As the summer solstice dawns, the longest day of the year is set to give way to one of the most powerful spiritual opportunities, say astrologers.
The summer solstice takes place in the UK on 21 June and carries the most daylight hours of any other in the year, making in the longest day and shortest night in the calendar.
Spiritually speaking, this can mean big things for people’s star signs, with the summer solstice holding immense energetic potential.
Spiritual medium Tracy Higgs told MailOnline it is a ‘powerful time of illumination, clarity, and renewal’.
‘The solstice invites us to awaken to our purpose and realign with the light within. It’s a sacred portal of growth,’ she added.
While Sagittarius signs will experience themes of rebirth and intimacy that awaken passion and power, Leos should pause to reflect, reconnect, and focus on resting over revival.
Meanwhile, those born under the sign of cancer, due to celebrate their birthdays, are currently experiencing a cycle of personal growth, meaning they must shed old skin to renew.
Aries on the other hand, are being ‘nudged to focus inward’ and should stick to clearing away stagnant energy to ‘invite peace’.

According to the medium, the solstice acts as a reminder from the universe that we are ‘light’.
‘We are part of the great turning wheel of life, always evolving, always growing. Wherever your sign sits in the sky, let this sacred shift bring you back to centre.’
On the longest day of the year, she encouraged all signs to light a candle at sunrise or sunset and to ask spirit guide to follow them into the ‘next season with clarity, courage, and compassion’.
