Did you know that the Leo Season is known for the Lion’s Gate Activation? The Sun moves into Leo energy on July 22nd/23rd through August 22, 2021, and during Leo season, collectively, we may all feel more creative, love, drama, expressive, and have more fun. With Venus and Mars in Virgo, we can expect loving, sensual, earthy, and charismatic. With the help of five planets in Retrograde, many will experience a reboot in energy and a shift in their frequency and vibration. All zodiac signs feel the effects of Retrogrades. However, the zodiac signs that the planets are in will feel the effects more so, including the opposition's signs.
The following planets are in Retrograde:
Pluto (endings/new beginnings) – Capricorn (opposition sign Cancer) April 27 – October 6, 2021
Saturn (structure/determination) – Aquarius (opposition sign Leo) May 23 – October 10, 2021
Neptune (illusion/spirituality) – Pisces (opposition sign Virgo) June 25 – December 1, 2021
Jupiter (expansion/gifts) – Pisces (opposition sign Virgo) June 20 – July 28, 20201
Jupiter (expansion/gifts) – Aquarius (opposition sign Leo) July 28 – October 18, 2021
Chiron (wounded healer) – Aries (opposition sign Libra) July 15 – December 19, 2021
On August 8, 2021, everyone will experience the energy of the Lion’s Gate Activation, which is a” Portal Activation” to help everyone prepare for our physical, mental, emotional, and etheric bodies for a significant shift in consciousness, whether you’re conscious of it or not.
In Numerology, the number 8 holds the frequency and vibration of abundance, achievements, awards, harmony, balance, infinity, and karmic lessons.
According to Numerology, August 2021, is a 4 Universal month 8+2+0+2+1 = 13 and 1+3 = 4. The number 4 holds a vibration and frequency of building a new foundation, balance, stability, support, calmness, working hard to get what you want, and patience.
In Numerology, each calendar year is reduced to a single-digit number, which carries a unique vibration, and it’s called Universal Year. Everyone feels the unique vibration throughout the entire year, whether you’re conscious of it or not.
To get to the current year number, just calculate all the numbers until you get to a single-digit number. The only number that does not get added up to a single-digit number is 11, which is a Master Number.
To get the Universal Year Number, add up all the numbers of the current year 2021 (2+0+2+1 = 5). 2021 adds up to be a 5 Universal Year.
What Does The 5 Universal Year Mean?
The 5 Universal Year holds the frequency and vibration of change, freedom, adventure, fun, courage, and unpredictability.
Now, let’s bring it all together: During the month of August with the Lion’s Gate Activation, everyone will experience (conscious of it or not) the desire to build a new foundation, create harmony and balance as they achieve karmic lessons while exploring freedom, having fun and being open for some unpredictability.
