The Sun on my skin

Well, my skin is olive, so I don't burn, I just tan. I love the sun! If I don't get sun, I become depressed, and my body feels awful. Sometimes, I sit in the bed of my truck, in the driveway, no shirt on, and just do work there. I'm pretty sure the sting you're experiencing is because we're transitioning to Summer, and you haven't been in the sun enough to adjust.

I experienced this years ago - exactly the same and came out in hives type spots that itched like hell - then I stopped using sun cream - and no more irritation. The Sun is healing and life giving - but everything in moderation just don't stay out in it long enough to get burned. Protect yourself with clothing, hats etc not sun cream - it causes skin cancer, not the sun.

Alot of areas are really seasonally warm, but here we've had a long not cold winter, the Fraser doesnt get below freezing often, but just rain and cool, and miserable. Now its getting a bit more sunny days, they're fairly warm for this time of year, but its wonderful. I love the sun. I love the feel of it, it cuts through the clouds even now, to shine for postiive thoughts and feel the connect to my Guide, Family. I hope its not going to be causing any conditions for anyone, it might be weather modification, something akin to chemtrails even.

Although on a side note, is your area one of the much warmer ones?

dont forget if your skin type is 0 (albino) or 1 (very fair -most northern europeans) - your skin is not able to tan, instead it just burns and freckles at the most extreme points (cheeks, hands, upper back) so protective clothing, hat etc are a must.

physical sunscreens like titanium dioxide and zinc oxides do not seem to cause cancer like the mainstream/commercial sunblocks (avobenzone, homosalate, etc) might be doing.

ITs because the sun is changing its state and should soon enlarge and eat the closest planets it was shown in a crop circle not so long ago but people dont really care about crop circle. Even when they tell us to not believe the bearer of false prophet, cough cough obama.

Sun is so needed and its the number one protector of cancer. The studies done blew all of that out of the water. I'll stick with the sun right through and through.

I can't say I've been feeling the sting that you're describing, and I am outdoors everyday, but my eyes become irritated, and tear up during the afternoon without cloud cover.

I find this interesting because while I don't work outside often I've never had such an issue looking around during the day. During a sunny day even if I'm not looking toward the sun I often find it so bright outside that it can literally make it difficult to drive because it is hard to keep my eyes on the road.

I get that to,but it's due to my allergies I guess.
They are at record levels here in the US due to the warm winter.

The sunlight seems to be "shield free" lately. I avoid the noon to four rays.
But then, I am pretty light skinned. I remember not noticing the sun.

I don't feel any difference

Got a good tan, and the sun is like it allways is both in strenght and light at this time of year.
But as this is ATS i am not surpriced of the amount of people feeling something wierd is going on

Its the chemicals folks. The more chemicals you have in you the more sensitive your skin and eyes are. And for sure we are getting bombarded with chemicals from all sides.
My experience comes from having the Agent Orange in me for so long. Each year I was more sensitive to the sun on my skin and my eyes.
I eliminated the Agent Orange in Dec 98 and the following Summer no more skin irritation and no more eye sensitivity.
Of course I eat organic, drink distilled water and have never had a prescription drug or OTC drug in my entire life. Plus the air up here in Michigan is still pretty clean. Its the chemicals. Doc

Yea, forreal. Last year in Toronto, winter ended in about late March early April. This year we had sun from January, so I guess it's the quick change that we all notice.

I have experienced this as well. While riding in my car with the moon roof open lately the sun is uncomfortanly burning my ears and my face. I have really noticed it over the last two to three weeks or so. Even when the temps are low it is happening as well.

Feels great on my skin. Although.. I did notice that I'm tanning rather quick this spring. Other than that, feels really good on my skin.

i took my first bike ride of spring like 30 minutes and was burned enough that it hurt for 4 days.

Wow! I was thinking the same thing the other day. Before I go to work in the morning (around 8am) I take a shower and then I sit in the sun and my hair dries in minutes. I am in Chicago too. The weather here has been warmer than usual. A lot warmer. We experienced mid 80's 2 weeks ago.

For some reason it feels like you are tanning on a beach somewhere in Florida. I wonder what this mid summer is going to feel like?!

does your boyfriend know your in the truck with no shirt on?

I too have been noticing this my self & have asked my self many times since last year, is the suns rays getting stronger now or is it me just imagining things.

I have been to many parts of the world especially to Egypt where it is desert like conditions with very strong sunlight & have never felt the suns rays this strong compared to now days.


Today being a very sunny autumn day & I’m feeling very strong stingy burns from the suns rays, it’s quite odd & I’m olive skinned.
