Why spring can make your emotions feel stronger

Spring is more than a weather change—it’s an energetic shift. After months of holding it together through winter routines, many people start to feel what they’ve been pushing down. This season can act like an emotional “thaw,” bringing buried feelings to the surface.

• Your nervous system is adjusting. Seasonal light changes can impact sleep, mood, and stress levels.
• Life speeds up. Social plans, travel thoughts, and future goals start coming back online.
• Your heart wants honesty. Spring energy often reveals what you’ve outgrown—especially in relationships.
• You may be more intuitive. Many people feel more spiritually “open” this time of year.

Common signs you’re feeling a late-spring emotional shift

Emotional shifts don’t always look dramatic. Sometimes they feel subtle—but constant. You might notice:

• You cry more easily (even at random things)
• You feel nostalgic or keep thinking about the past
• You’re questioning your relationship or feeling more sensitive to your partner’s energy
• You feel restless, like something needs to change
• You feel lonely even around people
• Your dreams are vivid or emotionally intense

Why you may suddenly be thinking about your ex (or old relationships)

Late spring can bring a strong reflection cycle. You may find yourself replaying conversations, wondering what went wrong, or feeling a wave of longing. This doesn’t always mean you’re meant to go back—it may mean your heart is asking for closure, clarity, or emotional release.

Sometimes, when people feel emotionally “activated,” they start asking questions like: “Is my ex thinking about me?” or “Are we meant to reconnect?” If that’s you, a reading can help you understand what’s truly happening beneath the surface.

How spring energy affects relationships

Many people notice relationships feel more intense in late spring. You may crave deeper honesty, feel less patient with mixed signals, or finally see patterns you’ve been trying not to see.

• Emotional sensitivity: small things feel bigger than usual
• Truth-telling energy: you’re less willing to settle or ignore red flags
• Clarity moments: you suddenly know what you want (or what you don’t)
• Timing stress: you feel pressure to “figure it out” right now

Why your intuition may feel louder right now

If you’ve been picking up on people’s moods more strongly—or feeling like you just “know” things—your intuition may be turning up. Many clients tell us that spring and early summer are times when they:

• Sense distance in a relationship before it’s spoken
• Feel pulled toward a big life change
• Notice repeating signs, dreams, or synchronicities
• Feel emotionally “open” in a way that’s hard to explain

What to do when you feel emotionally overwhelmed

1) Name what you’re feeling (without judging it)

Try: “I feel tender.” “I feel scared.” “I feel uncertain.” Naming it helps your nervous system calm down.

2) Ground your body before you analyze

• Drink water
• Take a short walk
• Eat something nourishing
• Slow your breathing for 60 seconds

3) Ask: “What is this feeling asking me to pay attention to?”

Emotions often signal needs—safety, honesty, reassurance, connection, or closure.

4) Reduce emotional overload

If you’ve been doom-scrolling, overthinking, or checking someone’s social media, your emotions can spike fast. Give your mind fewer places to spiral.

When your emotions might be a sign you need guidance

• You feel anxious about your relationship and can’t tell what’s real versus fear
• You’re getting mixed signals and don’t know what to do next
• You keep repeating the same relationship pattern
• You feel spiritually “open” and want to understand what you’re sensing
• You’re at a crossroads and want honest insight without pressure
