the same for everyone although it’s the same energy. This also applies to energy sensitives though the reason for the different experiences is understood.
If you are unaware of being an energy sensitive, on top of feeling out of whack, you may feel confused, uneasy and/or a little fearful about what you are experiencing. There are also those, sensitive or not, who may be unphased by the shifting energy. For example, I have Mercury in my astrological chart so I am not impacted when it goes retrograde as others may be. Some impactful shifts include:
Universal Year #
Full & New Moons
Solstice & Equinox
Portals & Gateways
Eclipses
Meteor Showers
Planetary Phases

The solstice and equinox are astrological events that occur twice a year. On the solstices, the sun is located the furthest north or south from the equator while on the equinoxes the sun is located directly above the equator creating an almost balanced day and night.
Spring Equinox
Spring is a time of renewal, change and growth. As the days become longer take notice of how your energy increases with the prevalent sun. The potential exists for creativity, inspiration, empowerment and enlightenment. Use this time to move forward and take steps toward achieving your goals.
Summer Solstice
The longest day of the year marks the beginning of summer. This is a time for self-reflection. Taking an honest look, asking the questions and learning the lessons. The power lies with the individual in this vibrant energy. The creative and profitable connections made can be helpful and if the lessons learned, sustainable. Greet the sun with a celebration of life and love.
Autumn Equinox
Autumn is a time of transformation, reassessment and release. The potential exists to find middle ground resolutions for existing tension and division. Letting go can be difficult and sometimes painful; however, it can be what opens you to possibilities ahead. During this time, make healing a priority.
Winter Solstice
As winter begins, the absence of the Sun is prevalent. It take conscious effort not to allow the changes of the season… diminished daylight and colder weather to decrease your energy level. Use this time to recharge and energize yourself through reflection, healing and hope.
Energy encountered can be knowingly or unknowingly accepted or rejected.
Blessings of Love & Light,
