In 2024, we find ourselves in an eight numerological year, a year of power, transformation, and infinite possibilities. The number eight corresponds with material success, authority, and the concept of karma – the cyclical nature of cause and effect. In today’s post, we take a look at the triple eight numerology and how it ties in with the Lion’s Gate Portal as well as with Yeshua via gematria.

The Lion’s Gate Portal, which peaks on 8 August (8/8), is a cosmic event that aligns with the star Sirius, and many believe it brings a heightened flow of spiritual energy and downloads. This year, the alignment is even more potent due to the 2024 numerological year of 8. This creates a triple eight numerology, amplifying the energy and potential this portal offers.
Triple Eight Numerology
- Material and Spiritual Power: The number eight symbolises a perfect balance between material and spiritual aspects of life. This year, the influence is tripled, suggesting that seeking this balance might bring exceptional opportunities for growth.
- Manifestation and Abundance: In numerology, eight is linked to the successful manifestation of one’s desires and goals. The energy of the triple eight indicates a powerful period for setting intentions and seeing them come to fruition.
Transformation and Renewal: The cyclical nature of the number eight also relates to endings and new beginnings. This is a time to release what no longer serves us and to embrace new pathways and possibilities.
- Meaning of 888 as an Angel Number: As an angel number, all of the above is indicated. Thus, if you repeatedly encounter this number, examine how these themes are currently playing out in your life.
This triple eight numerology invites us to tap into amplified energy. The Lion’s Gate Portal brings us an opportunity to step into a new reality. Whatever path you’re on, the 888 portal offers powerful transformation energy. Being intentional about using this energy can lead to significant breakthroughs in various aspects of our lives.
Yeshua and the Significance of 888
In Christian mysticism and numerology, the number 888 is significant due to its association with Yeshua (Jesus Christ) through gematria. Gematria is an ancient practice that assigns numerical value to words and names based on their letters. In this system, the Greek name for Yeshua (Ιησούς) equates to the number 888. The number 888 symbolises divine perfection and the infinite nature of Christ.
The number 888 is seen as a symbol of spiritual completeness and the infinite nature of Yeshua the Christ. Unlike the number 666 (the famous ‘Number of the Beast’ from Revelation), associated with imperfection or the antichrist, 888 represents the perfect harmony of the divine.
Syncretising the Numerology of Yeshua with the Lion’s Gate Portal
The Lion’s Gate Portal, which peaks on 8 August (8/8), aligns powerfully with the energy of 888. This alignment is therefore of significance for those on a magical/mystical Christian or Christian witch path. Additionally, Christ is also known as the Lion of Judah, creating further resonance with this portal. This title, referring to the Messiah, underscores his role as a powerful and courageous spiritual leader.
Ritual to Honor Yeshua on the Lion’s Gate Portal
Magical/Metaphysical Christians and Christian Witches can leverage the Lion’s Gate portal for transformation and a deeper connection with Yeshua. If this resonates, you may wish to perform the following ritual that blends traditional Christian elements with mystical practices:
Preparation
- Sacred Space: Create a sacred space for your ritual. This could include Christian iconography and/or symbolism representing the Lion of Judah
- Candles: Use three white candles to represent the Holy Trinity, which can also symbolise the triple eight. You can mark the candles with the cross + the eternity symbol.
Ritual Steps
- Invocation: Begin by invoking the presence of Yeshua. Light each candle while reciting a prayer or invocation that feels sacred to you, such as the Hesychast Jesus prayer: Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me.
- Scripture Reading: Read passages from the Bible that resonate with the themes of transformation, balance, and infinite possibility. Examples include John 1:1-14 or Revelation 5:5, which mentions the Lion of Judah. However, feel free to do your own research and choose the passage(s) that resonate the most with you and your intentions.
- Meditation and Visualisation: Spend a few moments in meditation, visualising the divine presence of the Lion of Judah. Imagine the energy of the Lion’s Gate portal flooded with Christ light and streaming down into your crown chakra, filling your aura.
