  Dora: Ay Mijita, have you been feeling all the feels lately?
• 0:09
  Dora: Or maybe this energy got you waking up at 3 am, thinking about your whole vida, same aquí.
• 0:16
  Dora: This episode is all about the Lionsgate energy and how the upcoming full moon is stirring things up.
• 0:23
  Dora: Para que te reencuentres contigo misma, para que brilles desde adentro para afuera.
• 0:29
  Dora: Welcome back to Ay Mijita, embracing your roots, reclaim your esencia.
• 0:35
  Dora: I'm your Dora Alicia Praxedis, intuitive guide, shamanic practitioner, energy healer and your comadre for all things ancestral healing, emotional wellness and energetic resetsre for all things ancestral healing, emotional wellness and energetic resets.
• 0:48
  Dora: Today's episode is juicy.
• 0:49
  Dora: We're talking about the Lionsgate Portal, the energetic doorway that opens every year on August 8th and this upcoming full moon in Aquarius.
• 0:59
  Dora: I'm gonna break it down for you in grounded, corazón-led way, sharing how I use this time for limpias, realigning with my intentions and tuning into la voz de mi alma.
• 1:10
  Dora: So grab your agüita, your journal, and let's dive in now.
• 1:33
  Dora: Diving into what is the Lionsgate portal.
• 1:34
  Dora: It's something that I look forward to every year and for me, it's probably because I have my anniversary with my husband and we're about 23 years in, and it just so happens to be on 8-8.
• 1:44
  Dora: And I also thought it's also colliding with the full moon.
• 1:49
  Dora: So I've been feeling a lot of emotional things lately and definitely trying to navigate the waters at work and my personal life with my family relationships and all it's been pretty turbulent.
• 2:03
  Dora: I don't know about you, and if you're hearing this episode around the time that it drops, you might be able to notice some of these things too.
• 2:11
  Dora: But regardless, if you're listening to this episode later in time, you will still definitely get a dose of a message that needs to come through for you.
• 2:20
  Dora: So the Lionsgate portal is an energetic alignment that happens every year on August 8th.
• 2:28
  Dora: So again 8-8.
• 2:29
  Dora: And one thing I find really fascinating is if you turn the 8 like sideways, it's an infinity symbol.
• 2:36
  Dora: So that is something that I've always noticed and really powerful for me.
• 2:43
  Dora: And so when I was younger, I did this compatibility test with my then boyfriend, philly now husband and I seriously thought we were going to be together forever, and hopefully that is the case.
• 2:54
  Dora: So that's where our anniversary does fall, on 8-8.
• 2:57
  Dora: And that's why it means so much to me.
• 3:01
  Dora: So on 8-8, this is when the sun is in Leo and the star Sirius rises to the sky and we get a powerful alignment with earth and the galactic center and I know this is all kind of astrology things, but it's very meaningful.
• 3:17
  Dora: So in astrology and spiritual traditions, sirius is known as the high frequency star, associated with abundance, divine wisdom and higher consciousness.
• 3:26
  Dora: So why is this so powerful?
• 3:28
  Dora: Because we're in Leo season, baby, and it's a lot of heat right and fire, but it's also about the heart, authenticity and stepping into our radiance, our loose, and when 8-8 rolls around, it's like this energetic amplifier that invites us to dream big, release fear and manifest with clarity.
• 3:52
  Dora: So lately I've been getting triggered as fuck and it's probably bringing me some clarity the contrast and the fighting and all or the discussions that happen around this time, and so we call it Lionsgate because of this fiery Leo energy and it comes through as confident, bold, heart-centered.
• 4:12
  Dora: It's also the sign that rules the heart chakra.
• 4:15
  Dora: So if you're having troubles with the heart, that's probably why there's a lot of things that are triggering, especially in relationships to come afloat so we can have these discussions and kind of clear the clutter, clear the air.
• 4:28
  Dora: So I want you to pause, if you can, and reflect on these questions and obviously, if you're driving, keep on driving.
• 4:44
  Dora: Want you to reflect on where are you hiding your luz, your voice or your truth.
• 4:50
  Dora: What would it look like to express your authentic self, sin miedo, like not holding anything back?
• 4:59
  Dora: What would that look like for you?
• 5:01
  Dora: One thing I was meditating on was how I sometimes bite my tongue when I want to say something, because I can come across really sharp, like a dagger, my words, and so I have to be careful with those.
• 5:15
  Dora: But then again, I do want to honor my truth and when I don't like or appreciate something, finding that way to express it in a love and compassion way, without sounding too bitchy.
