This Thursday, August 8, is officially the most powerful of the year for your manifestations. Here’s what you need to know about this magical day, and how to make the most of it.
The power of 888
The Lion’s Gate, or 88 Gate, opens every year on August 8, making it a great day for manifesting the life of your dreams—as the angel number 88 is one that signifies infinity, but also great prosperity and abundance. But this year, we get another 8: if we add the digits of our current year 2024, we get 2+0+2+4=8.
So for this one day, we get a super special opportunity to claim the ultimate abundance and prosperity into our timeline—the next such window will be in 2033!
Leo and Jupiter energies
Fiery Leo, governed by the Sun, is the most generous, abundant sign of the zodiac. Leos are natural givers, are not afraid to speak up and be loud about their goals. That’s exactly the energy we should emulate today.
To sprinkle even more good vibes, the 888 Gate falls on a Thursday, which astrologically corresponds to Jupiter—the planet of luck, expansion and growth.
It doesn’t get any more perfect than this!
How to use the 888 Gate for manifestation
On Thursday, August 8, supercharge your manifestations with these steps:
Step 1: Wash your hands with salt and cinnamon.
First, use the salt to remove all your blockages. As the water runs through your hands, concentrate on the things you’re letting go of, to make space for abundance in your life. Then, spread cinnamon in your palm and massage your hands together before washing them again: cinnamon is a spice that corresponds with Jupiter’s energy, and one that carries prosperity.
Step 2: Burn a cinnamon stick in your home
Once you’ve brought prosperous energy to yourself, it’s time to spread it to your home. Step outside your front door, and blow the cinnamon smoke indoors.
Step 3: Write 8 goals on a piece of paper.
Use a purple or a green pen and write your manifestations as if they’ve already happened, in present tense. Thank the Universe for having already provided these things for you.
Step 4: Read your manifestations aloud.
Your voice carries vibrations that will help your manifestations become tangible. Speak them out loud, with confidence, then fold that paper and place it under a citrine stone.
