The 8th of August every year is known as a very powerful portal called the Lion’s Gate, happening at the peak of Leo Season, where the Sun aligns itself with the bright star of Sirius, and Earth.
This alignment represents an opening between the physical and the spiritual world, creating a powerful energetic portal that calls for you not be afraid of what you want and be like the Lion.
Let’s dissect what makes this Lion’s Gate so forceful.
The Sun is in Leo, a Fire sign that this star rules, reflects a lot of that solar energy. Leo shines brightly, with magnetism, pride and enjoyment to be in the spotlight. They are very charming, playful and generous. We can all benefit from this energy during Leo season by being confident in shining our Light, becoming the leader of our own life and/or inspiring others. It’s about choosing to be you with an open heart.
The Lion’s Gate Numerology 8/8
The number 8 is without a doubt, one of the most beautiful numbers that exists. It’s the only one that fully closes itself in a continuous line and has a strong association to the energy of infinity. It’s a complete curve which flow is never interrupted! Isn’t that amazing?!
It’s also associated to the endlessness of all things, like death and rebirth, exactly one of the meanings of the 8th House in Astrology.
Donald B. Grey in his book “The Universe Has A Number: The Numerology Guide For Beginners And Discovering Numbers That Resonates With Your Future, Money, Career, Love And Destiny”, explains that the number 8 will teach you two things:
- How to ask for what you want around issues of financial success and abundance, and
- It will prepare you for the ascension of your inner being by telling you in a friendly way that you have to let go, trust the inevitable, and not try to control everything in your life.
In addition to this, it’s very interesting that the number that underlies the power of this year’s Lion’s Gate is 4 (8+8+2+0+22). A number of structure, balance and strength through a solid foundation. Picture the square, four equal sides, stability in its four angles. There’s a lot of power and creative abundance within this number. This means that this year’s Lion’s Gate is an intense Force to manifest stability, safety and groundedness in different areas of your life.
So, I would like to help you prepare for a Manifesting meditation in this powerful portal, by providing you with these soul-inquiry questions:
What life do I want to create? Is this what I really want to create or what I think I want to create (sometimes what we do has nothing to do with our real desires and it’s more about what we’re supposed to do or have).
What sustains my life right now? Think about the bottom side of that square, it needs to be solid to support the rest of the structure.
What changes do I need to do in order to overcome obstacles?
Who do I want to be?
What can I let die for me to allow something new to emerge?
You can benefit from the powerful vibration of this Lion’s Gate. Here are some recommendations depending on your Sun sign:
- Aries: Do what you want to do and enjoy it! Explore your creativity and leadership. What have you given too much power to, that you need now to let go of? Money, sex? Think about what you want to accomplish in your career and how you want to be seen.
- Taurus: Home is of great importance right now. Think about what type of environment you want to create for your family. Financial stability is very important for your sign but so is emotional, mental and spiritual strength. What kind of relationships do you want to have with loved ones, romantic and business partners?
- Gemini: Use your communication skills with charisma and magnetism. Speak your truth by trying to connect to others genuinely. Recognize the habits you have developed that are not in resonance with who you want to be and the life you want to manifest. You might be also interested in learning something new that will expand your life philosophy.
- Cancer: Is good for you to focus on creating financial stability. What can you change related to the way you make money? Is there another creative way for you to have additional income? Something that you can enjoy and can bring you more money. Time to bring back your passions and interests in your daily life. Time to think about yourself as well!
- Leo: Pay attention on how you’re showing up. You can definitely inspire others with your leadership. What type of leader to you want to be? Are you being true to who you are and you heart? There are some beliefs that come from your ancestors that are not needed anymore. Pay attention to your words. What thoughts or ideas are you repeating that didn’t originate from you? Are your beliefs really yours or come from your family?
- Virgo: Transcend your worries, your fixed habits that can be destructive. Remember how you want to be of service and your great contribution to the world. What pains are you carrying and hiding that need your attention to be healed?You may want to focus on this work in solitude to get to a deeper spiritual understanding.
- Libra: Your long-term hopes and dreams take a centre place in your life. You might also be asking yourself if the friends you have are actually true to you and have your best interests at heart.

- Scorpio: You’re focusing on your career Scorpio!. You want success and achieve your goals. You have been working very hard lately so take the time to do a manifesting meditation. Reflect on your dreams, design with empowered vision. You have the drive, ambition and talent to succeed. Don’t give up, keep going!
- Sagittarius: You’re focused on learning, travel, anything that can provide a higher consciousness. Be open to look within and find patterns and behaviours that are limiting yourself and constricting your expansion. You have a need for truth and you want to find it, but not everyone’s truth, you want to find your own! You might want to expand your voice. Have you thought about writing a book? Or maybe having a podcast or a blog?
- Capricorn: Are you ready to transform? It’s a great time for self-improvement and regeneration. Take the time for self-care and take a break. This will let you recharge. You might ask yourself deep life questions. Your Soul is guiding you to find something that is kind of lost in your life but it’s now time to embrace it. The answer is within. Don’t be afraid to look.

- Pisces: Feeling overwhelmed with your daily responsibilities? It’s a good idea to reorganize your day, change your daily routine to be able to be more calm. You’re gaining new skills and developing more competence. Changing your old routines will create space for you to incorporate these new responsibilities that come as a result of these new skills. You’ll be OK Pisces!