• 5:29
  Dora: Right, because, especially being a girl or a woman, it might come across as, oh, and this was the ass or that type of thing.
• 5:37
  Dora: And maybe I am, but it just rubs me a wrong way or it just doesn't sit well with me.
• 5:43
  Dora: It just rubs me a wrong way or it just doesn't sit well with me, and that's where getting triggered in those ways means that we just need to communicate.
• 5:51
  Dora: It could be our boundaries, it could be the way we feel once we process it a bit, but it's getting down to kind of that root of what's going on.
• 6:00
  Dora: Another way I like to express myself is dancing, so I will often just turn on music.
• 6:10
  Dora: This is my favorite, sitting in the car blasting the music to my favorite reggaeton song, or I am like singing Como la Flor de Selena at the high pitch, like that's my jam, so that's where.
• 6:23
  Dora: Just be you and bring it back to what causes you to move, like your body, or like really find your jam.
• 6:32
  Dora: Those are the things that should be so sacred for you and bring you back to center when you're feeling like the tippy cup, like at the carnival, like spinning out of control.
• 6:46
  Dora: This year the Lion's Gate energy is syncing up with the full moon in Aquarius, which is going to bring a whole other flavor to this portal.
• 6:54
  Dora: Full moons are always about release shining light on what's hidden.
• 6:59
  Dora: A great metaphor my astrologer used with me to explain this has been when the light is shining bright.
• 7:08
  Dora: So full moon is when the moon is the brightest and it's shining on a pool and all the stuff that's at the bottom of the pool comes to light.
• 7:17
  Dora: That's kind of what's being worked on, like it's all the way at the bottom of the pool but it's there and it's so visible to the eyes when that moonlight is shining so bright.
• 7:30
  Dora: And Aquarius energy brings up themes around community versus individuality, emotional detachment versus overthinking, visionary ideas versus grounded action.
• 7:43
  Dora: So what might come up during this time?
• 7:46
  Dora: Feeling emotionally overstimulated or even disconnected, conflicts around belonging, speaking up or expressing your vision, old cycles around rejection, people pleasing or self-doubt.
• 7:59
  Dora: Bubbling up the energy, with this full moon in Aquarius is ushering in change and progress.
• 8:09
  Dora: So top five questions you should ask yourself are have I been pragmatic to the point of losing the romance of life?
• 8:15
  Dora: Have I been living too much in my head and not enough in my heart?
• 8:20
  Dora: Have I been trying to do things my way for the sake of it?
• 8:25
  Dora: Have I been trying too hard to befriend people, and for the wrong reasons?
• 8:31
  Dora: And have I allowed myself to move forward this month?
• 8:36
  Dora: And the message here is it's time to detach and let go like for real.
• 8:40
  Dora: So find a balance between trying to be all things to all people versus having real relationships.
• 8:46
  Dora: Forgive and perform a ceremony of forgiveness and I'll walk through a few steps later in this episode and practice gratitude as well.
• 8:59
  Dora: Pero, mijita, this is an opportunity not to panic or shut down, but to pause, cleanse and recalibrate.
• 9:07
  Dora: Some more questions for you to reflect on in your journal.
• 9:11
  Dora: Am I surrounding myself with people who see me clearly and celebrate my vision.
• 9:16
  Dora: What am I ready to release under this full moon?
• 9:20
  Dora: This is a great time to meditate on these things and really do this ritual of letting go.
• 9:25
  Dora: Let me share how I move through this energy in my own practice.
• 9:31
  Dora: So first of all, I start with a limpia con un huevo, especially if I've been feeling heavy emotionally or mentally, this helps me clear the energetic field and connect back to my intuition, and I like to kind of read the huevo and see what else comes up.
• 9:47
  Dora: The next thing I do during a full moon is I light a candle and set intentions for what I'm ready to call in Not just manifestations, but feeling peace, clarity and confianza.
• 9:58
  Dora: I also like to automatic write, and so I journal about what I'm releasing and what I'm reclaiming during this time, and especially the release part.
• 10:09
  Dora: That's something that is so relieving.
• 10:12
  Dora: So for the full moon I do a small release ritual, outside, weather permitting, where I write down what I'm letting go of and burn it safely I do have a fire pit outside and then I say a prayer and an intention.
• 10:28
  Dora: There are crystals that I work with as well, and for this Leo season it's and I'm totally going to butcher the name on this is cardiline for confidence, sunstone for joy and prite for abundance For the Aquarius full moon.
• 10:47
  Dora: I love to work with amethyst for clarity, fluorite for mental balance and selenite for purification.
