Lion’s Gate Portal (8/8) and Full Moon in Aquarius (8/9) Oracle Message
Select one of the three cards above — #57 Unmarked Trail, #38 Many Masks, #31 In The Hand
Welcome to your guidance for the 8/8 Lion’s Gate Portal and the 8/9 Full Moon in Aquarius
This is a pretty major reading.
Full moons are great times for us to release the stories, limiting beliefs, and patterns that no longer serve us; it doesn’t have to be personal, it’s just that sometimes we’ve outgrown the structures we used to rely on.
And when we combine that with the energy of Aquarius, we’re being asked to liberate ourselves and our communities from the constraints of oppressive systems. Now is a moment for Truth, Justice, and Liberation.
Now combine that with the gorgeous, uplifting energy of the August 8th Lion’s Gate Portal and we’re stepping into the spotlight of our co-creation with the universe. It’s a massive spiritual upgrade.
It’s that delicate moment between who you are, what you desire, and how you own your spiritual radiance with a breaking free of constraints in service of humanity as a whole.
So before we get started with the pile selection … I invite you to take three deep breaths.
One of the oracle cards above has a message for you.
Which one is reaching out to you?
Connect with your intuition on this one. There are no wrong answers here. Whichever card feels right for you, is right for you.
Then when you’re ready, scroll down for your Shaman’s Dream oracle message.

#57: Unmarked Trail
An unprecedented experience, discovery, revelation
You are called now to embark on a sacred journey. The Arthurian knights in their quest for the Holy Grail had to make sure to take an unmarked trail that no one had ever followed, or they would not accomplish their goal.
Likewise, you must enter the darkest forest of your soul via a route as yet unidentified to find what you seek.
The manicured paths will bring you only temporary pleasure and later great pain. Stop it! You already know there is no reward at the end of the road you are following. You are only killing time.
Pause, breathe, and commit in your heart to a sacred endeavor. Vow to not look for old solutions that may have worked with past challenges. Get out of character, try the outrageous, and keep your quest private.
Now is not the time to speak of the voice that called you to embark on the Unmarked Trail. That time will come. The Unmarked Trail can be a sign that you have already made a choice, even if you do not want to acknowledge it.
Be at peace with what your heart knows to be true. Your heart has already been “made up,” and your mind will follow.
Pack lightly, taking with you only essential beliefs that you know to be trustworthy under all circumstances. The Universe has your back.

#38: Many Masks
The authentic self, energizing internal allies, a conscious shift
We live in a world where everyone we see wears a mask.
We wear these masks to cover up and protect who we really are. We learn to do so because we’ve been conditioned to try to appear a certain way to fit into society. Masks allow us to belong, so we remain within the confines of what is expected.
Masks are not inherently bad. Rather, they provide context and structure for our personalities and souls’ expression. Some of us might believe that a particular mask, fixed and hardened onto us, is our permanent face.
We forget that we are living beings, with a multitude of faces, enabling us to experience a fuller, more vibrant world. Your authentic essence doesn’t want to be constrained by others’ expectations anymore.
Now is the time to strip away the mask you’ve accepted and discover who you really are. A new self is emerging, and your perception changes as you adopt new ways of being.
Right now it's really important to allow yourself to experiment, to experience the world in all its myriad potentials and possibilities. Try on different masks, and let yourself be fluid and curious. How will you know what you love and what you resonate with if you don’t take of the mask you’ve always worn and test-drive some new ones?
Your authentic essence will never change; it will only express itself differently through these optional selves. Through trial and error, you discover more and more about who you want to become. What would it feel like to explore this side of you?
Anything is possible if you’re willing to open up to your potential. You truly can move beyond the barriers that society has set.
Use your imagination and step into the magic.

#31: In the Hand
Feeling secure, taken care of, the universe is your partner
Something amazing happens when you contemplate your intimate relationship with your Higher Power. How do you engage it? Perhaps you might have seen things through the influence of your religious background, or you may have been exposed to other ways of making that connection real for you.
It doesn't matter the source of your understanding; what matters is what works for you. For example, if you believe in a punitive God, you will be afraid of punishment for your transgressions. If you believe in a version of a Higher Power that blesses you, you may find it easier to surrender to a relationship of radical trust.
Right now, if you imagine relaxing, curled up in the hands of the Divine, how does that make you feel? Can you then turn over your needs and desires to that Divine Power and trust that you’re safe and secure and don't have to do anything at all to feel that way?
Grace is activated is your life now. You’re in good hands: your work, family, relationships, home—everything.
You’ve done all you can, so now is the time to rest and recharge instead of producing, doing, acting, strategizing.
A hot tea, a good book, and a soft blanket are in order.
