THE POWER OF THE 8/8 LION'S GATE

[00:00:01] Speaker A: Welcome to Woowooville, the next stop on your spiritual journey. Hosted by two fellow travelers who found a soul connection on the path to higher consciousness. Our goal is to help you navigate the choppy waters you're likely to encounter on the spiritual path by sharing our experiences with you each week. Join us as we spill the tea on what it's like to wake up to your authentic source. Hi, I am Lola Singer and I. [00:00:30] Speaker B: Am with my co host and I am Emeril. [00:00:33] Speaker A: And just in case anybody needs a little reminder, I this is a spiritual broadcast for people who are new to the spiritual journey so they can learn some things that. Well, basically things we wished we'd figured out earlier on. Right. Emerald and FYI, I have been on the spiritual path for quite some time. I am a tarot reader. I speak and sing in light language. I do intuitive art where I draw people's spirit guides. So I'm well ensconced in the Woo Woo. So I think I've got my street cred. How about you? [00:01:14] Speaker B: Well, I'm on the fast track but I've also feel like I've been kind of. It's just a bizarre world and right when we think we know something, it just changes. So I always describe myself as a. I'm a forever learner of the wisdom that just comes through and I'm just gonna leave it at that. I don't know everything. We both don't know everything. But we have experienced a lot. So that's why we got some, some great stuff to share with you guys. [00:01:42] Speaker A: Yeah. And since our goal is to help you understand things we didn't really fully understand early in our spiritual journey. One of the things that came up for me recently is I was teaching, teaching someone tarot and I talked about the 88 Lionsgate. And much to my surprise, she wasn't aware of the Lion's Gate because you know, it's just something in the spiritual community that people talk about so much you just assume most people know about it. So that's exactly what our broadcast is for. Right? [00:02:11] Speaker B: Right. [00:02:12] Speaker A: So we're gonna let you know about it. And it's something that happens every year. So one of the things she had kind of heard of it last year and she just assumed it was a one time event. So we're here to tell everyone who's new. No, it's a very, very powerful portal of time for manifestation and it happens every year around this time. But it builds up to eight, eight, doesn't it? [00:02:41] Speaker B: Yep. [00:02:41] Speaker A: So you have the exact dates Right, Yep. [00:02:46] Speaker B: So usually it's from. It starts out in July 26th and it runs all the way to August 12th. [00:02:53] Speaker A: So you might want to write that down if you're not aware of it, because this is considered a time where there's great fertility, which means you're able to manifest even more easily. So there's a little caveat that goes with that. Yeah, watch what you're. Watch what you're focusing on. Because it's so powerful, if you're focusing on the negative, you're likely to manifest. [00:03:17] Speaker B: That as well as it peaks on 8. 8, which in numerology, of course, it's all about abundance. So it's just. It's almost like you get that extra amp of energy and it's up to each one of us to decide where do I want to put this to use or what things can I use, what can I do with this energy of this portal to help me with my spiritual awakening? [00:03:42] Speaker A: Yeah, I'm glad you brought that up because we know an 8 is an infinity sign, right? So. Yes, so that's, that's why it's, it's a catchy phrase, eight, eight, Lionsgate. But it really has a lot of power behind it. And that's because it goes back to ancient Egypt, doesn't it? [00:03:58] Speaker B: Yep. So back in ancient Egypt, it was tied to the goddess Isis. Also it's aligned during that time is when the Earth, the sun and the planet, Ceres, Sirius. Sirius is aligned. So that's what. [00:04:17] Speaker A: Aligned to what? To the pyramids in Egypt. It lines up perfectly to the pyramids. So this was a time that our ancient ancestors were watching the skies because they knew it was a powerful time. And it also coincides with the flooding of the Nile. And whenever the Nile flooded, that brought in the agriculture for the year. So this is a time when the priests and priests. I can't speak either. The priests and priestesses were working very hard on focusing on abundant crops, on everything being fulfilling for the population. So our ancestors, our ancient ancestors definitely knew about this portal and they were watching for it every year. [00:05:09] Speaker B: So let's break it down into. I did a search of just how the Lion's Gate assist us in our spiritual awakening. So the Lion Gates portal, which peaks on August 8, is believed to be a powerful time for spiritual awakening and, and personal growth. The celestial event marked by the align of the sun series and Earth is thought to bring heightened energy and spiritual clarity, facilitating deeper self awareness and connection with one's higher self. It's a time when an individual can release old patterns, set intentions for positive change, and manifest their desires with greater ease. [00:05:54] Speaker A: Yep. And that's all because of the alignment of the planet. [00:05:58] Speaker B: Yep. [00:06:00] Speaker A: So there's definitely something to, you know, all that ancient astrology and the reason why all of these monoliths and the pyramids are. Are aligned to certain star systems on special days, you know, like. Like, it's cool. Like in the Mayan, it's not on 88, but one of the celestial events is when the Quetzalcoatl stairs look like they're. They get lit up, right? [00:06:27] Speaker B: Yes. There's two times when that happens. Yeah, it's. It's. To me, what's fascinating must be equinox, then. Yeah, it's the equinox on the equinox, on both equinoxes. But what's really fascinating to me is, like, here they are, like, trying to tell us that these, like, primitive cultures, but yet these cultures knew all about alignments, planetary alignments, and building their structures specifically to showcase how well they knew these planet alignments. So there was nothing ever primitive about these past cultures, in other words. [00:07:06] Speaker A: Well, and especially this particular Lionsgate 88, because it was used for bringing the crops in, you know, so. So another thing that I think people forget, this has been going on for millennia and millennia and millennia. And the older a system is, the more people in the past and in the present have given their energy to focusing on this. So it becomes very powerful over time. So the fact that this has been something that hasn't been forgotten completely about means that people. People have been carrying on this energy, you know, throughout generations. [00:07:47] Speaker B: Well, and then the other thing, too, if we bring it into present times, look at the solar flare activity that's been going on, that's just amplifying already the energy. So by doing that, it just creates this portal to be just that much more. That's much more powerful. Really? [00:08:06] Speaker A: Yeah. So I guess the point being this used to be used on a large scale, but you can apply it on a personal scale now and still tie into this ancient energy that's