As with most things to do with astrology and manifestation, the Lion’s Gate Portal is the cosmic alignment of stars, signs, and numbers.
The term also refers to the annual alignment between the sun in Leo and Sirius, the brightest star in the sky. Sirius, which is also called Canis Majoris and the Dog Star, was revered by Ancient Egyptians for its connection to the goddess Sopdet, who oversees agricultural practices.
Egyptians also hailed the period as when the River Nile would flood, bringing plentiful bounty and also bridging the gap between realms.

The peak of the Lion’s Gate Portal also falls on the eighth day of the eighth month, making it a particularly potent day for luck, manifestation, and rebirth. The number is often lorded as a union of the material and the spiritual, represented by the infinity symbol it makes, and is associated with abundance, achievement, and karmic debt.

“This is a very powerful time just to tune in and be very accepting of your experience; there could be a message, there could be some kind of deep intuition that is arising within you that says take action in this direction, respond or react to the situation in a different way,” astrologer Sai Avani told the New York Post.
“The small changes we make in our own lives during this time could add up to a truly powerful collective effect. We’re all in this journey together, we’re all connected, and as we change, so does the world.”
There are countless experts offering advice online, with one report from Marie Claire offering manifestation techniques such as journaling, intention setting, expressing gratitude, meditation with intent, and making a mood board. They also noted how including crystals like citrine or clear quartz “can help align your energy with abundance, love, and spiritual growth.”
On TikTok, the witches are out in force with top tricks and Lion’s Gate Portal hacks, with Athena from Athena’s Crystals urging people to do things to “raise their vibrations”. This could include listening to upbeat music, spending time outside, or basically anything that’s going to get that serotonin flowing.
Her biggest tip was to be “positively delusional” about dreams and expectations.
