Ready to turn all of your wildest dreams into reality? Welcome in the magnetizing energy of the Lion’s Gate this August 8th. Each year, this date rolls around and is considered, by astrologists, to be the luckiest day of the year.
Acting as a portal between worlds, the Lion’s Gate is officially open between July 26 and August 12, however its manifesting powers are most strong on the 8th of August.
Thanks to a serendipitous arrangement in the sky with Earth, Sirius, and the constellation of Orion all being in perfect alignment, the energies created are unique and plentiful in the possibilities they provide.
Astrologists explain that the particular cosmic alignment of Lion’s Gate allows for a closer connection between the physical world and the spiritual. This presents us with the perfect opportunity to manifest everything we have ever dreamed of or wanted. During this time period, the sun is in Leo, which just adds a whole other layer of excitement and opportunity.

Leo is all about following your passions and being bold, providing the ideal environment for turning ideas into fruition. And, if all that was not enough cosmic magic, the number 8, in itself, is highly potent.
August 8 is a double 8, also written as 8/8, and can be associated with the infinity symbol. In numerology, the number 8 symbolizes success and abundance, adding to the Lion’s Gate’s otherworldly powers.