never really fully died out. The embers keep glowing on this, so you might as well take advantage of the situation and use that energy to have. Help yourself with your own personal goals. [00:08:38] Speaker B: Yep. So it's kind of like. So what I also. Part of the. When I found out this information, it also, I have a list of. Here's how the Lion's Gate portal can assist with spiritual awakening. So our first one is amplified energy and spiritual clarity. The portal's High frequency energy is believed to accelerate spiritual growth and facilitate a deeper connection with one's inner self. This heightened energy can bring clarity to one's purpose, release limiting beliefs, and inspire positive changes. So again, we talked about the amplified energy, but it's really what we're here for is we are here to learn how to manipulate energy. So when you are more aware of this big surges of energy and you can really direct that energy into, like Lola said, into help you personally or help you with a certain thing you want to set an intention for, think of how powerful and how much more efficient that will be. [00:09:41] Speaker A: But it's also why I wanted to go back to something I said earlier. That's why you want to choose wisely what you're focusing on. [00:09:47] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:09:47] Speaker A: Because if you're focusing on all the things that aren't working well, guess what you're going to get more of during a manifestation portal. [00:09:54] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:09:55] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:09:55] Speaker B: And you know, the thing is, because I read on this that we you get when you start out. So even if, let's say you do start with something happens that puts you in a bad mood. For example, you have a few seconds to shift that energy. So don't ever fear, feel powerless. It's like, oh, I already messed it up. All you have to do is like do something as simple as like laughing, for example. It's a good way to shift out negative energy to positive energy. And the best part about laughing, even if you pretend to laugh, it will still have the same effect. [00:10:31] Speaker A: Yeah. And then another thing I heard someone who's a manifestation coach say, when you get those thoughts that aren't working in your favor, just release them with love. [00:10:39] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:10:40] Speaker A: So it's not like you don't want to. You, you don't go, oh, I'm such a dope. I did that. No, you just. Oh, I. Okay, I caught it. Now I'm just going to release it with love. [00:10:49] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:10:49] Speaker A: So then you can focus on the positive. [00:10:51] Speaker B: There's like also deep breathing. You can just like take a few deep breaths and then just imagine that thought coming in when you breathe in and then imagine it letting it out when you breathe out. [00:11:02] Speaker A: You know, I just thought too clapping and snapping kind of breaks up the energy, you know, kind of brings you. Brings you into the back to the now. [00:11:12] Speaker B: So any tricks you can use toning is excellent too. [00:11:16] Speaker A: I tone all the time. [00:11:19] Speaker B: That's why I was looking at you. [00:11:21] Speaker A: That's part of my light language. Oh, yeah. I release a lot of energy through my voice. Yeah. So I Guess that's what we wanted to let people know about, is you have the power to watch your thinking and monitor it. And this is the time to really, really use that to your advantage. [00:11:40] Speaker B: All right, so the second thing which really aligns with what we're talking about is release of old patterns and limiting beliefs. The Lionsgate portal encourages letting go of what no longer serves, making space for new beginnings and personal transformation. This is a good time to release past hurt, negative thought patterns, and any obstacles hindering spiritual growth. [00:12:03] Speaker A: Okay. Now, this is extremely powerful for this particular Lion's Gate, because Amarl told me something I wasn't aware of. What's happening the day after? 8. 8. [00:12:14] Speaker B: We have a full moon in Aquarius. [00:12:16] Speaker A: Ah. So we got the Lion's Gate, which is a powerful time to release, augmented by a full moon, which is a powerful time to release. [00:12:25] Speaker B: Yeah. And it's in the sign of Aquarius. So a few things that I've learned about Aquarius on their evolved form, they are the sign that is the most emotionally evolved. So in other words, this is why it's so powerful. Because those emotions that you still like, those old patterns that you haven't been able to release, the energy is here to assist you to evolve emotionally, to be able to let those things out and let them go for good. [00:12:56] Speaker A: And I love Aquarians because they're also about revolution, rebellion, and so why not. Why not be rebellious, then step into the best life you possibly can imagine right now? [00:13:06] Speaker B: And the other thing about Aquarius, because this is, like, I like to get my little information. They're known as the sign that can detach the easiest from attachments, which is good. [00:13:20] Speaker A: I don't know about that. They might at a personal level, but they care about humanity so much, they can. They want all of humanity to prosper, so it's hard for them to let go of that. [00:13:31] Speaker B: Let me clear that statement. [00:13:32] Speaker A: Okay. [00:13:32] Speaker B: Detach from the things that are no longer a. Assisting them. [00:13:36] Speaker A: I see. Yes. [00:13:37] Speaker B: So that energy really helps with releasing, like, clearing old patterns, for example, or old things that have been negative. Patterns that you have caught on, that we all have ourselves to be able to release them for good. [00:13:51] Speaker A: So with an Aquarian energy, you don't have to be Aquarian to take advantage of this full moon being an Aquarius. So why not focus on what you can do at an individual level that might benefit all of humanity ultimately? [00:14:06] Speaker B: Mm. [00:14:06] Speaker A: Because that's what Aquarians love. I want humanity to prosper. [00:14:10] Speaker B: So I'm gonna give you guys a little cheat trick of the Things that I do on full moons that I absolutely love to do is I like to do a list. And on the top of the list, I put the date on to hold myself accountable. I write down what things am I ready to let go of? And I start writing down all the things that you would like to let go. Because then what you're doing is you're bringing it up, you're holding yourself accountable when you're writing them and you're. That. That energy from that full moon really assists with you. After I'm done with writing it, I just kind of set the intention to have a time to yourself. I read them out loud, I burn the paper and I let them go. And as I let them go, I just like really visualize and really set the energy of. I am ready to part with this. And on the side thing of that too, you can do a list of what things you would like to bring in. Because remember, as we let go of things, we make space for new things to come in. So you can do a list for what things you would like to bring in as well. Anything you would like to add to