We’re in the final week of Mercury retrograde (hallelujah!), and this week things begin to shift.  On August 6th, Mars enters Libra for a six-week stay, bringing much-needed rebalancing energy. Mars is usually about drive and action, but in Libra, it’s about peace, harmony, and cooperation—especially in our relationships. Expect things to smooth out and feel lighter as we return to inner balance. 💫

This Saturday, August 9th, we have a powerful full moon in Aquarius—the Sturgeon Moon—bringing themes of abundance and illumination. But what makes this even more potent is that it aligns with the peak of the 8/8 Lion’s Gate Portal, a time when the Sun in Leo aligns with Sirius, our spiritual sun. This opens a high-frequency gateway that beams spiritual energy down to Earth. It’s the time for intention setting, fresh starts, and aligning with your highest self. Think of it as a spiritual new year! 

The 8/8 energy, combined with the full moon, helps us release old stories—especially around scarcity, fear, and where we think we should be by now. This is a powerful reset button. If you’ve been feeling stuck, unclear, or holding back, now is your moment to shift. 

During the Lion’s Gate Portal, the veil between worlds gets thin. That means stronger connection with your spirit guides, angels, ancestors, and even loved ones who’ve passed. You might notice more synchronicities, vivid dreams, or signs like feathers, numbers, or songs that feel too perfect to be random. These are messages.

So yes—this week is big. Mars in Libra helps us rebalance, the Aquarius full moon brings emotional clarity, and the Lion’s Gate offers the chance to upgrade on a soul level. It’s a time to dream bigger, lead with love, and get back into alignment with who you truly are. Things are lightening up now, and next week? Even better. ✨🙌
