Lion Head Candle

Lions gate 8/8

Here’s a powerful spell you can use with our lion-shaped candle for the 8/8 Lion’s Gate portal. This ritual calls in the bold, regal energy of Leo and the cosmic alignment of Sirius and the Sun to amplify your manifestations and magic.

🦁 Lion’s Gate Manifestation Spell: “Heart of the Lion”

For courage, abundance, and empowered creation

You will need:

1 lion-shaped candle (gold, orange, or yellow preferred)

A small piece of paper and pen

A crystal (citrine, carnelian, or tiger’s eye)

A dish of water (to represent flow and balance)

Optional: incense (frankincense or sandalwood)

✨ Step 1 – Create Sacred Space

On the evening of August 8th, cleanse your space with incense or by ringing a bell. Place the lion candle at the center of your altar, with the dish of water and crystal nearby. Sit comfortably and take a few deep breaths, feeling your heart expand.

✨ Step 2 – Charge the Candle

Hold the lion candle in both hands and speak:

“Heart of the lion, strength of the sun,

Courage and power, now become one.

On this portal of eight and eight,

Open the gates, unleash my fate.”

Visualize golden light pouring from Sirius and the Sun above you, filling the candle until it glows in your mind’s eye.

✨ Step 3 – Write Your Intention

On the paper, write what you wish to manifest. Be bold and specific. Phrase it in the present tense (e.g., “I am surrounded by abundance and joy” or “My creative power flows freely and effortlessly”). Fold the paper toward you three times (to draw the energy in).

✨ Step 4 – Light the Candle

Place the folded paper under the candle. Light it, saying:

“As this flame burns, so does my will.

Lion’s gate open, my dreams fulfill.

Courageous heart, with fire aligned,

All I desire now comes in kind.”

Visualize your intentions already real—see, feel, and believe it as if it’s happening.

✨ Step 5 – Seal the Spell

Let the candle burn as long as safely possible (or for at least 8 minutes to honor the portal). When ready, extinguish the flame respectfully, saying:

“The lion rests, the magic stays,

Manifestation flows in endless ways.

So mote it be.”

Keep the folded paper on your altar or in a sacred place until your manifestation begins to unfold.
