Do's and don'ts during the Lion's Gate portal, which will close on August 12

The Lion's Gate portal, also known as the "period of three eights," is the most powerful portal of the year. At this time, the Sun is lined up with the star Sirius and the belt of Orion, creating a huge cosmic gateway through which a stream of cosmic energy of transformation flows.

Astrologers say that this is the time to start manifesting yourself. Make plans and let others see you in all your glory - this will lead you to success. At the same time, do not forget to follow the recommendations on what you can and cannot do on this day.

What to do: listen to the signals and express yourself

Try not to lower your mood with sad stories and songs. After all, right now you can best tune in to the energy of the Universe, and the inspired sadness will not only prevent you from doing so, but will also attract more sadness into your life.

Try to surround yourself with things that really inspire you. Look at the beautiful, communicate with nice people, and be filled with joy through all possible channels.

What not to do: don't write to your ex and don't go back to old habits

Along with the opening of the Lion's Gate portal, we are experiencing five retrogrades this year. Because of this, we may be tempted to explore the past and reconnect with our exes. But this is not the time for that. During this powerful period, it is important to move forward, not backward. Commitment to the future should be greater than commitment to the past.

Right now, the Universe is giving us two options: to develop and manifest or to move forward, aiming for happiness. So do yourself a favor, don't respond to messages from your exes, don't go back to the habits you're trying to break, don't get caught up in the usual toxic cycles. Move forward and stay in harmony with your highest self.

What to do: dream

Dreams are one of the best forms of expression. Especially now, when Neptune is in retrograde. When you have some free time, go to a quiet, peaceful place and imagine in detail what you want most.

Perhaps you hope for financial success or want to build strong, harmonious relationships. Allow yourself to feel these emotions as if you have already gotten everything you want. Sending this happy energy out into the universe right now is the best way to tune into your true self and ultimately realize these desires.

What to do: practice gratitude

The best thing you can do right now is to practice gratitude. When you wake up in the morning, immediately open a notebook - paper or on your phone - and write down everything you feel grateful for at that very moment. It can even be something as small as the cup of coffee you had yesterday morning. Write it all down and then turn on your favorite music.

Return to the gratitude practice throughout the day whenever you feel the urge to do so. For example, write down: "I feel grateful for my family," and then write: "I want to be grateful for my new car." Allow yourself to dream that you will have even more reasons to be grateful.