• 10:56
  Dora: I actually have an amethyst bracelet that I wear all the time because that really helps me keep my clarity, especially when I'm doing work on others.
• 11:07
  Dora: That's something that really grounds me and, no lie, sometimes I just take a spiritual bath, so in the shower and I play some music.
• 11:17
  Dora: Could be from my childhood.
• 11:18
  Dora: I like to reminisce on those things and most of the time it's where I let myself cry like for no good reason, and that is super cleansing.
• 11:29
  Dora: That's healing too.
• 11:31
  Dora: And when I was young I remember that I would cry for everything I felt like and I was told that I was too emotional or that I was sensitive.
• 11:42
  Dora: But that's when I was doing my own rituals and cleansing Because I felt, after a great cry, like I feel so good.
• 11:51
  Dora: Obviously I feel all mokosa and stuffy and my eyes are all red and puffy, but it helps so much just to release and, you know, not hold it together, right, like we're always taught, or I was taught to hold my shit together.
• 12:06
  Dora: And when I do those things.
• 12:09
  Dora: For myself, it's just a big like release of the bottleneck that I've been holding back on.
• 12:15
  Dora: It's like a volcano ready to erupt kind of thing, but in a good way, in a good emotional way.
• 12:20
  Dora: And right now is the time to do it, when it's the full moon.
• 12:25
  Dora: So, in your journal, I want you to reflect on what rituals or practices help you come back to yourself when everything feels too loud.
• 12:34
  Dora: How do you go back to center?
• 12:36
  Dora: What would a soul level reset look like for you right now?
• 12:41
  Dora: So think about these things and how you want to proceed during this full moon.
• 12:47
  Dora: Okay, let's talk about what to be mindful of during this time.
• 12:53
  Dora: Don't force clarity.
• 12:55
  Dora: Allow space for it to rise.
• 12:57
  Dora: So sometimes the ego wants to, you know, get shit done.
• 13:00
  Dora: That's where you have to, okay, sit yourself right back down that tush in the seat and just let it come through naturally.
• 13:12
  Dora: Avoid comparing your journey to others, especially online.
• 13:15
  Dora: This is a big one, because when you're comparing yourself to others, it's mostly because you probably want to achieve what the other person has, especially if you feel like you're being left behind, and I want you to really sit with that and allow yourself to see yourself fulfilling those results Like you're going to get there.
• 13:37
  Dora: Often, when we compare ourselves, we feel this envy or jealousy, or resentment, but know that if you really want to, you can get there.
• 13:49
  Dora: You give yourself permission to go there, daydream about it, and if not, you can do it even more chingon even better.
• 13:57
  Dora: So be gentle with your nervous system.
• 14:02
  Dora: So overstimulation is real.
• 14:04
  Dora: So sit down, chillax, time will come, everything will come, and it's due time, in divine timing, I like to call it.
• 14:13
  Dora: And remember to breathe.
• 14:16
  Dora: It's going to be okay.
• 14:18
  Dora: And one good thing that you could do if you feel like your nervous system is out of control and out of whack, I would suggest you wash your hands with cold water and maybe sing happy birthday song or twinkle, twinkle little star is my favorite and regulate yourself, because sometimes you overcommit and now is not the time for that.
• 14:40
  Dora: Now is the time to slow down, especially since we're still in Mercury retrograde until August 11th.
• 14:45
  Dora: So we're almost there.
• 14:46
  Dora: Just make sure you're really taking care of yourself and having that personal time to do what you got to do.
• 14:55
  Dora: And that could also happen spur of the moment during the day, like when you're committed or in the middle of something, just if you need to take that bathroom break.
• 15:04
  Dora: Go sit down in the potty and just collect yourself.
• 15:07
  Dora: Do what you got to do.
• 15:10
  Dora: Watch for the ego versus corazón.
• 15:12
  Dora: So this Leo energy can hype us up, and the goal isn't to prove, it's to be.
• 15:18
  Dora: So remember, just be, be here, be in the present, be in the now moment.
• 15:25
  Dora: There are so many times that I override my heart, like me da una corazonada that it's not right or I shouldn't do this, but I'm going to do it anyway because my mind says, nope, we got to do it, we got to get shit done, and sometimes it's not, it's not the right time.
• 15:42
  Dora: So honor that, honor that your heart or your gut is telling you okay, let's take it slow.
• 15:51
  Dora: There's something here, before you jump the gun or jump to conclusions on what the ego wants to see and sometimes that's the prejudice that we have, or we have this preconception of things and we don't let life unfold and surprise us Sometimes there's so many beautiful things we miss out on because we're so stuck to the outcome or the expectations, or I needed to be a certain way and no, let all that go.