that. [00:15:18] Speaker A: Well, you can. I think the most important thing is just being really introspective and honest with yourself about really what. What isn't serving you anymore. And that can be difficult if it's something that feels safe as part of your safety or perceived safety. So just, you know, it's a time to take a really honest look at yourself. You can also do cleansing rituals, you know, so that's a good time to bring your sage out. It's also good time to. A lot of people do full moon baths. [00:15:53] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:15:54] Speaker A: So you could bathe with some salt water or put a little salt in the shower. Meditating under the moon if it's not raining. [00:16:04] Speaker B: Yeah. Or you can still do it under the moon, like inside your own. [00:16:08] Speaker A: That's true. [00:16:09] Speaker B: Because you're still. The moon's still there, you're still getting that energy. [00:16:12] Speaker A: I'm lucky because the way my cabin faces, if it's not raining, the full moon comes right through the windows. [00:16:19] Speaker B: That's awesome. [00:16:20] Speaker A: So I can bathe in the moon. I can have a moon bath. Yeah. Also, I think Sirius is one of the brightest stars this time of year. So you could be looking at Sirius and feeling the energy of the Sirians. Because people, people, people, we all have Sirian DNA in us. We've got DNA from many, many, many different planetary cultures. And the reason why there are so many people who are feeling that pull towards Sirius is Because it's part of your body, it's part of your makeup. You know, I think that the. Every culture I can think of that's tribal pays attention to Sirius. [00:17:03] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:17:04] Speaker A: Especially the Native Americans here. [00:17:06] Speaker B: Yep. [00:17:07] Speaker A: So they know that they're starseeds. And then. And they. And a lot of them feel that pull toward that particular star, those. Those particular star system. Their. Sirius A, there's Sirius B. But anyway. Oh, just a sidebar. I've worked with so many people over the years. If you have a natural affinity toward whales and dolphins in the ocean, there's a good chance you have a Syrian connection, just FYI. [00:17:35] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. All right, so we have number three. It's enhanced manifestation and intention Setting the portals. Energy is believed to be potent for manifesting intentions and dreams. Individuals can use this time to visualize their goals, set intentions, and align with their desired outcomes. [00:17:55] Speaker A: This is the time not to think small. [00:17:57] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:17:59] Speaker A: Think of your highest potential right now. [00:18:02] Speaker B: So I was actually tuning into this guy that was talking about the full moon right after the Lionsgate portal, and he was addressing how important it is because of the Lion's Gate and because of the moon aligned with the couriers not to like to dream big and to really send it out there, because the universe does not know size. It doesn't know the differences between, like, it's a small thing or a big thing. It's like, why not really align with the things you want to really bring forth? [00:18:36] Speaker A: I've got another thing that I know we've talked about other podcasts, but embarrass, repeating. So let's say you have. You're manifesting. You do not want to use the word not, even though I just used the word not, because. Let's use an example. Let's say you want to improve your health. Okay. So you don't want to say I am not sick or I am not injured because the universe is hearing I and injured. I am sick. And actually, that's what you're thinking about, Right. If you say I'm not sick, you're thinking about sick, aren't you? [00:19:08] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:19:10] Speaker A: And your subconscious knows that. So instead, you want to turn that into the positive. So I am healthy. I am feeling the best I've ever felt. [00:19:19] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:19:20] Speaker A: You know, I. You know, let's say if you've had an injury, I'm enjoying running. It's wonderful. [00:19:26] Speaker B: You know, I am grateful for my body. I am grateful for my health. [00:19:31] Speaker A: Yes. So please avoid the word not when you're trying to manifest, because it doesn't really probably take you where you want to go. [00:19:39] Speaker B: Yes. And we've all been there. I mean, it's one of those things we learned. But it's almost like the more you. Your I am is very powerful. But also, even aligning with giving things for already having it as if you're already experiencing it, that really amps things up when you're setting intentions. [00:20:02] Speaker A: Oh, can I do a little sidebar about what happened with me yesterday, then? Yes, because I set the intention, but I've seen other people do this declaration, which is in the morning, you say, okay, universe, show me how good it can get. You know, if I'm worthy of love, show me love. And I said that out loud. And my cat came, and she just cuddled up and rubbed against my leg at that time. And I went, oh, I get it. It's just the small things. It's like, okay, I do have love. She's right here. Now you. She just made noise, too. She's climbing on the furniture. But that wasn't the end of it. So then I had to run an errand to go get some printer paper at the store. And on the way there, I saw a license plate in front of me, and it was amazing because it was CHG, like, change 8888. So talk about your 88 Lionsgate. So I knew that things were going right. And then I remembered on the way there, oh, I have a free coupon for a car wash. So I just. And that was, like, just a couple blocks after I had seen that license plate. So, oh, yeah, let's go use the free car wash coupon. And then I went and got my paper, and my paper was on sale. I went specifically for that paper, and it was. It was being featured. And then I stopped to go get some coffee on the way home, and I forgot I had a punch card and I had a free coffee. [00:21:30] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:21:31] Speaker A: So these are the little things that are showing you. You know, when you make this declaration, you think something big is going to happen. But these were a bunch of little things showing what I already had. Going back to what you're saying, show how grateful you are that I've got the love of a cat and that I, you know. Oh, yeah, the punch cards full. You know, it just seems so small. But it isn't. [00:21:53] Speaker B: It isn't, because the universe communicates with you through symbols and through synchronicities because it can't give you the information. But when you have your eyes open to see those little hints and those little. Those things that you think they're little, but they're not because they're taking you to where you need to go. So I love that. I love being able to share stories that have things like that that happen. So I'm so happy for you, Lola. [00:22:23] Speaker A: Well, you've been doing really well at manifesting lately because you've been focusing on the positive. [00:22:28] Speaker B: Yes. I think that when we do. You know what's really funny