Lion Light
Do you know the history behind Lion’s Gate, when it’s said there is enhanced spiritual growth opportunity?
As always, check in with yourself to see what you sense to be true for you as you read these words…
And if it resonates, allow yourself to restore and remember what you know inside about this…
what speaks to you and put your focus there.
The Sirius Star was worshipped by the Egyptians…
And they would manage their calendars by its rising time, what we refer to as Lion’s Gate.
If you were to look at the symbol for a star rising, it shows a literal arc or break in a cycle.
This is the energy translation behind the power of the star to enhance our soul’s journey.
Lion’s Gate occurs between late July and mid August every year.
Calendars have changed over time to match the way events were viewed from Earth and during one of these times…
What some mark as the start of the precession (of the Equinoxes)
The date when this Lion’s gate portal opens shifted from every July 19 and 20th to late July.
The date is based on the placement of the Sirius star and when it begins rising…
And there’s a key event that occurs when it does.
When Sirius rises, it also creates an alignment in the Leo constellation…this is the Lion.
Where the Earth, Sun and Orion align…this is the gateway.
The Sirius Star was also associated with the Sun as the light from both, due to the alignment, began to blend together from Earth’s view.
Making it shine even brighter, which is why it’s known as a highly spiritual time.
The Lion’s Gateway also occurs during the 8/8 date which marks infinity or infinite time…
This is seen as wholeness, abundance and a re-connection to the truth of self (beyond lifetimes).
During this time, when one is open to it…
The energy supports deeper truths to emerge from within.
Like the Solstice and Equinox days, a new path may be forged.
As hidden beliefs and paradigms are revealed, which can be released to create a clean slate.
While this theme is felt differently every year due to growth
The energetic expression occurs annually…
And often continues what began with the Summer Solstice in June…
But it doesn’t end here.
The star of the Leo constellation is Regulus…
Around the 22nd of August
shortly after the Sun enters Leo in sidereal astrology
A transformation for direction occurs
Regulus is one of the 4 Royal Stars and points one to true North
This is when balance becomes emphasized
As integrity with your path is highlighted.
And the time in between (from August 8th to August 22nd)
Is an opportunity to purify that which you do not believe is true for you.
This year, 2024, brings an emphasis on the 8 unifying energy.
Unification with your Higher Self.
