Manifestation Tips for August
1. Work with the 8/8 Portal Energy
The Lion’s Gate Portal is a potent time for spiritual awakening. On this day, meditate with Lapis Lazuli or Sunstone, visualise your highest timeline, and write down exactly what you’re calling in – with heart and detail.
2. Use Fire Element Rituals
Fire corresponds with Leo and is perfect for igniting passion and burning away limitations. Try a candle ritual with a citrine or carnelian nearby while you speak your desires into the flame.
3. Build a Crystal Grid for Abundance
Place Pyrite in the centre, surrounded by Clear Quartz points facing outward. Add Sunstone and Green Aventurine to boost joy and wealth attraction.
4. Embrace Practical Magic as Virgo Season Begins
August 23 marks a shift to Virgo, encouraging organisation, self-care, and structure. Start a new planner, cleanse your space with selenite, and ground your goals with action steps.

Portal Days to Watch
8 August – Lion’s Gate Portal: A powerful day for intention-setting, visualisation and crystal work.
19 August – Full Moon in Aquarius: Release outdated beliefs and embrace your unique soul path.
