The Lion's Gate Portal: The astrological event and how it affects you

The Lion’s Gate is an astrological event resulting from the Sun aligning with the star Sirius and Earth. It takes place during Leo season, opening a portal of the heightened cosmic energy of abundance. It lasts from July 28-Aug. 12, peaking on Aug. 8. This year was a more powerful year in that Aug. 8, 2024, numerically reduces to 8-8-8 (8th month, 8th day, 2024+2+0+2+4=8 year). *The number 8 numerologically is the balance between the spiritual and material world.

Finding Your North Node

By Sabrina Matheny • Rumble Contributor | The north node in your astrological chart points to what your soul wants to experience in this lifetime. I consider this information to be invaluable! We tend to repeat our patterns, not realizing that we are relying on our old responses instead of making the effort to learn new ways to approach our lives. All of us come into the world with skills we have perfected in other lifetimes. The north node points to which of those skills will continue to serve us, how to utilize them and which ones are preventing us from meeting our spiritual goals.
