What is the Lions Gate Astrological Event?
The Lions Gate is a cosmic event that occurs annually between July 26th and August 12th, with the peak on August 8th. It is named after the astrological sign Leo, represented by the lion, due to its alignment with the star Sirius, also known as the "Spiritual Sun." Sirius is the brightest star in the sky and holds great significance in many ancient cultures.

Manifestation Ritual
1. Prepare your Radiance Tea in a beautiful cup and have a small bowl for mixing your anointing oil. Remember that abundance is already present in all of us, and the more present we are the more we can expand into it. So make a cosy nook, and turn off all devices and distractions for this precious moment for you.
2. Pour your Radiance Tea and for a moment hold your cup close to your heart, close your eyes, and take in three long breaths. Open your eyes and have a sip of tea.
3. We start with a meditation to come into connection with our radiant heart. The power of Leo season enables us to more easily reside in our true heart, where we know our true heart's desire, yet this meditation and practice is potent at any time of year. Close your eyes once more and allow your attention to settle on your heart. Breathe slowly for a further 8 breaths, seeing the breath radiate out from your heart and come back into a single golden dot in your heart. You have now purified and activated your heart. Open your eyes and have some more tea.
4. Explore your true heart's desire to set your golden manifestation intention at this time. What do I truly want to be? To experience? To do? To behold? The first thing that comes is perfect. If a limiting belief also surfaces, this is an excellent tool - flip the belief into an affirmation to become your daily mantra. For example; if you hear "that's not possible for me" create a mantra that encapsulates your desire and the reverse of the belief such as: "Deep peace is possible for me now".
5. Pick up your Essential Massage Oil and Abundance Essential Oil and feel the Light energy present in these products. Into your little bowl place 3 pumps of the oil and 3 drops of the essential oil. Hold the bowl and direct your intention into it.
6. Now apply the oil to your skin, which can be over your heart, or forearm, in a figure 8 representing infinity to imbue your intention into your being.
7. Continue to do this daily, and you can also use your oil to massage into your body for a daily healthy practice, each time focusing on your intention.
8. You may also wish to journal how you can create ways for your intention to manifest, and begin to record the ways it does. Hold gratitude for each day, for each manifestation - the large & the small.