that that's like when you just start tuning out the old ways that you used to think of how maybe at times, because we all have those. Those times where we don't feel that great or we feel like life isn't going too well for us. But when you are certain and all you do is like, for example, for me, I do like affirmations before I go to bed of just gratitude in the morning. And I do mindfulness. As far as meditating, clearing myself. How can you not live a good life? Like, it's just for me. And the universe responds to that. There is a difference. When you are sending the energy of your certain that my life can only get better from this point. And now you're opening all these possibilities and when you have your eyes open, you're able to see them. Because sometimes too when it's. It's interesting because I used to do this and I'm going to give you guys something that to catch yourselves on that will really help you to break out of certain cycles is I would do everything in the morning and set myself good and be all cleared up and stuff. And then I would go to work and then I would. Something would happen and instead of me clearing it, I would run with that energy. So it's almost like got all myself prepped up and stuff and it's like someone pooped in my energy and then I was down for the count the whole day until I got home and cleared myself. So when somebody or when a situation dumps on you that you didn't expect, use little techniques to change that energy. Like one little thing does not define your whole day. [00:24:10] Speaker A: Yeah, but a lot of people let that spiral, don't they? [00:24:13] Speaker B: Yes. And, but. And I was one of those people. So that's why I'm giving you advice. Like if you can break from that little pattern of not allowing a situation or a person to ruin your day, you will really see some results. Start seeing results, I should say. [00:24:28] Speaker A: And it does take some practice. [00:24:29] Speaker B: Yep. So kind of brings us to our next one. Number four, deepening spiritual connection. The Lions Gate Portal can facilitate a stronger Connection with one's higher self, intuition and spiritual guides. This heightened connection can lead to a greater sense of purpose, meaning, and spiritual understanding. [00:24:50] Speaker A: Yeah, it's supposed to be time when the veil's thinner. [00:24:52] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:24:53] Speaker A: So it's a time for downloads, uploads, downloads, spiritual guidance that comes through in ways that maybe you don't even expect. [00:25:04] Speaker B: Yep. [00:25:05] Speaker A: You know, I think a lot of people. It goes back to trusting your Claire's. You know, and I think a lot of times we get. There's a voice in our head telling us stuff. Right. And there's a tendency to discount it, but now would be the time to just allow yourself to be an open channel for that, because there should be some good wisdom coming through for the next couple days. [00:25:29] Speaker B: And the thing about the Lion's Gate is it deals with lions, and lions are also connected to the sign of Leo. [00:25:36] Speaker A: We didn't even talk about that yet. [00:25:38] Speaker B: Yeah, well, that's why we're gonna talk about it. [00:25:40] Speaker A: It's so obvious. We should talk about that earlier. [00:25:43] Speaker B: Yeah. So right now it's Leo season. In those Leos, they're like, it's the sign that's connected to the heart chakra. So what brings us to number 5? It's heart chakra activation. The Lion's Gate portal is associated with Leo, the zodiac sign of the heart, making it a potent time for heart chakra activation and healing. This can lead to a greater self, Love, compassion, and the ability to connect with others on a deeper level. I have a lot of Leos in my life. [00:26:18] Speaker A: I associate it with the solar plexus, so I'm confused about that. [00:26:22] Speaker B: Yeah. Leo's is more connected because it's the. [00:26:24] Speaker A: Sun and the solar plexus, because Leo is exalted in the sun in astrology. [00:26:30] Speaker B: But I think it's both, if you think about it, because. [00:26:32] Speaker A: Well, there's a connection because they're. They're next to each other. [00:26:35] Speaker B: Yeah. And there's definitely, like, the proud standing, your power. [00:26:39] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:26:39] Speaker B: That's the solar plexus. I totally get that. I. Well, when I have done any kind of meditations, when I tune into the Leo, it's about the heart and the solar plexus. [00:26:49] Speaker A: Well, that's the perfect time to picture your 8 exactly. Wrapping around both those chakras. [00:26:54] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:26:55] Speaker A: Let that energy flow. I had not heard that it was the heart chakra ever. You have? [00:27:02] Speaker B: Yes. [00:27:03] Speaker A: I always thought it was, because the sun. The sun. And Leo is the natural planet that goes with Leo in the zodiac. [00:27:10] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. [00:27:11] Speaker A: I can see how they could Both work together because they're right, like I said, right next to each other. See, I'm learning something new every day too. [00:27:18] Speaker B: And I think that's exactly. Just nailed it on the head. It's. It's. They're both working together because if you think about it, your inner power does have to have connection. [00:27:28] Speaker A: Do you say lionhearted? Don't they? [00:27:29] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:27:32] Speaker A: I just realized that that's a common English term. [00:27:35] Speaker B: That is a common English term. But I. I'm not gonna, like, I. It's not like I've known this my entire life because I've been going into, like, certain signs and, like, what they provide and stuff like I said about Aquarius. And the. Right away when I type in, like, what sign that, like. And I challenge you guys too. Like what. Whatever sign you are, type in what. What chakra is it connected to? And sometimes there's signs. There are more than one sign. [00:28:04] Speaker A: There's also body parts of the body that the signs are connected to. [00:28:09] Speaker B: Exactly what organs they're connected to. It's really fascinating, actually. [00:28:13] Speaker A: Like, I think Gemini's arms, because there's like two. They seem separate, but they're. Yeah, they're connected. [00:28:19] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [00:28:21] Speaker A: Oh, we know where Scorpio is. [00:28:23] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:28:24] Speaker A: On the body. [00:28:25] Speaker B: Yes. [00:28:25] Speaker A: In the nether regions. [00:28:27] Speaker B: Yes. It is actually funny enough. [00:28:31] Speaker A: Well, that goes with Scorpio. [00:28:33] Speaker B: That is true. [00:28:35] Speaker A: You guys can look this up online. You'll. Not only the chakras, but body parts that go with your sunshine. [00:28:43] Speaker B: Yeah. There's just so much things to learn, and it's. It's fascinating some of the things that they have also. Like, for example, when you have. What I do is like I tap into a certain sign for help. Like Lola said. She just brought up a good point. You don't have to be that sign in order to tune into that energy to help to assist