Cosmic Shifts: Embracing the Post-Lionsgate Calm | Energy & Astrology Update | Magical Michelle Orwick

Send us a text

Ever felt like you're stuck in cosmic limbo between intense astrological events? This week offers the sweet relief you've been craving. As we emerge from the illuminating Aquarian full moon, potent Lion's Gate portal, and Mercury retrograde, we're entering what can only be described as August's astrological sweet spot.

The rare conjunction of Venus and Jupiter creates a harmonious backdrop that especially benefits Taurus and Libra individuals but offers everyone a chance to experience more cooperation, manifestation, and joy. This celestial event, combined with a beautiful water trine between Pisces and Cancer energies, creates the perfect conditions for fluid transformation and dream-weaving. Though Mercury has technically stationed direct, give yourself a few days to fully feel its forward momentum as you begin organizing thoughts and taking those gentle, loving action steps toward your desires.

While the 8/8 Lion's Gate portal peak has passed, its transformative energy continues through the remainder of Leo season, giving us time to integrate downloads and prepare for the upcoming Virgo new moon on the 23rd. This period serves as valuable preparation before we dive deeper into eclipse season with two consecutive Virgo new moons (including September's partial solar eclipse). Now is the time to devote yourself to choices that make life more sacred, communicate your dreams to those around you, and collaborate with your spiritual team. When challenges arise, try shifting your perspective from "happening to you" to "happening for you" – you might discover that seeming obstacles are actually creating space for quantum leaps in your evolution.

Episode Transcript

Magical Michelle Orwick (00:20):
Welcome to Living Magically.
I'm your host, magical Michelle, and this is the energy update
and astrological forecast forthe week of August 11th, and one
of the things I want to sharewith you is that there is

(00:43):
finally a little bit of ease inthe intensity.
In fact, you may even befeeling a post full moon
hangover or a post Mercuryretrograde or post Lionsgate
hangover, and yet in that space,once you get past that rest and
recalibration this is a verybeautiful time frame and I

(01:09):
apologize if you usually expectme to come live at six o'clock,
I am coming a little early.
I'm actually live here inKansas City.
I've been doing an event withRima and we had just the most
magical time If you ever have achance to come to Kansas City.

(01:30):
I had no idea how absolutelyspectacular it is.
It's the third or fourth.
It's the fourth time I've beento Kansas City now and every
time I come I realize howwonderful this city is.
It's got labyrinths and UnityVillages and this time I got to

(01:52):
explore the Nelson Museum andit's bigger-than-life Kwan Yin
Temple and Stargate, which isright next to the Bloom Temple.
Really amazing.
And so, to all my friends andfamily here in Kansas City,
thank you for your warm welcomeand for all those who attended

(02:15):
our shaman weekend this weekendhere in the Bloom Temple whether
you were here in person,because it was a hybrid.
It was one of the first of manythat we actually did the
shamanism, partly um online atthe same time as in person, and
we were using crystals and oilsand journey work to do some

(02:39):
massively powerful andtransformational work.
And if that's something you'reinterested in, please reach out
because we will be doing.
We have a new offering ofcosmic shamanism coming out, and
so that'll be available thisweek to see more of that work,

(03:00):
that work.
But in the meantime, let's talkabout this week.
Let's talk about the fact that,yes, we had the full moon, yes,
it was illuminating, yes, itwas intense.
We had the lion's gate, it waspowerful, it was moving.
And now what's happening?

(03:21):
So August 11th and you may evenbe watching this later in the
week, but the effects of what'shappening today will be carrying
through as themes for thiswhole week.
First, we have what we've allbeen waiting for, which, every
time Venus conjuncts Jupiter,it's and it's very rare right.

(03:42):
We have harmony.
These are the two most joyfulsigns, and this is especially
for any, any Taurus or Libraruled person.
This is.
This is an absolutely lovelyexpression of the stars

(04:09):
happening right now.
It's the sweet spot of thewhole month.
So this little window, once youget over the hangover of the
full moon and the lion's gate,will give us an opportunity, and
you might even feel it more onTuesday or Wednesday than you do
on Monday, because it's stilljust happening.

