Why Am I So Sensitive Right Now?
How Cancer Season Activates Emotional Overload in the Body
Have you been feeling extra emotional lately? Crying more easily, absorbing other people’s moods, or feeling overstimulated by things that wouldn’t normally bother you? If so, you’re not alone — and you’re not broken. You’re just in Cancer season.
Cancer season spans from June 20 to July 22.
Cancer is ruled by the Moon, which governs emotions, intuition, and the invisible tides that move beneath the surface. During this time of year, those energies rise to the surface — not just mentally or emotionally, but physically as well. You may notice:
Tightness or tingling in your chest or throat
Sudden waves of tears or overwhelm
Feeling other people’s stress or sadness in your body
A heavy or foggy feeling in your energy field
Needing more rest, quiet, or comfort than usual
This sensitivity isn’t a weakness. It’s information. And if your body is sending you messages like these, Cancer season is inviting you to pause, soften, and feel what you’ve been storing.
🌊 Your Nervous System Is Listening
What most people don’t realize is that your emotional sensitivity is not just in your mind — it’s in your nervous system, your fascia, your breath, and your energy field. When your system is running in survival mode, even subtle emotional shifts can feel like a tidal wave.
That’s why you might be more reactive, irritable, weepy, or withdrawn during this season. Your body is processing months worth of stored emotion, and the increased lunar energy of Cancer season turns the volume up.
🌀 What to Do When It’s All Too Much
The natural response to heightened sensitivity is often to shut down or toughen up — but that only locks the emotion deeper into the tissues. What your body actually needs is a way to move those feelings through.
This is where body-based work becomes essential.
At Vibe Sanctuary, I offer a form of healing called Lumenipsa™ — a somatic and energetic method that works directly with the body and the energy field to help clear emotional residue, soften tension, and restore nervous system balance.
A Lumenipsa session can help you:
Release the emotional compression behind your muscle tension
Move through overstimulation with grounded support
Reconnect to your breath and inner rhythm
Recover from energetic burnout or emotional over-functioning
Feel lighter, calmer, and more centered in your own body
🌞 Sensitivity Is a Gift — But It Needs Maintenance
If you’re someone who feels deeply, cares deeply, and holds space for others often… Cancer season can feel like too much. You may find yourself longing to cry for no reason, craving alone time, or needing touch that soothes instead of stimulates.
This is your body asking for support. Not because something’s wrong — but because you’re finally clear enough to feel what’s been there all along.
💫 The Energy of the Year Moves in Cycles
Just like the zodiac wheel moves through 12 signs, your body and energy field go through seasonal cycles, too. Each season opens a different kind of emotional portal — and Cancer is the one that brings it all up to the surface.
This is one reason I recommend that clients receive 24 sessions per year — two per season — to stay balanced, emotionally regulated, and aligned with your body’s natural energy map. You can learn more about this rhythm through my work with the Lumenipsa Method.
Ready to Feel Better?
If you’ve been feeling heavy, overwhelmed, overstimulated, or stuck in your emotions — don’t wait for it to pass.
Come in. Lie down. Breathe. Let it move.