you with whatever you're going through. [00:29:07] Speaker A: Well, that signs could be somewhere in your chart. [00:29:09] Speaker B: Yeah, exactly. Because we're not just one sign too. So the last part that I was looking through was how to harness the Lionsgate portals energy. So the first thing it has is meditation, which I'm not surprised. Practice guided or self meditations to connect with the portal's energy, release stagnant energy and set intentions. [00:29:34] Speaker A: Oh, I. So this would be a really good time to feel into those two chakras and feel your courage and feel like a Leo that has the spotlight shining on him or her. Really feel powerful and confident. I like that. I like that. [00:29:53] Speaker B: And think about this too. So if it's connected to the heart chakra. In our heart chakra, we have a lot of like, I mean, as well as our sacral, but we have a lot of our things like emotions and how we see certain things. And sometimes in our heart, we're like seeing ourselves in a complete different light than the way we should see ourselves. And this is all of us, because obviously we're all trying to heal. None of us can say, oh, we're perfectly like in this. We see ourselves with the best light. And yes, we do try to see ourselves with the best light, but doesn't mean that all the time we all have things we need to work on. [00:30:28] Speaker A: I think we have moments of doing that and it feels great. So tap into that right now if you can. You know, that's one of the things I've been trying that's actually on my vision board for this year, increasing my confidence. So why not? Why not use this time for that? [00:30:43] Speaker B: Exactly. So another thing to harness the Lionsgate portal is journaling. Reflect on your thoughts, emotions and insights during this time to gain a deeper understanding of your spiritual journey. [00:30:57] Speaker A: Well, you are a big proponent of journaling. [00:31:00] Speaker B: I am a huge journaler. I feel like I have so many journals, but now what I've realized is I can't always bring my big, huge journal with me. So they have pocket sized ones, you guys, and the pocket size ones are great because through the day there'll be something that you're like, man, that really gets to me or that really, that what I just heard really aligns with me because of this. And I just write it down so that later on when I'm like giving like gratitude, when I'm writing down what I'm grateful for through the day, I bring it with me. And when I travel, I don't bring my regular journal. I always bring like a smaller journal because I'd like, want to make more room. [00:31:40] Speaker A: Well, you know, you can just get one of those little small notebooks at the dollar store. [00:31:44] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:31:45] Speaker A: It doesn't have to be a fancy journal. [00:31:47] Speaker B: Yep. [00:31:48] Speaker A: But yeah, it's a good idea to write that down if you can. Or, you know, you could, I guess you can put it in your notes. That would be a modern version of that. But there's something about the handwriting, it, that, that makes it a more powerful connection. [00:31:58] Speaker B: You're putting. Because you're. It says like you're using more of your. Like you're using your touch, you're using your feelings because you're being expressed through paper and you're Putting your own energy to it because you're the one writing it. [00:32:11] Speaker A: Yeah. Because intention, it needs to be a mental intention, but it. It's powerless with. Without adding the energy of the heart to it. [00:32:20] Speaker B: Yep. And another thing that I have, just like, I was told since, like, and it really resonated with me was to try to use a red pen, because red is a color that really aligns with, like, your passions, like, what you feel strong about. [00:32:35] Speaker A: Yeah. But if anybody studied accounting, you know what red means in accounting? [00:32:40] Speaker B: No. [00:32:40] Speaker A: It means you're in debt. [00:32:43] Speaker B: Yeah. I just. [00:32:43] Speaker A: So there are going to be people who won't want the red pen. [00:32:46] Speaker B: Yeah. You don't have to use a red paper. [00:32:47] Speaker A: I used to work in retail back in the day when, you know, people wrote checks and, you know, pens always disappear from the counter. I remember handing a red pen to somebody one time and he refused to write a check in red pen. [00:32:58] Speaker B: That's so funny. [00:32:59] Speaker A: I get that, though. So it's just your training and what, you know, I respect what you're doing. I'm just letting you know there's going to be some. Some people who will never write with a red pen. [00:33:08] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [00:33:08] Speaker A: To try to manifest. [00:33:09] Speaker B: I always like to use the red. [00:33:10] Speaker A: Pen because they're always going to see that as debt. But you do you. Why not use gold pen? Use a gold pen for lion's gate. [00:33:18] Speaker B: Yeah. Make it exciting. [00:33:18] Speaker A: Use your favorite color, green for money. Go for it. [00:33:22] Speaker B: Ye. [00:33:22] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:33:23] Speaker B: The other thing is setting intentions clearly define your goals and desires for personal growth and transformation. It's funny too, about setting intentions. I have a little story to tell you guys. So since I got back from my trip, I've been really busy. And I did. I was like 100% clear. And I put. And I send it out to the universe of. I would like. I really like, would like to bring in abundance. What I wasn't clear about was how. How the abundance should come in. So all of a sudden I'm like, over, like, so busy. And I was like, okay, I need to specify my intentions that my abundance is not just from physical work. I was tired. I. I just told Lola, I'm like, last Sunday because I've been working six days a week, all of a sudden, out of like, nowhere. And last Sunday I was so tired and my back was hurting and my arm felt sore, and I said no. And so when I finally caught on to the fact that, hey, wait a second, I kind of did this to myself because I did was not intentional about what I meant. So all of a sudden, I switched it and I'm like, I really. I. I trust that abundance is a frequency and it's everywhere. And I am looking forward to receiving abundance not just from physical work, but from other sources and unexpected sources. Yes. And funny enough, next week I get some time off and something man big. [00:34:59] Speaker A: Manifested that you've been wanting. [00:35:01] Speaker B: Yeah. So just. Just like this setting intentions. It's like, really be clear about your intentions. [00:35:07] Speaker A: There's a tip that. And I. I notice a lot of people do this. They add with ease at the end of their manifest. So you could have said, I, I will. I'm manifesting abundance with ease. [00:35:20] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:35:20] Speaker A: That would have made it less than six days of work every week for the last couple weeks. [00:35:26] Speaker B: Three weeks. Yes. So just. Yeah, it's just one of those things that is just interesting to catch yourself on and like, oh, I did ask for abundance. [00:35:36] Speaker A: We're all learning. We're