(04:32):
The the ramifications will lastfor for a quite a bit of time.
When we look at this, theinvitation is to start with rest
, and to start with a little bitof rest, unwinding the past.
So anytime we come out of aMercury retrograde, we have to

(04:57):
take a couple days.
Mercury going direct today doesnot mean it feels like it's in
motion, but it does feel likethere's opportunity.
So, anything that's been stuck,anything that you haven't been
able to maybe accomplish or getyour hands on, or maybe you did
have to do a lot and you need tolike, recalibrate and get

(05:19):
organized.
And, of course, it's the firstday of school for a lot of
people.
This today, or this week, oreven next week, this is that
time where we start a cycle andthat's what's happening here
with this absolutely lovelyenergy, and it's a water trine

(05:40):
as well.
Today we have Pisces energy, wehave cancer energy, we have a
lot of this watery, fluid,transformational energy that
allows us to ebb and flow.
It allows us to dream ourdestiny into being and allows us

(06:04):
to really, slowly and assuredly, take that forward motion.
Take those gentle, lovingaction steps, take those bigger
thoughts and bigger plans andbigger dreams opportunity and we

(06:27):
have a great chance to becomethe version of.
So if you're looking to co-op,you need someone to cooperate.

(07:00):
Now is the time to be bothhelpful, but also if you're
needing to ask for for help,this is where you might find
other people to be morecooperative and we have a little
bit more time in the Lionsgatewindow.
The big portal is complete, butI really do feel that the

(07:25):
Lionsgate continues through that1-8 on the 18th, through the
degrees of Leo that were werewere energizing through the end
of Leo season before we come tothat really loving, wonderful
new moon in Virgo that'shappening on the 23rd.

(07:48):
So if we finish out Leo seasonin this week and part of next
week, this allows us to takethat energy, the activations,

(08:13):
the downloads, the Aqu to be incancer right and it is a very
loving, compassionate and um, Ijust definitely got that as a
download as I was visiting KuanYin yesterday.
I want to invite you to be moregentle with yourself, more

(08:36):
compassionate with yourself,more compassionate with others,
but also in that devotional way,devote yourself to your choices
and the choices that are goingto make your life more sacred.
The choices that are going tomake your life more sacred, the
choices that are going to makeyour life more beneficial to you

(08:57):
.
Take the action, but take itwith love, take it with devotion
.
Have those heartfeltcommunication that you need to
make the transformation.
Tell the people around you yourdreams.
Tell the people around you howyou want to co-create with them.

(09:22):
Tell yourself and work withyour soul and your guides.
Your guides need permission todo more than just put a buffet
of things in front of you.
So it's a good time toliterally open up to asking to
be guided and to be inco-creation with your team and

(09:47):
spirit.
And it's a good time to reallystart that new thing.
And even if it's just planningto start that new thing and you
start it with a new moon inVirgo because, as that Virgo
moon happens, you'll actuallyhave two Virgo new moons in a

(10:07):
row.
You'll have one in August andone in September, the second
being a partial solar eclipse.
So this begins, in so many ways, once we got through the
illuminating Aquarian moon.
Now we're actually gettingprepared for eclipse season, and

(10:30):
so this is that sweet spot.
Technically we're in eclipseseason because we're past the
Aquarian full moon, but we stillfeel the full moon, we still
feel the Lion's Gate, activation, energy and the embedding of
the new version of you, theembedding of the courage to take

(10:56):
action on your dreams anddesires, the motivation and,
with Mercury being out ofretrograde and this water trine,
the ability to see clearly, theability to move and act clearly
, the ability to create.

(11:18):
I look at all this and I see itlike you're in the womb of
creation and it's a beautifultime for commitment, it's a
beautiful time for ceremony,it's a beautiful time for
dedication and, of course, beinghere has allowed me to be even

(11:42):
more in touch with my soul andmy spirit and clear on my
offerings.
As some of you may know, I'vebeen transitioning to this
deeper dive journey work andthis deeper dive shamanism, and
I've been doing more with thesealmost two hour coaching.

(12:07):
I'm having results.
I'm having the work that I'mdoing has.
My numerology is on 11 and Ireally look at it as this amp
has gone to 11, right.
The work that I'm doing is moreprofound than I've ever done

(12:31):
and it feels more meaningful,and I think that's true for so
many people here.
It is what we came here to do.
It's the time to be having theseexpressions of your deepest
soul work and if you feel called, I want to work with you.

