So many lightworkers and dissociated love-and-light-ers get excited about the Lion's Gate portal every year on August 8th. Or any time they think they can download "stellar codes". Just look at all the starseed garbage out there, which is as diluted, twisted, commodified and wrong as most Twin Flame information is. I see people doing a portal ceremony for the collective on the Lion's Gate portal every year, and I truly just think it's all marketing and delusion. Either they're not connecting to Sirius at all, or they're calling in a Tower moment for the collective.
Hekate is associated with the Dog Star, the very same Sirius that everyone gets so excited to call in every year on August 8th. However, there is a reason why the ancients considered Sirius to be potentially baleful and dangerous. The Dog Star's light does not come so cheaply.
Many people associate Hekate with The Moon card, which is perfectly valid. However, I associate Her strongly with the dynamic of The Tower and The Star. She is Herself the Dog Star, and She is also the Underworld power that brings destruction.
There is a reason why The Star, the 17th Trump, comes after The Tower in the Major Arcana. The Tower has to be broken down first before The Star's light can shine through. This is not just about a peaceful "let go of what no longer serves you". That's more of a 6 of Swords energy. The Tower is complete, bone-deep destruction. It can leave generations of trauma. It's the kind of thing that can't be given a positive spin at all while it's happening. In order for the Dog Star's light to illuminate human consciousness and bring Heaven on Earth and Harmonious Twin Flame Union for all, it's going to have to bring a kind of apocalyptic destruction.
That is certainly what's happening in my life.
