LION’S GATE PORTAL 8-8
8 August 2024
What does the Lion’s Gate Portal mean? For how long does it last? Why is August 8 or 8-8 so significant?
Astrologically, August 8 or 8-8 Lion’s Portal Gate is significant because it is referred to as the peak of the Lion’s Gate Portal, a day for manifestation and considered by many as the marker of a new year for resolutions and goals.
28 August is when the Lion’s Gate Portal began and runs until 12 August. 8 August is moment where Sun in Leo is in alignment with the star Sirius, Orion’s Belt and Earth. Also known as the Dog Star, Sirius is the brightest star in the sky and revered since ancient civilizations. Sirius is considered our second Sun.
In astrology, Sirius brings wealth, abundance, fortune and fame, thus this is an auspicious moment to manifest our dreams into reality, by writing them down, or whispering them to the Universe, screaming them out loud as well as create a vision board.
Why is the 8th of August so significant? 8 falls in the middle of the Sun’s transit through Leo and the Sun rules Leo. This creates an alignment of the physical and spiritual, ideal for setting intentions. Since Mercury is Retrograde, our intentions may be sluggish in creating roots, but with persistent reinforcement as Mercury goes direct the 28th of August, the Lion’s Gate Portal becomes a bringer of the abundant and new, creating our dreams into reality.
8-8 is a powerful numerological combination, they say, one of the most powerful. 8 in astrology is the house of Scorpio, the house of sex, death, taxes as well as sorcery or magic. The Lion’s Gate Portal is a time of death and re-birth. May we be consistent with our manifestation(s) especially with Mercury Retrograde, the ‘take-off’ may be sluggish, thus as Mercury stations direct 28 August, may we tune back into our intentions.
The number 8 on its side is the infinity sign. The number eight brings transformation, evolution, and strength. It gives us a lot of potential to embrace our power and the Universal life-force or energy!
Let us take full advantage of the Lion’s Gate Portal: We are infinite in what we can dream into reality!
