In case you have been wherever in astrology circles this previous week, you may need heard folks mentioning the “Lion’s gate portal,” a magical manifestation day when the Leo Solar, Sirius, and Orion’s Belt line up with the Earth. It’s additionally 8/8, a lucky numerology combo (if you add in 2024, it’s one other 8). Sounds groovy, proper?
Besides…many astrologers have debunked this complete notion. There is no such thing as a proof that that is even a factor.
Some astrologers have been fairly nasty about it. Whereas the ire is comprehensible, is it so improper if some people discover magic on this day?
Frankly, I’m kinda agnostic about magical practices a lot as I’m about faith. Even when there isn’t any proof about gods, I wish to be good to all of the gods simply in case. I determine if I kick the bucket and study there may be truly a cat god ruling over me all these years, not less than my try to be cheap ’n good may get me previous the gates into no matter is on the opposite aspect. And if there may be nothing besides my physique composting again into the earth, did it damage me to be a bit chill with the gods? Nope. (Psst…I’m wondering dying appears like going via a black gap, which is one thing I obsess over.)
And in relation to magical work, I’m completely advantageous with tossing the cube on a made-up day as a result of…ya by no means know. What if it truly works?
Extra importantly, I are likely to comply with this rule: thoughts your individual magic.
If it really works for somebody, so be it. If it’s all bunk however provides them a little bit of happiness, rock on. If it’s not hurting anybody, keep on. Let folks do their factor. On the finish of the day, isn’t that what issues? Individuals being free to apply nonetheless they really feel? Frankly, I don’t actually give a rat’s patootie about what another person is doing, so long as it’s not interfering with my magick/life/peace.
So let’s all relax, let people love up their lion stuff, and go on about our personal magic enterprise.
xo,
Theresa