all learning. I forget these things sometimes, too. [00:35:42] Speaker B: Yeah. So another way to harness the lions gets a portal, is releasing what no longer serves. Consciously let go of old patterns, beliefs, and emotions that are holding you back. [00:35:55] Speaker A: Well, especially since the full moon is part of this, because the full moon energy starts, like a couple days before the full moon. So it's lining up perfectly with the lion's gate. If the lion's gate's on the 8th and the full moon's on the 9th. [00:36:06] Speaker B: Yep. And we all. There's always emotions that are holding us back. Like, if you have to be fully honest, like, what is the emotion that you feel? Like it's really holding you back that you can't move forward. [00:36:19] Speaker A: Oh, come on. It's fear. It's always fear. [00:36:22] Speaker B: Well, there's fear and there's other emotions as well, too. [00:36:25] Speaker A: It breaks down to fear. [00:36:31] Speaker B: Then another thing to do is nature connection. Spend time out, nature to ground or grounding yourself. And my friend told me, like, I think that with these crazy energies, you really have to ground more than once. Because a lot of us, including myself, I was grounding once a day, and that was clearly not enough. I feel so buzzy. I would come home and I would take a nap, which is probably a good way to just unload all these energies. But nonetheless, like, just get into practice of grounding throughout the day, especially when you feel like you have so many. So much energy, or you picked up so much energy. [00:37:07] Speaker A: We have an entire podcast about grounding. An hour's talk about grounding, if you go through the archives. [00:37:13] Speaker B: Yep. So spend time on nature, ground yourself, and absorb the Portal's energy. Because that energy, that is really good, positive energy too, that's coming in so you can absorb it as well as ground the excess that you don't need. Need. [00:37:27] Speaker A: I've been drumming a lot lately. O. That's a good way to ground. Yeah. [00:37:32] Speaker B: Kind of funny enough. Brings us to our next one. Is crystals and sound healing Incorporate crystals and sound. [00:37:38] Speaker A: I don't know. Do you think I know anything about that? Amaral, you have no idea how many crystals are in this cabin. [00:37:45] Speaker B: Yeah, and skulls incorporate crystals and sound healing practices to enhance your connection with the portals energy. [00:37:55] Speaker A: Well, that would go with your manifestation. So if you've got some crystals at home, you might want to double check what they traditionally are energetically related to, and then maybe use your favorites. And quartz crystal is always a good one because it's an amplifier for everything, including sound. [00:38:14] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:38:15] Speaker A: So sound is intention. So I speak and sing in light language. But you don't have to have that particular skill to use your voice. This is why it's a good idea, after you've written your intentions in your journal, to say them out loud. [00:38:31] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:38:31] Speaker A: And say them with confidence, like a Leo. That's called the Voice of the Magus. So you don't sit there and go, I am. I am manifesting abundance with ease. No, you want to say like, I am manifesting abundance with ease. You know, like a confident actor or actress. You just say it out loud and proud. So, yes, use your Mars voice or your Voice of the Magus and everyone can say something like that out loud. You don't have to sing, you don't have to chant, you don't have to tone. Those are all great ways, though. [00:39:10] Speaker B: Yep. [00:39:11] Speaker A: Especially amplify with. With the crystals. But if you think you can't sing, that's okay. Just say your declarations out loud. [00:39:20] Speaker B: Exactly. And then the last thing listed here is connect with like minded community. Connect with like minded individuals to share experiences and amplify the collective's energy. [00:39:35] Speaker A: Easier said than done for some people. So that's why we have this. This particular podcast. So we're here to be part of your expanded network of friends. But if you are lucky enough to have a community that you can join in and work with together, that's great. That could be friends. But it also could be your first time at a certain ceremony, like a drum ceremony, or your first time going to a cacao ceremony. Whatever it is, you never know where you're gonna find someone who's similar to you. Oh, it was so funny last Friday. When I was at. Mystical Wares is our sponsor. It's a store in Mount Vernon, Washington. And by the way, they also have a website, mysticalwares.com. they sell great stuff. But the most important thing, I think, is the Shungite. Shungite helps deal with all kinds of nasty energies and diffuses that. But anyway, I digress. But on Friday, I had not one, but two people talk to me for the longest times, just about their lives because they didn't have anyone else they can talk to. And they both said that to me. It was like, it's so nice to have someone who I can tell these things to. That's sad, but it's realistic. [00:40:58] Speaker B: It's realistic, too. [00:41:00] Speaker A: So you never know where you're going to find a listening ear like me. Okay. And the things that they were talking about. Yeah, most people would think it was absolutely. Your average person would be like, okay, I'm getting away from you as soon as possible because you're not part of this planet. But what they were saying to me, because I've learned things about esoterics like, oh, yeah, I know what you're talking about. Yeah, okay. Oh, yeah, okay. So you never know. It could be someone that you didn't even expect turn out to be a good, at least sounding board for you. [00:41:33] Speaker B: And also another thing too, which, since we're talking about community. So if you live in the Skagit county or surroundings, this Sunday is Lola's Drum Circle, which is held in Stanwood. And if you'd like more information about that, if you just get into our. [00:41:52] Speaker A: Well, actually, it's on my website. That's the easiest way. [00:41:54] Speaker B: Yep. [00:41:55] Speaker A: If you. If you're interested in the Drumming circle, it's. It's free. There's a donation for a nonprofit, but you don't have to pay if you don't have the funds for that, everyone's welcome. And if you go to www.lolasinger.com, you'll see the information about the drum circle and where it's at, the address and everything. [00:42:15] Speaker B: And it starts at 10:00am this Sunday. [00:42:18] Speaker A: Yes. Which I know some people don't like to get up at 10am on a Sunday, but it's perfect because it ends around noon and you can go have a nice brunch afterwards. [00:42:27] Speaker B: It's so worth it. [00:42:28] Speaker A: We call it Sunday Morning Therap because we work as a group, we talk how we're all feeling, and then we set intention for drumming and songs that are meant to release energy and also to bring in the energy we want so that should be very powerful with the Lionsgate and the full moon. [00:42:50] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:42:51] Speaker A: Yeah. And they're once a month. They're never on