8 Ideas for the 8-8 Lion's Gate Portal

Every year, the 8-8 Lion's Gate Portal brings a powerful wave of positive energy that is perfect for setting intentions and manifesting your deepest desires.

This celestial event peaks on August 8th (but is open for several days before and after), when the Sun in Leo aligns with the brightest star in our night sky, Sirius, and Orion’s Belt, creating a cosmic alignment that opens a spiritual gateway.

This is an energetically ideal time for intentions and actions related to spiritual growth and personal transformation. 

What is the Lion's Gate Portal?

The Lion's Gate Portal is a cosmic event that takes place annually on August 8th, marking the alignment of the Sun in Leo, the star Sirius, and Orion’s Belt. The ancient Egyptians celebrated the rising of Sirius, known as the "spiritual sun," which signaled the annual flooding of the Nile River and was associated with abundance and renewal.

This alignment is considered to open a potent portal for receiving divine light and spiritual energies.

Why is 8-8 a Good Day for Manifestation?

The Lion's Gate Portal is a good day for manifestation due to the powerful cosmic energies at play. The alignment of the Sun, Sirius, and Orion’s Belt creates a surge of positive energy that enhances our ability to set clear intentions and attract our deepest desires.

The number eight, associated with the infinity symbol, represents infinite possibilities and abundance. During this auspicious period, the veil between the physical world and the spiritual realm is thinner, making it easier to connect with our higher selves and receive guidance.

8 Things You Can Do on 8-8 to Work with the Energy of the Lion's Gate Portal

  1. Set Powerful Intentions: Write down your goals and desires on a piece of paper. Be specific and focus on what you truly want to manifest. This clear intention setting is crucial for harnessing the energy of this powerful day.

  2. Create a Vision Board: Use images, words, and symbols that represent your goals and dreams. Place this vision board where you can see it daily to keep your intentions front and center.

  3. Meditate with Crystals: Meditate using crystals like citrine, which are associated with the Leo energy and the solar plexus chakra and those that support personal power, transformation, and energetic protection. These crystals can amplify your intentions and attract abundance.

  4. Practice Daily Affirmations: Repeat positive affirmations that align with your goals. Affirmations help reinforce your intentions and keep you focused on your path.

  5. Engage in Heart Healing: Focus on healing your heart chakra through meditation, visualization, or energy healing practices. A balanced heart chakra is essential for manifesting from a place of love and compassion.

  6. Journal Your Spiritual Journey: Reflect on your spiritual growth and personal evolution. Writing about your experiences can provide clarity and insight into your journey of self-discovery.

  7. Perform a New Moon Ritual: Although the Lion's Gate Portal doesn't always align with the new moon, you can still perform a new moon ritual to set intentions and release old patterns that no longer serve you.

  8. Connect with the Energy of Sirius: Spend time under the night sky, meditating on the energy of Sirius, also known as the dog star. Visualize its bright light filling you with divine light and higher consciousness.

What Will You Do, During the 8-8 Lion's Gate Portal?

The 8-8 Lion's Gate Portal is a powerful cosmic event that offers a unique opportunity for manifestation and spiritual growth. By setting clear intentions, engaging in spiritual practices, and connecting with the cosmic energies of this day, you can tap into the power of the Lion's Gate to manifest your deepest desires.

Embrace this transformative time and allow the divine light to guide you on your spiritual journey.

Happy manifesting!
