Embrace the Lion’s Gate Portal: A Journey into Sound Meditation

This morning unfolded in a way I couldn’t have planned. Yet, it taught me something sacred about presence and technology.

The Unexpected Journey Begins

Everything was ready. I had tested the tech the day before and checked all the connections. This was to be my first YouTube Live Soundbath for the Lion’s Gate Portal—a powerful cosmic alignment I had been preparing for with care and devotion.

Then, as I went live, the microphone lights went out. Dead. Silent. I wasn’t sure if I was even audible. I tried everything I could in those few frantic moments. Eventually, I ended the live stream, and with it, the link I had shared with others disappeared too.

So, I faced a choice: abandon the plan or start over.

Despite the uncertainty, I remembered my original intention: to offer this transmission regardless of who showed up. I trusted that those who were meant to receive it would find it.

At exactly 8:00 AM, I started the new stream. By 8:08 AM, I offered a moment of silence as planned.

What followed was beyond my expectations.

The Power of Sound

The bowls sang like I’d never heard them before. Something deeper was moving through. It felt as though the sound itself was being channeled by the energies of this powerful day. It was a transmission from Source. We closed the session with the heart-opening mantra:

"Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu"

May all beings everywhere be happy and free.

I felt an unmistakable shift in energy afterward—not just within myself, but in the field around me. If you couldn’t be there live, the recording is still available to receive whenever you're ready. Here it is.

Why the Lion’s Gate is So Significant

The Lion’s Gate Portal peaks each year on August 8th (8/8). This time marks when the Earth, the star Sirius, and the Sun (in the sign of Leo) align in a cosmic configuration known to amplify transformation, awakening, and abundance.

The Significance of the Number 8

The number 8 in numerology symbolizes infinity, balance, divine order, and power. On 8/8, we’re offered an energetic gateway—a moment when we can tune into higher frequencies of consciousness, activate our soul gifts, and receive clear spiritual insight.

This is not a time for pushing. It is a time for listening. For tuning in. For stillness. For allowing light to move through the sound and awaken remembrance.

The Lesson from the Glitch

In many ways, the unexpected tech glitch this morning reminded me: this is live, raw, unfiltered. It’s not a studio production, and there’s no team behind me. The sound is simply a canvas—your presence is the true portal.

As you listen, I invite you to use headphones and a stable internet connection for the clearest experience. But more importantly, come with your full self. Allow yourself to settle into the moment. The bowls, the chimes, the silence, the mantra—they are guides, but you are the one holding the key.

This Soundbath is for You If…

• You’re seeking clarity, inner peace, or renewal.

• You’ve felt the intensity of this year and crave a moment to realign.

• You’re ready to step into your soul’s next chapter—with courage, gentleness, and love.

  
  

The Benefits of Sound Meditation

Sound meditation can be a transformative experience. It allows you to connect deeply with your inner self. The vibrations from the bowls can help restore your nervous system to its natural state. This is especially beneficial for those leading busy lives.

You may find it challenging to be still, to pause, and to breathe. Sound meditation offers a holistic way to slow down and connect with your intuition. It creates a space for relaxation and restoration.

How to Prepare for Your Sound Meditation

1. Create a Comfortable Space: Find a quiet place where you won’t be disturbed. Make it cozy with cushions or blankets.

2. Set an Intention: Before you start, take a moment to set an intention for your meditation. What do you hope to achieve?

3. Limit Distractions: Turn off your phone notifications and any other distractions that might interrupt your experience.

4. Use Headphones: For the best sound quality, use headphones. This will enhance your experience and allow you to immerse yourself fully in the sound.
