Every year on August 8th, the cosmos gifts us a powerful energetic gateway known as the Lion’s Gate Portal. This portal is a spiritual window of accelerated awakening and manifestation. If you’ve been feeling called to step more boldly into your purpose, release old patterns, or align with higher frequencies, the Lion’s Gate is your invitation.
What Is the Lion’s Gate Portal?
The Lion’s Gate Portal occurs when the Sun in Leo aligns with the star Sirius, Orion’s Belt, and the Earth, creating the most powerful gateway of the year. In numerology, 8/8 is also a highly charged date—8 is the number of infinity, abundance, and spiritual strength. This alignment creates a powerful energetic gateway between the physical and spiritual realms, amplifying our vibration, enhancing our ability to access higher wisdom, light codes, and soul-aligned manifestations.
The portal peaks on August 8th, but the energy is typically felt from July 26 to August 12.
Why Is It Called the "Lion’s Gate"?
The portal occurs while the Sun is in the sign of Leo, symbolized by the lion. Leo represents courage, heart-centered living, personal power, and self-expression. This energy invites you to lead with your heart, show up as your most authentic self, and embody your divine inner light.
Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky is referred as our “Spiritual Sun,” and is associated with wisdom, rebirth and abundance. When Sirius rises, it is said to awaken intuition and flood the Earth with light codes and healing energy, therefore creating opportunity for manifestation, alignment and creation.
How to Use the Lion’s Gate Portal Energy
1. Set Clear Intentions by writing down everything you desire in the present tense, as if they're already real. For example: "I am embodying my fullest light and attract aligned opportunities."
2. Visualize and Feel the Emotion by seeing your manifestation happen through your own eyes, and feeling all the joy and happiness. Then release it to the Universe.
3. Practice Gratitude Daily using a gratitude journal or just by saying "I am so grateful for . . ." throughout the day. Be grateful for the tiniest little things as well as the big things, aligning you with all frequencies of abundance.
4. Release What You No Longer Need creating a void for the new frequencies to enter your life. Do this using Ho'Oponopono, joss paper, meditation, Om Gam Ganapataye Namaha or your favorite releasing technique.
5. Journal Your Thoughts, Dreams and Emotions as guidance will come to you in many ways revealing insights and new directions.
6. Use The Power of Your Voice, whether it's through saying your favorite mantra, chant or affirmation. Say them loud, with confidence, allowing the vibration to raise your own energy and expand within you.