the same week of the month because we have to work around my friends schedule at her equine center, which is where the drum circle is held. But just check my website. It's got the upcoming dates there. So if you can't come this time, you'll see the other dates. [00:43:09] Speaker B: Yep. That's a great way to build on community. [00:43:12] Speaker A: Oh, plus you don't have to have a drum because we have extra drums and rattles we share. Okay. So, yes, that's a great way to celebrate the Lion's Gate. I think. I think one of the. The things we didn't talk about it was kind of related to courage and stuff. But this. This is a time of self empowerment. [00:43:32] Speaker B: Yes. [00:43:32] Speaker A: And I. That's. I think one of my favorite things is to watch people empower themselves. [00:43:37] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:43:38] Speaker A: So that's why we want you to take advantage of all of these things. [00:43:42] Speaker B: Yep. There is nothing. It's so interesting how I have been blessed enough to witness so many powerful transformations with friends as well as just with people around me. And I think the best thing for us to see is to see others really own up their power, really realize who they are, really be able to stand on their. Feeling empowered, feeling present. And that's just. That's the beauty of awakening. And I. I feel that this portal has so much of that energy, that's so much of that empowerment energy. One of the things, too, that I was talking to Lola about, that I saw, and it's such a great thing, is there's a lot of people, they're working on putting the intention and the energy on the day of Lionsgate, which is this Friday, on something you would like to see more of in this world. [00:44:49] Speaker A: You know, there's something you did recently that we forgot to mention, as would be extremely powerful right now. A vision board. [00:44:59] Speaker B: Yes. I was like, what did I do now? But yes, a vision board is very. It's so personal. It's something that, like, whatever resonates with you. Like, on my vision board, instead of doing the classic way, I started adding emotions of what makes me feel alive. Like, I put adventure, I put fun. [00:45:19] Speaker A: He cut up magazines. [00:45:21] Speaker B: Yes. And put him in a board. And what I did is I put it right on top of my bed so that when I go to bed, I can see it. When I'm writing my gratitude in the morning, I can see it still. It's just a matter of keeping that energy, of float like you get passionate when you talk about the things that motivate you, the things that push you forward, the things you want to see in your life. So what better way than to have something that reminds you of that and that you can harness that energy? [00:45:51] Speaker A: Well, plus, people tend to discount the right side of the brain. Yeah, it's extra powerful, and it speaks in images, and it's talking to your subconscious, which is exactly how you can shift your energies. So don't discount the right side of the brain. So having a vision board, if you have it up, like, my whole refrigerator is a vision board. So every day I'm walking by images several times a day, and they're registering in that right side of the brain. Images about courage, images about teaching, images about the things I want to manifest. So if you don't have a lot of magazines, but you've got skills with the computer. I make collages using Canva. [00:46:43] Speaker B: Oh, there you go. [00:46:43] Speaker A: Yeah. There's such a thing as if you have Canva Pro, you can remove the background on a photograph, and that's like cutting out a collage with scissors. So you can create a digital one as well as doing it manually. But I think the manually kind of goes back to what you were talking about earlier with the journaling. There's something about that. Physically cutting the paper, searching for the images, rearranging them on the paper. And it does take talent, and it's kind of a magical process to get the images lined up. So I can see. I think that it ultimately is probably the better way to do it. But if you don't have access to a lot of magazines, I recommend make. If you. If you're handy with a computer, you could do a digital one too, but then print it up so you see it. [00:47:41] Speaker B: Yep. Also another thing you can do now with. Because we all have smartphones. Your smartphone, if you have a printer that has a WI FI connection, you can connect from your smartphones to your printer, and you can print out whatever images you can pull up. So if you have, like, certain images that you would like to put up on your dream board, you can definitely print them out. And it is really fun. I had one day off. [00:48:10] Speaker A: Yeah, you haven't had many. [00:48:12] Speaker B: And I. Because I had that one day off, and I knew I was determined to, like, I'm gonna do my dream board today is gonna be done. And what's really interesting is I didn't say. I didn't say it with a tone of. [00:48:26] Speaker A: It wasn't desperate. [00:48:27] Speaker B: It wasn't desperation or anything. It's more like I am determined because I feel so grateful about these things, and I know everything can come together and everything. So I put it up online. I just, on social media, just said, hey, anyone's got any magazines? And then there was, like, funny enough, there was no reply, right? But then I said, well, why do I have to give up then? So I started texting a few people that I knew that could possibly have extra magazines. And out of those people, Sonia, one of our friends that we've interviewed before. [00:48:56] Speaker A: That'S where we have the drumming circle at her place. [00:48:58] Speaker B: She said, I actually have extra magazines if you would like to come by, but I am doing some errands. You're gonna have to come by later on. And I said, oh, that's fine. Let me know what time. I stopped by. I picked up the magazines. It was so great. I was done with my vision board, like, at the end of the night, just in time to be put up. And I felt so good about it because I hadn't done a dream board in a long time. Yes, we've done. We did, like, little classes and stuff where we did little collage boards and stuff. And those could be kind of, I guess, the dream board, but a true, true dream board. Even labeling it, it was my first time in a while. And another thing that's really thing funny that when you do any type of collaging next to Lola, you feel like you're a beginner, because Lola has this way of doing her collages. They're so perfectly that you would think that they're printed out to be that way. You don't even realize it's like different magazines being cut together, because her thing is about placing them just right. It's probably a Gemini thing. [00:50:06] Speaker A: It's just I've been making collages since I was a child. It's one of my favorite things to do. [00:50:11] Speaker B: It shows. It really shows. So when I was first doing them next to her, I was like, mine look like they're like little kids compared to hers. But then I realized it's not about that. It's about you bringing in those emotions, really feeling passionate about what you're putting in and really putting your energy into it. And there's no way it's like your future and what you want for it. It's going to be