How to Work with the Energy of the Lion’s Gate Portal
The Lion's Gate Portal, occurring annually on the 8th day of the 8th month, is revered by many spiritual communities as a powerful cosmic event. It's a period where the Earth aligns with the star Sirius and the Galactic Center, creating a harmonious portal that connects the physical and spiritual realms. This occurrence is believed to usher in a high frequency energy that can enable deep spiritual growth, manifestation, and personal transformation. The energy of the Lion's Gate Portal is amplified by the presence of Leo in the astrological chart, a sign often associated with royalty, power, and courage.
The ritual you will find below harnesses this abundant cosmic energy by aligning your intention with the powerful energies flowing through the universe. In the ritual, specific crystals are chosen, each serving as a conduit to channel different aspects of this potent energy. Congo Citrine, for instance, symbolizes the solar energy of Leo and is used to attract abundance and personal power. Rhodochrosite facilitates deep emotional healing, opening the heart to the influx of high vibrational energy. Amethyst enhances spiritual awareness and intuition, while Clear Quartz amplifies the energy and intentions set. By using these crystals during the ritual, we can more easily access, integrate, and utilize the heightened energy available during this celestial event for our personal and spiritual growth.
