EASING
SPRING SEASONAL SHIFT
By Rev. Dr. Psychic Cynthia Killion
03-16-2024
Here
in the Northern Hemisphere, we are currently in a time of dynamic seasonal shift, passing from the end of Winter into the
beginning of Spring. This transformation is represented astrologically by the transition from the sun in watery Pisces moving
towards the sun in fiery Aries….
As winter
ends and spring begins to emerge, this is a time of shifting from the heavy, withering energies of late winter into the lighter
and more uplifting energies of spring. During this transitional phase, we move through stagnation and heaviness back
towards movement and momentum again.
And yet,
we are not quite there yet, as up until the Equinox (and even for a little while afterwards) we will continue to teeter on
the cusp between these two energies, riding out this time of seasonal shift, going back and forth between the contrasting
sense of contraction versus expansion, stagnation versus renewal….
This
time of seasonal shift can be hard, as many of us are still shedding the heavy emotional cloak of winter, and may need to
go through a continued process of cleansing, healing, and releasing for a little while longer yet….and yet, re-emergence
is just around the corner, with the coming of the Spring Equinox, and we can feel it in soul, even if our bodies and minds
are not quite there yet.
With this seasonal shift occurring,
you may have noticed a shift within yourself too. It is not unusual at all to feel a bit more moody, introspective, emotionally
tender or sensitive as winter shifts to spring. In fact, you might have even noticed a flair-up of feelings of
depression, hopelessness, or discouragement in the last few weeks.
Even
though a part of you is filled with hope or optimism for the future, during this time of shifting to spring, you may also
feel weighed down with sorrow or regrets about the past, or overcome with self-judgment or self-criticism, or just weighed
down with a general sense of emotional malaise.
You may find that you bounce back and
forth right now between contrasting emotions and feelings, first being filled with a sense of hope and positive expectancy
for the future, and then having the opposite experience of feeling doubt or despair, or just being overcome with RESTLESSNESS
and impatience---
It is as if spring cannot come fast
enough, as if CHANGE cannot come fast enough, and you are wondering WHEN will spring finally come…and more to the point,
when will your energy, focus and motivation finally return, when will your heart and spirit jump and sing back to life again?
Have faith, it will come.
As sure as day follows night, Spring follows Winter.
With each passing day, the light will continue to increase, the plants
and animals will awaken from their slumber, and begin to sing, leap, and scamper around, and you too will soon find yourself
re-emerging and coming back to life again as well.
In the meantime,
know that any temporary melancholy or discouragement that you experience at this time need not have a grip on you. Nor do
you have to be kept down by the increased emotional and psychic sensitivity that often comes with this change of seasons…
That is, if you are willing to lean into your emotions and sensitivities, listen to what your heart is telling you,
and learn to recognize the difference between your insecurities and your intuitions.