so different than anybody else's. So no matter what, you're putting your own signature to it. But it's just funny. And I'm more like Giving her praise because they're just like her. Like her collage. Collage skills are a whole nother level. [00:50:50] Speaker A: Well, but what he's talking about is, you know, you. You have the. What you really want to manifest on your collages. And I have more conceptual stuff. So he's. I think his approach is actually the way to do it. I. I just. I'll have like one thing on there and. And then I do the collage around the one thing, you know, Whereas you're putting everything you want on that board. [00:51:13] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:51:13] Speaker A: It doesn't matter, you know, if you know what the proportions are and how it looks, it's there, you know, and so there's no right or wrong way to do it. [00:51:22] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:51:22] Speaker A: Although I have a feeling his is more powerful than mine, even if mine looks more artistic, you know, because you're getting so much on the page. Yeah. [00:51:31] Speaker B: But even, like, how you do it, that's more artistic. You're also putting. Anytime you're putting more than just like sending it out there and just pasting and calling it good, you're putting in that energy of purpose. So it's still powerful. Yeah, it's not. I mean, I don't think that if you've been put a room full of people, they're each gonna come out with their own ideas, because there's no way that people want the same things. [00:51:55] Speaker A: They want similar things, but it'll be expressed differently. But that's why journaling is important too, because you. We want. Let's say we want the same thing. Bundance. Now, how you phrase it and how I phrase it in a journal is going to be different. [00:52:08] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:52:09] Speaker A: And bring, you know, attract energy in a different. In a different way for the very similar goals. So I guess what we're trying to say is make a ceremony out of this right now. You know, light a candle before 8. 8. If you. Well, this is going to air on 8, 7. So even after 8, 8, you can still tie into this energy for a few days. Yeah. So light a candle one night. Think about the lion. Think about walking through that portal, connecting with the energy of Sirius and bringing that abundance, you know, that cosmic connection as above, so below. Because the lion be Earth, Sirius would be the stars. You can stand right in the middle of that, just like a figure eight. Right. So there are things you can do on a personal level to really, you know, tie into that energy. And I guess what we're trying to say, there's no right or wrong way. [00:53:09] Speaker B: To do it, but there's these cool Things that I just learned. And I just. I was so happy about learning this, and I want to share it with you guys. So one. Like Lola said, light up a candle and then write down an actual journal note for yourself of what goals you want to accomplish. Like, true. Like, this is like you. Like, where do you see yourself and give yourself some time thing of like, I would like to see this in my life. Do those goals right after you're done with that sheet and making those goals, Save that sheet. Because now what you're going to do is off of your goals that you wrote down, you're gonna do affirmations out of them. [00:53:53] Speaker A: Oh, yes. [00:53:55] Speaker B: And off of those affirmations, you just put them in your phone, on your note taker, because we all have a note taker. Or you can put them on a piece of paper. [00:54:03] Speaker A: I would fold that piece of paper and put it in my pillowcase. [00:54:06] Speaker B: Exactly. You can put it in your pillowcase. But the key is do those affirmations at least twice a day. Or you can do them as many times as you need to, but just. And when you do your affirmations, do them in the way that they speak to you, where you feel the emotion from it. Man, talk about really using that energy and setting that energy to intention. That's one thing I just did yesterday, and it's been really powerful, and I love it. [00:54:33] Speaker A: So that goes back to the lion heart. [00:54:37] Speaker B: Exactly. Wow. [00:54:42] Speaker A: Okay. Oh, and we didn't even really fully talk about the full moon yet, but I just love how this goes together. So full moon's always about releasing. [00:54:52] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:54:53] Speaker A: So this. This, wow. It's just like, this is just such a powerful time. I hope everybody gets to hear this before the 12th. [00:55:01] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:55:02] Speaker A: That's why we're going to do this special episode and get it out there. [00:55:05] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:55:05] Speaker A: So that you can start focusing on, oh, you know what came into my mind. One of the hardest things. Because we're trained not to think we're worthy of things. This would be the perfect time as a lion to go. I am worthy of this. [00:55:19] Speaker B: Oh, yes. [00:55:19] Speaker A: That would be a great affirmation. I am worthy of abundance with ease. [00:55:23] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:55:24] Speaker A: I am worthy of developing my confidence. I am worthy of whatever you choose. I would use that as part of my affirmations. Just a little helpful hint, people. [00:55:33] Speaker B: Yeah. Anytime you stand in your power or I deserve is a good one too. [00:55:38] Speaker A: As far as I think, worthy is even stronger. [00:55:40] Speaker B: Worthy is even stronger, or I am is even stronger too. Actually, once you're actually giving the gratitude for already Having it, I would do. [00:55:47] Speaker A: A two part, I am worthy of this, and I am doing this. [00:55:50] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:55:52] Speaker A: I have some long affirmations. Sometimes I use a lot of conjunctions in them. [00:55:58] Speaker B: Hey, if it works for you, that's all that matters. [00:56:03] Speaker A: Right? You don't have to stop at one people. Yes. [00:56:07] Speaker B: Sometimes I even write things and then I'm like, wait, it sounds more powerful if I like. Because once I read it, I'm like, I need to make this more powerful. And then I rewrite it to something else. And you're like, oh, now I can really feel it. Overall, you are the chemist and you are creating your future. And you. You know what things work for you and how powerful things are. So put that, like, add your own personal recipe to everything you do, to your journal, to your affirmations to make it more powerful and to make them be about you, because ultimately, that's who they're going to benefit. [00:56:49] Speaker A: I love that you said chemist, because you know, you know what the root form of chemist is? [00:56:54] Speaker B: What is that? [00:56:55] Speaker A: Kemet, which is Egypt. [00:56:57] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:57:00] Speaker A: They knew their magic in Egypt. They knew their alchemy in Egypt. So I love that he used the word chemist and that it comes from Kemet. [00:57:09] Speaker B: Yes. [00:57:11] Speaker A: Well, this episode, we talked a lot about stuff. [00:57:17] Speaker B: Oh, yes.
