Solar Flares & Moon Affairs: Why You’re Feeling Everything Right Now
How solar flares and a Libra Full Moon are shaking up your energy - and what to do about it
Hi friends,
Just popping in with a little cosmic update because...wow, the skies are LOUD right now. If the Sun had a mood ring, it’d be glowing chaotic neutral right now. And the Moon? She's in her balance-but-make-it-emotional era.
Let’s talk about what’s happening in the skies - and why your body, brain, and browser tabs are all running a little hot.
Solar Shenanigans Recap
On April 1, the Sun came in hot - literally - with an M5.6 solar flare from sunspot AR4046, directly facing Earth. It blasted out a loud 10 cm radio burst (the space weather equivalent of screaming into the void), giving us a dose of high-frequency chaos.
Then on April 8, solar wind speeds hit 623 km/s, stirring up minor geomagnetic storms. Earth’s magnetic field took a cosmic slap, your tech glitched, and your group text may or may not have imploded over nothing.
This is all part of the build-up to the Solar Cycle 25 peak, expected around July 2025. Basically, the Sun’s going through something - and we’re all feeling the side effects.
We’re Not Immune (And Neither Is Your Nervous System)
Solar flares and geomagnetic storms don’t just affect satellites and auroras - they hit us, too.
Common solar storm symptoms:
Head pressure or migraines
Sleep disruptions or super vivid dreams
Emotional spikes or full-on mood whiplash
Heart palpitations, anxiety, or sudden energy crashes
Intuitive downloads or feeling a little... floaty
Your body's not broken - it’s just processing space static.
Surviving (and Thriving) During Solar Drama
Here’s your solar storm survival kit:
🌱 Grounding
Barefoot on earth. Trees. Rocks. Dirt. Real world stuff to help your system reset.
💧 Hydration
Drink water like you’re sweating out secrets. Bonus points for adding minerals or electrolytes.
🛁 Salt Baths
Epsom salt + magnesium = nervous system chill mode activated.
📵 Unplug
Even an hour without screens helps. Your nervous system will thank you.
🧘♂️ Breathe + Rest
Naps are sacred. Breathwork is magic. You don’t have to be “productive” right now.
✍️ Journal What Comes Up
Solar flares can open intuitive floodgates. Don’t let the insights slip away.
Enter: The Libra Full Moon (April 12–13)
Just in case the Sun’s antics weren’t enough, the Libra Full Moon is rolling in this weekend with her velvet gloves and perfectly symmetrical emotional truths.
Libra asks us to rebalance, to come back into harmony - with ourselves, our relationships, and the chaos around us. This is the Moon of recalibration. Of choosing peace over performance. Of letting go of what doesn’t align.
Pair this moon with the solar storm energy and what do you get?
Emotional clarity rising through the static
Relationship shake-ups or revelations
A deep need for rest, ritual, and reflection
A cosmic invitation to choose grace over grind
If everything’s felt out of whack lately, this Full Moon is your gentle (and very aesthetically pleasing) reset button.
So, this is just a little reminder that the cosmos is loud right now. The Sun is storming. The Moon is peaking. And if your body is buzzing, your mind is a mess, your emotions are all over the place, or you can’t sleep or can’t stay awake, now you know why. It’s a lot.
But it’s also an opportunity.
To listen inward.
To recalibrate.
To unplug, reset, and realign.
Because you’re not just influenced by the stars.
You are stardust. And you’re allowed to rest when the universe gets loud.
All of this energy coming at us is actually lifting us up, upgrading us, readying us for what comes next. Let it do its thing.
Lots of water. Lots of rest.
And lots of love.