(12:54):
I want to help you be ready forthat absolute quantum leap.
I'm seeing it in every client Iam working with right now,
making massive, ridiculouslyeasy but transformative power

(13:15):
moves in their lives.
And why I say that is betweenthe combination of the
modalities that I use and thework that we're doing.
We overcome limiting beliefsand we set things in motion and
we're designing the destiny andpeople are able to just go

(13:43):
through limiting experiences orblocks that have been keeping
them held back and they'reexpanding the expansion.
I'm feeling, the expansion thatthe people around me are
feeling.
The work right now is to expandto your soul mission, to expand

(14:05):
to the flow and to be livinglife in ease and joy and
celebration, and I'm not sayingthat life doesn't happen like my
car was needing repairs acouple of weeks ago and I was
needing to be staying stillwhile my car was getting worked

(14:26):
on, and and that gave me a placeto take a pause.
So so things happen, and myencouragement to you is, when
something seems like it'shappening, switch to it's from
it's happening to you to it'shappening for you.
What is being called?

(14:47):
Is there a change that's beingasked of you?
One of my clients was made.
Their work didn't manifest,their contract was canceled, and

(15:16):
this allowed them to completelyrefigure how they were going to
make their lifestyle.
It changed how they were ableto create their life very
intentionally, their life veryintentionally, and in less than
two weeks, the new version ofthem was collapsed and created,
and now everything is actuallyhow they wanted it to be.
And so sometimes something istaken away from us to show us or

(15:41):
make the jump, make the leapreally quickly, really
miraculously.
So I'm just wanting you to, I'minviting you.
I don't want or need anythingfrom you, but I'm inviting you
to look at if there is any stuckenergy, especially as Mercury

(16:03):
is going direct this week and asthings are gaining momentum, as
we're not in the deepest partof eclipse season and we're not
in the heightened portion of thefull moon and the 8-8 portal,
before we get into the 9-9,before we get into the 9-9,

(16:25):
before we get into the eclipsecycle.
My encouragement here for youis to dive deep into what is
being asked of you and what areyou asking of you.
Are we connecting to ourhighest self?
Are we connecting to oursaboteur?
And if there is that saboteur,right now is when we want to say

(16:49):
thank you for being here, butI'm going to set you free so I
can be free.
I'm going to connect instead tomy highest frequency.
I'm going to connect andrecalibrate to the version of me
, that is, of the frequency thatalready has this devotion, that

(17:10):
is already committed more to mylove, more to my compassion,
more to my desire, more to mydream than I am, to my failure,
my lack, my worry, my punishmentprograms, and we can deep dive

(17:38):
into that together if this issomething you're interested in.
So my invitation right now is tohop on a call with me, a
one-on-one call with me, andlet's design your destiny.
I have a program it's the bestthing I've ever created to work
one-on-one with me.
As well as some individualceremony, there's some bonuses

(18:03):
to do it this week, because nowis the time and the time is now
and if this is calling to you,please, my invitation is don't
wait.
I only have room for like fivemore people in this program.
We've had some people alreadyjump in and I only have so much

(18:29):
time myself and I want to reallycommit to the people as they're
committing to themselves.
So, if it's your time whetherit's working with me and that's
the invitation work with me andthat's the invitation.
Work with me and deeply committo design your destiny and to
live a magical life, and to dothat ceremoniously, to do it

(18:49):
magically, to quantum leap yourexperience.
Reach out, let's have a phonecall.
If this is just the time whereyou're listening to this and
it's time for you to do this onyour own, my invitation is to be

(19:10):
committed and the invitation isto promise yourself and make
and transcend the uncertainty.
Certainty is going to be keyhere.
Transcend the past because,with all the planets changing

(19:35):
direction, with everything thathas happened in the last eight
months and four or five years,really, this is the only time in
history you're going to havethis absolutely grace-filled
opportunity for amazing change,and it's not simple, but it is

(20:05):
absolutely doable to change andgrow and connect and have that
be a super easy.
I'm saying easy, simple.
Let me restate that it isabsolutely possible, using very

(20:25):
tangible, easy steps, to takemassive, miracle quantum leaps.
Right now there's a gracetimeline available and, if you
are ready to hop on that, themagic train, the magic carpet
ride, is happening this week.

(20:49):
I have been in love every time.
I look at what's happening inthe sky.
Right now I am in love and so Ilove you and I invite you to
have a magical week and toreally look deep at what is
going to create that magicallife for you.

(21:10):
And if I can be of service toyou, please reach out, because
there are limited spaces and Iwant to be involved in that
quantum jump for you.
So, brightest blessings, livemagically and I will see you
again next Monday.
