AUGUST ENERGY UPDATE
What’s Happening This Week: Lion’s Gate, Solar Flares & Nervous System Stress
🦁🌞 August 5, 2025
This week, many people are feeling off — tired, anxious, emotional, or physically sensitive — and there’s actually a reason for it.
We’re currently in what’s known as the Lion’s Gate Portal, which peaks on August 8 (8/8). This isn’t just a trend — it’s an annual energetic alignment where the Earth, the star Sirius, and the Sun (currently in the zodiac sign of Leo) align. This creates a kind of “energetic doorway” that’s believed to support clarity, healing, and personal growth.
Why It Feels Intense Right Now:
On top of the Lion’s Gate energy, we’ve also had several solar flares — bursts of electromagnetic energy from the sun — which can disrupt our own energy fields. For those who are sensitive, this can feel like:
• Headaches
• Dizziness
• Trouble sleeping
• Feeling emotional for “no reason”
• Body tension or fatigue
• Sensory overload (like sound or light sensitivity)
You’re not imagining it. These types of cosmic events are known to affect the nervous system, increase anxiety, and bring up old memories or emotions that need to be processed. This doesn’t mean something is wrong — it means your body and mind are recalibrating.
How to Support Yourself Right Now:
• Stay hydrated (water helps regulate the nervous system)
• Rest when you need it
• Get outside and connect to nature
• Take a break from screen time
• Practice breathing exercises or light movement like stretching or walking
• Give yourself permission to slow down
The energy may continue to build until August 8, then gradually settle. Right after that, we’ll experience a Full Moon in Aquarius, which often brings a sense of emotional release and clarity.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, you’re not alone. Be gentle with yourself this week. Your body is working hard behind the scenes.
