You’ve probably heard the buzz around 8/8, especially since 2024 is an 8 year. But the Lion’s Gate portal is about so much more than “manifesting your desires” and the numerological significance of 8. At least to me.
Every year, from July 26th to August 12th, the Earth aligns with the star Sirius (also referred to as our Spiritual Sun) and the earthly Sun in Leo. This alignment peaks on the 8th and is believed to create a gateway that enhances the flow of energy between the physical and spiritual realms.
My business was born during this alignment in 2022, and last year in the final days of July, I met my Sirian family for the first time.
I’m not talking I connected with them through astral projection or meditation.
They visited me. Here. On Earth. In my bedroom.
I had heard of starseeds before my encounter of course but to be honest I thought it was all a bit over-embelished or made up entirely. I took the “what kind of starseed are you” quizzes online and chalked it up to just a way to appease people who never felt like they belonged here (I include myself in this category).
Perhaps that’s why my family decided they really needed to make their presence known and remove the final shreds of doubt about who I am and why I’m here.
They woke me up in the dead of night and put me in a sort of sleep paralysis. I was fully awake, fully conscious, but my body felt like a brick and I couldn’t move. My eyes were glued shut but the room felt crowded and the energy was eager and excited. As if they had been wanting to visit for a while but were patiently waiting for me to be open enough to receive them and not freak the fuck out.
A kind, calm, feminine sounding voice hovered over me and asked me telepathically, “are you ready for your next level of activation?”
And to my surprise, without a second of hesitation I told her “yes”.
I could feel them smile and the excitement in the room start to grow. Then suddenly as if they had turned on a switch, my body began to vibrate in rhythmic pulses. I felt as if I was laying directly on top of a speaker at a rock concert with the bass turned all the way up.
I just laid there for what felt like hours receiving these pulsating vibrations. I tried asking them questions about who they were and what the “activation” was for but they didn’t respond. They just sat with me as I move through this experience.
Then in an instant - it all stopped. My body was still, the room was empty and I could open my eyes. Not a minute had gone by on the clock.
That’s when my human ego starting chattering “what the FUCK was that?!”. I started trying to justify what I had just experienced, reasoning with myself that I must have been dreaming and if anyone was actually here my dogs would have woken up or there would be some shred of physical evidence. I sent panicked voice notes to my friend who I knew believed in aliens and starseeds in hopes that she would respond with something that made me feel less crazy.
Not only did she help me feel less crazy, but she helped me understand the significance of what I had just experienced.
In the following days, weeks and months, I learned that the “activation” was of a new level of consciousness that came with a new understanding of my mission here. I am never alone, anymore. Even when I think I am I ask for their help and they appear around me, like when E.T. was hiding in the pile of stuffed animals.
They’re with me when I work, when I’m driving, when I meet with clients. But they don’t ever impose, they always wait for me to ask for their guidance.
Their patience with me is seriously impressive.
I fall out of touch with them sometimes when I get too caught up in my human emotions or ego’s need for control. They love our emotions, by the way. They think they’re absolutely fascinating and enjoy witnessing me experience the full spectrum of mine. I wonder if they had any part in my choice to incarnate as a double Cancer…
I had been feeling disconnected lately, but now, right on schedule, their presence has come back in full. I don’t think the timing is a coincidence.
They’ve reminded me that business is just business. I can do whatever I want with it - as long as I’m enjoying the process. Because my mission, my true purpose can be carried out no matter what my offers look like or what social media platforms I promote them on.
I am here to help ground the energy as our collective consciousness awakens. To challenge what we’ve been led to believe is “normal” and pioneer new ways of doing things. They put me here to help humanity move forward and make the ascension a little less scary for those who aren’t aware of what’s happening, yet.
But it’s not a mission I’m on alone.
Do you ever feel chronically homesick? Or thinking to yourself “I want to go home” while you’re sitting in your living room? If you’ve found me, I’m willing to bet it’s because you’re not from here, either.
But just because our souls are from another star system, it doesn’t make the Earth any less special. Think about it - how special must this planet be in order for us to voluntarily leave our higher dimensional families to incarnate here?
The shift in collective consciousness is not just for us. It’s not just for the human race. It’s for her. The mission is to save the Earth.
So on this special day, I hope you take the time you to pause to take the time to remember who you are and why you’re here. And that you are never alone.
We love you so much,
Marissa & Team xo
Such a fascinating read! I had a similar experience to the one you described several years ago but had no reference point for it. I’m meditating, praying and journaling today as a way to honor this Lion’s Gate.
