You may have noticed that you are experiencing exhaustion or feeling drained, particularly in the summer. It’s as if the mood is sluggish, low-motivated, or just off, and there is no apparent reason behind it.
Astrology says this happens due to the planetary shifts that happen in summer, which are zapping your vibe.
So, what can one do about it? Here, before knowing the reason and solution for the same, we will discuss the four elements that are related to our zodiac signs, which have a great effect on our energy changes.
Let's watch out.
- If you have a sun sign of Aries, Leo, or Sagittarius, then you are a fire element.
- If you are a Taurus, Virgo, or Capricorn, then you are an earth element.
- If you are a Gemini, an Aquarius, or a Libra, you are an air sign.
- For Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces, your element is Water.
We discussed the elements because the elements play a major role in handling your heat, physically as well as energetically.
Why Summer Drains? The Facts That Astrology Tells
Summer is ruled by the sun, and the Sun governs energy, identity, and ego in astrology. Too much energy can cause imbalances if your energy doesn’t match well with the sun.
Fire Sign - You burn fast and bright. Summer heat can amplify your passion, and it can overheat your system. So, you will feel easily irritated, restless, and burned out.
Earth Sign - The people with the earth sign have grounded and steady energy. Summer’s chaos can dull your rhythm. You may feel overwhelmed, anxious, or like you're juggling too much.
Air Sign - You thrive in movement and don’t get controlled by the mental stimulation. However, the heat can dull your clarity, and you can feel unmotivated at times.
Water Signs - You feel deeply, and summer’s fire can prove to be emotionally invasive for you. You might feel emotionally drained, hypersensitive, and introverted at times.
Planetary Transits Which Intensify Summer’s Energy
Full Moons: Often, it brings emotional peaks. A summer full moon in emotional signs like Cancer or Pisces can affect their energy significantly.
New Moons: New Moons cause low energy, good for resting. If you are trying to stay productive, you will feel blocked.
Mercury Retrograde: Mercury retrograde causes communication issues and mental fatigue.
Some Effective Solutions For Balancing the Energy
1. Fire Signs
Fire signs must take cold showers, do swimming (if they know how), and journal to calm their inner fire. They must avoid commitment or promises during this time and must also avoid overloading on caffeine, which can heat up their aura more.
2. Earth Signs
Walk barefoot on the grass, which could prove to be the best therapy for them. The schedule must be simplified, and, their main focus should be on body care. They should avoid taking on others' stress as well and stop overplanning things.
3. Air Signs
The people with air signs must do breathwork, digital detox, and reading to overcome their body’s energy blockages. In addition, it could be a plus point if they avoid social media unnecessarily and overthinking.
4. Water Signs
The Water signs! Always stay hydrated, buddies! Take baths often, typically the sea salt baths if possible. Go to the creative outlets. These people must avoid doing emotional sponging and should not become isolated.
The Journal Prompt For You
Analyze what your body needs, what you need more of, or what your body must let go of to survive with the energy of the summer season. Just take 5 minutes to think about it and grab a journal to write about it. Let the answers come into your mind; those are your solutions!
Final Thoughts
Astrology reminds us that we are part of this nature, and when the sun burns bright, it is always okay to slow down and rest, and feel inwards. It must also be noted here that feeling intense is not bad but knowing how to convert that into your power is important.
Turn your elevation into something wise so that your energy always rises and proves good for others.
So, start listening to your body, stars, and spirits now!
Har Har Mahadev!
