Chances are you are feeling quite out of place in current times, and as March 5th approaches things are only going to become worse.

As you may know, March 5th will mark the beginning of the first Mercury retrograde of the year and the day after Uranus will enter Taurus for the first time in 84-years! This will be an emotional time for everyone and will mark the beginning of some major life changed for a lot of people. And because tons of people are terrified of change, preparing for this is important. Below you will find a list of things you can do to prepare yourself for the energy that is well on its way and rushing all around us.

5 Ways to Prepare Yourself For The Peak of This Energetic Shift:

1. Meditate

Meditation is one of the best ways to prepare for an energetic shift. Meditate as much as you possibly can. I would suggest at least twice a day if not more. Clear your own energies frequently and really make sure nothing negative is making its way in.

2. Listen to your intuition

Your intuition is not going to steer you in the wrong direction. If it is telling you something listen to it, and please pay close attention.

3. Be more open to change

Don’t allow yourself to be closed off from change. Practice open-mindedness and be more open to what is to come. Change is not something to fear.

4. Focus on your health

Take care of your body as well as your soul. Your body is important too! Get the right amount of sleep and eat healthily.

5. Make yourself more aware of the energies at hand

Be aware of what is happening. Don’t let this energy hit you full force out of nowhere. Connect with the Universe and make yourself more in-tune.

A strong sense of mental balance is going to come from all of this. Do not be afraid. This energy will pass with time, it is not going to break you. Spend as much time as you can on self-care and remember that your mind is just as important as the rest of you.

Can you feel the energy coming from this shift already? I know I can and it is quite intense. This tension is only going to be building until after March 5th, do not let it overwhelm you during peak and really take this time to utilize what is being given to you.
