How to Take Advantage of the Lion's Gate Portal

8th August brings perhaps the most powerful energetic portal of the year, Lion's Gate.

We are now firmly in the bold and brave fire sign Leo symbolised by the Lion (hence, Lion's Gate). Not only that but Jupiter shifted from its position in Cancer into Leo and it will stay there for another 13 months.

So not only does 8/8th invite you to step your SH!T up. It actually invites you to rewrite the entire chapter and is giving you 13 months to get aligned.

With Jupiter being the planet of expansion and growth. And Leo being the sign of the bold and the brave. Plus Sirius (our spiritual star) shining its brightest at this time the next 13 months is an invitation for you to elevate yourself and figure out what your higher calling is. And once you know it, you've got a few months to set plans in place.

So, where to start to harness the power of Lion's Gate FULLY? Here's a few ideas...

1. Meditate to develop your intuition and find your highest purpose. I know eye roll so many people HATE being told to meditate, but it really is the best way of honing your intuition.

   
   

   With a strong intuition all of the BS from our external world goes quiet meaning we can hear our inner voice with clarity. When you are in that space of quiet, ask for your higher purpose to be revealed and listen. It might not come right away... but it'll come.

2. CLEAR in order to bring in the new. All of our lives are full to the brim of mental, physical and spiritual CRAP. I know spiritual people always say "make space for something new to come in!!!!". However, it really is true. You're probably full to the brim, so is your calendar. Have a clear out.

   
   

   Old friendships that don't serve you. Close those group chats. Got a boyfriend you really don't like actually? Time to face the music. Hate your job? Fuck it off. Be responsible (obviously), but have a clear out. And that goes for physical stuff too. Donate, sell it on Vinted. Just clear.

3. If you work with Spirit, ASK them to show you what your purpose is. Begin to develop your relationship with your ancestors and guides (they are LITERALLY waiting for you to do this) and then ask for your purpose to be revealed. it might come to you in your dreams, in meditations or in strange little nudges and unexpected invites. Again, it might not come instantly... patience child.

   
   

4. Visualise your Higher Self. Imagine you've woken up as your Higher Self, imagine what a day in their life is like... go through in excruciating detail. Allow yourself to get excited by that life (for it's already waiting for you!), feel into it, allow your vibrations to rise. And then write down what you saw. This form of manifestation is SO powerful (it's how i manifested 2x dreamy birth experiences!).

Now for my ADHD queens, don't worry if you forget to do all of this on 8/8. Like I said, this energy is the most potent on this date, but really you're fine to get the ball rolling on your higher purpose for another 13 months. You got time.

Let me know what you're most eager to do for Lion's Gate! Blessed be Witches!

Love,
