Star Notes: 888 Lions Gate Portal & Finding Inner Peace 

Every year on August 8th, the universe opens a portal known as the 8:8 Portal or Lions Gate Portal. This annual event brings powerful energy that supports spiritual growth, manifestation, and abundance. In 2024, this portal is especially significant due to the powerful resonance of the number 888, making the energy on this day even more potent. From August 5th to September 15th, we can enhance our energy development by focusing on “finding peace of mind within our bodies.”

What is the Lions Gate Portal?

The Lions Gate Portal is a key astrological event occurring when the Sun in Leo aligns with the star Sirius. This alignment amplifies energy and light, creating an ideal time for personal and spiritual growth. This year, the influence of 888 makes this period even more powerful, symbolizing unlimited potential and opportunities. It’s an excellent time to set intentions, pursue your desires, and achieve abundance.

Tips for Finding Inner Peace

To make the most of the Lions Gate Portal’s energy, consider these practices to find inner peace:

1. Embrace Yourself: When feeling anxious, cross your hands and place your right hand on your left shoulder and your left hand on your right shoulder. Gently pat yourself and take a few deep breaths. Tell yourself, “I am here. My body supports me. Mother Earth supports me. The universe supports me. I am here, and I support myself.” Afterward, you can pinch or massage your body to enhance self-awareness.

2. Use Breathing to Balance Energy: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and let your arms hang naturally with palms facing forward. Inhale, bringing your hands to your heart center, then exhale and release your hands. Repeat this seven times, ideally completing 21 repetitions. This breathing exercise can be done throughout your day—before picking up kids, when you arrive home, after watching TV, or every 90 minutes while working on the computer. It helps regulate your energy and maintain balance.

3. Gaze at Your Reflection: Take a moment to look at your reflection in the mirror for at least a minute. Affirm to yourself: “I accept myself. I accept who I am, including my known and unknown self. I accept my past, present, and future. I recognize that my true self extends beyond my reflection. I cherish myself deeply.” Even if self-love feels challenging, remember that the universe loves you unconditionally.

Connecting with the Earth's Ascension Energy

Recently, you might have deeply felt the effects of Earth’s ascension. This process brings significant changes to our energy, body, and consciousness. These changes may include:

• Increased Energy: You might feel a boost in energy, creativity, and motivation.
• Body Adjustments: You could experience discomfort such as fatigue or headaches as your body adjusts to new energy frequencies.
• Expanded Awareness: Your awareness might become more sensitive to your surroundings and others' emotions.
• Emotional Fluctuations: Your emotions may become more volatile. It’s important to maintain stability and inner peace.
• Deeper Connection to the Universe: You may feel a stronger connection to the universe, and practices like meditation may become more effective.

To maintain inner peace and support your journey over the next two weeks while continuing to clear and release, it’s essential to integrate some simple yet effective practices into your daily routine. Engaging in 10-15 minutes of exercise each day can boost your metabolism and help you manage stress, while choosing books that resonate with your intuition offers valuable insights from the universe. Mindful reading, accompanied by a soothing cup of water or tea, allows you to absorb and appreciate the messages that come your way.

Additionally, incorporating deep breathing into your daily life can help you stay grounded and connected to the universe’s energy. By being aware of your breath, you support your body in its natural process of clearing and releasing, fostering a sense of peace and connection to the divine.

Living through such intense changes means you are already equipped to handle these shifts with grace. Remember, true courage comes not from the absence of fear but from understanding that these transitions bring meaningful gifts and lessons. Embrace this transformative period with confidence, knowing it is guiding you toward growth and new opportunities.

During the Lions Gate Portal, combining these practices to find inner peace can help you maximize the potential of this powerful time. Set clear intentions, meditate, celebrate abundance, and stay connected with the universe to achieve personal growth and fulfillment. May this period bring you clarity, transformation, and abundance. Embrace this moment, use the universe’s support, and create a beautiful future for yourself. 🌟🦁✨
