the gregorian calendar is not my own and yet it, too is caught in the web of time and earthen cycle 🌀🐍🕸️🐐

„ich habe Tote, und ich ließ sie hin“ ~

i am burying and putting down this year,

the versions of myself,

dreams i’ve outgrown,

my very own flesh and blood.

888 - 08.08.2024 lion’s gate portal 🦁☀️🌟 & 1 Q’anil 🌱🐇🤎

with moon in libra 🌙⚖️, mercury rx in virgo, pluto rx in capricorn & aquarius, and saturn 🪐 & neptune rx in pisces

today is a truly spiritual day. it is the 888 lion’s gate portal and the start of the trecena Q’anil in our Maya Cholq’ij - one of our sacred calendars that measures the energies that influence us each day. the lion’s gate portal is a phenomenon we observe every year on 08/08. this year it is extra special as 2024 is an 8 year (2+0+2+4=8), putting further emphasis on the themes of the lion’s gate portal as reflected in our own lives.

this magical gateway peaks when the star Sirius aligns with the Pyramid of Giza, the Orion’s Belt constellation, and the sun in leo. the Fixed Star Sirius is known as the “spiritual sun of our sun”, sharing gravitational motion with our own sun.

while this auspicious celestial window is open from july 26th-august 12th, today is when its energy reaches its climax, adorning us with its pleasurable glow. it is a time of cosmic energy flowing between the physical and spiritual realms. rooted in Egyptian cosmology, 8:8 brings abundance, amplified manifestation power, and increased global consciousness and awareness. today is an especially potent day to trust your gut, stand in your innate power, and embody the highest version of you. it is a divine day to to set deep, meaningful intentions and watch them come into fruition over time. this period of time activates significant spiritual growth, introspection, and the focus needed to manifest what you truly desire. we might experience a deeper connection with our intuition, activating our intuitive senses and fostering an opportunity for personal transformation and growth. as we welcome the alignment of the galactic new year, we embrace all things leo: heart chakra charging, passion, confidence, power, and self expression. 888

this week i have been so tired - physically, emotionally, spiritually. i haven’t been able to fall asleep until the early hours of the morning, feeling restless and uneasy. it is not until i cry and cry that i am able relax my mind and body in order to invite sleep in. my dreams have been the most vivid they’ve been in a long time. i feel incredibly creative and driven, and i also feel hopeless and lost. i’m struggling. i am scared and angry and frustrated. i am heartbroken and overwhelmed and so, so tired. even my bones feel exhausted. i am also in awe, full of gratitude and wonder and most importantly, hope. i am a lot of things.

cancer energy is the balance of soft and hard, of diving deep into our emotional bodies and truly listening to our intuition - not out of fear, but of the deep knowing that washes in when our inner current is calm. intuition is a whisper, anxiety yells. cancer energy is introverted and deeply emotional, the connection with the ocean and the Divine Mother.
