August Energy

A woman holding a peacock stands next to a distinctive boundary. Notice the maidens on the other side of this boundary. The presence of the maidens may signify the level of commitment you have toward your new resolve in your self-care. Wisteria represents a time of learning.

August is the an important month to honour your limitations and acknowledge you need to take better care of yourself.

Decide what you do and don’t want in your life. When you find yourself faced with a conflict, ask yourself what you want the outcome to be?

Being the loudest voice may assure that you are heard. But if you want to bring peace to the problem, you may have to let the other person speak their piece first. Once you have heard their side, it is often easier to air your own grievances. Though it's far easier to point out faults and differences, try to look for common ground. You have to work to see why another person isn’t wrong.

Ask Yourself; if the current conflict is worth the energy. Or is there a better way out?
✨How am I like the person I’m in conflict with?
✨What would I want from me if I were the other person?
And last but not the least, who am I really in conflict with?

August is the month for you to make changes to better support your energy and healing.

What You Need To Bring Into Your Awareness Now!

Don’t let the unknown scare you. Begin today on the 1st day of the month by planning what you want your tomorrow’s to look like.This is your call to action. You are being put in charge of your own life.

Now is your chance to look ahead. If you do not like what your next week, your next month, or even your next year is shaping up to be, then do something about it. Start making your course corrections now!

Remember that every step you take now is leading you down a path. It’s time to check your internal compass to make sure this is the way you want to go.

Ask Yourself Today:
✨Where do I want to be in a year?
✨How can I prepare myself now for my preferred future?

This month you are guided to practice daily meditation. In meditation, we can find the space between thoughts and chatter. When you meditate, you allow your mind to be in a state of peace. This shift in thinking will help stop any limiting and negative thoughts you might have fallen prey to. When fearful thinking gains a foothold in your mind, it can take root and become habitual. It can be hard to recognise and release fearful thinking. But now that you are aware, take action to make the required changes.

Starting today make a commitment to yourself to just take out 1 minute everyday to meditate and increase that time as you start to feel comfortable. Find soothing music that helps you relax. Silence your mind. Breathe in and imagine this breath travelling through your body, take a second breath and ask your body to relax. Just one minute a day of meditation can provide a mental reprieve from the thoughts connected with illness, loss or any low vibrational thoughts. This exercise daily can go a long way toward your healing.

Your Challenge/ Opportunity:

A maiden flies on the back of a Pegasus amidst birds and angels. It is believed that Pegasus came from Atlantis. He represents the time of new consciousness. The angels bring awareness to you now about how your thinking influences your world and what you have no control of. If you are stuck modifying your viewpoint, call on your guardian angels. Angels can help you find the positive in any situation. Fine tune your thoughts, quiet your mind and listen for your intuition. The group in the image is moving into the dawn of a new day. You need to do the same. Take steps to create positive change as you adjust to your new life this month!

Are you holding onto past situations and dwelling on them?

Be willing to release the past and let yourself change your thinking. Work on releasing your fears and learn to affirm the good in a situation. Positive emotions are linked to effort, focus, energy and inspiration. Your emotions and actions influence your body. They can raise or lower your energy and impact your physical body and health. Positive thinking will enhance your energy. Fake it until you make it- that is, you may not feel happy or powerful, but ‘act’ as if you are. When you make the adjustment and act as if you are happy, your mood will shift positively.

The Gift From August:

Ensure you understand that the person you see in the mirror should also be under your care.

In the image of the card, behind the mask is the heart of a warrior. Fiercely protective of what she calls hers, this goddess of the forest holds an acorn as well as an arrow. Her companions, the fawn and the wren, trust her to take care of them. The acorn is hers because she will nurture it and make sure that it has a chance to become a mighty oak. The arrow is held at the ready to protect what is hers. Let the arrow of your determination show others that you do see what they are doing!

There is power in doing something good for the sake of the good rather than for praise or recognition.

💚Who do I protect and why?
💚What random acts of kindness can I do through this entire month?

Bring your attention to the people you surround yourself with. It is important you are honest about how you feel about your most significant relationships. This is not limited to romantic relationships and may include an employer, a family member, or a friend who has a lot of influence in your life.

Consider whether a relationship is causing you unnecessary stress? Is your social life a source of positivity or negativity? This exercise is not about blame. You are simply deciding how your various relationships affect your emotional energy. Two nature pixies hug as they look out over a beautiful landscape that is both snowy and filled with flowers. Strong relationships are not seasonal or available only when it is convenient. When you are in ideal relationships, you can find the beauty, grace, and charm of people you are with. The butterflies fluttering around the flowers indicate you are more than capable of making the changes needed to create loving and positive relationships. The flowers represent blessings, protection and potential growth for all involved. The bird is a messenger. There is a situation before you that needs to be met heads on. You deserve to have relationships that are loving and supportive of you. Take responsibility for your role in this situation but be clear about what it is that you want as an outcome. If a relationship is sincere the communication is relaxed and calm, if there is honesty, both parties feel empowered and your life is better with this person in it.

In Summary,August is the month to re-write your story. To make the necessary changes needed to have the life you desire. Mediate daily, ask yourself all the important questions mentioned above through the reading. Most importantly, when conflict and chaos visit, stop for a moment, handle it differently, break the old pattens. Try a different more understanding approach. Be kind to yourself and others. Don’t forget your most special gift from August, You are totally deserving of a loving happy life full of loving and happy relationships!

I Wish You An Authentic August

Lions Gate Portal

August is also the month of the Lions Gate Portal! Every year on the 8th day of the 8th month of the year (August 8th), there is a cosmic alignment called “the Lions Gateway”. The Lions Gate is a time of increased cosmic energy flowing between the physical and spiritual realms.

This gateway is about turning a page, it’s about ascending, reaching a new level of Love and Light and stepping into greater harmony and alignment with the Truth that you are One with the Divine, One with All, and that you can have and be anything you truly desire.

Big things like relationships, career changes, life purpose, health, home, travel, soul work, letting go of material things (and a few other themes too) are highlighted at this time. Everything is up for review now, the big question being does it serve your Authentic Truth? Is it in alignment with love and with your soul growth and ascension? Don’t be surprised if something, or everything in your life seems to be in a flux.

Ultimately, these changes we're each going to go through in our own unique way serve to align us more fully with our authentic truth, and with the next level of love and light that we can experience in our lives.
