The cosmic alignment of Earth, Sirius, and the Orion constellations opens a spiritual gateway and opportunity for further ascension and potent manifestation. The portal may be open for several days but it's at its peak on August 8th (8/8). Angel Numbers (repetitive numbers that vibrate in the form of messages from the Angelic Realm) 8 and 88 signify a spiritual journey or lesson that you're ready to receive and a portal opening for an opportunity for a deeper spiritual practice. The energy behind 2025's gateway is all about making space for your soul's true expression and manifesting from your heart space. When we shift manifestation from our ego to the heart, we start co-creating with our authentic self.
This energy portal asks us to become clear with our intentions and to mindfully reflect upon our true desires. It's important to consider putting aside actions, beliefs, and goals that no longer feel in alignment. Do not assign judgement on those things that did not come to fruition-put your faith in the divine timing of the Universe. Decluttering your emotional landscape (self-doubt, resentment, jealousy) clears the heart space and allows for your truest expression to shine. Here are some heart-led reflections to consider for the upcoming Lion's Gate portal. Spend time journaling or in meditation with the questions and consider what will be your intentions going forward.
Inner Clarity
"What parts of me are still waiting to be met with compassion?"
"What is more important-acceptance or alignment? Where am I holding myself back to fit in?"
"What do I truly desire?"
"What does my heart know that my mind keeps questioning?"
"Who or what do I need to forgive so I can be free to move forward?"
Emotional Liberation
"Where have I abandoned my truest desires for societal expectations, approval, or control?"
"What do I need to release to move into the space of authenticity?"
"What old emotions, feelings, and hurt are taking up too much space in my heart right now? What can I shift so that I can allow for joy and love to reside?"
Soul Expression
"What am I still carrying in my heart that's not mine to hold?"
"What part of me have I outgrown and what part of me is trying to emerge?"
"What would it mean to live as the fullest version of myself?"
"How can I let my heart lead?"
As you begin to shift into setting intentions from your heart space, your true soul's expression will unfold. This may change the landscape around you-your close relationships, how you utilize your time, or who you want to show up for. Let these changes be signs of forward-moving alignment, not loss. As the old falls away, trust what remains (and what arrives) is in resonance with the truth of who you're becoming. Use your heart space as a compass and allow it to lead!