• 16:19
  Dora: Let all that go, especially with control.
• 16:22
  Dora: So remember, you don't got to prove nothing to nobody.
• 16:25
  Dora: You just have to be and be yourself, and this collective energy feels like a deep invitation to speak your truth, even if your voice shakes.
• 16:36
  Dora: Choose yourself without guilt and release timelines, expectations and old roles that you've outgrown, especially with those limiting beliefs.
• 16:47
  Dora: Hi Mijita, I always tell this to myself you don't need to have it all figured out, you just need to listen to your inner wisdom.
• 16:53
  Dora: That's your compass.
• 16:55
  Dora: You should be following.
• 16:55
  Dora: That's the map, and if this time is bringing up a lot, you're not alone.
• 17:02
  Dora: Be tender with yourself, rest, hydrate and breathe.
• 17:06
  Dora: So to help with this, here's an affirmation you can tell yourself Yo me doy permiso to shine, to pause and to realign with my truth.
• 17:18
  Dora: I honor what's ready to be released and what's waiting to rise and, of course, I have a special treat for you.
• 17:37
  Dora: So I love to pull oracle cards as part of my practice for the full moon and I'm going to share with you a spread, a full moon release spread, that I have from 111 Oracle Spreads for Every Day, book by Crystal Banner.
• 17:55
  Dora: And with this spread, it's when a luminous full moon hangs low and bright in the sky.
• 18:01
  Dora: It exerts a powerful influence, shedding a light on the uncomfortable parts of ourselves that we might prefer to keep in shadow.
• 18:09
  Dora: This is the phase in the lunar cycle for letting go and releasing all the things, people and emotions that no longer serve.
• 18:17
  Dora: You Use this spread to identify what you need to let go of to move forward.
• 18:21
  Dora: So the first card that I pulled was what is the full moon illuminating that needs to be released?
• 18:28
  Dora: And I'm going to go with my gal, yasmin Boland, and she has the Moonology Manifestation Oracle cards and in this case I didn't pull only one card.
• 18:40
  Dora: I pulled two came out and I'm like how yummy and delicious.
• 18:44
  Dora: So the first card is first quarter moon in Sagittarius, which is believe in your good luck With this card.
• 18:52
  Dora: It's whatever is going on in your life.
• 18:54
  Dora: You need to take care of the small stuff and the big stuff will fall into place.
• 18:58
  Dora: Problems can arise now because of carelessness or judgment lapse.
• 19:01
  Dora: Avoid telling everyone your opinion until you're sure you know exactly what's going on.
• 19:06
  Dora: Think about the baby steps you need to take on your way to your goal and don't take too many risks.
• 19:12
  Dora: Believe in your own good luck and don't be arrogant about it.
• 19:15
  Dora: Think an important decision through very carefully before taking action.
• 19:20
  Dora: So the way I interpret this one for our collective is to believe, to let go of that belief that it's all about luck.
• 19:28
  Dora: Right, there is a little effort that goes into it.
• 19:31
  Dora: The second card that came up was first quarter moon in Capricorn Unleash your kindest self.
• 19:37
  Dora: So with this card it's.
• 19:39
  Dora: Are you being too hard on yourself or someone else?
• 19:41
  Dora: Do you think you need to be strict with yourself or other people to get to where you want to go?
• 19:46
  Dora: Your challenge now is to be disciplined in terms of doing what needs to be done to get to where you want to go.
• 19:49
  Dora: Your challenge now is to be disciplined in terms of doing what needs to be done to get what you want without sucking all the joy out of it.
• 19:55
  Dora: Feeling good about life is one of the most powerful tools you have when it comes to manifesting.
• 20:00
  Dora: So be kind and be your most charming self.
• 20:03
  Dora: So, with the first card on, believe you're good luck.
• 20:09
  Dora: That's where you're releasing that you need to have all this hard work, and that's what I'm trying and that's what I'm getting.
• 20:15
  Dora: It's giving yourself permission to dream and but you don't have to work so hard.
• 20:21
  Dora: So believe that you do have luck and release that.
• 20:24
  Dora: Release that out to the universe.
• 20:26
  Dora: Release that, release that out to the universe.
• 20:27
  Dora: Now with the, unleash your kindest self.
• 20:29
  Dora: It's good to be realistic, but you don't have to be hanging on to the reality to the point where you no longer see like the beauty in everything.
• 20:43
  Dora: And with this one it's also getting that right mindset to decide that you're no longer going to fall for certain things or provoke a situation, that you're going to be kind to yourself and to others, and that's what we're releasing.
