Understanding Energetic Upgrades and the Shift from Solar Plexus to Heart
Lately, I’ve been hearing the same thing from clients and friends and feeling it in my system too. Strange waves of sensation. Flashes of heat or pressure along the spine. Vivid dreams, bursts of emotion followed by clarity. “Random” or unexpected pain in different parts of the body. Some are getting sick; others describe exhaustion or electricity moving through them. Happening more and more frequently, and sometimes increasing in intensity. However it’s showing up, one thing is certain: something real is happening in the body.
We are in a collective refinement cycle that is rewiring the etheric body to carry more light.
The Body as Bridge
The etheric body acts as the living bridge between spirit and form. It’s the energetic blueprint through which the physical body is animated and nourished. When our frequency lifts, this subtle template begins to reorganize itself. The denser substance of the personality’s emotional and mental charge starts to dissolve, making room for the Soul’s current to move more freely.
That release can feel like warmth, tingling, or deep waves of emotion. Other times, it feels like what I can only describe as energetic surgery: concentrated pressure or pain in specific centers or areas of the body, along the spine, or through the nervous system.
When it’s happening, it can be intense. The first few times I experienced it, it felt like fire moving through the nerves behind my heart and solar plexus. Each time came with searing pain and a sleepless night.
I’ve long understood that this region is the bridge between personality will and Soul will: the place where control learns to yield to love. What I didn’t anticipate was how much clearing was needed here, or how uncomfortable it would be.
From Solar Plexus to Heart
For lifetimes, humanity has primarily operated from the solar plexus, the center of personal power, desire, and emotional reaction. It’s where “my will” lives. We’re in the process of this lifting. We are being asked to live from the heart, the seat of inclusive love, wisdom, and alignment with the greater Will.
In esoteric terms, this is the evolutionary movement from Ray 6 (Abstract Idealism and Devotion) into Ray 7 (Ceremonial Order and Synthesis)- the shift from the Piscean Age’s polarity into the Aquarian Age’s wholeness.
The transition can feel messy because the very substance of the etheric body is changing.
As the personality learns to yield to the Soul, the etheric body refines. The nadis (the subtle counterpart of the nervous system) begin to carry more current. The old density—emotional residue, mental rigidity, ancestral patterns—releases through the psyche or the body, or both.
This can show up as pain, restlessness, heat, cold, strange dreams, or even unexpected laughter. All of it is the light doing its work.
Pain as a Messenger, Not a Punishment
Pain is often misunderstood in spiritual work. It isn’t proof that something has gone wrong. It’s information. It shows us where energy is constricted or leaving.
When we resist it, we reinforce it. But when we witness it ("I am not this pain in my body; I am the one who observes it”) the energy begins to move again.
I understand how challenging this can feel in the moment of the experience, but awareness itself becomes medicine.
Sometimes, laughter helps even more than breath. As I often tell my students: If you can laugh at it, you can lift it. If you can lift it, you can shift it. Humor interrupts contraction, loosens the personality’s grip, and lets the Soul do what it came to do.
Practices for Integration
If you’re in one of these waves of refinement, a few simple practices can help you stay steady as the light moves through:
Breathe slowly and consciously. The breath is the Soul’s first language.
Witness instead of gripping. Observation allows movement; judgment freezes it.
Hydrate and rest. The physical and etheric bodies are partners—support both.
Ground often. Be in your body. Step outside, touch the earth, or wrap yourself in something warm.
Journal with the energy. Ask: What feels complete? What essence remains? What new clarity is forming?
Ask for help. Call in your Higher Self, your Guides, the Brotherhood of Light, whatever you name Source. Energy work is never meant to be done alone.
The Gift of Refinement
What feels like unraveling is actually reorganization. The light is not punishing the form; it is teaching it to hold more radiance.
The discomfort, the strange dreams, the waves of emotion: they are the friction of transformation, the chrysalis stretching to make room for wings.
You may notice, after each wave, that you feel clearer, lighter, and more yourself. That is the etheric body’s new coherence. This is the Soul’s light woven more fully into form.
As I shared in this month’s Fields of Release session: Do not mistake endings for emptiness. What leaves your field creates the space through which higher purpose can anchor.
So if the light is rearranging you, let it. Trust the intelligence of your Soul. It knows what it’s doing.
A Note on Well-Being
While we explore these energetic perspectives, please remember this is not a substitute for medical advice. If you’re experiencing symptoms that require medical attention, please seek out a healthcare professional. Our energetic practices are meant to complement, not replace, your overall well-being.
With Radiance and love,
