Luck, Leo Lunar & Lionsgate

We have a super powerful weekend ahead of us… and here’s why. There are so many things happening on 8th August, where do we even begin!?

We will be entering a New Moon in Leo, which is also the second one in a row as the previous New Moon was also in Leo! Leo represents fire, creativity, passion & self expression. On this same date, we also have the Lions Gate Portal!

What is Lions Gate?

Our Spiritual Sun, Sirius, is the second brightest star in the sky, next to the Sun and is commonly associated with abundance & fertility. During Lions Gate, Sirius rises and is in perfect alignment with the Earth & the Sun. This portal of energy is open from 28th July and peaks on 8th August every year. It is called Lions Gate, as it occurs when our Sun is in Leo, which represents the expression of the Divine.

During this time, we can harness so much abundance and love both individually and to humanity on Earth as a whole. The energetic, spiritual and vibrational upgrade of this powerful Portal can bring to all of us some hope.

The significance of 8/8

All of this fiery Leo energy, both with the peak of the Lions Gate Portal and the New Moon in Leo AND being in the current Leo Sun sign, falls on the date of 8/8. What’s the significance you say? Well, it really adds another layer of magic to this already powerful time!

In numerology, the number 8 represents a vibrational frequency of tackling challenges, rising above any adversity, and embracing opportunities. The physical shape of the number 8 is also the symbol for infinity turned on its side, showing balance of giving and receiving, being in alignment and the constant flow of yin & yang.

As this date of abundance also falls on the New Moon, it really is an incredible time to manifest what you want to bring more of into your life.
