Lions Gate x Aquarius Full Moon August 2025
Hi my love,

I’m recording live from my retreat Recharge & Renew with 6 incredible women here in Ubud Bali.

This retreat was timed with divine precision, aligning with the Lions Gate, when the Sun in Leo and the star Sirius flood the Earth with light, clarity, and cosmic remembrance. This isn’t just a moment — it’s a soul reset.

The Lions Gate opens the channel for deep energetic upgrades, and here, in this intentional space, you’re invited to release the weight of the past, realign with your heart’s deepest truth, and recharge from the inside out. This is more than rest, this is recalibration. A return to the you who was never lost just waiting for the right light to rise.

This lion’s gate is unique for the Lions Gate Portal peaking right alongside the Aquarius Full Moon.

This combo? Big. Bold. Charged up. Absolutely not subtle.

Let’s break it down.
What is the Lion's Gate Portal?
So every year around August 8th, we experience what’s called the Lions Gate Portal — a potent energetic alignment where the Sun in Leo, the star Sirius, and the Earth all align. Sirius is this super high-frequency star — the "Spiritual Sun" — and it’s rising in the sky just before dawn this time of year, which ancient Egyptians actually used to mark the start of their New Year.

Think of it like a cosmic WiFi upgrade: The Lions Gate opens a channel for higher consciousness, intuition boosts, and manifestation energy. Like, third-eye wide open kinda stuff.

And since the Sun is in Leo (the sign of courage, heart, and personal expression) it’s asking you:

“What are you really here to do? And are you finally ready to step up and live it out loud?”
Aquarius Full Moon Energy
Now add this: a Full Moon in Aquarius landing on or just around this same time?
That’s like lighting a match in a wind tunnel.

Aquarius is ruled by Uranus — the planet of shakeups, innovation, liberation, and cosmic downloads. It’s the rebel, the visionary, the outsider who sees the system and says, “Nope. We can do better.”

So this Moon isn’t just about lighting candles and charging crystals.
It’s about seeing the matrix and choosing to break it.

It’s likely going to bring a few plot twists. Expect surprising insights, truth bombs, or sudden emotional shifts — especially around friendships, community, and your role in the collective.
