So, you’re a sensitive soul? If you’re not sure, you can read more about ‘sensitive’ people here, to see if you identify with any of the common characteristics:
One thing that sensitive souls will be noticing right now is how all of this astrological shift and change can affect us. What makes us sensitive – that ability to feel and sense energies and information that might not be so readily apparent to others – is also the thing that can make us more vulnerable to astrological and energetic phenomena. We are more influenced by the energetic shifts and changes, and can be affected in a number of ways, not all of them pleasant.
We may experience a sudden draining of our energy, feel heavy and fatigued, or ache as though we are coming down with the flu. We may find that we feel depressed or anxious for no reason, or that our sleep patterns are disrupted. We may feel unbalanced, not quite in our body, suffer from headaches or fuzzy thinking, or be irrational, teary, angry or upset – once again with no apparent cause. We may become highly over-sensitive – to foods, people, weather, noise and light.
It will always pass. But when you feel this way, check things out. Is there something happening with the planets or sun? Are we experiencing geological shifts within our own planet? Are you in close proximity to a lot of electromagnetic energy?
What to do when you’re affected:
If you’re feeling light, vague, airy, disconnected, anxious, fretful or scattered then do what you can to ground:
- favour foods that are dense; such as grains, root vegetables, dairy, meat and eggs
- eat larger portions, less often (no less than three meals a day though!)
- take a powdered magnesium supplement
- avoid sugar and stimulants such as caffeine
- spend time in nature – sit, stand or lie on the ground, barefoot if possible
- rest
- avoid crowds, wind, lots of noise, and places that are busy or frenzied
- choose and wear or hold grounding crystals such as jasper, garnet, hematite, pyrite, howlite, bloodstone, sodalite, dessert rose, tourmaline, tiger eye or tiger iron

If you’re feeling exhausted, angry, disoriented, achy, drained, depressed and flat you need to raise your vibration. Things that help with this include:
- eating a predominantly plant based diet, and eating lightly and often
- consume fresh juices that favour a combination of fruits and vegetables (at room temperature)
- get moving – some yoga, tai chi, qigung or walking will help
- rest
- drink plenty of water and herbal teas
- take a powdered magnesium supplement
- keep warm, or find ways to generate warmth within your body
- avoid cold foods, including ice-cream, dairy and cold milks such as soy
- avoid the news, and things/people/places that are likely to upset or depress you
- favour crystals that uplift our energy, such as rose quartz, amethyst, smoky quartz, clear quartz, citrine, agates, jade, aventurine, fluorite, carnelian and amber
