On July 24, 2025 we greet the New Moon in Leo—a moment to plant seeds of intention, align with heart-centered courage, and reclaim the radiant light within.
Leo is ruled by the Sun, the source of warmth, vitality, and visibility. And when the Moon is new in this bold fire sign, we’re invited to look inward and ask:
What am I ready to create?
Where am I ready to shine more fully?
What does my soul desire to express in the world?
This New Moon is no ordinary one—it’s also a powerful prelude to one of the most energetically charged times of the year: the Lion’s Gate Portal.
You’re Invited: The Lion’s Gate Gathering
Saturday, August 9, 2025
3:00 – 5:00 PM EST
$35 – Priced for an easy yes
This soulful online retreat is your invitation to step through the Lion’s Gate with intention, confidence, and creative fire.
What Is the Lion’s Gate?
Each year, from July 26 to August 12, the Lion’s Gate Portal opens—a cosmic alignment with the Sun in Leo, and Sirius the brightest star in the night sky aligned with the constellation Orion. This alignment peaks on August 8 (8/8), a day filled with the energy of infinity, abundance, and soul alignment.
Sirius, sometimes called the Spiritual Sun, shines 20 times brighter than our Sun. It’s a potent time to set intentions, awaken your creativity, reconnect with your soul’s purpose, and align with your highest self.
What You’ll Experience
In this guided, live retreat, we’ll come together to:
- Explore the energetic connection between Leo, the Sun, Sirius, and the Solar Plexus Chakra
- Take a Soul Journey to release blocks and powerfully set intentions
- 50 minutes of time to express what’s rising within you through intuitive, symbolic art
- Optional sharing circle for connection and encouragement. We are better together—this is what women circles are all about.
- First ten to register will get 1:1 with Kathryn during the event to connect
- Recording of the presentation and meditation so you can revisit or catch up anytime. The sharing circle is not recorded.
This is more than a class—it’s a portal of transformation.
