The Lions Gate Portal

Find out what The Lions Gate Portal is and how to tune into its energies to supercharge your intentions & manifestations.

So in my last New Moon reading, I told you a little white lie…I said the Lions Gate Portal would open up on August 8th.

It actually begins to open around July 28th and remains open until August 12th.

But the real magic happens on the 8th, when the Sun in Leo, the star Sirius, Orion’s Belt, and the Earth all lineup, creating a powerful portal of energy. 

According to ask.angels.com, “this astrological and spiritual gateway has roots that go back to ancient Egypt and for thousands of years has been observed and honoured as a time of a great energetic influx and activation.”

If we look at the date when the real magic happens, it’s on 8-8-2022, and if we look to numerology for the meaning of the number 8 – the number eight is a symbol of abundance, wealth, and achievement.

And if we turn the number 8 on its side, we see the infinity symbol ♾️the concept of something that is unlimited, endless, without bound.

You can see why it’s said this day is the ideal time for manifesting & setting intentions; when planets, stars & numbers are aligned.

So use this time for self-reflection & breaking old patterns to become the person you want to be, by setting intentions, declaring them to the universe and working towards them. (basically a mixture of what you’d do on a New Moon & Full Moon, but it’s all supercharged by the portal✨ )

Four things to do during the Lions Gate Portal

1. Meditation / Yoga / Reiki – the aim is to clear your mind and make room & way for ideas & inspiration & messages to flow. This will help you with your self-reflection process and to connect to spirit guides / angels / higher self / your intuition.
2. Journal – you need somewhere to record the downloads (messages) you will receive. And the thing with downloads is they don’t always make sense, so writing them down and reading them back (sometimes a few days later) helps.
3. Crystals – I don’t know much about crystals but what I do know is they can be super powerful too. So let your intuition guide you to a crystal and use this during your meditation practice. Feel the energy running through it and see what answers it brings you.
4. Journal – yes, it’s here again and with some journal prompts just in case you’re not keen on meditation or didn’t receive any downloads. 

Tip; Pick the ones that resonate for you. Always end with actionable steps.

1. Where am I resisting change & why?
2. What do I need to deal with that I’ve been putting off?
3. Where am I feeling frustrated in my life & why?
4. What can I do about feeling frustrated?
5. What brings me joy?
6. If I could do anything for a career or go anywhere, what would I do or where would I go?
7. How can I make this happen?
8. What one step can I take to bring more joy to my life?
9. What one step can I take to towards my (insert what you want to manifest)

A little bit about manifesting

I would love to tell you that all we need to do is declare to the universe what we want, and the universe delivers.

It’s not quite that simple. And if anyone tries to tell you otherwise, I’d proceed cautiously.

You can declare to the universe what you want, but you must be clear in your intentions because the universe & manifesting is not linear.

You need to take the first steps – that’s why I added the journal prompt of ‘what one step can I take?’. 

Your job is to take the steps, take action and leave the how / outcome to the universe.

You will succeed if you keep moving forward and taking steps aligned with your intention.

And, one final thing to watch out for – curveballs

Curveballs can be from people, places, situations, or even yourself (self-doubt, self-sabotage).

I’ve had to overcome a lot of self-doubt & self sabotage over the last two years, especially whilst building Spiritual Wellness, along with feelings of worthiness too.

So, if any of this comes up for you, I’d always recommend seeking help either from a coach, mentor, friend or therapist.

Since clearing my self-doubt & self-sabotage blocks, I now see these curveballs as messages from the universe; it’s the universes way of testing me – do I really want what I say I want?

Or, if I’ve lost my way, the universe gently nudges me back.

I spend a lot of time researching my New Moon, Full Moon and any astrological event blogs, and will always try to include links to sites I’ve used. ask-angels.com is a site I quoted earlier.
