As of lately, I feel as though the Collective as been feeling low on energy, unmotivated, stressed, and uninspired. We got caught up with so many major life events and major astrological transits, we have simply forgotten who is really important in our lives, us. Meaning you. You are important. The person we look at every day in the mirror has a voice and deserves to be heard. That person has dreams, aspirations, goals, and visions that somehow got lost in translation trying to be someone to everyone else.
It is okay to feel lost out here, it is apart of the human experience. Even while feeling like this, it is important to reflect how far we have come DESPITE the odds set against us. This is what Leo season is for. It is the season for the pick me up, the self affirmations, and a beautiful reminder that the Spirit's home is divinely placed in true authenticity and self expression. When you are living in your truth, no matter what it is, you are home. So, on August 8th, 2021 we are having a cosmic event called 'Lion's Gate Portal'. If you don't know what that is, check out my last post (it's free) then come back!
So let's talk about this collective reading I pulled.
The question at hand is: "What advice, messages, or insight, does the collective need to hear moving forward into the Lion's Gate Portal happening on August 8th, 2021?"
The cards pulled:
The King of Cups, The World Rx, The Hermit Rx, 8 of Cups, 9 of Pentacles, Justice in Rx, and The Ace of Pentacles in Rx.
***For reference Rx = reverse***
What I feel is people are wanting and are coming out of their shell. The introspection has been done (The Hermit Rx) and there is a readiness to face the next chapter. Emotions have been assessed and handled with care. (The King of Cups) However, there is still this lingering feeling of "what if." The possibilities of your plans not working out, you not being successful, or just overall doubts and worries play in your mind. (The World Rx) Remember I said, feeling lost is all apart of the human experience so how do we face AND overcome it? How do we cope?
The first step is to assess what we weigh important to ourselves and what guides us on our moral compass. (The Justice Rx). Redirecting where we give our time and energy to and most importantly what we are committed to is how we regain focus. This is about taking into consideration what relationships, agreements, and bonds you have with yourself and others and making sure they are in alignment to where you are wanting to go and who you truly feel as though you are. Now, with this newfound spiritual understanding and maturation that shouldn't be so difficult to do. In fact, with the King of Cups and the Hermit in Rx it shows me there is a profound connection to the intuition that may have otherwise been clouded. This intuitive nudge towards particular situations or random insight will make it much easier to navigate through it and give you a new sense of awareness. What baggage is yours and what are you carrying for others? What obligations are yours and what are you so blindly sticking to? These are all the questions that the Justice card in Rx ask. Weighing out your options and making slow and methodic decisions is going to be important during this time. You will realize under this cosmic trance that not everything is for you and that is okay.
The Virgo in Venus transit will still have some significance as the card associated to this placement appeared in the spread. (9 of Pentacles) So with along with the spiritual aspect of it all, the material component sees a huge upgrade which is perfect for Leo Season. The Lion's Gate Portal is opening a gateway for hardworking and diligent people (The World in Rx) to receive the recognition they deserve. Since Virgo loves to give back this can be in the form of crowdfunding goals being met, charitable donations, a sense of togetherness, and an abundance of helpful resources especially in the community. This can also translate into promotions, financial boost, achievements, milestones, and opportunities to be seized. With the Ace of Pentacles being here in reverse accompanied by the 9 of Pentacles, I feel as though some missed opportunities can either come back around or it would be a good time to double back on any opportunities you may have missed out on before the Lion's Gate Portal. Anything that you started and then stopped especially during the Mercury Rx, I would advise you go back and see if you have the time to pick it back up and complete it because it could be beneficial for you. (Ace of Pentacles Rx, Hermit Rx, 9 of Pentacles). I would also take this opportunity to help where you can and if you can especially in the terms of financial compensation.
The card that stuck out the most to me was the 8 of Cups. Not only is it aligned on a numerological aspect (8th month, 8th day) but it more or less fits the energy I have been feeling collectively. It is interesting to note however, that the Hermit card being here in reverse accompanied by the 8 of Cups almost contradicts itself, but we as humans tend to do that anyway. However I also feel as though it is a story that leads into each other. Whereas the Hermit in Rx is stating that it is time to come out of your shell, the 8 of Cups is saying "and continue to trust in yourself". See, 8 deals all with personal power and determination and that is what makes the 8 of Cups so bold. The overall energy is even though you have your doubts and your fears (The World Rx), you have your baggage (The Justice Rx), you still have faith, commitment, intuition (The King of Cups) and the willingness to walk your path. The Lion's Gate Portal is a complete and total cleanse as we are moving forward into our next chapter. (8 of Cups). We no longer let the obscurities deter us from our path. We know all in all, that everything happens in Divine Timing and the best we can do is trust the path that is laid out for us. You are walking away from what is familiar to you because you realize, you can not shine there. You have so boldly decided that there are some relationships, obligations, and commitments (Justice Rx) that do not fit your life anymore. You aren't making a fuss about it, you are not arguing about it, you are simply choosing to walk away. This Lion's Gate Portal is so eloquently and conveniently shining a light on anything or anyone who makes you feel unseen, unheard, or unappreciated. Truly honoring the Leo's energy of commanding respect and going where they feel like they are celebrated.
The tricky part is, sometimes this change can be very sporadic and unforeseen. You could read this and still not know in what area of your life is going to change and then all the sudden it does. That is the gem in all of this, you are not going to know when, but you will know it was all apart of the plan, your plan. Our answered prayers are directly on the other side of change.
From what I can see, expect spiritual insight, whether it is random or intentional through divination, sporadic nudges to move on or leave people and situations behind, a new sense of maturity and insight, a true assessment of your responsibilities, and new or old opportunities appearing/reappearing.
Please let me know how this resonates with you all! If you want any further insight on the Lion's Gate Portal please refer to my last post. I hope this was helpful and insightful and thank you so much for reading! Here at TheSexierTarot we grow and learn together all while being sexy.
