What Your Zodiac Sign Can Manifest On August 8, As Sirius & Orion Align

Anything you want is possible. The Lion's Gate Portal peaks today, ushering in new light energy as Earth, star Sirus and the constellation Orion align. This occurs each year and peaks today on (8-8), a numerology symbol of abundance and the ongoing flow of energy you receive from the universe. Lion's Gate occurs during Leo Season, which this energetic portal is named after. It helps you harness your inner lion as you come to life passionate and confident about what you want to manifest.

By honoring this profound opportunity for growth, you can create whatever you wish during this time. Sirus and Orion represent the divine light within you, as you are called to reflect on the past, present and future, ensuring whatever action you take honors what you've been through while paying homage to all you hope to manifest in your future. During this portal, you will be embracing the energy of Leo, a fire sign known for following its heart. Look within yourself at what you genuinely desire for your life, and realize that anything you want is possible; you must believe it is.

Lion's Gate is a chance to create a new beginning in your life and step into your higher self as you can deeply incorporate your growth into your choices. Leo takes up space as it genuinely steps into its power, realizing it can accomplish anything so long as its heart is on the same page — and the same is true for you today. There is no room for doubt as you are called to love yourself more deeply, embrace your inner power and align with the universe so you can manifest anything you dream of.
