Unlocking The Lion’s Gate Portal: 8 Rituals To Harness Its Energy
Unlocking The Lion’s Gate Portal: 8 Rituals To Harness Its Energy
Every year on August 8th, the universe opens an energetic gateway known as the Lion’s Gate Portal. A time of elevated frequency, soul remembrance, and powerful manifestation. The Lion’s Gate Portal is a deeply spiritual and ancient event that aligns us with cosmic intelligence, higher consciousness, and the divine blueprint of our souls.
Let’s explore the magic behind this sacred event and how it impacts your body, spirit and destiny.
What is the Lion’s Gate Portal?
The Lion’s Gate Portal is a celestial alignment that occurs every year between July 26th and August 12, peaking on August 8th during the 8/8 portal. During this time the sun is in the sign of Leo, and the star Sirius, also known as the ‘Spiritual Sun’, rises in the sky and aligns with Orion’s Belt and the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt. This alignment creates a gateway for high-frequency energetic light codes, DNA activations and spiritual downloads that awaken us to our soul’s purpose.
The Power of 8
The numerology of 8/8 is no coincidence. The number 8 is the symbol of infinity, representing eternal soul, limitless abundance, and cosmic balance. With the number 8 representing abundance, this energy is being amplified on 8/8, creating the most potent day for manifestation. The 8/8 portal offers a rare opportunity to collapse timelines, break karmic cycles, and anchor in a new reality.
How does the Lion’s Gate Portal affect us?
The portal impacts us on many levels, energetically, emotionally, physically, and spiritually.
With the sun being in Leo, Leo’s energy rules the heart chakra, encouraging emotional healing, self-love, and authentic expression. You may feel more called to express yourself more deeply or creatively, and have the courage to reclaim your power and step into your aligned purpose.
The star Sirius is known to hold ancient wisdom from higher realms. During this portal, dormant codes are being activated within our energy fields; especially for starseeds, lightworkers, and those on a spiritual path.
During this celestial event we are shifting timelines and upgrading, so you may feel sudden clarity, be guided to make big decisions, or experience endings and beginnings that realign you with your highest path. Now is the time to take risks and go after your dreams.
8 Rituals to Harness The Lion’s Gate Portal energy
If you want to feel more connected to the energy of the Lion’s Gate Portal, here are eight rituals you can do to tap into this energy and activate your soul’s purpose.
- Sun or Star Gazing
Begin or end your day with intention by stepping outside at sunrise or sunset. Connect with the energy of the sun or the star Sirius and feel its warmth and envision its golden rays surrounding you. Say an affirmation, such as “I am radiant, bold, and aligned with my divine path.”
- Fire Release Ritual
Fire is Leo’s element and a sacred ally in transmutation. With a piece of paper, write down what you’re releasing (fear, self-doubt, outdated identities, or patterns etc.) when you're done, fold the piece of paper away from you and burn it, you can use sage or palo santo to start the fire. As it’s burning, envision cutting the cord to what you are releasing and speak out loud what you are making space for, such as confidence, creativity, and soul aligned purpose.
- Channeled Journaling
The energy of Sirius can heighten your intuition and open your third eye. Channel this energy by lighting a candle or incense, close your eyes and invite messages from your guides or higher self. Journal what comes through and don’t overthink it. You can start with a prompt, such as, “What am I ready to release and what am I calling in?”.
- 8/8 Manifestation Grid
This is a powerful day for manifesting abundance, purpose, and soul-aligned relationships. You can create an 8/8 manifestation grid by using eight crystals and arranging them in a figure 8 pattern. Then create a written intention or vision that you would like to manifest and place it in the center. You can also place the grid in the sunlight to absorb the Leo sun energy.
- Sound Healing & Light Activation
The high frequencies of the Lion’s Gate Portal are ideal for attuning to new vibrations. Sound bypasses the conscious mind and speaks directly to the soul, activating dormant DNA and aligning your energy field with your highest potential. To tap into the Lion’s gate energy with sound, you can play crystal sound bowls, or a certain hertz frequency, for example - 528 hz focuses on DNA repair and the heart chakra. While listening to these frequencies you can choose to sit or lay down, place your hand on your heart or third eye and allow the sounds and vibrations move through you. Take note of whatever visuals, or messages that appear for you.
- Cleanse
Water is a powerful element that helps cleanse, and purify, and on 8/8 you can use it to help integrate the upgrades coming through the portal. One thing you can do to harness this energy is to prepare a ritual bath with sea salt, hibiscus petals, lemon, or essential oils like frankincense or neroli. Set your intention to release old energy and call in expansion.
- Vision Ritual
The Lion’s Gate Vision Ritual is a powerful way to align with your highest self and manifest your soul’s desires during the 8/8 portal. Begin by creating a sacred space with candles, sound, and intention. Ground your energy with breathwork, then visualize your future self, tuning into how they live, feel, and embody their purpose. Anchor the vision by writing a letter, scripting your dream day, or creating a vision board. Seal it with fire or water to energetically commit, and then start living as them; speaking, choosing, and receiving as if your vision is already here. The more you embody it, the faster it manifests.
- Celebrate Yourself
Leo is the sign of expression, royalty, and bold creativity. Let out your inner Leo by playing music that awakens your inner lioness. Dress in gold, white, or something that makes you feel radiant. Dance, sing, laugh, and celebrate yourself in the fullest way. Joy is magnetic, when you embody the frequency of who you’re becoming, you collapse timelines and manifest with ease.
The Lion’s Gate Portal is a cosmic invitation to rise, remember, and reclaim your infinite power. It’s a reminder that you are a divine being having a human experience, and you came here with a mission. On August 8th allow yourself to pause, listen, and receive. Remember that you are not behind in life, you’re not broken, you are awakening. Use this portal as your moment to shine, to be courageous and create the life you are destined for. The gates are open, now is the time to step through.