• 20:58
  Dora: We need to fix everything and we need to be there for everybody.
• 21:03
  Dora: It's releasing that side of us that we always want to make everything like our problem.
• 21:08
  Dora: It's releasing that side of us that we always want to make everything like our problem and so release that.
• 21:13
  Dora: Now.
• 21:13
  Dora: The second card is for this full moon release spread is what inner resources can I call upon to help me?
• 21:19
  Dora: Let go?
• 21:20
  Dora: And for this one I pulled the full moon in Virgo.
• 21:23
  Dora: Take inspired action.
• 21:25
  Dora: This card is bursting with goddess energy and reminds you that while it's wonderful to have lofty dreams, you also need to ground those desires by taking inspired action.
• 21:35
  Dora: Commune with the heavens, but take practical steps down here on earth.
• 21:39
  Dora: Draw down the energies of divine by doing something as seemingly trivial as making a bullet point list of what you need to do to manifest your dreams into reality.
• 21:49
  Dora: Also, know that you're 100% worthy of your dreams.
• 21:54
  Dora: Ditch the self-criticism and second-guessing yourself and others.
• 21:59
  Dora: So it's important to believe in our dreams, but we also need to take practical steps towards them.
• 22:05
  Dora: So this energy of this card will help you connect with that reality.
• 22:10
  Dora: So tap into your inner resource of what are the next practical steps and make that bullet point list.
• 22:17
  Dora: One affirmation that is with this card is I forgive myself for everything.
• 22:23
  Dora: I am doing my best.
• 22:26
  Dora: Now the third card represents what space will this release make room for?
• 22:31
  Dora: And the card pulled for this one is first quarter moon in Scorpio.
• 22:36
  Dora: Release your blocks.
• 22:38
  Dora: So when it comes to pushing through your fears and any other negative feelings, you're going to have to dig deeper.
• 22:45
  Dora: The only thing we have to fear is fear itself, because fear blocks us.
• 22:51
  Dora: Make time to clear any toxic feelings around you.
• 22:54
  Dora: Don't let pride stop you from showing how dearly you want something.
• 22:58
  Dora: It's okay to be vulnerable If you know the people you're dealing with are trustworthy.
• 23:03
  Dora: Think about others as much as yourself.
• 23:05
  Dora: So with this card, we're releasing so much, so then we can call in our full potential.
• 23:14
  Dora: So it's.
• 23:15
  Dora: I feel like this is like a mental detox that you can do, because these blocks and these fears that come up and these insecurities and that, like, once we release all those things, we're able to have like sky's the limit right.
• 23:31
  Dora: So, using this full moon energy and just focusing on what are the feelings and emotions coming up and digging deeper.
• 23:42
  Dora: The last card in this reading is the question how will this new space empower me?
• 23:48
  Dora: And I pulled the full moon in Capricorn.
• 23:53
  Dora: Take a reality check.
• 23:54
  Dora: This card has two sides to it, literally and metaphorically.
• 23:59
  Dora: If you've been worrying about something, the good news is that you shouldn't waste another moment worrying, as this won't help.
• 24:06
  Dora: Some things only happen once and that could be really good news.
• 24:10
  Dora: If you're wondering about how something you're keen on is going to turn out, this card could be a sign that you've hit a roadblock.
• 24:19
  Dora: If you want to change that, you're going to need to put in extra effort with your manifesting work.
• 24:24
  Dora: So for manifesting balance, find a balance between facing your reality and be kind to yourself and others, manifesting mindset.
• 24:34
  Dora: If you're not happy with the message of this card, use the old trick of finding the best thought you can about your situation and go from there.
• 24:40
  Dora: So what I'm gathering from this one card is see where you're at right now and what are the steps forward and sometimes it could be a hot mess where you're at, but know that things.
• 24:55
  Dora: You should look at things prospectively instead of thinking, oh I, you know all the mistakes and things that I've made.
• 25:03
  Dora: So again, with this full moon energy, you want to get clear on where I'm at right now.
• 25:10
  Dora: So then you can see the growth that you had, let's say, a year ago, like where are you at right now?
• 25:16
  Dora: That's the things that you should focus on.
• 25:19
  Dora: So an affirmation with this card is everything is always working out in my favor.
• 25:26
  Dora: So, again, some of these messages are not that groovy, but they are spicy and juicy.
• 25:31
  Dora: So sit with them, reflect on them and journal about them, like what comes up.
• 25:38
  Dora: Gracias for tuning into the sacred moment with me.
